Worst is a body that shouldn’t be there.

Conversely, best is a body that should.

Absolute worst case scenario: You find a body that should be there but when you come back it’s gone

“Guys?  Where’d she go?”

She’s behind you

Me [beating at the bog body with a shovel]: WE. DIDN’T. TAKE. SITU. PHOTOS. YET. Get back in that hole! You can go for a walk after.

The fact that I can picture myself and pretty much all of my archaeologist colleagues grabbing a shovel and doing this last bit just makes it that much funnier.

god this has to be one of the dumbest things i spent 5 minutes on but it sprouted fully formed in my brain the second i saw this post

(sorry for quality i’m drawing on a mouse)

That episode of Time Team you didn’t see.

You know you fucked up when archaeologists drop their coffee.

Always take photos before you take a break, just in case the dead come back to life and destroy your trench!

OH MY GOD
