    Who else remembers the TT episode of Phil's DNA test? He is descended from a female who crossed into England from Europe 20,000 years ago. He may be descended from the people he is bringing to life here.

    What might the iron be from? When else has vivianite been present?Why might there have been a tree in the moat? Was it worked? De-barked? Less musical interludes and backhoes, more story, please!

    Interesting. I hope that there will be a more extensive presentation of the dig. I know that it isn't Time Team, but since I live in the Rocky Mountains, in the US, I will never get a chance to go see the castle in person.

    They were travellers. Orkney pottery found in the Stonehenge area. Maybe travel was safe? They used cup and cup and ring mark symbols from Northern Scotland to Portugal and beyond. There was an Atlantic seaboard pan-European culture that shared a lot culturally.

    The stone circle reminds me of a roman colosseum or arena. 10 meter deep ditch, and huge rampart to sit on for the audience.

    Hi Folks, So very glad to see Wessex Archaeology through several youtube videos, and love to see the very best Dr Phil there ever was by far, As much as I enjoy these videos, and I really do, I would like to ask that in editing your content you would back-off the background music please? it is >>very<< irritating to have it compete with and far too often outcompete, the voices of those talking and what they are saying, Looking forward to more great Archaeology content, discussions, etc...., Thank you, KWL

    I remember the first time I saw Stonehenge. It was the night before Midsummer. I was hitchhiking from London and was dropped off on Salisbury plain, probably a mile and a half from the monument. The moon was pretty bright and I walked the distance, soon I could see Stonehenge on the horizon and, as I walked, it grew larger and larger. It seemed to just arise from the earth. It was literally overwhelming. Of course, by dawn it was pouring rain and I never got to see the sun rising over the healstone.

    When I was at junior school in the mid 60’s, we had items loaned to us, we studied the story of cocoa, sheep’s wool and the weaving trade, and the moon lander. We were also taught about the slave trade too.

    I think if people from half million years ago were looking over your shoulder, some probably would think you were less skilled than they were, if not "totally incompetent". Others would probably think "I wish I could do it that well, but I bet I can run faster than him." We're all different and I bet we always were.

    I'm recovering from a BKA, right foot amputation, after freak accident.. I have always followed time team , and it's a crying shame that the BBC will not fund these guys on an incredible journey to unearth the past. Phil I recall , in one episode , ensured that whilst handling a burial ground , he was adamant not to be disrespectful to the dead... I'm intending to work on a pre history round fort on our land . It keeps me going and I'm determined to walk again .
