QJNQk When you think of archaeology, you might think of ancient buildings or Han Solo in a fedora, but the truth is, archaeologists spend more time digging through ancient trash than avoiding ancient Peruvian blowgun traps.

Even today, archaeologists believe that trash reveals more about the lives we actually lead than, say, a journal.
