This video presents the findings of the Dig Hill 80 archaeological excavation project in Wytschaete, Belgium. The project focused on remarkably intact World War I trenches and was funded in part by viewers of Forgotten Weapons. The presentation, attended by the video creator, details the historical discoveries made during the spring and summer of 2018. Donations are still being accepted to finalize cataloging and publications, particularly due to the unexpected recovery of human remains impacting the project budget.
This video is a successful follow-up to the Dig Hill 80 fundraiser, exceeding its goal by nearly 40,000 Euros thanks in part to the "Forgotten Weapons" audience. The creator expresses excitement about visiting the site in Spring 2018 and promises footage during the dig in June and of the final state in November. A promotional offer for an American WWI battlefield tour in France in May 2018 is also included, with a discount code "Weapons".
This video promotes a crowdfunding campaign to fund the archaeological excavation of Hill 80, a well-preserved World War I German fortification in Wytschaete, Belgium. The fortification was occupied from 1914 to 1917 and has remained untouched since. The campaign, running until December 17th, seeks to support a team of professional battlefield archaeologists in their full-scale excavation planned for 2018. The uploader expresses personal interest and hopes to film the dig or its results if the fundraiser is successful, emphasizing they have no financial stake in the project.
