Many viewers of my KZfaq channel often ask me the question "Where do I get things for my restorations?" In this video I will try to answer this question. All items in my videos were found during excavations in the fields of the Second World War.

Well done for digging in the conditions they would have lived and fought in. That dig for me would have been amazing and upsetting at the same time.

@Mike-jj2qf Жыл бұрын

I’m amazed at how everything’s in such good condition considering being buried for best part of 80 years. Can only guess the grounds full of clay and has shielded it from decay possibly. Great video!

@garrettelliott2565 Жыл бұрын

The mud has sealed off these items from the air which would have corroded it. These belts and other items will probably be in the same condition for centuries under that tightly packed clay.

If you do more. You may want to look into keeping some of those items wet until boiling in oil. You can get very fast decay. That oxidation has been waiting for years for more oxygen. A lot like scuba treasure leather rubber brass glass don't seem to decay. The leather shoes by titanic NOTHING else left but pairs of shoes next to each other.

It almost looks like the mud has almost preserved some of these relics. Some would say leave them in the ground because of what they signify and are attached to. Others would say preserve them as a piece of history. Something to say just how far we’ve come since those dark times. Good on you for doing all that work to uncover the past

As an archaeologist, I really hope you did proper documentation of all the artifacts you found and that you did other stuff like take photos within the context and create datapoints on a GIS system to show the spread of artifacts. What you seem to have here is a historical archaeological site. All archaeological sites are deserving of proper documentation, regardless of their historical significance.
