When archaeologists dig in the ruins of ancient cities, they face a difficult puzzle. as they sort through the remains of big things like buildings and small everyday items, they have to figure. Future archaeologists may find smartphones, single use plastics, and packaged foods utterly puzzling. just as we try to reconstruct ancient lives from fragments and partial evidence, without context interpretations will be speculative, filtered through their own knowledge and imagination. In this special feature of pnas, we recognize several key landmarks in the growth of archaeological science as it continues to move forward as a discipline. we review several developments in the areas of radiometric dating, stable isotope and elemental analysis, and proteomics.

There are four interrelated myths common to archaeology: (1) archaeology is a neutral and objective exercise; (2) humans are selfish, competitive, and power hungry; (3) the current societal order was and is inevitable; and (4) things will inevitably be better (or worse) in the future. Suppose we wanted (in 2023) to create a "fake ruin" which would cause maximum confusion and disagreement among future archaeologists, let's say, with a 2,000 year time horizon. given what we know about how archeologists work, what would you build, where would you place it?. In this contribution to our periodic ‘archaeological futures’ series, lindsay m. montgomery and tiffany c. fryer reflect on the reshaping of archaeological praxis in the americas through recent developments in collaborative community engaged research. Explore how future archaeologists might wildly misinterpret our everyday objects, from fidget spinners to plastic waste. what will they make of our modern world without context?.
