I was just on a dig for a weekend, and we saw the surface is something and we thought it was bone. “Oh no” was the reaction. We didn’t want to dig up remains, it wasn’t the plan of the dig. “Luckily” it was not human remains, but we all had the reaction of grief if it was.

But now you know how loved they were. Otherwise they would have been forgotten. So the love and the Memory lives on.

That's why I cannot do archaeology. I have a degree in Anthropology but I chose cultural because my heart is too weak.

My god… I don’t think I’m mentally strong enough to ever do your job. What you do is amazing.

but how amazing, to have been so loved that the love lives on even when all those who knew you are gone? Is it so bad, to have been adored so much?
