...lead the nation in the study of medieval archeology too.” Carver, who garnered fame for his 10-year excavation of the medieval burial site, spoke about the history of Sutton Hoo’s excavation. The site attracted the attention of archeologists in 1939 when a spirit medium directed an amateur to a ceremonially buried ship, Carver said. But Sutton Hoo remained untouched until Carver’s excavation in 1983, he added. Carver discovered additional burial sites and the graves of several executed men, he said in the lecture.

Going outside the system to save the system may be somewhat unpalatable...
...white. (I won’t try to explain the significant positive correlation between red states on this map and those on a traditional red-blue map. The political repercussions are beyond this piece.) Coming in 47th out of 50 states, the state that puts “The Spirit of America” on its license plates had a 24 percent college volunteering rate, 6.5 percent below the national average and better than only New York, Nevada, and Georgia—a rare political outlier...
