Archeologists Discover A Roman Treasure Trove Beneath A Norman Church

Archaeologists in the United Kingdom have uncovered an astonishing layer of history beneath the ruins of an old Norman church in Stoke Mandeville. What began as a routine excavation for the HS2 rail line revealed a forgotten Anglo-Saxon tower and a Roman ditch containing priceless, life-sized stone busts and a flawless glass urn. From the pre-Roman mints of London to 8,000-year-old agricultural DNA trapped under the sea, this episode explores the violent transitions and buried treasures that shaped early Britain.
