Don’t bother digging. The corpse jumped the border into Los Angeles in the 5th century.
I’m not royalty, but in case they dig me up 1500 years later, I’m going to have the following items buried with me.....
A whistle.
A can of Spam.
A photo of William Shatner.
Three Q-tips.
Just the letter “M” part of a dictionary.
The tie-rod from an old Chevy Citation.
Two jock straps.
The little gun marker from a Clue game.
“The chamber and antechamber of Temple 20 has no sarcophagus, at least not up to the point that has been explored, but it does have a mural painted in lively tones of red on three sides, with representations of the Nine Lords of Xibalba, or the underworld.”
I’d like to see this.
