*I wrote this many years ago, in 2016, and now I can’t remember that I had real intended for it, but I never did anything with it. I recently came to him again and thought he was able to post. Only a little archaeological seriousness but still …
I was recently listening to a very hot debate on the radio – or not the combination of communities in some parts of northern England. The main problem seemed that some groups leave their trash lying outside their homes, while other eyes are more excited about keeping the denial. The other group who were calling to complain is convinced that there is a right or better way to work, and that ‘script’ was unacceptable.
Modern activity.
This reminds me of a thought that I often have in Egypt, whether they are considering archaeological or roaming the modern streets. I can dare to say that some calling on the radio considers Egypt a bit nasty. Domestic waste and other types of trash are usually more visible around the roads, but no one has much objection. The debris is often released from the works of the building, and the building projects are often seemingly incomplete.
I recently visited the excavation of a colleague at the ancient city of Bobastas. He was upset to know that the Egyptian Egyptian Egyptians had been very useful in clearing the remains of the first cemetery, because that meant that we would never know at all what happened in the first phase of the Central Kingdom. Then I thought about the construction of garbage on the streets of Cairo, and how wonderful it would be for archaeologists to dig this great city and find a layer of constant human activity in the future.
I was also reminded that the protection of the piles of ancient trash may have been the greatest discovery of ancient texts. People from Tollmek, Roman and Byzantine oxyrenechus in Egypt’s Femino region had lost their unwanted papy in a large pile for more than a thousand years. When it was excavated at the end of 19Third And 20 earlyThird For centuries, the rest of the scrap has been found to preserve extraordinary writings, from unmanaged gospels, tragic and humorous plays, epic poetry, scientific articles, and tax studies to willing, letters and maternal abnormal writings.
When the dumps of Oxyrenechs were excavated a century ago, they turned out to be filled with thousands of pieces of ancient papaya, who have provided a vast work of information and are still being studied today.

Of course, recycling is an important part of modern denial management, and it was also compatible with ancient Egypt. The essential parts of entertainment devices such as Mimi Mask were made of a material called cartoonja, consisting of ancient linen or papayar layers, which were placed with plaster, and then painted. Used papaya was often recycled, which presented his purpose as a written level and was then rejected. The texts they tolerate often survive, though they are difficult to read. In the past, some people have committed a disgusting offense to destroy the cartoon to get the text, but as a result, the development of new, multi -spectrumic imaging techniques has been allowed, which is allowed to read the text without any harm to the text.
Perhaps the garbage is not so bad.
