That helicopter tho. Drone technology has really changed archeology I would imagine.

Phil and his shorty shorts... never fails to make me smile.

Saw this episode of TT when it was new and great watching it again. Tony, Mick, Phil and the gang. Like meeting old friends.

It’s interesting to see the progression in technology between these earlier episodes and later ones. Made their work so much easier, I’d imagine 😊

Tony is the host and the banter is good natured to be entertaining.

whilst it is very much tongue incheek - I do love that its Baldrick who has contributed more to archeology than anyone since Heinrich Schliemann.

WOW! I never knew that our Southern Cross was EVER visible from the Northern Hemisphere. That’s my new fact for today. Thank you. I love this series… so much to learn! Down here in Australia we love our Southern Cross. We can actually use it to determine north, south, east and west in the middle of the night.

I have not seen this episode in a cows age. Glad it still exists.

Corded Ware and Bell Beaker, (AKA Funnelbeaker), cultures are closely related, and were the forbearers of both the Yamnaya, and Mycenaean cultures. Their origins having been traced to the North Pontic Steppe, which places them squarely at the roots of European Civilization. The Bell Beaker People of ancient Europe, were one of the earliest forms of advanced culture, anywhere on Earth, and warrant further scientific investigation.

A heck of an accomplishment in only 3 days. Very entertaining!

Still rather watch all these repeats then the new one. Cant do it without phil and those short shorts

[riverlady]

I would love to see something that goes into detail about each era of settlement here and what's been discovered over the years since this is clearly quite old now.

It was painful watching the local archaeologist and his students move those rocks.

A later expedition led by Dr. Bunsen Honeydew found the remains of several proto-muppets. Dr. Honeydew’s assistant summarized the find as follows: “Mi mi mi mi mimimimi mi mi mimimimi mi.”

Wonderful introducing & informative video About Bronze Age People in Spain

After the Beaker People came the Conical Flask and Clamp-Stand Peoples, gradually making modern science what it is today.

I love the explanation for GPS... which we now all take for granted (as well as cell phones).
