What are we Doing? Are we doing it correctly?

We discover something new we never knew existed and didn't know what it was.

 

We learned to speak words we had no idea, at first, what they were and meant.

 

We learned to find out, we saw pictures and didn't know what they were. Until we connected some words and use for what we saw in a picture. We all know what some things are.

 

How many of you don't know what a toilet is? Or what that potty training requires of an adult to teach a child what an Out House or Indoor toilet is for?

 

Lessons we learn and then we discuss. We debate when we find out there are other opinions on other matters because there might be two or more ways to cogitate on them.

 

I thank Dashyburn for bringing to my attention there are, again, and always will be, more than one view of how people see archaeology and other forms of the ancient past in our life filling pages of magazines, newspapers, the Internet with pictures and words about Earth and the people living on it, under it's ground, and in buildings; all the while we learn aboiut our history.

 

Do you suppose the following could have happened in reality?

 

It is hard to imagine what is real when you've been fed a slice of bread from a loaf of bread covered in vanilla creamy sugar. Separated what Mother said is good for us to eat from that which is underneath that really doesn't taste as good as the frosting to hide the breads bland flavor and cooked to dryness.

Then when you find a jar just like Mother used made of stone ware you dig in hoping for a cookie. Only to discover it has some sort of metal tube in it. Some sand or grit around the tube. You drop it and it breaks. Leave it for a thousand years and someone sees the pieces, like we might.

Upon reassembling it, we discover someone used the same kind of jars that Mother used to keep her ingredients in for making bread. Only they made a 1.5 volt battery; several thousand years ago.

I guess that's correct.

If it has been a mystery then all is well, for history. Do tell!
