    If it was the state, it would only be a matter of time before someone blew it up with dynamite. People ‘round there don’t like different ideas

    Cool that it’s in the other Georgia, it has a chance of surviving to be studied

      Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
      Guide reproduction wisely – improving fitness and diversity.

About

Archaeology or archeology[a] is the study of human activity through the recovery and analysis of material culture. The archaeological record consists of artifacts, architecture, biofacts or ecofacts, sites, and cultural landscapes.

Archaeology has various goals, which range from understanding culture history to reconstructing past lifeways to documenting and explaining changes in human societies through time.

The discipline involves surveying, excavation, and eventually analysis of data collected, to learn more about the past. In broad scope, archaeology relies on cross-disciplinary research. Read more…

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Be kind and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. No pseudoscience/pseudoarchaeology.
