So, I'm rather pressed for time- but I'll see what I can put up.

And no, I am not. I am an expert on classical mythology and religion (basically ancient sociology). My second PHD is in more the archaeological field, however.
I'm the guy that interprets the shit they find in the terms of how it fit into their culture.
I also do work as a Human Osteologist and Zooarchaeologist.

The reason I ask is I am an archaeologist. I run a culutral resource division for the Army. My specialty is Southwest Archaeology, but in particular Jornada Mogollon culture. I also do work as a Human Osteologist and Zooarchaeologist.
Sounds like what you are doing is quite cool!

Wasn't me!! Actually, I spent several million dollars on archaeology the last couple of years. Other installations are dumbfounded when they hear what my budget is. I'm good at squeezing money out of these fucking jarheads for stuff unrelated to killing everyone
