Well, another outstanding and rewarding episode, and presented by the equally outstanding and brilliant Prof Alice Roberts. I feel some genuine regret that I am retired to the far side of the planet, but through the internet I can remain fully informed regarding the important archeological finds, and keep up to date with the latest research, with the consequent adjustments to our understanding of pre-history Britain. Amusingly, I recall one or two of these discoveries being made, as one of my past colleagues and ardent archeologist would hurtle into my rooms, excited to share the news of the absolute latest find from some very muddy dig :) We are very fortunate indeed that this fabulous series continues to be uploaded to KZbin - thank you !!!!!!!

@@einsam_aber_frei Well, indeed. A young post-grad I know has been gaining experience working in a number of digs, both in NZ and at various Islands. However, NZ is a young country, and only settled by Europeans a few centuries ago. The Maori - indigenous or not depending on one`s point of view, were, fundamentally a hunter -gatherer society utilizing stone tools, but with no written language and timber construction of dwellings etc. Consequently archeology is a bit then, as I understand it, but there are, undoubtedly artifacts which continue to be found, and there are a number of outstanding Maori historians whose deep knowledge of their culture is absolutely vital for greater understanding and appreciation :)

The work put into making that walkway is huge. People working together, having time and foodstuffs so they could take the days and hours from hunting and herding, and growing food to down tools and work felling and tiding the stakes, shaping the points and then driving them into the mud. That done they had to create the walking surface! The effort equivalent to Stonehenge! I’d be fascinated if one of the Archeologists could do a video on how all this was done and how long it took. How much upkeep had to be done?

Burying the bodies in peat is no explanation of peculiar assembling. If the buried bones were, indeed, in a tightly flexed position, then there is an enormous problem with why they were, in fact, mixed up. Assuming the archaeological crew are not the ones who scrambled the bones around, then interments were constructed - by the people who buried the bones, to appear as single skeletons, laid in an individual grave. That raises a lot of questions. I have worked at interment sites where burials were taking place more rapidly than previous interments decaying, and the earlier fragments were simply dropped into the grave pit after the new occupant was placed and any ceremony conducted. The older bones, sometimes still partially articulated, were dropped into the grave pit fill. That can create puzzles as you try to reassemble skeletons - _and_ serious acculturation problems for descendants monitoring the work encounter a reality their oral histories have never included. This is an entirely different class of strange, even compared to some Tibetan customs, or Native American platform burials employed by some Rocky Mountain societies. The mussel shells may also have been an instrument like a rattle, which were widely used in prehistory all over the globe. The Iron Age posts might, in addition, or in addition to "making a statement", have marked a safe path through a wet land, even when the track submerged by flooding. It is a curious reality of archaeology that nearly all actions that people take, individually or collectively, "make sense" in several different dimensions, often ritually, socially, and economically, all at one time. The inclusion of "grave goods" in a burial, in addition to sentimentally sending gear and valuables along to the afterlife with the dead, also maintains or enhances the economic value of examples remaining above ground, regardless of whether we are finding tools, weapons, decorative items, or even evidence of storeable foods.

@maryanneslater9675 9 ай бұрын

The burial in peat to stop decomposition suggests that the body was kept on display for a time. It's possible bits went missing over time, so I wonder if the remains were arranged in a way that gave persons a complete skeleton for the afterlife, even if two or three spirits had to share it.

@theeddorian 9 ай бұрын

@@maryanneslater9675 There is some strong evidence that around that time period, (Chalcolithic, Bronze Age, and perhaps even the later Neolithic) there was a widespread interest in the dead, and possibly in "consulting" them. I would like to know if there is any temporal span between the various parts assembled as a skeleton. Another possibility is that the various bodies were all thought to contain the same soul. There was a widespread belief in transmigration or reincarnation that followed the Indo-European/Iranian spread. Hindu beliefs (where Buddhism arose) still include it. When your child starts talking about remembering brown eggs from when she was a little boy, or notices and properly identifies the odor of horses shortly before she even sees one for the first time, you start to wonder how they might have thought about that 5,000 years ago.

@esmeralda3858 9 ай бұрын

@@maryanneslater9675 I wondered something similar. Could it be that after a natural disaster, battle or other event in which people's body parts were separated, survivors put them back together to form a complete skeleton, even if there was no certainty the bones belonged together? It could have been an attempt to restore dignity to the dead.

The really incredible part is that the bronze age people had an understanding of mummification caused by peat bogs? They worked this out. That meant they understood how long a body should /could be in the bog, one has to ask are there other bodies still in the bogs, and how else would they have used the bogs. To preserve food??? Timber? Early mankind were thinkers. Yet another simply fascinating episode.

Right? Especially the one with two different upper and lower sets of teeth. So it's not like they cut someone's head off and put it on another body, it's a whole other jaw.

@faithlesshound5621 3 ай бұрын

Most animals just leave their dead lying for other animals to consume. Mesolithic humans often did that in a special place, while others seem to have buried their dead quickly. Maybe there was a stage when bodies were left out for a while and buried later? Others let them become skeletons and then buried the bones together. Here it looks as if bodies were buried whole, but they were actually composite: that's hard to explain.

@christineg8151 3 ай бұрын

I'm not sure that this is the reason since I haven't seen the excavation reports, but if you have a structure that can block the rain, even if not entirely, like a roof or a wooden walkway, the water running off the edge of the thing blocking the water causes erosion differences between the covered and no-covered areas. It's one way we can identify the footprint of wooden houses even if all the wood has rotted away. You can also get what's called a "living floor" caused by bunches of people walking directly on the ground over and over again, packing the earth as they go. Sort of like the path that gets worn through the grass when people decide not to walk on the sidewalks. The dirt there really is a different texture/consistency from the dirt off the "path". Between the two, you'd be able to see the presence or absence of a walkway pretty clearly.

When you put a post into the ground with a flat end it is necessary to dig the hole, but a pointed end must surely imply that they were hammered into the ground.???? Where is the hammer or for that matter any hammer, they did knives, spears and other tools, but I have not seen any hammers...where are they????

the Cara silver and gold coins have been found in Wales , Caratacus was the Cymric Chieftain and King Caradoc, certainly we have so many place names with his name and family around Llyswyrnwy and Pentre Meurig also at Twyn Caradoc and Caer Caradoc above Brynna , he in our History that was handed down, was Known to the Romans , we know there were Large Battles with the Romans around this area, because there are so many Roman Forts and Roman burials here, Caer Caradoc has one of the Largest Bronze Age Burials in Britain and there are literally within 10 miles more than twenty Hillforts, many were still in use when the Saxons entered in the 6th Century and left pretty well soon after coming back over the next 300 Years for Battles they lost. Wales is a No No for archaeologists, why because there are answers here that the English establishment and the British Museum aka English Heritage will not want to hear and see. Roman and Etruscan pottery has been found in South Wales the Greeks and later Romans were trading here from at least 800 BC. Celts also travelled to the European Mainland and Brythonic Celts were with the Etruscans in the Punic Wars, the Etruscan city of Caeri like Fiesole has many Celtic Burials. We were as the British people a lot more sophisticated than you think, for Romans wore our Clothing in Rome, the first Gucci and Versace perhaps! Diolch yn fawr i ti, Nos da.

The Comanche sometimes burnt all their belongings and killed their livestock in mourning.

Romans brought writing to an otherwise civilized society and destroyed all resistance. It is habitual and sad. If we really understood tolerance, we might be able to better survive difficult times without mass destruction of each other. Many more natural events will continue. It is interesting how it corresponds with Earth history for thousands of years, and the nature events that occurred during those times -- meteors, volcanoes, earthquakes, typhoons etc.. These events constantly occur and create instability. Man creates worship. Earliest worship was done to the sun, probably by amoeba, and continued with multi-cell creatures which emerged and adapted. In every age, when food became scarce, it resulted inevitably in clashes with raiding parties of starving people. Romans took things to a great level. They brought writing, some superior engineering and their version of civilization. They also brought sloth, greed, and slaughter. As in every culture, you can get clues by observing the lower classes who most suffered. This trend continues to date.

Geez... she is holding a very intricate piece of gold work and she says " seems to indicate " they were more sophisticated than what was expected. When are they going start treating and calling what they are finding in the digs as intricate complex and ancestors were more sophisticated than they believed !

‘Some Historians were sceptical of the facts.’ This is the problem, the story gets changed and verified and still it gets questioned. Open your minds, especially to facts.
