About

Archaeology or archeology[a] is the study of human activity through the recovery and analysis of material culture. The archaeological record consists of artifacts, architecture, biofacts or ecofacts, sites, and cultural landscapes.

Archaeology has various goals, which range from understanding culture history to reconstructing past lifeways to documenting and explaining changes in human societies through time.

The discipline involves surveying, excavation, and eventually analysis of data collected, to learn more about the past. In broad scope, archaeology relies on cross-disciplinary research. Read more...

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Be kind and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. No pseudoscience/pseudoarchaeology.

Yeah I've had common evening-primrose, prickly lettuce, tall hedge mustard as spicy as wasabi, chicken of the woods killing our plum tree lol, now what looks like artist's bracket too in our garden this year. But to be fair most of these seem to grow almost everywhere. Once you learn to identify one of these you will really see them everywhere.

Hedge mustard? Sounds cool. I forgot we get prickly lettuce too. Lots of it. The wild bunnies love it. I definitely need to learn more.

hedge mustard is definitely one to know if you like the tast of arugula, wasabi, horseradish or paint thinner
