I am from Canada ,I believe that in order to understand my country, you need to understand the two european empires that created it... the 🇬🇧 and 🇫🇷. Our local provincial public tv station aired only 3 or 4 seasons of TT, now I can watch them all!!!! THANK YOU for taking the time to do this. I will have this enjoyment for a long while.

When I first saw these burials, I was thinking, maybe this is like some similar things around the world, where, when a man died, his wife, whether she died, naturally, or not, was buried with him, and even some of his servants. But then the two men in the baby made me think maybe they died at the same time or close together of an illness, and that could’ve happened to everyone in that area.

Why do historians assume that the Anglo-Saxons had to be converted to Christianity by missionaries sent out by the Pope? The current DNA of the British Isles, even in the most Saxon part of England, is mostly Celtic. The Saxons migrated more than they invaded. They did not fully displace the native Celts. The Celts of Roman Britain were Christian before the Romans left. So the Saxons' first exposure to Christianity came from the British Celts.
@aylbdrmadison10516 жыл бұрын
Exposure to something, and being forced to convert to it, are two drastically different things. No one suddenly changes their entire spiritual belief system just because they see someone else who has a different one, that's just silly, lols.

I enjoy history and have been shown much through TIME TEAM, even as an American. I just don't understand one thing: the host, Tony Robinson, is now Sir Tony. Yet those who were on their hands and knees digging for the finds, as well as many being professors, weren't likewise recognized. Seems rather backwards and shortsighted for folks like Dr. Harding and those who have passed on.
@marilyncuaron32222 жыл бұрын
Sir Tony is also active in politics, children's books and TV, and raising awareness of the historical legacy Britain possesses. He is actively involved in various charities, particularly Alzheimers and dementia. Time Team was just one part of his contribution to TV education and entertainment. And he did a lot more work on TT behind the scenes that the viewers never saw. He may annoy some of you, but Her Majesty and I think he's terrific.
@loris4665 жыл бұрын
Notice how many times Tony asks, "but how do you know?" I realize his role was to question and get the archaeologists to explain things to the audience, but his skepticism sometimes really wears on me.

The short answer may be the matters of written records, and archeology that manages to survive in the ground... Both of those are stronger during the (temporary) Roman occupation, and once again when the Normans arrive. So we are more in the dark about the years 400 to 1000 CE, but they don't often say 'Dark Ages' on the show. Anglo-Saxon period: If you pull up a map of where the Angles, and Saxons (and Jutes) lived (Denmark-ish), you can better imagine them noticing the vacuum created as the Romans retreated. And turning from raiders to settlers. The Angles and Saxons both established significant kingdoms along the East coast of Britannia. The Britons remained, but it seems it is the Arrival of new outsiders that generates the names of periods in history. Optional bits: 'England' is Land of the Angles (Angleterre, in French!); Essex, Wessex, Sussex and Middlesex... the sex is 'Saxons,' lands east, west, south and middle. And the Normans were actually Norsemen/Vikings recently arrived in 'France.' See "The siege of Paris of 885-886."
