We received hundreds of responses—thanks to everyone who gave us their input. We are now going through your comments and suggestions, but I thought you might like a quick take.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the first archaeology books I read was Brian Fagan’s Corridors Through Time, an engaging introduction to the subject. Perhaps you have read something by Fagan. Committed to bringing archaeology out of academia and to the general public, he’s written many books geared toward a &#8220;popular” audience. These works, combining authoritativeness and accessibility, have [...]]]></description>

In 1925, the British explorer and surveyor Percy Fawcett set off into the Brazilian jungle in search of a remnant of Atlantean civilization. Along with him in this ill-fated mission were his son Jack and his son’s best friend. None of them returned. A Hollywood version of this pathetic story—due out next year and starring [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m very happy to be back blogging here in this space.  Starting today, I’ll be posting here on the last Friday of every month.  Before I begin, however, I’d like to thank the readers who tracked me down and sent me emails asking why I stopped.   I’ll try not to disappear again.

		<description><![CDATA[Our special Egypt issue is now with the printer! While working on it, I took some books off my shelf and read what various 19th-century travelers and ex-patriots said about Egypt and the emotional impact its monuments had on them. Of course I turned to Mark Twain’s Innocents Abroad (1869) first. Surprisingly, the humorist was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The announcement this week that ancient footprints were found beneath a 1,700-year-old mosaic in Lod, Israel, raises some interesting, if not always serious, thoughts. Basically, the mosaic (covering about 180 square meters) was being lifted from the ground for conservation and eventual display. In the mortar bed in which the mosaic tiles were set, conservators [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s hard to put the Blanding, Utah, looting and antiquities trafficking case in perspective. Here are the bare numbers: some $336,000 spent by an informant to acquire artifacts during an investigation that lasted more than two years; two dozen people arrested, most from Blanding and half in their 60s and 70s; and two suicides.

From words in our day-to-day vocabulary to names and places, the ancient past is embedded in language, and sometimes in surprising or humorous ways.

With our January/February 2007 issue we began compiling and publishing a list of what we think are the top ten archaeological discoveries each year. Choosing them is an interesting exercise here at our office. We all have our favorites, and there’s always debate over whether some new find is really important or simply flashy. Now [...]]]></description>
