Thaum npaj lub koob yees duab rau thawj lub kaum sab xis dav hauv lub kwj dej, kuv tau taug kev mus rau Ann Earl tus tub xeeb ntxwv 58 xyoo Ben Gail, uas yog tus kws pab tswv yim sau ntawv laus rau kev tsim khoom."Qhov no yog qhov tshwj xeeb tshaj plaws rau Ann, qhov chaw uas nws zoo siab tshaj plaws thiab tau ua qee yam ntawm nws txoj haujlwm tseem ceeb tshaj plaws," Gell hais.“Nws rov qab mus rau lub hav dej ntau zaus thiab sau hais tias nws yeej tsis zoo ib yam li ob zaug.Lub teeb, lub caij, thiab huab cua ib txwm hloov.Kuv niam tiag tiag tau xeeb ntawm no thaum lub sij hawm archaeological excavations, tej zaum unsurprisingly, Nws loj hlob los ua ib tug archaeologist.

"
Pab neeg tau tsiv mus rau lub hav txwv yeem.Cov neeg ua haujlwm tau ntim cov koob yees duab thiab muab tso rau ntawm qhov chaw siab siab, npaj rau kev tuaj txog ntawm Tus Qauv T. Lub ntuj yog xiav, cov phab ntsa ntawm lub hav yog ocher liab, thiab cov paj ntoo nplooj loj hlob ci ntsuab.Voorhees muaj hnub nyoog 30 xyoo xyoo no, slim, nrog cov plaub hau xim av curly thiab hooked nta, hnav luv, T-shirt thiab lub kaus mom dav-brimmed straw.Nws paced rov qab thiab tawm ntawm lub puam."Kuv ntseeg tsis tau tias peb nyob ntawm no tiag tiag," nws hais.
Qhov no yog qhov kawg ntawm ntau xyoo ntawm kev ua haujlwm hnyav los ntawm cov kws sau ntawv, cov thawj coj, cov tsim khoom thiab cov neeg ua lag luam.Nrog kev pab los ntawm nws tus tij laug John thiab nws niam nws txiv, Voorhees tau tsa ntau lab nyiaj daus las hauv kev tsim cov peev nyiaj los ntawm ntau dua 75 tus neeg ua lag luam, muag lawv ib zaug.Tom qab ntawd tuaj txog Covid-19 kis thoob qhov txhia chaw, uas ncua tag nrho cov phiaj xwm thiab hais kom Voorhees nce ntxiv $ 1 lab txhawm rau them tus nqi ntawm cov cuab yeej tiv thaiv tus kheej (qhov ncauj qhov ntswg, hnab looj tes pov tseg, tshuaj ntxuav tes, thiab lwm yam), uas yuav tsum tau tiv thaiv kaum ob.

Voorhees 'touchstone cov ntawv sai sai tau dhau los ua ob phau ntawv sau los ntawm Ann Morris: "Kev khawb hauv Yucatan Peninsula" (1931), uas npog nws thiab Earl lub sijhawm hauv Chichén Itzá (Chichén Itzá) Lub sijhawm dhau mus, thiab "Kev khawb hauv Southwest" (1933) ), qhia txog lawv cov kev paub hauv plaub lub ces kaum thiab tshwj xeeb tshaj yog Canyon del Muerto.Ntawm cov autobiographical tej hauj lwm uas muaj sia nyob—vim cov tshaj tawm tsis lees paub tias cov poj niam tuaj yeem sau ib phau ntawv ntawm archaeology rau cov neeg laus, yog li lawv raug muag rau cov me nyuam loj—Morris txhais txoj hauj lwm no yog "xa mus rau lub ntiaj teb" Kev cawm dim nyob rau hauv ib qho chaw deb los kho. cov nplooj ntawv tawg ntawm autobiography. "Tom qab tsom ntsoov rau nws kev sau ntawv, Voorhees txiav txim siab tsom mus rau Ann.“Nws yog nws lub suab hauv cov ntawv ntawd.Kuv pib sau tsab ntawv. "
Lub suab ntawd yog cov lus qhia thiab tso cai, tab sis kuj muaj sia nyob thiab lom zem.Hais txog nws txoj kev hlub ntawm thaj chaw deb hav zoov, nws tau sau rau hauv kev khawb av nyob rau sab qab teb sab hnub poob, "Kuv lees tias kuv yog ib tus neeg raug suav tsis txheeb ntawm kev mob hypnosis nyob rau sab qab teb sab hnub poob-qhov no yog kab mob ntev, tuag taus thiab kho tsis tau."
Hauv "Excavation in Yucatan", nws piav txog peb "cov cuab yeej tsim nyog" ntawm archaeologists, uas yog shovel, tib neeg lub qhov muag, thiab kev xav - cov no yog cov cuab yeej tseem ceeb tshaj plaws thiab cov cuab yeej siv tau yooj yim tshaj plaws.."Nws yuav tsum tau ua tib zoo tswj hwm los ntawm cov ntaub ntawv muaj tseeb thaum tswj kom muaj dej txaus los hloov thiab hloov kho raws li qhov tseeb tshiab tau nthuav tawm.Nws yuav tsum tau tswj hwm los ntawm kev nruj nruj thiab kev nkag siab zoo, thiab… Kev ntsuas tshuaj ntawm lub neej yog ua raws li kev saib xyuas ntawm kws tshuaj.

Xav txog txoj kev lag luam loj thoob plaws ntiaj teb, tag nrho cov neeg taug kev xav paub, cov tub lag luam siab hlob thiab cov tub rog, uas tam sim no tsis nco qab tag nrho rau kev yeej lossis swb."
Thaum Voorhees nug Ann ntawm University of Colorado hauv Boulder, nws feem ntau hnov cov lus teb tib yam-nrog ntau lo lus, vim li cas leej twg yuav txhawj txog Earl Morris tus poj niam qaug cawv?Txawm hais tias Ann tau dhau los ua neeg haus dej haus cawv loj heev hauv nws xyoo tom qab, qhov teeb meem kev lim hiam no tseem qhia txog qhov uas Ann Morris txoj haujlwm tau raug tsis nco qab, tsis quav ntsej, lossis txawm tias obliterated.
Inga Calvin, tus xibfwb ntawm anthropology ntawm University of Colorado, tau sau ib phau ntawv hais txog Ann Morris, feem ntau raws li nws cov ntawv.Nws tau hais tias "Nws yog ib tus kws tshawb fawb keeb kwm zoo tshaj plaws nrog kev kawm qib siab hauv tsev kawm qib siab thiab kev kawm hauv Fab Kis, tab sis vim tias nws yog poj niam, nws tsis tau mob siab rau," nws hais.“Nws yog ib tug hluas, zoo nkauj, muaj sia nyob uas nyiam ua rau tib neeg zoo siab.Nws tsis pab.Nws nrov archaeology los ntawm cov phau ntawv, thiab nws tsis pab.Cov kws tshawb fawb archaeologists saib tsis taus cov neeg nyiam.Qhov no yog ib tug ntxhais khoom rau lawv.

Voorhees pom nws zoo li ib tug poj niam nyob rau xyoo pua 21st uas tau tso tseg thaum ntxov xyoo pua 20th."Hauv nws lub neej, nws raug tsis saib xyuas, saib xyuas, thuam thiab txhob txwm cuam tshuam, vim hais tias archaeology yog ib tug tub hluas lub club," nws hais."Qhov piv txwv classic yog nws cov ntawv.Lawv tau sau meej meej rau cov neeg laus uas kawm tiav qib siab, tab sis lawv yuav tsum tau luam tawm raws li cov menyuam yaus cov phau ntawv. "
Voorhees nug Tom Felton (paub zoo tshaj plaws rau kev ua si Draco Malfoy hauv Harry Potter movies) ua si Earl Morris.Tus tsim zaj duab xis Ann Morris (Ann Morris) ua si Abigail Lawrie, 24-xyoo-laus Scottish-yug actress yog nto moo rau British TV ua yeeb yam "Tin Star", thiab cov tub ntxhais hluas ntawm archaeologists muaj striking lub cev zoo sib xws.Voorhees tau hais tias "Nws zoo li peb tau yug dua tshiab Ann,""Nws zoo kawg thaum koj ntsib nws."
