If you were to dig or dive for artifacts or treasure, what would you seek? Why?
I would love to be part of a dig for something like this:

I like old war and aircraft artifacts. If you do go treasure hunting, make sure and observe what ever laws may apply to objects of cultural and historic significance.
May you find something wonderful.

Does digging up stuff from the past count? :)

It all counts. And, by the way, no one's ever found the tomb of Alexander the Great...

That's because he's ascended to the throne of heroes and lives in an ethereal state disconnected from our time and physical dimensions, silly.

Pretty much anything from history would interest me, really.

 

If I wasn't doing what I am now, I'd probably be out there digging stuff up =P

Get a metal detector or play some minecraft. Before you know it, you'll be through this phase.

I want to be a part of one of the teams that gets those 300 year old ice samples in Antarctica.

But only as an excuse to go to Antarctica so I can chase penguins.

We go to Mars and find the Prothean data cache.

 

Also, make sure we get the plans for the Crucible before the Reapers show up. That would have solved a lot of problems.

Hmmm don't know if I would go digging, I'm more inclined towards deep sea exploration.

As for what would I be looking for... I think wreckages of old ships. Trying to piece together their story :3

I wanna join Dobby in digging up dinosaur fossils.

 

I'd take you along.

 

 

I've dug for fossils for many years and I will continue digging for fossils for as long as I can. I love dinosaurs but one of my favorite time periods is the Pleistocene Epoch or the Ice Age as it's better known for. I want to dig for Mammoths, Mastodons, Dire Wolves, Giant Ground Sloths, and Smilodons. I've had the chance to prepare and put back together a Giant Ground Sloth vertebra, but I want to dig one up. One of my dreams is to work at the La Brea Tarpits. Hope to one day make it there.

 

 

I had the pleasure of getting a behind the scenes tour last year and here's a picture I took of the many fossils that have been found in those tarpits.

Here's a complete Dire Wolf too.

All these fossil are found in pits like this. This is called Pit 91. One of the pits where most of the fossils have been found in and is still continously throwing them up as of now.

I've done archaeological jaunts with universities in the States and in Europe.

I wouldn't do it again in the US. Apart from the few colonial sites and Civil War battlefields, archaeological work tends to be subsumed under anthropological departments. Which means that going on digs requires one to work with anthropologists and their students, many of whom seem to share fairly unsustainable assumptions about the meaning and nature of the evidence they're gathering at a given dig.

I would like to venture into ancient tombs. A bit like Indiana Jones.

Those tiny ones and those that aren't actually round (are irregular) belong to medieval or even ancient times. One or two of them belong to middle east I think.

 

The (III) coin at the bottom is too good to be true! Which country does it belong?
