I recently bought a piece from a very old window from someone in England who was selling it online. It looked very old to me, and it also was just yellow and black with the etched picture of a bee. It was a gift for my daughter who is also an archaeology enthusiast, and she asked how old I thought it was. From looking at the speckled look to the glass and the etching I guessed 16th century. So seeing these windows in yellow and black, also with little specks in the glass makes me think I'm close on the date. I don't know what the bee symbolizm would mean, but her nickname is Bee, so I knew she'd love it. It was out of an old building someone inherited.

It just blows my American mind that there are Roman artifacts, Saxon artifacts and Medieval artifacts in a field! Not only that, but that there are so many abandoned villages all over England. What a great job everyone did on this dig! Must be frustrating to only have 3 days. Doing genealogy research , my ancestors go back mostly to England, coming over here as early as 1621. And one of my family names is Lane❤

The late Mick Aston's jumpers made such an impression on my two young daughters, so I had to knit them two jumpers! We were all addicted to Time Team, and I wish we had the programme today, as it was so interesting. They went everywhere, even on to the Isle of Mull in Scotland, to find an old chapel which had been entirely lost!

I love these digs from England. There is so much that can be deduced from historical maps,i.e., properly maps including roads from at least the 1600’s. Our country USA has only a 400 year old written history and so many burial sites have been lost due to people not wanting to stop and reporting the find because they don’t want to thwarted in their projects.

That's Wild, I have always felt compelled to pursue knowledge and power in order to contribute to the betterment of humanity. Been seeking a means to be influential and find out more knowledge about the human race and about the things not everyone is destined to know. I wish to fulfill the goal of enlightenment passed down by our forebears!!

That’s super cool that they also found a Roman cremation burial. I’d also never thought through that the peasants might not have known what that all was if they’d dug that up instead. But, it’s true: I’ve wondered myself what we might not know from past civilizations, particularly Egyptian but also Mayan and Incan. Creating a pyramid as a 3D representation of their calendar that is perfectly aligned mathematically so that the moon illuminates the carved dragon only when it’s equinox is incredible to think about. The relatively recent LIDAR ‘discovery’ of road systems and other details previously obscured by dense rainforest is another piece that will, I think, really show how advanced South American peoples were.

A long forgotten cemetery filled with long forgotten people. This makes me think of a line from that TV show Westworld, "you only live as long as the last person who remembers you."
