Unlock the secrets beneath a Dorset farm as Time Team investigates mysterious Roman coins and uncovers a prehistoric monument dating back 5,000 years! Join the Time Team as they dive into an archaeological mystery on a West Dorset farm, where Roman artifacts like coins and brooches hint at ancient activity beneath stubborn, stony fields. What begins as a search for a lost Roman building soon spirals into an extraordinary journey through time. Using geophysics, field walking, and expert analysis, the team uncovers not a Roman temple, but a complex monument blending Neolithic, Bronze Age, and Roman layers. Watch as discoveries unfold: a ring ditch suggesting a Bronze Age barrow, traces of palisades and ancient burning, expertly crafted stone tools, and the surprising absence of a central burial. The finds point to a rare Neolithic enclosure used for mysterious rituals, with later Bronze Age and Roman communities leaving their mark. Learn how ancient Britons built monuments, how their burial and ritual practices evolved, and why the Romans may have venerated this very spot. Whether you’re passionate about British archaeology, intrigued by prehistoric monuments, or love a real-life archaeological detective story, this episode is packed with fascinating finds and expert insights. Experience the highs, lows, and breakthroughs as the Time Team unravels 5,000 years of hidden history beneath an unsuspecting farm. #Archaeology #TimeTeam #PrehistoricBritain #RomanCoins #BronzeAge #Neolithic #Fieldwork #DorsetHistory
