"The series will delve into some of the greatest mysteries of time, including whether Amazon women really existed or if the Trojan War was real," the press release continues.

Archaeology, Schmarchaeology, all you have to do is go to the Amazon and find out. Gotta be some women around there somewhere. That's going to be a little tougher with respect to the Trojan War, though. I suppose you could email the company that makes them and ask. Lubricated vs. non-lubricated, that must have been a pretty tough fight.

Sometimes you just have to laugh or you cry.

She’s as qualified to talk about archeology as algore is about global warming. In fact this seems to be the progressive standard.

Gore won prizes for something that didn’t happen. Obama won a prize for something he didn’t do. Surely she can win a prize rebuking something that happened.

“Motel of the Mysteries,” a story about an archaeologist who uncovers ancient artifacts and how he thinks the various items were used in the extinct culture. His conviction that the motel is a burial ground colors his interpretation of every thing they find. A parody but probably holds true for today’s archaeology finds too.

“It is the year 4022; all of the ancient country of USA has been buried under many feet of detritus from a catastrophe that occurred back in 1985. Imagine, then, the excitement that Howard Carson, an amateur archeologist at best, experienced when in crossing the perimeter of an abandoned excavation site he felt the ground give way beneath him and found himself at the bottom of a shaft, which, judging from the DO NOT DISTURB sign hanging from an archaic doorknob, was clearly the entrance to a still-sealed burial chamber.”

"One of Fox's favorite shows, for instance, is called Ancient Aliens, and it's a conspiracy show that claims to have found evidence for alien life on Earth "

This is all that it takes for a know-nothing useful idiot to let everyone know that she is truly a know-nothing useful idiot.

I have no problem questioning archeology, generally. I think its claims often stretch the little pieces they know into bigger and far too specific cultural meanings for them, quite often.

That said, the show Ms Fox is going to host sounds more like the “Ancient Aliens” show on The History Channel (which due to shows like Ancient Aliens I have renamed “The Wild Speculation Channel”. (Granted, the History Channel does have a few shows that present only factual material.)

Atlantis was real.

Jews aren't really from the Middle East.

Sub Saharan Africans invented math.

Cleopatra was black.

Shakespeare was a woman.

Beethoven was black.

Did I miss anything?

good thing she did not decide to take on healthcare. I can’t imagine she would have very good diagnostic or surgical skills. But she knows the truth. It has been revealed to her. when do we open the new church.
