Most of the time i think a lot of archeological things get messed up bc they seem to forget kids exist lol. My son made me realize that recently lol

I have a vague memory of knives being found in rafters in a historical site and they figured out it was to keep out if kid reach

I broke one of my mum's bowls using it to make Sandcastles so I buried it in the garden

as a child I had a period when I was just burying anything I could get my hands on, which very often was kitchen equipment

my friends ex ate a whole cake he was supposed to bring to his grandma's house so he buried the plate in the woods and it started a 20 year long fight

archeology seldom considers children. atleast the little I know.

When my Oma was little she didn’t realize you weren’t supposed to mix meat with dairy, and her aunts made her bury it in the backyard and pray over it

what a fabulous way of doing history in the internet age. I broke a nice vase and hid it in my room under my desk... almost wish I had buried it lol

fishboy :
I did the same thing - but I buried it in the old compost heap. Forgot about it, dug it up about a year later - hosed it off & it was clean 😆

Thebluequeenbee :
The fact that it was found thousands of years later tells me that it was in fact a very succesful plan 😂

So when Hannah worked in Cortez with pottery for archaeology, they had a mug that they believed was a child’s gift to their parent, bc the paint work

The "bury the shame" instinct is timeless.

Reminds me of the Ea Nasir tablets, or the Heqanakht Papyri. Humans are surprisingly relatable across time.

I think this interpretation relies on a modern nuclear family household and not a multigenerational one. Or did auntie help with the burying?

my mom had a pot full of fat. no clue why. she didn’t want to deal with it, so she put it in the field. i found in months later. totally reasonable!

Matthew V. Thompson :
It's interesting, children's behavior really hasn't changed much even after all this time. You probably CAN use modern sociology as a predictor. 🤔

Springish :
This reminds me of the archeology conversation about why knives were kept on the tops of the rafters.

I love reading all the stories and everyone assuming parents wouldn’t notice a pan missing but also won’t emotionally support them for cooking

I had an idea for this trend but no platform or energy, so pls feel free to take it! Mummified cats and the love of our pets after they’re gone

Theia Moon :
archeology is very sexist and agist. only recently have we been thinking about family and child behaviors.

Matthew Hall :
There are definitely broken tools buried in the yard at the house I grew up in. I love the idea of an archeologist finding them someday.

We found a very expensive 17th century pistol in a well, and right next to it was a halberd that had been bend into a hook. We think someone

Especially since there weren't opaque trash bags that you could bury it in!

I wish I could leave a note for archeologists explaining that the spoons OUTSIDE the house just got thrown in the compost by children...

aspiringasianhypebeast :
Would they have the soaps to clean a really badly burnt pan? It seems like it'd be easier to ruin a pan then.

accidentally melted a plastic stirring spoon to a pot once; didn't bury them in the *yard,* but I *did* hide them at the bottom of the trash bin XD

Man I wish the stuff I broke was easily buried, sadly my mom would have noticed it an entire wall or chandelier were missing

I don’t follow archeology that much, but when I do come across content about it, it does seem to lack a child’s perspective

My grandpa told me that when he was a child, every time his little brother broke something he throw it under the house. 😂

when archeologists find 🗡 up on the open rafters, "some ritual" instead of "keep out of kids' reach"

This makes me think of linguistics and memes of kids — playground stories and traditions that don’t get recognized by grown-ups 😂
