Archaeologists
A close relative of mine was curator for the Milwaukee Museum of History. His name escapes me as I write this.
I once wrote to him seeking advice as to get into the field of biblical archaeology, and he responded cordially.
The more I read on the subject, however, it left me wondering how so many in the field make so many assumptions. Moreover it was really dry reading.
If I were to spend time in the presence of an archaeologist I would be sure to tweak.
“How do you know?” Well, all we have are reasonable guesses. Okay. What makes them reasonable? Again, the multitude and enormity of guesswork is a bit daunting.
I don’t mean to throw shade on the field. It is essential to history. I only scratch my head when it comes to interpretation of its evidence.
I'm sorry I had to laugh on that sentence. Getting old is so much fun isn't it. Sad part is, we forget the fun parts too quickly. 🤣
A lot of their so called facts are assumptions based on their political views.
