The Lost Castle Of Dunrum: Norman Empire Remains | Time Team | Timeline

Показать описание
Tony and the Team search for the remains of a renegade knight's Norman castle in one of Northern Ireland's most picturesque spots.

King John sent John de Courcy to Ireland in 1170 as part of his invasion force, but de Courcy rebelled against his king's orders, instead establishing his own small kingdom and building a fine castle to defend it. King John refused to tolerate his disobedience and sent the loyal Hugh de Lacy across the Irish Sea to defeat him.

De Courcy's castle was rebuilt, and much of its replacement is still standing. But the experts are convinced that some of what remains dates from de Courcy's time, and the archaeologists set out to find the lost structures.

As they survey and dig within the huge castle walls, the Team are in for a big surprise. It seems the site was occupied by tribal chiefs for many centuries before anyone had even heard of the Normans...

I was seriously injured in April 2016. I had cabin fever so bad. I came across Time Team on YouTube. This person's channel had every Time Team episode. It rescued me.

Like so many of you, I have been watching most of these gentlemen on various tv shows for many years. This is the first time I have encountered Time Team. I love their enthusiasm! Not only the Sr. archaeologists, but the entire team. Their excitment is contagious. They are funny. Very refreshing to find a production such as this in this genre that is not stuffy in the slightest bit. Love these guys. Love the find!

At nearly 79 I regret my age for only one reason: I'd like to go up and down lumps, bumps, heights and lows the way Sir Tony still does!

11:35 Paul's ability to pick up a piece of pottery and almost instantly date it, tell you where it was made, and how it came to be there, is simply amazing to me.

The first thing to do when you're attacked by a knight on Horseback is kill the horse. With the Normans being heavily armored once they're on foot if the Irish could stay alive long enough they could wear them out and exhaust them. I love time team documentaries.

Djémila (Kabyle: Ğamila; Arabic: جميلة‎, the Beautiful one), formerly Cuicul, is a small mountain village in Algeria, near the northern coast east of Algiers, where some of the best preserved Berbero-Roman ruins in North Africa are found. It is situated in the region bordering the Constantinois and Petite Kabylie (Basse Kabylie).

In 1982, Djémila became a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its unique adaptation of Roman architecture to a mountain environment. Significant buildings in ancient Cuicul include a theatre, two fora, temples, basilicas, arches, streets, and houses. The exceptionally well preserved ruins surround the forum of the Harsh, a large paved square with an entry marked by a majestic arch.
