Today the
1E3 expedition team have found the remains of the KRSS civilization. This is
the greatest finding since the pyramid. We have found artifacts from the KRSS
civilisation relating to the well-preserved body of one of their leaders. We
were digging around the site where we found the body. We found things like mugs
and steel cans which they used to store liquid for drinking. We found spoons
and chopsticks which they used for eating. We also found very old currency
which meant that they had some kind of government. Markers were found which
meant that they had a form of writing which they used to communicate with one
another. A container which was used to store drugs was also found which meant
that they were quite an advanced civilisation to be able to find cures for
diseases. This was an amazing discovery; next we will be finding for ruins of
their building structures.

My
class just conducted an "archaeological dig" for our history class. Hypothetically, we are now in the year 2050 and we are exploring the "Kent Ridge Civilisation". At the dig site, we
uncovered evidence indicating that the "Kent Ridge Civilisation" had lived
with the modern age. Our findings and deductions are as follows:
A) Government and control
No supporting evidence found.
B) Occupations of the society'
No supporting evidence found.
C) Society
A piece of currency preserved in a sealed plastic bag identified
as "yuen"
was found. "Yuen" is identified as a Chinese currency used during the period. This may indicate that Singapore
during the "Kent Ridge Civilisation" may have used various
currencies. This deduction is based on the known prevailing fact that Singapore has
always been a
multi-racial society.
D) Sciences and the Arts
An interesting piece of accessory decorated with two
Chinese female characters was also found. This intriguing piece could be a hair decoration or
could also be an item used to run through the hair as a scalp massage device.
E) More Complex Beliefs
i)
An empty plastic
bottle was also found. It was labelled "Vitamin E: Natural Source".
This may indicate that the civilisation then believes in consuming direct, unprocessed source of
vitamin E as an effective way to stabilize their body cell membranes.
ii)
There was unrecognisable
script on the bottle which is currently being deciphered by our specialist team.
F) Form of Writing
Another
interesting object found was slender
and pen-like labelled "marker". This could likely be the primitive writing material of
2005. The body of the object is too thick to grip and the nib is too broad.
More
reports on future findings will be added on:
