Space Archeologist Sarah Parcak Unearths Ancient Mysteries ...............................................

“The most important thing for archeological discovery is context,” she [says]. “That’s why for archeologists looting is such a huge problem. Archaeologists like Sarah are hoping to find and secure ancient sites before they can be looted. GlobalXplorer lets thousands of people help pore over satellite maps together to find potentially historic sites — which local governments can then help secure for future generations to learn from." Anyone can volunteer. In what places in the world would you like to help find new discoveries? ..........................................

I've watched documentaries of her work with Archaeologists in Egypt and she has performed absolute wonders that have shaken the world of Archaeologists there.

The fact that looting archaeological sites is endemic is sadly a symptom of just how dysfunctional our global civilization is. That being said, glad peeps are doing their best to prevent same, gives me hope for the species.

😊 😊 To prevent loss is very positive for the survival of human culture and diversity.

Sometimes it's greed but sadly, like poaching wildlife, sometimes it's the result of desperate poverty.

@Carin Yes .... but desperate poverty is one of the symptoms of how sick/dysfunctional/warped our global civilization is ... because we easily could provide everyone on Earth with a decent standard of living.

@Druvius Correct.
