The Kaikoura Earthquake in November 2016. Imagine lying between the rails of a railway track and having a freight train pass over you - our whole HOUSE was shaking like that.
And we were HUNDREDS of kilometers away from the epicenter.
I’m an archaeologist.
Back in the 1700s this wasn’t really a thing. Although there were folk, usually educated people like vicars and wealthy land owners, who called themselves ‘antiquarians’.
This mostly involved them employing the local unemployed to hack away at old burial mounds/tombs looking for treasure. Buggering up the archaeology for us future scientists in the process!
You’ve just made an enemy for life!
