In this dig something was different with Mick. It was as if the way he looked and talked was almost like reverence to the holiness of the place came over him. Also the way he mentioned his knowledge of other similar sites within that North-Irish -West Scotland Isles that were united within the faith of the first christianity. And he was right from the beginning in where to look for bones, and the square altar with the cross. Great episode!!

His specialty was the Medieval period, Churches in particular. That knowledge applies to this site. He was in his element. It's like Phil when he got to dig a neolithic site and find flint tools. All archaeologists love history but there is a certain period that each individual is passionate about. It's nice to see their enthusiasm when they get to dig their favorites.

I was really amazed to see this episode today: exactly 20 years ago (august 2001) I was on a trip in Scotland and our group went on a guided tour of Mull and Iona. Too bad on that day Scottish weather was at its worst: Mull was covered in a thick layer of fog and rain, so no scenic views for us (I remember the driver of the bus was trying to keep us interested with things like: "on a sunny day you would be able to see this" or "right behind that dense cloud there's that" and so on). On Iona we experienced a short break and were able to take some photos of the Abbey and the remains of the nunnery. I got a bad cold, too...

As a modern, church-going Christian, this episode really got my imagination going. But I may view things a little more practically. When pottery and other everyday objects were located near what might have been a chapel, I thought of the churches in my neighborhood. Maybe a bunch of Christians living near each other wanted to meet together so they built a local chapel. This also means I have a personal connection with those who lived, worshipped and died back then. The same thing that directed their lives and destiny directs mine. We all love Jesus. It makes them my Brothers and Sisters, even though I live thousands of km away, on a different continent, MANY CENTURIES LATER. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today and forever." (Hebrews 13:8) For Him time and distance are not barriers. LL 🇨🇦 😔

I now have watched at least a dozen episodes and love everyone. I look back at my life and being an Archaeologist is one road I wish I took ! Probably why I metal detect. My question is that I understand being a TV show that you have the 3 day adventure but this video is a prime example of only skimming the surface. I need to look but have not seen follow up videos. After all that work how do you leave a site ???? Do you just back fill it all in or does someone follow up your work ???? Seems a shame if the investigation just halts after the 3 days.

Professor Mick Aston as "some obscure lump" lol How do your geophys machines work? You seem to need to drive them in straight lines in order to get a cohesive picture, is that true? Seems you could pay for a cellphone service and then slap a GPS module in the machine so the computer can connect the pictures it takes via location and orientation, rather than trying to daisy chain a list based on area proximity and trusting that the machine is moving in regular patterns? Ideally you'd just equip the whole team with special sensory shoes that compile all walking data from the whole site into a picture, then your geophys person would really just be filling in the gaps rather than plotting the whole space. Maybe you could use the force pulse caused by shoving a shovel the ground for some sort of emr location. Man that would be the coolest archaeology toy lol, a shovel that does geophys via ground echolocation when it digs What causes teeth to become so decayed that you cant carbon date them? Like, theres got to be some radioactive carbon still in there right, if theres carbon at all? It takes like 100,000 years to fully decay doesnt it? Is there no carbon left in the tooth? does it get eaten by life forms?
@philaypeephilippotter6532
3 жыл бұрын
Some of the geophys machines are tied in with GPS but they've all got some form of inertial tracking too. The straight lines are to ensure uniform coverage. Bones decay because of the pH of the soil. The half-life of C-14 is less than 6,000 years so beyond about 50,000 other dating methods are more reliable.
