I once read a spoof of future archaeologists recovering the remains of our civilization and thinking the toilet seat was a kind of ritual necklace.

You're right, though. If it can't be explained it's automatically a "ritual object." It could never be Thag's attempt to impress cave girls or anything like that...

And teh toilet was supposedly a ritual urn.
Toot 'n C'mon's curse.
The story was in either Analog magazine or the other Sci-fi short story mag.
