Maybe, but more likely they will read the records from today (we are much better at archiving) and wish they could find someone to sponsor them to do the same. They will of course criticize something - that with some discovery we don't yet have - they know was done wrong.

I am sure you're probably right on the last part. And that would be in very poor taste considering that one of the aim of Guedelon is to act as a research project and validate hypotheses.

They won't be able to read the records due to physical bit rot of any public archives making it through the narrow path to the future, and of course the absence of most material behind paywalls that won't be in any public archives that substantially survive. They'll get more from acid-free paper archives under mountains than anything digital I expect.

There is a really good winery in Napa Valley, called Castello di Amorosa. Really good wine, and it is also built as a medieval castle. I bet there are more places like that around the world.

"Medieval castle". Like the home of two friends near me, in Wexford PA. Quarter-scale replica of a real English castle.

Towers, parapets, (non-working) drawbridge (weighing tons, and already on its second timbering). Murder slits and a secret staircase...

Fully modern wiring, plumbing, and inner structure (faux stone facade). But a "medieval castle".

A major archaeology project went on in Mexico to excavate a pyramid.

Not a ziggurat-style Mayan temple.

An Egyptian pyramid. Built for the movie Cleopatra.

Er, do you have more details on that? From my understanding, Cleopatra (the 1963 film with Elizabeth Taylor) was filmed primarily in Italy and I don’t recall seeing any actual pyramids in it.

I think this was the 1934 Cecil B. DeMille version they are referring to.
