Isn’t it something to think about? We’ve only got snippets of history from the last five or six thousand years, and even that history is full of gaps. Modern humans have been around for about 300,000 years, and other species of humans stretch back nearly 3 million years. We’ve unearthed cave art, burial rituals, and other evidence of early human life. And think about this: there are oral tales that have been passed down for at least 100,000 years. What stories might we be missing? What incredible narratives from those times have been lost to us?
I’m not suggesting that these early humans had complex societies like ours today, but they definitely had their own languages, cultures, and rituals. Imagine the tales they told, the myths they shared around fires, the communal experiences that defined their existence. There must be some amazing stories out there that we’ve never heard, stories that could give us a whole new understanding of our ancestors.
That’s where Ruins and Relics comes in. We’re here to bridge the gap between past and present by leveraging technology and community expertise. Our goal is to piece together these lost narratives, using everything from AI to satellite imagery to paint a fuller picture of our shared human saga. This is about more than just digging up artifacts; it’s about connecting with the past on a deeper level and preserving these stories for future generations.
We invite everyone—historians, archaeologists, tech experts, and anyone who’s curious about the past—to join us. Dive into this journey with Ruins and Relics as we explore the untold stories of human history. Together, let’s uncover these lost chapters and celebrate the richness and diversity of the human experience.
