Let’s be honest: Who hasn’t walked through a museum at some point in their life and thought to themselves that archaeologists are full of baloney? I certainly have. For instance, when I was visiting the Istanbul Archaeology Museum this summer, I found some examples of artifacts that the museum clearly didn’t fully appreciate. Here are my “alternative” explanations for the origins of these pieces:
The Chariot Safety PSA
The Ancient Brady Bunch
The Persian Laughing at a Headless Greek
The Proto-Bros
The Ancient Greek Prozac Commercial
-SRS ’13 and JRV ’12
