Thanks HF.
This evoked two particular thoughts. The first hearkens back to a decades old ‘Far Side’ comic where two future archeologists are ruminating over what is obviously a wire coat hanger. One mentions to the other “It clearly has some religious significance”. The implication, of course, is that many, if not most archeologists really don’t have a clue as to the real purpose of things. The broader scope is that most people are in fact wrong when it comes to their own interpretations of things. I have had the great fortune to spend some time at a significant number of archeological sites deep in South America, including some distant and remote museums. Many of the descriptions of the artifacts seemed to me to be pure speculation.
The second thought is how it seems that craftsmanship and pride in the quality of workmanship seems to have all but vanished. Sure, there are still some that produce things of great beauty and quality, but they are clearly the minuscule exceptions rather than the rule. I suspect that as civilizations mature, graft and corruption consume more and more of the wealth of the productive class. This causes time as well as value to become more and more constrained such that the extra effort or cost of the process needs to be minimized. Ornate architecture and fine detail are no longer considered. Sculpture has become so modern, it appears to be crafted by 5 year olds. Why remove the sharp edges of a product when we can save time and money by passing (a small portion of) the savings on to the customer. Inevitably, the corruption will lead to the collapse of current civilization, to be followed by the next civilization cycle. My question is: what things from our civilization cycle will survive to be discovered by some future archeologists?

Future archaeologists will determine that the dog was revered as a god, clearly exhibited by the religious ritual of saving dogshit in a relatively indestructible plastic bag. They will find these religious relics all over the first world where they are excavating the waste dumps of the ancient past (a treasure trove for any archaeologist).
Max Igan site the crowhouse has shown the buildings and other things with spires. David Icke has shown things like this in his books. And of course there is Sitchen with his earth chronicles series. Man was different before the deluge.
