About

Archaeology or archeology[a] is the study of human activity through the recovery and analysis of material culture. The archaeological record consists of artifacts, architecture, biofacts or ecofacts, sites, and cultural landscapes.

Archaeology has various goals, which range from understanding culture history to reconstructing past lifeways to documenting and explaining changes in human societies through time.

The discipline involves surveying, excavation, and eventually analysis of data collected, to learn more about the past. In broad scope, archaeology relies on cross-disciplinary research. Read more...

Rules

we forgot like 95% of our native culinary practices with the world wars, globalization, industrial farming and the commodification of food. I've been getting into foraging and permaculture, and it's insane how much amazing food you're missing out on, if you're just eating what someone else can profitably sell.

If you watch some videos on coastal foraging in the UK, it's insane. There's food everywhere. Even with just my amateur knowledge in foraging, there's food everywhere.

I've got 2.5 acres of swamp in NW Florida and I'd LOVE to learn more about growing forage. Help a brother get his feet wet?
