Must Farm, Roman Settlements And More Of Digging For Britain's Greatest Ancient Finds

[@cortrichards8179]

This is such a great show. I have watched these over and over in some cases and I always learn something new, each time. I love these hours long presentations the most, and hope there are many more to come. Professor Alice Roberts is such an excellent narrator, and so is Matt Williams. It has been really cool watching both of them go from working on Time Team, to being the narrators of Digging for Britain. As I am an American citizen, with English, Scottish and Welsh ancestry, this has been such a great way to learn about where my own ancestors came from, and what their lives must have been like.

Those who win the war, write the history. Never trust the words of a conqueror.

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

I agree with you, great advice. Although I wouldn’t say to never trust the victor, but rather to have a critical eye, be skeptical of their version of events and always ask questions. Lots and lots of questions. 🙂

Well its either them or no one

[@MrMrsmcd]

​@SecretSquirrelFun Two sides to every story, so the saying goes

[@magster6022]

Well, one alternative is to make it up as the MAGA do. Not a good way to go. Better keep a skeptical eye and DO RESEARCH yourself.

Amazing work 👍🏽

Betcha The Thames was a good salmon river at one time before the sewer and industrial waste took over.

[@sansserif8839]

The Thames had plenty of salmon until the early 1800s.

[@AndrewC.McPherson-xf5zw]

@sansserif8839 Ya, betcha there were a lot 50lbs +. Atlanic Salmon like in Newfoundland rivers.

[@kevincorbin6273]

The fact that the sites were not plundered would speak to an affluent community

58:48 I hope to see more veterans catching the archeology bug because of this.

[@LynneSheridan-ve2cm]

Someone may have already asked this, where the burials surrounding the 'matriarch grave" biologically related to those women, were they direct descendants or more distant descendants. Maybe this info is yet to found.

Water folk / fishermen are well fed and strong due to the nature of their living . Fishermen will fight over their resources , just like they do to this day !

[@jacobkuykendall9325]

I still can't understand why it is the god fearing folk STILL can't except that pagans were around thousands of years before you. Why o why are so many Christians so self important? Isn't it a sin of hubris committed by a human? So how is it OK to belittle and persecute us pagans?

[@ricksellars3908]

Christian's are hypothetical every celebration they do is all stolen from Pagan beliefs,son of god,sun god, death of christ and rose 3 days later, 3 being a pagan a number and death and rebirth of the summer light, hence easter being held in spring, Christianity and especially islam should be banned

[@728bigbaby]

Careful now, they’re going to come for you “Help! Help! I’m being oppressed!”

[@lucesainte-marie9017]

31:28 I would have like to have a still photo taken from above of that beautiful artefact instead of a dizzying take that shows nothing. I’have been listing to this episode twice and haven’t changed my “feeling”. That’s just an opinion.

[@lucesainte-marie9017]

Hi. I’ve been asking myself this question for more than 60 years now. Before, I was raised in a convent, feeling absolutely nothing for the god thing but appreciating without question the education I received from the sisters. I either do not understand how the bibs maniacs do not understand that there were goddesses and gods before their sacred book. Furthermore, most even ignore that the Hebrew Bible (now Ancien Testament) was written around 1500 or 1200 and 165 BC. And that the New Testament was written in the First Century, that is around 70 years after The Event. And it goes for three other centuries or so before a Pope and his Council decide to choose what’s good for their policies and wallets. I really don’t understand. What is happening to Neolithic, stone, bronze, iron (and gold) people? Will they have their say in this bombastic chaos of “It’s me the god, no it’s me, no it’s me”? Religion is about greed, domination and silencing people. And specially women. NOTE: this is just my opinion.

[@markedis5902]

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

26:22 maybe she was a complete cow in life. Meat gift 🤣 Perhaps the cow crushed the woman and caused her death and then in anger the cow was killed and buried with her. If a cow killed somebody you knew, would you then want to eat that cow or drink it’s milk. The murder cow had to go.

[@islandwoodsie4519]

"The women are very important." Soken as if this were a foreign concept, as indeed it is.

[@nicholasreyling1278]

Bruh the water pipe impaled that poor woman's skull!

[@forestdweller5581]

3 thousand years ago is prehistorical? When will the British ever start paying more attention to their true prehistorical finds instead of the recent Neolithic? You have humans there from over a million years ago....

[@mirainlewis1912]

Prehistoric just means before written records began

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

14:19 OR, and stick with me, the person that was making the sword, either made a mistake and decided to smash it up in frustration, or they never finished it because the person they made it for didn’t pay them and so they destroyed it dramatically in front of them. Or it was being made for someone that died before it was even finished and it was destroyed so that it couldn’t go to someone else. Maybe that’s why they find damaged weapons because upon the death of the weapons owner, the family or friends would destroy and dispose/discard them all. Perhaps it was bad luck to keep and use the weapons of a dead person - except for direct descendants. I’m simply over the whole “ritual purposes” and “ritual offerings” explanation for practically everything. 🤣

[@lenabreijer1311]

How many churches are there in your town? How much money have they gathered up to decorate their buildings? How many candles are there lit in that catholic church to pray for health? How many "hosts" are eaten and wine drunk pretending it is the body and blood of a demi god?

[@FrisianLunatic]

They could just re-use the bronze if it was a faulty product. It was very valueable and wouldnt just get tossed without reason

Thank you for your videos mate.. . Crypto education is what the world needs the most right now. I don’t think that buy and hold is a valid investment strategy anymore. Not too diluted and to a degree, follows Sophia’s trading ideas and signal tips for your portfolio growth and aggressiveness. She is a woman who has not only taught me what the cryptocurrency trading world looks like but a secret to uplift my finance. Buying crypto and waiting for the price to shoot up is not the best way to invest in the market but buying and trading is. Sophia Haney’s trade signaIs does the heavy lifting, generating competitive returns for crypto traders and investors in the form of money and peace of mind. Time in the market vs. timing the market. If you keep that mentality as an investor, you will stay calm during the storm! Within some months I was making a lot more money and have continued on that same path...
