Oh, yes, we do....... If you only knew...... (the global archaeologist conspiracy theory)

Well, all I have to say is, if you are going to be buried, put a note in there that explains all personal aspects of your life.

You've seen pictures of that famous bog guy with a rope around his neck? Tolland Man.

"Scholars believe the man was a human sacrifice rather than executed criminal because of the arranged position of his body, and the fact that his eyes and mouth were closed."

Wrong. I think it was autoerotic asphyxiation. He was out in the bog, minding his own business, doing his thing and BOOM! dead. Fell in a bog and becomes some human sacrifice showcased in a museum.

If it is terraced with flowers, you can call it a ha-ha, I think. Terrace is a goodly word for it, too.

And this is one of the reasons I am being cremated. I refuse to be some headless corpse in a grave, and I do NOT want to be dug up a bazillion years from now by archeologists who will make up sh*t about my life that isn't even true.

They don't KNOW me.

Well I want to be cremated because I don't want to send morticians' kids to college thank you very much... not pumping my pretty self full of formaldehyde .... hell no ...

DiO thanks for all that info. That really is a fabulous piece of real estate. And what a story behind it.

Later on tonight, I am going to use some of these terms to do my search (sorry I am just getting around to this now, been a bit busy the last few days). Thanks again.

Getting back to the thread...

Just wanted to mention I've been playing around with the terms and they have been very helpful, so thank you all. (The ha-ha landscaping that was mentioned is very interesting.) I'm trying to narrow it down to find a certain type I have in mind. We'll see what happens, but this thread gives me great information (and images).
