The Saxon Graves | FULL EPISODE | Time Team

Season 2 Episode 5: The team excavate a Saxon burial ground in a Wiltshire village. Join the Time Team for another dig into Britain's history.
#TimeTeam #FullEpisode #Saxon
A building site in the village of Winterboume Gunner, near Salisbury, stands abandoned after previous developments on the surrounding land unearthed evidence of a Saxon burial ground. After working their way through the maze of graves the team discover what seems to be a whole new layer of history in the town.
Time Team is a British TV series following specialists who dig deep to uncover as much as they can about Britain's archaeology and history.

[@thadeousbella4107]

It is a bit unfair that the property owner is normally expected to fund the research, (into the past) that the public benefits from. If someone doesn't have the funds, the research doesn't get done, and they are denied the right to make their home on their own land. This means that only wealthy people are allowed to make their own home. Is this a fair and just system for all? No, its not. Kudos to Time team for helping out and for revealing the mysteries from the past.

[@gloriahanes6490]

In many cases and in many countries the landowner doesn't even own the mineral rights found on the property.

[@manufacturedfracture]

@@gloriahanes6490 as I agree they shouldnt if it's history related. However if a person sold land with a brief case with money that should be his

So who should pay if a speculator wants to increase the value of a property?

[@VincentGroenewold]

Yeah totally unfair if it actually makes him go bankrupt. Imagine the personal stress that causes, telltale sign he wasn’t visible during the dig either... probably lost all interest in it a long time ago. All round a sad thing, it should be a community effort to come up with funds for a site that is so important.

[@erikc1775]

@Scrooge McGruel Holy moly how sexist are you? Do you think they would have cared about the sex of the landowner? Do not men abuse their power? As for your Left/Right rubbish, yea, works great with the hellhole that is the USA. Right = freedom? No wonder those people have the record in school shootings, criminals in prisons, no healthcare and so on... Get your head out of your ass, your idea of the left seems to be some take on communism (which is by the way the best ideology there ever was, however it is also impossible to realize), there are many countries with a left-leaning government, or left-leaning society that has a living standard way above what can be found in for example the US.

[@christydowns783]

I'm all for the preservation of history and historical sites but as far as I'm concerned, if the council wants the site excavated, they or the government should pay for it or allow the site owner to sell it to someone who is prepared to pay. Once again, the owners are going broke because of the council's rules and regulations

[@susansouthard]

Christy Downs the owner shouldn’t have to pay for this stuff, it’s the government that is imposing this on the land owner. Fine, if the government wants to do the dig, let them do the dig, they pay for it, then put the land back to the way it was before the dig and the landowner can move on with their life.

[@lucianon.carvalho6929]

I don't know about UK regulations, but a lawsuit against the government could well be the case, here. Especially because the representative told about graves discovered in the 20's and 50's in the neighbour plots. Sounds like a trap, the government has information about a graveyard buried there and it's just waiting someone to buy the plot to transfer responsibility of digging it. Bad for history and bad for relations with people.

[@j.l.thurman2725]

its cruel to put the owner into that situation.

[@EarthIncompatible]

Indeed. I agree that the discovery and preservation of history is important, but not at the expense of ruining living peoples' entire lives. Priorities need to be re-evaluated, or the government needs to allow the land owner to sell the property to someone with the desire and funds to excavate.

I put on time team for the little one (better then cartoons and she loves it) while I talk to my mum. She stops mid sentence and asks, “Is that time team?” According to my mum she was watching this episode while in the early parts of labor with my brother. So this episode is 25 years old. He was born in January 15, 1995. And I was able to look it up, sure enough the episode was released January 15, 1995. She was able to recognize the episode over the phone!

If the government(local or otherwise) wants history preserved they should foot the bill. Or at least let the poor guy sell it to someone who can afford to pay for the process. They should not have allowed him to develop the site at all if they were gonna be this persnickety. Local government for you, screw over the little guy.

I can’t over the fact that, seeing them together, Mick is only 4 years older than Phil and the same age as Tony. People really age differently. The archaeologist who advised that clause be slapped in the owners contract, should be a bit apologetic. So, don’t build on the land until you buy an excavation, don’t sell the land but just let the land sit as a dump. Very nice. Typical local government official. We make the rules but hey, your problem, buyer, not mine. They should not have allowed her to be on TV or humiliated her more. History is great but it’s always the little guy who pays for it. Does the flipping royal family have to live by rules like this too or just if some archaeologist decides they are a contracts advisor?

It almost looks like a map of the burial site from above!

[@Deipnosophist_the_Gastronomer]

I thought I saw some extra detail there, too.

[@LynxSouth]

I don't understand all of the ways this poor landowner was being billed, but has the government changed that insane rule that charges someone for the excavation when ruins are found on their property? That law is perfectly crafted not only to inhibit real estate transactions, but to convince people not to report historical finds, which is a loss to us all. Horribly unfair to make individuals foot the bill for collective societal knowledge in a land where, at some depth or other, almost every place is an archeological site. If the queen/monarch is technically the ultimate 'owner' of the land, why doesn't the Crown put aside funds for this? Did this program help make any improvements in this situation?

[@Dagarvs]

These are complex questions which I am not qualified to answer, but this might help: I have heard that the law has changed, so perhaps land developers are going back to bulldozing graveyards into skiffs. I agree of course there should be a better balance of who is monetarily responsible. Bizarrely, it was Thatcher that deemed land owners be billed for archaeology! You can see at the end, that this did work out more or less for the land owner. TTeam then at least incidentally helped in that. After the credit crunch, TTeam was more or less the leading force in archaeological investigation. Please investigate the internets for more info!

[@LynxSouth]

@@Dagarvs "Going back to bulldozing graveyards into skiffs." That doesn't sound good. I can easily imagine Thatcher being responsible, all in the name of 'smaller government'.

[@dirtypure2023]

I think billing the Crown is perfect. The Monarchy has been around for longer than any individual landowner. The Crown should pay for the preservation of British heritage for sure.

Does anyone know how this all turned out in the end? Is there a house (with services) there now? It's been 20+ years. Maybe a museum purchased the finds/urns so the landowner could recoup part of his losses? I looked through the comments before posting. Please note I'M NOT HERE FOR AN ARGUMENT. Just curious if this was a "happily ever after" or a "this ends the tragic story" situation. Judging by that councilwoman's body language and hedged responses to Tony's questions, I wonder if the landowner's "phew" at the end of the episode was premature.

[@clydecessna737]

Classic example of our national sclerosis. These impasses are destroying the life force of the country. We have evolved unlimited number of ways of stopping economic activity and very few mechanisms for increasing it. Frankly it takes an act of courage for the state to allow any development to take place at all as it is bound to upset somebody. This is why English towns are rather small, grim, identical and depressingly dull to live in. We end up creating a museum of a past nation rather than a new one. In this case there is no pressing need for archeological inquiry so one might put a concrete pad over the whole damn space to protect the past and build above it.

Developer couldn't afford to remove the garbage heaps? Sounds underfunded from the start.

Very Interesting stories and perspectives what took place between the buyer and seller. I believe every one knew of the posible burals and bought the land anyway. But I feel bad for the guy but I think things are just not adding up right and who knew what, before the purchase and I think it is important to ask just how he knew that the land was avalable to buy and why is a interesting question. So more complicated than a 3 day dig anyway.

Emptor Caveat is still the rule of law in most cases. When purchasing a property, the buyer has the responsibility to research the title for easements and particulars in the local land laws. Even HOA's in the USA have crazy rules that govern the property that are part of the deed and cannot be removed.

You could always download a free adblocker from your app store to get rid of ads. I Use Adblock Plus and haven't seen a KZbin ad in years. I've heard you can also advance through to the end of the program and then restart it to get rid of ads.

I didn't get any. Some time ago, I went into my ad preferences and unchecked every single box. It took a fair amount of time and was deeply satisfying. Now I may get one or two at the very beginning and I hit Skip Ads as soon as it's possible. I also go into the ads that show up between suggestions on my feed and say Hide Ad, and mark it either Irrelevant or Repetitive.

Here's a tip for you. Start the clip and then drag the timeline to the end. Then just replay the clip and all commercials will get removed.

So… who paid for the other blocks to be excavated?..why just him in the middle?

The Bronze Age monuments in this episode were soon declared "scheduled" by the government.
