I love Phil's reaction: "Because they were great flint-knappers!" Perfection. 😀

Phil's laugh is priceless, and this whole Time Team episode is worth watching, humour, findings, doubts and certainty going topsy turvy, all in that much loved British sense of humour. How can anything go wrong, really, when we have that wit around?

[@markhirstwood4190]

Wrong. The Celts weren't a unified group. Picts had come down from the north and gotten into what would later become Yorkshire and even Lincolnshire, hoping to settle on that good farmland. Other Britons (or Celts), under Vortigern hired the Jutes to come over to drive the Picts back north of Hadrian's Wall. As payment issues change the deal, the Jutes took over, settling at Tyneside, Kent and Hampshire. There's really no way Phill can claim that Leicestershire is 'his land' or 'their land'. It's English land, hence Ængla Land.

[@SECRETORDEROFTHEKNIGHTSTEMPLAR]

[@barnabyaprobert5159]

^ This should be the top comment! LOL!

Yeah Tony has Roman, or at least Italian, stamped in his facial features. I don't think the Celts were typically as tall and broad as Phil though. I expected he would be part Scandinavian.

[@devonseamoor]

@@wickeddelight Haha, yes, you're right. Phil could play a part in a Viking battle on his ship, or while being a pirate with a wooden leg and a parrot on his shoulder. And Tony, yes, he looks great in a Roman toga on a sofa, where a beautiful slave girl holds a bunch of grapes up for him to bite off sweetness.

[@bethbartlett5692]

Celts being a yet to define with DNA description, but known DNA Studies Outcomes give the subject of original English, Welsh, and Irish, their lineage Orgin to *"the Basque".* Thus some refer to this with: *"if the Basque are the orgin of the Celts, then Celts is the correct reference".* I've begun to use Gaelic after these findings were announced. But, the point remains the same focus. If interested, here's a Copy 9f my Comment on this Subject: *Clarification point need:* Celts vs Gaelics and the Orgin of the early English, Welsch, and Irish (Go Irish! My predominant ancestry. 🍀), was found to have been from the post-flood era Basque. "We love our Basque origins!" The tenacious individuals that Julius Caesar even avoided, references of his instructions to Military Officers to avoid the Basque when en route to their destination as, "they are time costing tough opponents that can't easily be put down, it at all". 😁 "Phil Harding" very much has the Tenatious Spirit of his Stock! I'm proud to share a Human Heritage with my cousin "Phil". Tragically the male lines of the more original English have notably been erradicated, replaced by Anglo Saxons. This has been referenced and studies are available on the subject, although to my knowledge they have yet to make a decisive statement on the actual cause(s). It likely has to do with a type of "ethnic cleansing of the male locals" during one of more waves of invasions and their aftermath. (NOTE: One can observe that Academics avoid subjects of such nature "even when evidence is looking them in the eyes".) This is a point that I find quite unscientific, while understanding that the Public responds through Social Minds and they can be excused to a large degree for this point. Be that as it may, History has many cases of Male Ethnic Cleansing, a most lower-minded Thought Trait yet very "Male Alpha Animal Trait" in nature. Overall, when the now findings emerge in the Public (in the past 20 years that seems to take 10 years, but that will not be the case for too much longer. There will be a number of very worthy subjects receiving an emergence of facts for Public awareness, and the Genetics/DNA research, studies, and mapping of data for migrations worldwide is one of these subject points. Frankly, the holdup at present is largely due to "Authentic Academics, those whom follow the "Standards of Science and Research" avoiding the reactions of their counterparts in "Mainstream Academia", those whom hold a 19th Century Theory and its Timeline and Paradigm they wrote, as their Fact Foundation (a bubble that could only burst given time). There's a subject that Academics, Government Officials, and the "ologists" that advocate for the greater Publuc's Psychological Wellbeing that must be considered prior to the related Subjects having a "Full Facts Disclosure" and that's "Cognitive Dissonance", a personal response to information that reflects a very different story in reality than we believed, this having an Emotional Impact on the Whole at varying degrees. Patience and kniwing all will be well, even better that our current use as describe, is my advice for all and that which I apply for myself. ...a Sociologist and History Researcher. Keep a Positive Thought for self and others always, it will serve your greater desires with matching results. (The "Universal Law of Attraction" is Absolute.) Best Wellbeing ...

Fun to hear Phil's DNA...esp maternal line back to the Dordogne region (where prehistoric cave paintings were made).

[@willjohnson353]

The technology has become a lot more accurate since 2007, as well as our understanding of DNA re: early settlement and the almost complete replacement of Neolithic farmers (the stone circle builders) by the incoming Yamnaya steppe descended peoples c. 2500BC. From what we understand as of now, I am not sure it is possible to differentiate Celtic and Anglo-Saxon R1b lines as Bryan Sykes and his team thought back then. Bryan Sykes' team originally assessed Cheddar Man as being U5a, but the more recent Natural History Museum investigation used up to date technology shows he was in fact U5b1 (and so possibly was not a close match to the local schoolteacher as reported at the time!). It would be interesting for Phil to have it redone, maybe using one of the more indepth tests such as FamilyTreeDNA offer for YDNA and mitochondrial DNA lines.

As a local, only 10 miles away or so ... so much of the land was quarried for iron stone. Some significant disruption with 10 feet or so removed, the 3ft or so of ironstone taken and then in filled again. It's why many of the hedges appear elevated above the fields. That makes this kind of site even rarer.

[@SECRETORDEROFTHEKNIGHTSTEMPLAR]

[@black5f]

@@SECRETORDEROFTHEKNIGHTSTEMPLAR Thanks. I think it's really interesting. There is a website called old maps online, you can see a lot of the evidence on these these old free maps that show you stuff from 100's of years ago. Be warned though, they are very interesting! Location of mills and windmills etc. So they would cut in an arc, open cast, cutting into the seam filling in behind, very temporary but very disruptive. My main interest is the little steam engines that used to work all these shallow quarries, but I can't ignore the geology of still exposed seams here and there. I am surrounded by old workings, but the field behind me never was. When it gets ploughed, there is loads and loads of flint nodules? I find it hard to ignore this abundance, makes my mind wander, must have been a go to place to get flint surely? It's all so interesting, who lived here before me etc. So much information to gather.
