When We Were Digging Huge Pits
Link #history #archaeology #some grand stuff here #it was the foot and mouth crisis that did for me #when we were digging huge pits #to bury or burn hundreds of cows and sheeps #in one fell swoop #and i just kept having these visions #of future archaeologists finding these remains #and being all #wow mass animal sacrifice in the 20th century #because come on #you know they will #of our society #but we wont #because thats not how it works #all our records are stored in degradeable media #were not going to leave as much as we think we will
