Imagine if Time Team received a royal commission to excavate the entire site, over a period of months. What wondrous and historical objects they would find.

I love how they keep their bloopers in. The guy who lost the coin is hilarious.

The still functioning Roman water aqueduct is simply stunning. It was built long before America was founded, before the U.K. existed as a nation.

Seeing that functioning water canal is amazing! To know it still functions after 1700 years is absolutely fantastic!

The thing that boggles my mind, is the idea that Rome in Britain lasted nearly 2x longer than the USA has existed so far. And it's a little blip in the history of the British isles. The scale of time and history is hard to really comprehend.

To think that the ancient roman water system was still working after a 1000 years is mind boggling. My towns pipes break at least every two to three years - shabby modern tech, lol.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mInuesqb6e4&t=1380">23:00</a> that truly is amazing. Engineering at its finest. And they were kind enough to cap the water so nobody would get wet socks a few centuries later

Not only did the goddess fortuna allow them to excavate a field not destroyed by plows (seemingly, for once!), but it turned out to be one of the most impressive and well preserved Roman sites in all of Britain. Time team has taught us that other fields in England have received English heritage’s highest grade status due to dodgy things like map-makers/surveyors recording supposed locations solely based on townspeople’s rumors and finding things as little as a few brooches or flint flakes… so I hope this field got the protection it deserves.

That is absolutely amazing that the spring and water system survived 1600+ years.
