Ahh yes, so the future generations of archaeologists have a Pompeii to uncover
Found in a time capsule in 2150: hey guys, we left you a little something over there by Vesuvius...you'll thank us later. And you better not have built a McDonald's on it...
No McDonalds but there is a Buy’N’Large Mega Mall that covers 50% of it.
It ain't much but it's honest work.
Its arrogant to think all the information we have now will survive long term. Future humans may curse us for the all history we've destroyed while studying history.
