Are Brazilian skull miners too? Just asking. I am going to put in my will when I come of age for my skeleton to be used if it is useful for money rituals, or any medical practical. I think human bones should not be left to decay like that. |

AngelicBeing:It's thought in History class even in secondary school. In History you have 3 branches ; Written, Oral and Dug History. The dug history is where this knowledge is thought. History and Archeology are bed fellows. 1 Like |

Wakago:Are you seriously telling me Dug history is being tought in secondary schols? Aint you confusing yourself? Is there such word as Dug history in secondary schools? Dug digging as it sound aint that a process to unearth history itself rather than a kind of history like written and Oral? what is Dug History, where did you get that from?? 1 Like |

erico2k2:More reason you need to ask when you don't know something rather than proof to know everything others. know. How will you know when you don't believe there is anything like dug history. This part of history deals with excavation of artifacts hence the dating. These are the basics of History. |

NigerArea: I love science too and I am always checking out Discovery Science channel. There is something called Carbon Dating - I leanrt that on the channel when there was a documentary on a claim about the Shroud of Turin. Anyway, researchers use this Carbon dating thing to determine the amount of radioactive decay of carbon-14 versus Carbon 14 in our own time and thus use it to tell the age of artifacts such as this (which was a formerly a living thing). |

Wakago:I did, |I asked a prof that works in the national history musum in London tralfagers square.he was a coleageue of mine during 2nd degree days at uni.he says there is nothing like DUG history.I am an Engineer so |i dnt know jack shyete about this but we use CO dating as a means to measure.Now my initial Arguement was that Co dating is not tought in secondary schools,I have asked you to name a text that contains carbon dating methods used in any of the Nigerian school you have seen,you ended up with the above.I have also asked you to point me to any text or quotes or written citation to the word DUG History as a kind of history, we are still left with the above statement. You see my friend, Assumption is terrible, Its a vein that lack no method nor science cos it can not be proven,I always stick to what I know, Ask me anything about fluid mechanic then yay sun will shine!ANything to do with Hydrolics in heavy Engines,you r my man, What you are describing is called a process/method not a kind/type. My Musume friend just sugested to me that what you might be trying to say is the process of collecting history from undernith the earth but it is calle excavation(process) not kind and the pit it is collected from is called a DIG.I can link you directly to him if U r interested in such thing that is if you are a history student. 2 Likes |

immhotep: I have friends who do such digs, some are professional archaeologists and some are volunteers helping them clean and sort the artifacts. These people camp out in the middle of nowhere dig sites and sleep rough, eat awful camp food for weeks, they do rough physical work a day everyday and they are supervised by a tenured professor, and media too if it's an important discovery. These people also go through strict ethics education, stealing ancient artifacts is a big crime in many countries and punished heavily if caught. These people study for years and do all that tough work digging under the hot sun, spend many years with this, do you think they would throw away their career and international prestige they have earned by publishing research papers, all what they worked so hard to build for grave robbery? Is it worth the risk rotting in prison? They find mostly broken pottery and ancient gsrbage dumps anyway, it is a labor of lovr and only ideologist people work in that field. They might spend years digging before they find anything remotely precious. 1 Like |

erico2k2:You see, you are the one confusing yourself here. I didn't mention DUG History but you did. I didn't put cap on my own Dug like you did. Since you agreed with the word 'Dig', tenses of verb made me understand that the past participle of Dig or dig is dug . So it can't be dig history rather dug. The prof should have let you know that when working on artifacts, dating of such objects is pertinent hence carbon dating is unavoidable. I learnt/heard this for the first time in my secondary school days. Hnmmm "History student" ? I had my first degree in History in 1997 and Masters subsequently. Like I said earlier, History and Archeology are bed fellows. But to you, you thought carbon dating was tought exclusively in secondary school. Not what you think my brother. |
