There are times in archaeology when it feels as if you are reaching out and physically touching the past. A wonderful example is this base of a vessel discovered at Broughton, impressed with the thumbprint of the potter who made it, some 1500 to 2000 years ago.

Keep a look out for more insights and 3D models, coming soon.

Post-Excavation Update

Post-ex analysis is still ongoing for both of Time Team's recent digs. This is typically a complex and time-consuming process, involving the insights of a wide range of experts in various disciplines, which are then collated and compiled into the final report. We'll be sharing much more information on specific finds, trenches and developments as the process progresses, so please watch this space for further updates.

Thanks for update. We are so fortunate to be able to see so much more now that time team is using patreon and YouTube.

Hmmmm… the SketchFab link took me to the sarcophagus

I absolutely love the 3D model, is the size I see on the screen similar to the size of the potsherd?

Gus is holding the sherd in the photo with Dani to get a sense of scale. See Day 3 of the villa dig at 21m06 for the discussion.

I just realized that you can zoom up on SketchFab!

Patricia Amero

I just realized that the ? in the right corner gives 3 tips on zooming, spinning etc. I love these 3-D models!!

I have a question an hope it doesn't make me sound stupid. I was wondering where the Romans left to when they left England. And where did they come from when they landed here. So I suppose where are the Romans Originally from? Hope I don't sound stupid for asking.

Jeff Lanam

IANAH, but I can give you some answers. First, it's not a stupid question. The fact is that not all Romans left at the same time, and some never left. People talk about the Romans leaving in 410, but that's when the last of the Army left. Probably a lot of administrators and wealthy people left with them. In that year, Emperor Honorius sent a letter to Britain telling them that they were on their own. They didn't come just from Italy, but from all over the Empire. The remains of the army went to the northern frontiers to try to defend the Roman heartlands in the Continent. Here's an article that gives some details about the army: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_of_Roman_rule_in_Britain

Oh! Thanks for that. I've been swinging around wildly sometimes.

As we say here.. there's no such thing as a stupid question. The way I understand it is the Romans got very powerful and developed a military might that was unstoppable and spread across Europe, into Africa and beyond. They fought their way from Italy, conquering tribes and taking land and governance. Julius Caesar came here but didn't stay long. Then Claudius with his army.
