Description

Thousand Old Year Campfire, Or Old Morris Cave: A Continuous Use Campsite in Mammoth Cave National Park, an Excavation
Published by Tim Hutchings

This is a game designed as a regionally produced archaeology journal. In this solo game you are creating the results of an excavation of a cave mouth which has been a frequently used campsite for thousand or more years. You do this backwards, building up history from the bedrock up. You will roll a die and add dirt by drawing in your own strata chart, building the cave floor upwards over time. At some points there will be archaeological finds “uncovered”; you will operate a flowchart to learn about that find and how it came to be there.

Sample flowchart and finished strata chart:
