Plaque to the future

Show notes

Archaeologist Dr Helen Geake answers questions from Time Team members in this episode of the Time Team podcast. Co-host Martyn Williams shares some of the ideas the production team have been coming up with on how to mark the moment the Sutton Hoo Ship's Company launch their reconstructed Anglo-Saxon ship.

There are questions on identifying dental work on skeletal remains, the future of large scale archaeological excavations, telling a person's profession from their bones and the Time Team project Helen's most proud of.

You can submit your question for a future episode, plus get ad-free and bonus episodes of the podcast by becoming a Time Team member. Your support on Patreon allows us to make more programmes and carry out more archaeology. Go to patreon.com/timeteamofficial for more information.
