Well, the kids actually do have an excuse. It's called school systems coaching kids to pass standardized tests instead of teaching them to think.Minimalist wrote:You Brits have a lot more history to learn. American kids have NO excuse!

Lol, and Vegas used to be considered "recession-proof". How can a scientist be so stupid as to speak in absolutes?

Just as earlier cultures all over the world didn't have the same fascination with the past that we do. In both cases it's different points of view separated by time. It is apparent that through the reuse of monuments and artefacts and continuity of non utiliatarian sites that earlier cultures did h...

Re: An Article on Repatriation of Artifacts
While less likely, similar types of damage can happen when artifacts are kept in top rate museums. Terrorism, while far less dangerous than our governments want us to think it is, is a possible threat to cultural storehouses. The fact that many acquisitions were not illegal really means nothing to m...

Re: 10,000 Y O spear in FLA
10kya it would have been surface water, or am i missing your point?What makes the site so unique is that the water entering the spring at about 250 feet beneath the surface has been underground for so long it contains no oxygen. There are no microbes or bacteria that normally destroy such relics.
