[@CompetitiveAudio]

***** I myself appreciate Euro-centric archeology as much as anyone but thought I'd point out that a few of these "injun" sites as you refer to them are over 13,000 years old. For example here in Texas: "Thousands of artifacts dating to between 13,200 and 15,500 years ago were uncovered by researchers led by Michael R. Waters of Texas A&M University. They report the discovery in Friday's edition of the journal Science. The find was located 5 feet below materials left by the well-known Clovis culture, which was once thought to have been the first American settlers around 13,000 years ago. It was "like finding the Holy Grail," Waters said in a telephone interview. To find what appears to be a large open-air campsite "is really gratifying. Lucky and gratifying." The trove of 15,528 artifacts, including chipping debris from working stones and 56 tools such as blades, scrapers and choppers, was found in the Buttermilk Creek complex near Austin." Tool making 13,000 to 15,000 years ago...seems like Archeology to me.

watching these on youtube, in any particular order, gives a different bond to the team as opposed to people who got used to a variation of the team over several years.

[@keeperofthedomus7654]

In the Middle Ages they would have buried items that were used for religious purposes when they became unsuitable for use. My theory is the salt they made was used for blessed salt, and so they couldn’t reuse the lead for profane purposes. I don’t buy that someone hid it for finding later and never came back.

[@annazaman9657]

Why are some pottery shards black and some red?

[@vincerussett7922]

I have worked on firing pottery kilns. The colour of the pottery depends largely on how much oxygen reached the pottery during firing. Lots of air=red; lack of air = grey/brown, and sometimes firing in bonfires instead of kilns (like the famous Dorset Black Burnished ware from Roman times) extra smoke and soot makes the pottery black. Basically, chemically reduced iron in the pottery makes it grey, oxidised iron makes it red. If firing in a kiln, you can control the amount of air getting in by how high you build the fire in the kiln mouth(s).This also affects the colour of glaze: lots of air, red / yellow glaze, little air, green glaze. Post medieval pottery (17th century on) often has added elements in the slip to make colours: cobalt for bright blue, manganese for brown or purple and so on.Hope this helps.

In Southern CA, the Indians were Hunters and Gatherers. They ground acorns with rocks and boulders; went to the seashore for fish, the inland and mountains for game. The Spanish came in 18th and 19th century. We're not talking Roman times. In Northern California, the Indians had more to sustain them and settlements more advanced. The Spanish went to the South and Japanese and Russians came to the North for Whales mostly. The Russians even have a fort remaining in Northern CA. But we are not speaking of the depth of time found in Great Britain.

Carenza. If you're going to insult her intelligence, ability and hard work in getting thru British professional sexism, spell her name right. Hope you don't have female children.

[@eboracum2012]

Did you love the bit where she agreed with 'Susan'? If I'm not mistaken... yes, yes, Susan agreed with Coe-ren-za.

Ugh, those nails. Clip 'em or paint them...gross.

[@agresticumbra]

If you’re speaking of Phil, he’s a classical guitarist, and that’s his picking hand. His other hand has short nails, because that’s his fret hand. If you’re speaking about anyone else, I can’t say, but speaking from personal experience, short nails are harder to clean dirt from than longer nails.

[@hogwashmcturnip8930]

@@agresticumbra Well said. Not only about Phil, but about nails. Short nails seem to harbour filth, whereas longer ones do not. Also if they do you can clean them very easily with a toothpick! Do these parrots never read other comments or learn about the people that they are commentng on?

[@charlesachurch7265]

I think Carenza and Phil should swap accents and clothes for comedy value. Mud,stones and broken pots don't make for interesting tv.

[@omikronweapon]

maybe skip watching tv programs about mud, stones and broken pots then?

Time team got ridiculous basically people started to crack jokes it moored away from the archaeology

[@freomoodfly]

Get over yourself Phil, sickening, condescending Tony yuk. Oh for a Time team with just Stewart, Carenza, Mills and John

[@haroldraby]

Phil and Tony are founding members of TT and for the record, Phil know his stuff and Tony is said to be one of the UK's best actors ( see Blackadder).

[@ianrutherford878]

@@Ana_crusis mind you he's provoked quite a reaction there..I wonder who said T.R . is one of U.K.s best actors and based on what?

[@Ana_crusis]

@@ianrutherford878 Are you English? If so you ought to know him. he's famous for playing Baldrick in Blackadder. He is now Sir Anthony Robinson. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Robinson#Early_career
