@archaeohistories Really there should be a massive pothole in that for authenticity going down to the roman era.

@archaeohistories @drwho
That's effing Lit!

@archaeohistories I like how the modern road is built for XJ220's 😋

@archaeohistories cc @RantyHighwayman of interest?

@archaeohistories neat

@archaeohistories I appreciate the optimism of the Bronze Age hunter that they will be able to shoot their arrow through time to those deer.

@archaeohistories no ALT text on any image???

@archaeohistories that's amazing if true. It must have been a major artery to have been used for that long

@archaeohistories
I just love seeing history, thousands of years of reality, in a starkly real "slice". Amazing. Thank you!

@archaeohistories Is this some sort of investment scam? "Own a slice of the A303, so when they want to dual it, there's 40,000 ransom strips".

@archaeohistories And in all that time, only the Romans doing more than the bare minimum.

@archaeohistories Interesting. Strangely in Paris, during changes made for revegetation of Paris, I seen another layer of asphalt under the cobblestones

@archaeohistories
Not just any road: the one to Stone Henge!

@archaeohistories to be fair: Modern roads do not just consist of the tarmac but need a massive roadbed. That could only be left out here because the old roads provided it.

@archaeohistories @elight Maybe that’s why US roads take so much bloody maintenance and are constantly effed up. We just threw some gravel down and paved the dirt roads.

@archaeohistories squid road

@archaeohistories below natural chalk: Little Chef foundations #A303

@archaeohistories Fake news. Real roads here are far full of potholes. 😜
