Three reasons why #Netflix should replace the #psudeoscience ideas of #AncientApocalypse with a documentary about real #archaeologists
1) Excavations can be full of unexpected twists and turns. I’ve been washed down a flooded river, had a tunnel almost collapse while excavating and had a jaguar/puma fall into the excavation unit. (1/2)
2) Archaeologists are constantly trying to figure out the next piece of the puzzle. Think of it like a crime show— each field season the crew is excavating evidence that gets sent to the lab where specialists analyze the data to get a picture of what was happening in the past.
3) People who are watching can actually get involved in local archaeological digs! Many sites are looking for volunteers of all kinds and how often do you get to do what you see on tv? (2/2)
