Description

Time Team archaeologist Dr Helen Geake answers questions from Time Team members. In this episode you'll hear Helen's thoughts on mysterious stones in Cornwall, diversity in Anglo-Saxon society and how much British influence might there have been on the European continent? There's also a great question about the digs on Helen's bucket list.



Helen also introduces you to another item from the Portable Antiquities Scheme. This time it's an ancient brooch. You can see it at the following link:
