An eagle-eyed forest ranger spotted bits of Roman building poking out from the forest floor in Cambridgeshire's Bedford Purlieus Wood.
And cutting-edge aerial visualisations reveal evidence of a complex of building foundations hidden in the woods. Tony and the Team investigate what these buildings were and why they were here.
It's a straightforward question, but the dig is one of the most challenging of the series: it's almost impossible for geophysics to operate in the cramped woodland environment; the diggers can't see each other's trenches for the trees; and a thick layer of autumn leaves add to the general disorientation.
But the Team manage to uncover substantial buildings, intricate finds and what looks suspiciously like a statue. Over three days they piece together a tale of Roman industry and trade, and what may be the key to understanding the site: the presence of a fancy bath-house.

Geo-Phys has advanced leaps & bounds since this was originally aired. I'm a bit of an Archaeology Geek/Nerd, have been since I was a youngster ( and hooked on any mythology I could get my hands on. I always wanted to help on any digs that were in my area (I lived, at the time, in The Bay Area of Northern CA (Native American the local Miwok )tribes. I was a bit of a charming kidlet, so, if there was one close to me, I'd ask to help (usually sorting and washing possible finds). Years later, and more then a few health issues, I realized Archaeology was not going to be a good career fit. So I became an "Armchair Archaeologist", reading anything and everything about Archaeology digs (not to mention any documentaries). When I found Time Team I was in absolute heaven. I've watched all of the Episodes from Season 1 to this current episode, I've grown to respect not only John with his Geo-Phys advancements, and Stewart with his Landscape Archaeology ... Together they can narrow down where test-pits and trenches are done (and maybe save some 'ecologically delicate' sites when technology has advanced even further.).

You also should remember when they were first named they would've been much bigger than they are now. Still smaller than what some would consider a forest but when those countries sometimes have woodland bigger than England itself it's a question of relative scale. To be honest I wouldn't consider the woods in this Time Team a forest either.

John S. You heard right, but in the UK corn usually means grain. I'm not sure why Tony said maize. There was no maize in Roman Britain. In this case the bowl would have likely been used for wheat or oats, depending on region (corn likely means oats in more northern/Scottish regions). The exception to this was of course the little known but epic gladiator battles in the Maize Quest Corn Maze. Gladiator: Journey Ancient Rome Corn Maze at Maize Quest 2013

John S a small error on Tony's part. In the u.s. we refer to maize as corn.

Maize is a new world plant, and discovery of its' existence at this dig would have "turned the archeological world on its' head."

The British refer to grains that are ground as corn. When in reality it maybe wheat or barley or another grain. But you're right about the maize, it is a new world plant that was not around during Roman times. It was a mistake in the script.

*Sun To My Moon* I almost get angry (but sometimes I'm amused) when the _armchair archæologists_ trash the findings of some of the best _professional_ archæologists in the *UK,* a few amongst the best in the world. They watch a 50 minute programme and assume that is all that there was in a three-day dig, that the finds have been grossly misunderstood and the dating is way off.
