In my will, I'm going to ask that I be buried in soft mud in a river delta, or some similar place likely to become sedimentary rock in the far future. But I also want to be buried with some relic that proves I was a member of a technically literate civilization. I surmise something like a wooden abacus. The wooden abacus would fossilize along with my remains. I hope my fossil, and the fossilized object I carry, will be found in the far future.
- BitwiseFool 4y agoCynically, with how much trash there is around rivers you're likely to be fossilized within a strata chock full of traces of our civilization. Non-cynically, I would recommend having a stone abacus crafted if you wish to be buried this way - effectively mineralize the relic manually and don't leave its fossilization up to chance. You could also try encasing some objects into amber or resin and scattering them around your final resting place.
