    Four obsevations: I) It informs me how the womans knife on Greenland was made: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulu Today the ulu is sold in the store in steel - but without the handle, which originally must have been a piece of bone. II) The video informs about the crucial element: The HARD hammer and the SOFT hammer. It explains why this is probably a simultaneous invention and not at specific cultural thing. III) It explains where all the arrowheads came from: They are the waste product of axe-making. IV) Phils remark reminds me of a stone sculpturer, that stated that the statue was allready in the stone. A great piece of reconstructive archology!!!

    To me the greatest mystery of Stonehenge is not why it was built or how was built even who built it, but why when it was built at roughly the same time as the pyramids and Babylon, is it so cruelly constructed. If people travelled around as much as was detailed in this video then people in those times must have travelled to places with more advanced building techniques, I really don't get it?

    51:20 Ironic that "Windmill Hill" is now far too common, meaning landscapes full of giant, spinning eyesores supposedly saving the planet. They also ruin night skies and ambience with their red lights.

    I'm a history buff. I always ooo and awe about what was done by the people using a certain artifact. Mr. Harding, a man who finds artifacts, has the same awe and questions I have. He's a wonderful person. I think his bubbling personality and sharp sense of humor are probably to thank for that. Every chance I get, I love watching Time Team and Tony, Mitch, Phil, and all the team members.

    I am struck how the Amesbury Archer, who obviously was cherished in his community, has had his humanity removed in the exhibition and turned into a collection of bones. I wish there was a way to show reverence for his personhood ❤

    A lot of those flakes you knocked off appear to be useable as slicers or scrapers. I know how sharp flint can be, my grandmother had a large piece of flint for starting fires in our backyard fireplace. She had it most of her life. Growing up, she cooked over a wood-fired stove until she married my grandfather. She started the fires by hitting the flint with her Iron meat cleaver.. Sparks flew, and so did flakes of flint. We had to be careful picking up the flint flakes, sharp as glass!

    Great meet up and i dont want to pour rain on their parade but why do we think the archer "SLOWLY" walked his way across Europe? A friend of mine could walk 40 miles in a day easily! so the archer could have walked from the alps and back every year if he wanted to. Some of the theories that trip of their lips are laughable. He was "royalty"? please give me strength. Where was the crown?

    My dad was at this camp. He was arrested in the town by the local plod for being drunk and disorderly and spent the night in the cells.Dont know too much else,other than he liked a drink.found some rotting potatoes at the camp and asked at the cookhouse for some yeast, months later, a passable alcoholic was had by all, so he must have been there some time.

    For me, the most amazing part of these monuments is the fact that the people involved in the planning, designing and building had no written language. No one seems to talk about that. But just imagine how difficult it would be, to come up with a complex and complicated plan without being able to write it down and give to the workforce.
