Wow, from strength to strength. Fantastic.

David J. Neivandt

Back to the question of stairs (or lack thereof) in the remains of Roman villas etc.; I wonder if many stone stair treads were robbed out preferentially vs wall stones because they'd have been valuable to repurpose as window and door lintels? They'd have required little if any reworking (assuming they were from a straight stairway) for someone building in stone in the medieval period. Preferential robbing of stair treads would leave us the walls to find in excavations, but little evidence of where stairs once existed. It would be interesting to look for wear patterns in the upper or lower faces of lintels in medieval buildings in known proximity to Roman villas.

Steve Gunning

Thank the lard, it’s been a great podcast, month in, month out, but weekly is a bonus I did not expect. You’re certainly showing those Career In Ruins chaps how to maintain one’s momentum, nudge nudge. 😉😉

Dorothy Africa

Is this where we submit questions? I have researched Killevy (Cell Sleibhe) in Co. Armagh, northern Ireland. It was founded in the early sixth century and lasting until the Dissolution under Henry 8, which is a very long time for a woman's community. There are some twelfth century ruins standing, and some signs of earlier structures but it has never been excavated or archaeologically examined, as far as I know, for buried structures. Are there a lot of known sites like Killevy which have long histories but remain unexplored? Does Time Team plan to work on any of them?

As mother's day (will have just past when the Pod comes out, but currently is yet to happen) is near. What is your favourite mother and child fact or discovery, eg, a mother and child burial, the mother and child preserved footprints, maybe a mother and son mentioned on a tablet etc etc?

Christopher Becke

I have a question for the podcast. Actually two somewhat related questions: I’m guessing I’m not the only fan from the US. Can you talk a bit about the short lived Time Team America? What brought it about and what led to its demise? Also, for US fans, is there any plan for a US shop? I’m guessing shipping merch from the UK is quite expensive. Thanks.

Gail

Question: I m a long time fan and US subscriber...would Time Team consider putting together some Time Team archeological tours...guided, small group? I'm particularly interested in the Nes of Brodgar. All best, Gail

This is excellent news; always a highlight of my week.

Alan

There was a recent question about how the Romans got "upstairs". I want to know what the floor surface was like when they got there?

Paul Downes

Will Patreon members be invited to volunteer at the Sutton hoo dig later this year?

Jean Fleming

Re facial reconstruction, the Anatomy Dept at Otago University has done some good reconstructions, of the face of the mummy in the local museum. It is in part based on the muscle attachment sites, which indicate the size and direction on facial muscles. I am sure there are plenty of up to date experts out there that you’ll be talking to, but there is a good description here: https://otagomuseum.nz/blog/facial-reconstruction-of-an-egyptian-mummy/

Gael Ferguson

Hi. The discussion about the use of etemology with archaeology was really interesting. I know that work has been done on looking at the emergence of plant species and their use with cultural change over time and movement of peoples but has much been done in the UK/ European context to explore the genetic changes of domesticated animals and how they link with social/cultural change over time. A lot has been done in the Pacific to track Polynesian exploration of the Pacific by tracking the kiore or rat who went with them on the ocean going craft, for example.

Gillian Gordon

Hi, another excellent podcast, thank you to all involved. I especially liked the feature about witch bottles, and I’ve seen circles scratched into chimney over-mantles too, that are purportedly also there to ward away witches/evil spirits (the Priest House that is looked after by Sussex Archaeological Society has examples of these). On another note, we travelled from Brighton to see the Team at work at Sutton Hoo last year, and would like to do the same this year. Is it possible to let us know dates yet? I think others are also interested. Thanks.

Lorna Dryden

Question: how has being an archaeologist shaped how you see the future?

Lorna Dryden

Question: what effect has being an archaeologist had on your physical body? Like an arm with a bigger muscle, like a neck with a permanent pain? Just curious?

Joanne Kellam

So excited that we’ll be able to tune in weekly!! My question: how do you find out about and subsequently evaluate whether you want to take on a dig at a particular site? And then whether you’ll send an expedition crew or the full Time Team experience?

Martyn Williams

Thanks Steve. We love Career In Ruins too though!!

Martyn Williams

Great question, Dorothy! I've added it to our list for a future episode

Martyn Williams

Watch this space, Gillian, because I think we'll have something to share soon

Martyn Williams

An excellent question, Joanne. They're on the list!

Martyn Williams

In fact, you may get a very in-depth answer to that question sooner than you think!

Marcus Alley

When you're recording something, why do you have to draw it and photograph it, when it seems that the photography would be sufficient in itself? I understand that photography has come a long way developmentally, but these days, what added benefit does drawing give you?

Chef Aaron

If you want an expert on language, Google John McWhorter. Love his books and lectures. He also has a Podcast

LELA L CRISWELL

I have a question for Helen: How difficult was it for you and your partner to juggle field archaeology while also going through pregnancy, small children in day care, and getting them through school?

Dorothy Africa

Thanks! I am sure you have a very long list of places to explore.

Ian Fleming

Really enjoying these podcasts, working my way through them all, thank you

Steve Gunning

Sure, we love them too, though their complaints about the amount of money and resources spent researching Stonehenge seems a tad short-sighted when compared to the invaluable archeological information such investment has produced, let alone the career paths such research has embellished over the years, including that of some of British archaeology’s greatest minds.

Patricia Amero

I woke up at 3 (ish) AM with a brilliant question. They'll debate this question and its possible answer for generations; it was so fantastic, I was beyond excited to ask. Fast-forward 5 hours and I now haven't a scooby-do as to what it was. Typical 🙄😂

Martyn Williams

Oh no!! We'd love to have known what it was!

Selena Allan

Question for the team: How far back can we trace the origins of England’s North-South divide? Were economic and cultural differences already emerging in Roman Britain, or did trade routes across the Channel later solidify the South’s dominance?

Neil Ford

Question: Time Team has tackled some pretty challenging excavation sites over the years, and I was recently listening to a podcast about the history of Greenland. It made me wonder—could Time Team ever excavate in somewhere as remote and extreme as Greenland or even the Arctic? What kinds of insights could archaeology offer about the peoples who may have lived there and their way of life? Hope you are able to answer my question 🤞Loving the podcast!

Diane Jones

With every podcast, I'm more and more impressed by the breadth of Helen's knowledge. My only negative thought is regarding Danni's separate Time Team News? Has it been absorbed into the podcast? I admit that I'm greedy, but can't we continue to have both?

Daka

I recently had the privilege of visiting Pompeii. Absolutely amazing. Definitely two storey buildings there but was there any evidence of stairs ther e I wonder. Love your podcast❤️
