demands considerably more
than exhaustive reading in
quiet libraries.
In Guatemala, recently, a
group Of young searchers took
diving equipment into the
deep jungle and brought up
treasures from the SaCrifical
well Of a ruined temple. The
physical hazards were quite
staggering.
Ancient Ships
Elsewhere, some young peo-
pie, endowed with a deep
sense of history. have been
skin-diving off the coast Of
Turkey. Their finds: the re-
mains of the oldest Pheo-
nician ships with their car
goes Of 1000 years ago, ships
in which Homer'S heroes
would have felt at. home.
From steaming jungle to
craggy mountaintop, from
ocean bed to windblown
desert. the fields Of mans
growth and self-inflicted de-
struction beckon to the hardy
Sleuths Of ancient history and
lost traditions.
The laboratory's techniques
then come into play. Carbon
IA and the Geiger counter
can date many excavated
pieces Of the great puzzle.
Astronamy can date a ruin
oriented to the stars, as many
were. Cryptography can help
to piece out lost languages,
such as that of the Etruscans
whom the Romans destroyed.
Geology. the knowledge of
ocean currents. the under
standing of the grand pat
terms Of the earth's weather,
an intimate familiarity with
the arts and the styles of
every people and culture, an
understanding Of mans reli-
gions, all this is needed If we
are to re-weave the pattern
Of mans growth upon this
planet.
In what way is this useful?
Past Comes Alive
Think for an instant. We
do not quibble about what
Independence Hall will mean
to our descendants if we can
hand it on to them together
with the liberties formulated
there. If, in wisdom, we
meet our present challenges
we will not make of Inde-
pendence Hall a target for
future archaeologists search
ing through ruins to discover
why we were once great and
then neglected to preserve
such greatness.
The past, we hope, was diff
ferent. Under the magnify
ing glass Of the archaeologist
it comes alive, to tell of why
great moments of mans
ascent can create the COM
placency which lets the looter
in.
The archaeologist tells us
one more thing as he puzzles
out the ruins of the past: He
brings back from his quest
the story of mans immortal
spirit, reaching, now as al
ways, to the stars.
