Metaphysical.....

As I have stated previously, I had a double college major of Spanish and Archaeology. I eventually realized that one could not pay a mortgage, or any other bill, with archaeology.

Before I ceased pursuing the Archaeology degree, I was fortunate to participate in excavations in California, and then Central America.

In California, there were these smaller shaped rocks. Imagine a smaller wine bottle, and the top is a little thicker. The anthropologists speculated on all sorts of the possible religious and cultural significance of these artifacts. There was no written materials to explain or hint at them. Eventually, it was learned that the natives tied the rocks to their fishing nets to stabilize them in the water.

Archaeology seemed interesting, but it appears to be pretty demanding, and maybe a great reason to spend a lot of time outdoors, particularly when there’s no money to live indoors.😊
