Britain's Stone Age Tsunami | Time Team Special
Time Team Episodes:
Time Team is a British television programme that originally aired on Channel 4 from January 1994 to September 2014. Presented by actor Tony Robinson, each episode featured a team of specialists carrying out an archaeological dig over a period of three days, with Robinson explaining the process in lay terms. The sites excavated ranged in date from the Palaeolithic to the Second World War.
Time Team Special 51 - Britain's Stone Age Tsunami was produced in 2013 and is about a tsunami with a run-up height of up to 25m that ripped across the North Sea around 6200 BC, steamrolling coastlines from Norway to Scotland, and as far as Greenland. It resulted from the sudden collapse of almost 300 km of the continental shelf near Norway, an area Norwegians call Storegga (the Great Edge).
It was the last of three Storegga Slides, considered to be amongst the largest known landslides and the largest known to have produced a tsunami. But it was also just one in a series of enormous events and rapid changes that defined the end of Earth’s last Ice Age, which lasted from 110,000 until about 12,000 years ago.
At its most glaciated point, in the northern hemisphere ice covered all of present-day Canada and the northern United States, as well as much of Asia, Russia, northern Europe and Britain. Then came a period of warming about 20,000 years ago. The reasons for this are still debated, but there is growing evidence that warming from seasonal changes in solar energy may have been exacerbated by a naturally occurring rise in atmospheric greenhouse gases.
As the ice melted, Britain went from being an ice-covered tundra within continental Europe to a forested area with a land bridge larger than Holland – Doggerland – across what now is the southern North Sea. It would have been an extremely attractive place to live: a low-lying plain characterised by lakes, estuaries, forests and salt marshes, according to maps that were put together using oil companies’ seismic survey data.
Rising sea levels ultimately would drown Doggerland, giving it the nickname “Britain’s Atlantis” and making Britain an island once and for all. By the time the tsunami hit, sea level rise already had made Doggerland – and Britain – an island, most scientists agree.
Nowadays it’s being proposed that landslides like the Soregga Slides could be more frequent in periods of climate change. Ocean warming might lead to the melting of the gas hydrates in the ice that contain methane that then ultimately can destabilise sediments. Ice sheet melting can cause big earthquakes.
We already see an increase in smaller tsunamis around Greenland today, with the iceberg breakoff leading to rolling and wave generation. If this destabilisation led to another Storegga-sized slide, the effects could be disastrous.

Taken on the same day as the shots at Cauldron Snout. Low Force is a series of picturesque waterfalls upstream from the small suspension footbridge, Wynch Bridge, which dates from 1830. The original bridge was built in 1704, by lead miners to cross the River Tees from Holwick to Bowlees.
A more impressive falls is High Force a little further down the Tees valley.
