Let's be realistic "people are going to people" even today local tribes will work with an invading army so why should it be any different 2000 years ago?

Am i the only one that clicked on this because i thought it said "excavating a Roman fart', not fort

Were the swords on the floor or under it? They start out saying they took up the floor and then say the swords were left on the floor? A previous floor that was built over?

Vindolanda is amazing. You could film a full season of episodes there. I'd love to see it in person. Hello from USA. :)

Mnn! Did the Romans willingly trade, or did the fiendish Picts borrow the goods at the point of a weapon?

Dr alice has the smarts and the looks that very rare I love any show that she on she tells such a great story the facts she knows what she talking about is what makes is so good bravo Dr alice

They’ll never dig down deep enough to reach the bottom of the piles, so why try? Next time send a couple of divers.

Maybe those pesky Romans shoulda/oughta stayed home and minded their own business!

Really good show. Educational and informative but not boring and a intelligent and lovely host.

Why not “float” a few pieces of plywood and slither along them -low crawl? I can’t imagine why they didn’t use their brains. Looks as though the only way to get to the water might be being lowered from a heli.

Anyone else look a the thumbnail and go, "Not dressed like that you don't."? lol

WAR IS EVIL

Was so pleased to see a new post 😊

Is it me or is Alice smoking hot and has a way to make these shows cool and worth watching?

Thanks

Has anyone checked out replica chalk balls with a slinger? Easily worked very soft rock, and for fighting, the advantage that the enemy probably can't just pick them up and shoot them back.

I have no doubt that the Picts sold their sons and daughters for nice things. Sadly they forgot to keep a regular stock check.

Im so jealous that we dont have too much of this to find in the Americas ! SO cool history.

I could listen to Alice Roberts reading the phonebook out loud.😊

I have some ancient treasures that I intend to smuggle to England. When I get there with them, I'll rent a car and head to a remote location. After driving a few hours, when I find myself in a place far from any city, town or village, I will stop the car on the highway. At night I will go into the woods to bury the ancient treasures (ancient Roman and Greek coins from different centuries and a chipped stone ax made by Brazilian Indians) and I will bury everything with care as if it were an offering to a deity. Local stones will be used to completely line the bottom and sides of the small hole in the earth. Then I will return to Brazil with one certainty: in the future, all of this will be discovered by an amateur and will cause a great debate among English historians, archaeologists and anthropologists. They will be very intrigued to find objects from such different periods buried in the same location, apparently far from any excavated human settlements. And I'm sure no one will remember that I wrote my plan here, because there is no better way to hide a plan like this by revealing it on the Internet because no one really pays attention to comments made on videos like this.

The mind wonders what else is hidden under London underneath all the modern buildings.

What i find amazing is these artifacts have been buried for thousands of years for the day when archaeologists bring them back into the light of day . Lying there with all of the history going on above it .

41:13 could they have stolen these items after a battle?

Soldiers would never leave their swords. If you can only bring one thing with you it would be your weapon. Very strange for them to be there.

maybe they were the sea people

A beautiful and brilliant woman, wearing fashionable clothes while discussing archeological discoveries... What's not to like?

I’ve never seen that kind of Roman script before-it’s almost cursive. I couldn’t read it initially the way I could the Roman capitals that are still so similar to our own letter forms.

Whoever gave her that outfit is not her friend.

oh dear what is she wearing lol

❤🇬🇧❤

Vindolander… the gift that just keeps on giving. Great history

Just lookin🥰oi oi oi

interesting that she believes in binary sex here, but later pink haired leftie woke alice doesnt hmmmm

Steven Mithen in the singing Neanderthals does talk about early people keeping their ancestors with them - even taking them when they moved location. Could the jawbone just be part of an ancestor kept in the sideboard?

Not only did Scotland invent the Modern world but also the Stone age . See also Skara Brae and Brodgar- one theory says the old orcadians moved south when the climate changed they taught the southerners how to build Stonehenge etc. Visitors were arriving from the med back then too. See Nora Chadwicks books on the spread of the Celts. Oh and one Alice Roberts celts book too!

Chalk Balls were again for defence , They were used like a Grenade as they would Explode into a cloud of fine chalk dust when hit in the Face to temporarily blind them so you cold get away, HOW DO THEY NOT KNOW THIS ? …. Areologists my arse, Chalk Spears are also common throw a lot of them as a group creates a Dust cloud as cover to attack or retreat .. Like the Military uses smoke . The Muslims army at Jerusalem used SALT Bombs that were even more effective..

Stone Henge was built 13,000 years ago not 3000. And its not the Original Henge as in 1800s it was Rebuilt incorrectly and Stones from near by was also added, Hence the mystery of what it was used for, It was built as a Defence against Invasion. And would have been the perfect place to fight in Low numbers against a overwhelming enemy, This way it gave time for messages to be sent to rally a force for defence, It purpose to give time to organise a army from surrounding lands and time to evacuate Women and children. You could say it’s one of the countries first Defensive Castles.

Oh man! I'm sorry you can't keep any of those coins!!!

vikings raped what? xD

if Iron Age coins had the names of tribal leaders on them, surely writing must predate the Roman conquest

These are dependents of who come to Australia and murdered the rightful owners of the land for gold ... how many died due to these murderers

wonderful show !
