The thought that some future archeologist/paleontologist might be confused for a few seconds by finding prehistoric remains amongst 20th century human was slightly amusing.

Now there's a thought. Maybe we should all be buried with our collections of "stuff" to see us off happily into any afterlife, like Saxon kings. In 1000 years' time visiting alien archaeologists, studying what's left of this planet, would formulate all sorts of interesting theories as to what it was all about...
