[@bethannyallain5395]

Helen's search for the sacarphagus of the elderly lady.

[@bjdefilippo447]

I particularly enjoyed the Oregon dig in the U.S. and the evidence of early humans there, and the hominid evidence in Zambia.

[@lonestarbellepk]

Anything Anglo-Saxon finds of that era. Also it would be nice to see Scandinavian excavations. Being in the USA I skip excavations done here and are more interested on European archeology. Thanks for all the information you bring us in Time Team.

[@Khumry]

london was new troy not roman..

[@anthonyanderson2880]

Congratulations Professor Carenza Lewis, well deserved.

[@TheFeed-pp9mf]

My first remote love...

[@RobBoudreau]

Always wonderful seeing Dani's smiling enthusiasm. Very well done Dani. John Gator, I have 3 words for you: You are Legend. I can think of many, many major finds you and your team have done that Time Team fans are aware of, Turkdean, Beachy's Barn, Brancaster, on and on..., capped by the Ness. A *very* impressive list. Yep, Legend. Congratulations Carenza! Well earned, well deserved!

[@Jo_Kuiper]

I agree 100% with that.

[@mcoates111]

I loved seeing Helen lay her hand on the old theater's boards and just pause, as if she were absorbing the energy. I could feel her emotion. ❤

[@rmur4820]

TimeTeam/Dani, thank you for continuing to bring history to the world and from the world. I love your news presentations. I am American and finding your TimeTeam show on KZbin pulled me through the pandemic. I wish you all the best and look forward to the next dig and news reports.

[@LanceCSTCuddy]

I never realized how much I needed a show like this. Brilliant work!

[@Tia-Louisa]

Loving the modern Time Team and how it incorporates other countries! Glad to see Helen Geake still on it!!!

[@cortrichards8179]

Excellent as always. Greetings from Minnesota, USA. Very pleased to see Professor Carenza Lewis get that award. It is well deserved. Thank you for another amazing tour of the latest archaeological discoveries.

[@janvafa9959]

Love these! Reminds me of browsing articles in the encyclopedia as a child… long before computers!

[@maggiemaloney8599]

Thank you so much for this wonderful journey through history. Your work is invaluable to human self-discovery.

[@ne0n1880]

Thank you everyone at Time Team.

[@auntiewin1134]

John! Loved you on time team. Love the Ness and never knew it was your work that brought it to light

[@maudieg8459]

This is just terrific! Wonderful to learn about all the archeological work going on around the world. The discoveries of much earlier human activity, especially that predating modern humans, is truly eye-opening. These news bulletins with Dani are very valuable, golden opportunities for learning. Thank you!

[@sharimullinax3206]

Thanks for giving us the update from Oregon, USA. Congratulations, Prof Lewis.

[@Tracysbrokenwing]

Congratulations carissa!!❤🤗

[@patablanche5075]

Great to see Dr Carenza Lewis ❤

[@scribbleknit]

This was an extremely interesting overview. I am so appreciative of Time Team now and Time Team classic. Congratulations on a successful 2023 and looking forward to 2024.

[@kingpinboogie]

What a wonderful find! Well done!

[@nettejakobs2501]

Please keep this updates coming. I love to hear and see more from the sites after the digs. Greetings from Denmark 😊

[@valswhitewolf6611]

you are so bright and shiny and you bring so much to archeology and the show and have been a lover of time team and I hope they never lose you because you the love of archeology that's outstanding!

[@toniomalley5661]

Happy new year everyone looking forward to all the great discoveries in 24

[@rrl4245]

Fascinating video. Thanks for this.

[@Davlavi]

Great compilation thanks.

[@MsINSANE2]

Thank you so much for making all of this information available. I learn a great deal every time I watch you.

[@Ivehadenuff]

Love and congratulations to Carenza! She got me hooked on Time Team.

[@iangoddi]

Time Team is Awesome!

[@alanatolstad4824]

I enjoy these visual updates.

[@pambowers8890]

As always..Great Job Time Team..thanks!!

[@JohnMacFergus-oz5cp]

Congratulations Carenza for getting recognized for the very important work that you have done! We are all very happy for you! Way to go Time Team!

[@LisaPalko-p2r]

I love time team ,I've watched for years on KZbin. Really looking forward to seeing more of you guys. ❤❤

[@AvaT42]

I look forward to seeing more of the boards of the bard. It is so exciting the boards are what Shakespeare would have acted on in an actual theatre of today.

[@sarahwatts7152]

I love these kinds of updates!

[@nickharmer3049]

Fantastic work. Thank you. Bless 👊

[@AlphaGatorDCS]

Congratulations Carenza!

[@megwolff58]

Wonderful to catch up on the Piercebridge dig! I have only just re-watched that episode.

[@kongrufus1]

Probably the best way to spend a good hour (besides horizontally) I've found yet! Great work Time Team. Please do continue.

[@jenconnolly37]

I love that you guys are informing us on archaeological discoveries in other places. I love the UK based projects but it's nice to know about things elsewhere. Thank you for all you do!

[@Julian_Wang-pai]

A wonderful watch - fascinating glimpses of breakthrough discoveries seemingly throughout Human history and even beyond(!). Not least though: the really good, engaging presentation. Well done and thank you 😊

[@marcpaule6533]

Congratulations corenza well deserved.as a fan from day one WALKING the fields LOL. And coming across you on youtube. Hears to many more years. I just wish i had so.e spare money to contribute to further digs.Keep on Digging and Finding loads of Historical pieces.

[@JohnMacFergus-oz5cp]

Wow, what a year! Great episode too , thanks to all at Time Team!

[@jonathaneffemey944]

Thanks so much for posting.

[@marjane4344]

I adore the digs especially. when Helen asks about a feature of a site. I did a dig while in college 2 late spring into summer. A huge highlight in my early years. Discoveries of arrowheads , spear points (tangs) etc. Just a few of the finds. I am of indigenous roots. I am thrilled to see the displayed and chronological items.

[@NinaPriestley]

Happy to see archaeological updates!

[@MCML50]

It is really nice to see the old Time Timers again like John Gater, Helen Geake, and of kors the one and only Sir Tony. I like this but I miss Phil.👍👍

[@annjelley5363]

Hello from beautiful East Devon😊

[@LM-pm2ir]

Thanks!

[@TimeTeamOfficial]

Thank you!

[@TheHoveHeretic]

Phenomenal update folks ..... thank you SO much. 👍 My favourites are alwys "prehistory" ..... but whatever epoch a dig covers (particularly love it when older stuff surprises everyone), they never fail to capture my interest. Having TimeTeam back in such a magnificent achievement and seeing the increased international aspect (plus of course so many comments from fellow viewers worldwide) is a wonderful antidote to the woes of modern life. I'd love to see some N.American content, especially with the inimitable Milo Rossi (of the YT parish) .... and many congratulations to Prof Carenza Lewis on her thoroughly well earned award.

[@madst7521]

Great episode! Informative, engaging and very enjoyable to watch.

[@kariannecrysler640]

I would love to hear more from the Fertile Crescent regions since their seismic activity has unearthed new discoveries at sites. Turkey took a huge hit in December 2022 & had such devastation, it would be nice to see the positives that have come out of tragedy.

[@ladymae2007]

Love this TT News feature!!

[@debbralehrman5957]

Thanks👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@Lerie2010able]

I grew up at Moses Gate so the Rock Hall restoration is great news, congratulations to Carenza, I remember her as a very young woman on Time Team. It's one programme that my father and I really enjoyed watching together. Thanks

[@thomasevans5467]

Doctor Carenza Lewis really is an un sung hero of contemporary archeological excavation techniques when applied to inhabited sites where residents add to the workforce. It is such a good idea to involve people in their own towns history it seems so obvious but she has pioneered the technique in the last fifteen to twenty years basically since time team stopped airing. I again cannot think of a better person to give a lifetime achievement award\s to other than Dr. Lewis. Cheers three times and oh so many happy returns heading into the future.

[@larryshaw-k5m]

Absolutely my favorite show for years ❤ I even put on reruns to sleep to and sometimes wake up so I can see what they are talking about 😊they take me out of my own time and let me be some where else for awhile educators and entertaining I've even tried t🎉flint nap 😅rock on Phil

[@MrWompz]

The preservation of that sword is astounding. It's also really neat to hear about such ancient archaeology near where I grew up in the PNW of the US. Also congratulations of Kenza for your achievement, it's incredible neat to witness your mastery on Time Team.

[@bardo0007]

Carenza and the team are amazing people, thank you for giving us a history lesson

[@SafeTrax1]

Congrats to Carenza! She looked so happy.

[@harriethowell5444]

I wish that Dani would be the narrator on some of the new TIme Team episodes. She is a gem. Use hee more!❤

[@seanpaula8924]

I like this! Thanks Time Team

[@alanmcmillan6969]

I look forward to seeing what you have to show us!

[@samanthaharr9927]

Dani is a fantastic speaker! really drew in my attention! A good presenter is what the new TT launch has needed!

[@dreamchasergarage690]

Just wish I could give more than one like. Cheers :)

[@AaSa-uq9ye]

Unfortunately I missed this episode. It's one of the best in this series 👍

[@tectoramia-sz1lu]

Wow, I'd forgotten how gorgeous Philippa Walton is. If I'm allowed to say that.

[@Nuts-Bolts]

Regarding the bronze sword. It would be interesting to know if they have published an analysis of the surrounding soil (pH, etc.) which would help explain the remarkable lack of corrosion.

[@cliffordcards3238]

Maybe it was wrapped in much leather and cloth that has slowly disintegrated over the years.

[@JohnMacFergus-oz5cp]

Love Time Team in any shape or form. Cheers to the whole gang. Sure there are some really old and dusty episodes out there, but hey they will all give you a few laughs! God save the King!

[@noonehere1793]

I love the concept of a news update about recent archaeology! It fills the gaps the news of the day from various sources leaves out, well done.👍👍

[@nthsum5509]

I live in Nashville Tennessee US. Between Nashville and Memphis is one of the largest concentrations of Clovis and Mississippian culture sites in the US. It's so frustrating to me, because our state should be crawling with archaeologists. There's probably worked flint around every natural spring and cave in the area, but there's surprisingly little archaeological work going on relative to the scope of known occupation. With Nashville booming, I fear that we could lose a ton of archaeological sites due to development, in the blink of an eye.

The technology involved with unraveling those Vesuvius scrolls is amazing!

Love this ❤

A. Mixing liquids in a container, like an unattached blender blade B game piece, like dice, C. Something for slipping between straws or strings in basket or cloth weaving process, B. A tool for decorating pottery

[@thesilentfuzz]

Wow!!

[@HelensHistoryHunting2023]

Please come to Eccles in Kent. Before developers ride roughshod over two roman sites (that haven't been seen since the 70s), I've found evidence for iron working beside both sites. There's also an iron age ring ditch, bronze age barrow and I believe, just from bimbling on fields that there is something Anglo Saxon too. (I have one rather sad looking bit of pot but I'm almost certain its of that time). If all else fail's, I'm sure I've found the de Grey manor house that was beside the Carmelite Friary at Aylesford. The de Greys are ancestors of mine, so I've had a keen interest in the fact that at least three were buried at the friary. I then read that the house and lands were given to the friars. I found descriptions of the house grounds and jumped onto LiDAR, with a vague idea of position. Anyway, been a TT fan since childhood (in my 50s now) and I think you honed my investigative braincells. Please consider us, we really want to save our rich history.

[@greendragonreprised6885]

Could you cover the discovery of an entire city in the Eastern Ecuadorian part of the Amazon. It sounds like it used LIDAR which has previously been discussed on Time Team. Maybe get an expert in the Technology to explain it.

[@micheleheddane3804]

I was watching digging for Britain last week, they were digging where Henry v built his war ships . The archeologist said it had “never” been investigated before, well Time Team DID in 1999. I would be enraged

[@Pesmog]

I thought the same when I watched it.

[@elizabethclark394]

The Ness of Brodgar and Ring of Brodgar for me thanks

[@BeyondtheHiggs]

I love how archaeology shows us that humans haven't really changed. People have always loved jewelry, wanted comfortable shoes, had weapons, liked fashion, have always been social, and generally our ancestors going back literally tens of thousands of years weren't that different from us now.

[@larryshaw-k5m]

By the way Alice makes me swoon ❤❤❤

[@matthewring8301]

That piece of antler reminds me of a scrap piece used in modern drilling so that you can drill all the way through without damaging the platform underneath or the drill bit.

[@ceeej1290]

top content you guys deserve awards for this channel it makes all other history channels look like theyre stuck in the stone age, silly flintknappers need to take note 😁😁😁

[@LilyoftheValeyrising]

44:43 It would be very interesting to see an analysis of no-man’s land in France. Obviously not where it’s contaminated with toxic chemicals, but somewhere where it would represent the terrible fighting there and honor the dead.

[@BenSHammonds]

Helloooooo!! Dani, wonderful program, always enjoy such news. Wasnt Kings Lynn where King John ate too many eels and became sick, just before loosing the jewels in the Wash? :) Those polished stone balls are somewhat like projectiles used in a sling, much later, but if early man happened to use a sling, which due to being organic would not survive to this day probably, then they could be projectiles. BTW Dani, I sure like how you say Kentucky :D

[@lostsierraforrest5542]

My sincerest congratulations to Carenza for being awarded the John Coles Landscape Archaeology Medal. But... for the life of me I can't make out what the design of the shapes is supposed to convey. I thought I knew some armchair archaeology, but I'm stumped. Please, Time Team Official, what do those squiggly shapes on the medal represent?

[@pat8988]

Given KZbin’s inane content restrictions, I am really surprised that the well endowed chalk figure is not blurred out (3:54).

[@davidbrock2450]

I'd love to see some ore detailed information on "Lance Of Meadows" The Viking settlement that lasted for only lasted I think for 3 yrs before being abandoned. I believe it was settled by "Eric The Red" and around 500 yrs before Columbus came to the Americas.

[@marionjohansson4235]

I have actually commented on this before. As children in Rhodesia I can remember playing Jacks. Now, the Jack was made of metal but the shape is the same. With colours or etchings on the feet, it could be used to gamble, strategy games, even fortune telling. Just a thought. 😃

[@allisondavidson677]

I think the clay objects found at Orkney were used for cooking. They are very similar to the Poverty Point objects found at the Poverty Point site in Louisiana, US. The multiple sides helped to regulate the temperature of the earthen ovens.

[@lonestarbellepk]

I hadn't heard of Poverty Point Lousiana finds.

[@ledacedar6253]

Awesome! Sadly the artists renditions don’t come close to compare with your former Artist extroidinaire! He was exceptional in every way given what he survived!

[@juspapa718]

Isn’t Mike Russell a PhD? Would be nice for TT to show their contributors’ degrees they worked hard to earn. Also considering the amount Dr Russell contributed to TT 1.0. The guy iz so intelligent & learned yet he can explain what iz goin on in terms I can understand: Picket’s Farm…..a barrow looks like a comic kneecap in the landscape then drew a comic kneecap ….I love it

[@chrischatfield2935]

I thought you were going to tell us they've found the bones of oompa lumpa's😂😂

[@robertarevalo5137]

Hey this is Robert... I'm an antique dealer in Northern California... I'm all in...

[@sempringham3868]

This is a wonderful idea. Thank you for the review of 2023. Although I cannot afford to join Patreon, I do wish Time Team would excavate the monastery in Sempringham, near Pointon in Lincolnshire. It was founded by St. Gilbert and the Gilbertines, the only completely English religious order, and is the burial place of the last Princess of Wales who was actually Welsh! Henry VIII destroyed it, and the remains are being dissolved by time and plows.
