What is it like to be excavating a house and suddenly uncover an unexpected tomb beneath the floor? What is it like to be working in an underwater world so remote that sunlight cannot reach it? What is it like to look across a mountain ridge brimming with plants previously unknown to science? And what is it like, after traveling so far and working so hard, to find nothing at all? Find out with expeditions @ fieldmuseum. Through email dispatches, video reports, interactive maps, and expedition photo galleries, Field Museum scientists share their explorations of the world around us.
Check out the latest treasures uncovered by Dr. Gary Feinman in the Valley of Oaxaca, Mexico. The interactive map now allows access to five years of discoveries with just a few clicks of a mouse.
