observer Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Just watched Time Team excavating an old Roman Villa; which they deduced was abandoned by the owners around the time the Legions left. :confused: What I find confusing is: the sudden loss of civilized living once Roman influence was gone. :confused: Why didn't the Brits, or even the incoming Saxons continue with the their "civilized" lifestyles and continue to utilise Roaman buildings and maintain their infrastructure? :confused: [ 06.04.2008, 23:18: Message edited by: observer ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonymaillman Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Religious differences ........ Saxons would 'rob' masonry and stuff from unused Roman buildings but were at pains to reside in them, a lot was for spiritual reasons.
