Poster Stuff

It seems that we've neglected the category of "stuff" in our blog.  Not anymore!  Let me show you some archaeology-themed posters.  Fine Art America has quite a selection.  The posters feature beautiful shots of ancient ruins, such as the Colosseum and Machu Picchu:

There's also posters with ancient objects, like Egyptian hieroglyphs, Chinese terra cotta soldiers, and cave paintings:

And then there's posters that don't seem to have anything to do with archaeology...

Oh, Fine Art America search engine.  I wanted posters on archaeology.

And why would people want to buy these?  People who would purchase these could be hanging them up as art or using them to remind them of their travels.  One thing that people probably aren't doing is thinking about these places or objects from an archaeological perspective.  People don't normally look at their posters and use them to study the past (at least, I think they don't).  But people are somehow drawn to the past, whether they feel a special connection or are just intrigued.  Whatever the reason, people continue to buy and companies continue to make money.
