After you watch this episode, check out the official commentary video on the Time Team Official KZbin Channel! • Time Team Commentary: ...
When the new owners of a house in Blythburgh in Suffolk explored their potting shed they were shocked to discover a cupboard full of human skulls. Could these remains have something to do with the superb ruins of a medieval priory that has lain hidden for years? The priory fell into disuse before Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries, and may contain the remains of a 7th century Saxon King, Anna. But despite digging several trenches in the back garden, the team struggle to make sense of it all. They are joined by historian Sam Newton.

I live in Suffolk and often drive through Blythburgh but to my shame knew very little about this. Also to my shame I don't take advantage of the history in Suffolk and indeed Norfolk perhaps falling foul of taking for granted of what is on your doorstep. New years resolution for 2022; get out to places like Dunwich, Blythburgh, Sutton Hoo, Framlingham and a visit to Colchester Castle with my camera. Thanks Time Team, absolutely brilliant these are available on KZbin and look forward to the future with Sutton Hoo episode.

Pretty safe to say, yes, previous owner or whomever was digging around, planting stuff and ran across some bones. Instead of tossing them, that person gave them the some semblance of reverence they deserved and put them in a cupboard. Remember in the beginning, the archaeologist in the rainbow shirt (forget his name) said that the previous owner didn't let anyone on the site.

I’ve often thought about some sort of travel exchange. It probably already exists in some form...but on my trips abroad I’ve always wanted to stay longer than the usual 10-12 days but the cost of accommodation doesn’t allow it. If it were possible to exchange residences with someone for a month, I stay in someones home, they stay in mine, we both get a significantly less expensive experience in a different country... maybe I’m being naive

@@markorollo. My lot is small too. My house was built in 1910 but is built out of much older timbers that were reused from a much older building. You can see the they were cut by hand and have old mortise and tendon joints that are not used. The floor joists are reused rafters that still have the birds mouths cut in them from when they were part of an older building. My house is in the middle of an old golf course that I assume used to be a farm? I know for sure before about 1600 it was Native American land. King Philip 🤴 made a deal with the native Americans to acquire what is now Springfield Massachusetts on the east side of the Connecticut River. Love to have the crew over this side of the pond.

@@davidhoward2487 There was a Native American fort just across the CT River from me that was called King Philips Stockade. Most of it is now the grounds off a large park called Forest Park. My parents live right near it. It is a fixture of life for people in the area from childhood to being an adult. They had a elephant and a polar bear there when I was a kid. Latter we used to drag race in the park. Now they have miles of Christmas lights along the roads in the winter. Most people don't think of the wars in 1675 it is so far removed.

Do you ever do follow ups? If I were a landowner I wouldn't want to fill in the trenches, but rather find some archeologists interested in continuing the dig. Obviously it could also be quite lucrative as a tourist site. Although I would assume proclamation of a historical site might mean forced donation to the government, I would hope most people would just want to KNOW... Has this happened in any of your earlier episodes, the continuation of your work?

I know I'm from the USA. That being said, if taking government money for historical sites, it would mean turning over your rights to do what you want with the land and even ownership of it. Also, opening up to archaeologists groups comes having to have some kind of insurance in case of injury. It sucks. I really love these shows and the history of it all. I guess there's only so much they can find out in the "three" days they show us. I suppose it's up to the landowner if it continues. Also, isn't there a law about not being able to keep artifacts found on your land? (Possibly get some sort of compensation for them though, but cannot keep them?)

@@patriciamorton1068 yes agreed, if there's anything I DO know it's that all of these factors will vary, county by county, province by province, country by country, and even year by year across all boards giving enough crazy red tape to drown us all... And like I said Government seizure of historical property or even just unending moratorium of use would be highly probable.. I guess they call it "scheduling" there... I just wonder if anyone that's been on the show throughout the years, when we caught a tiny glimpse, has continued digging. I would love to watch a "10 years later" type of thing and see if someone said, "I'm not plowing my potato field anymore, find the rest of the priory and graveyard and let's see what happens." It's very sad to me that when huge projects like subways or other tunnels reveal ancient archeology, they only stop for a bit and then seem to typically keep grinding away the past because they only have the plan and permits to do what they're doing where and when they're doing it. the propensity seems to be that if you see something like a human skull, hide it and keep going... we can't afford to stall "the project". it's funny how that works. "we don't have time" to find out what happened 5000 years ago, we have a month and a half to get this done... really? really sad. I would just love to see tony and team revisit ANYWHERE they've been where more research has been done, and at a slow steady pace, even if what they found wasn't monumental.

The government (local or central) does not take over archaeological sites in the UK. Even if they wanted to, there are just too many. There was public indignation when the only Roman building left in Scotland was demolished by its owner early in the 18th century, and later when the owner of Shakespeare's mansion in Stratford had it knocked down because he was annoyed by the sightseers coming to his door. Much later in the 19th century we started to get laws preventing destruction of ancient monuments officially recognised as such.

Some of the Time Team Specials revisit sites. A few revisits (not necessarily specials) I can think of are Athelney, Turkdean, and Dinnington. In terms of continued excavation at sites generally, sometimes what's been found during the Time Team dig has been enough for more local archaeologists to secure funding for further investigation, and sometimes they went to sites already being excavated but with a lot more resources to really help advance the understanding of the archaeology there.
