Idea: Archeology

Archeologist at a dig. Unearths strata from about 300 million years ago. Finds remains of human civilization. The civilization seems to be as advanced and basically just like ours. Many of the artifacts are easily recognizable.

Alternating this story with the stroy of an everyday man in some day to day corporate job. It seems very prosaic. As we go through the day to day we discover certain things are just off. Certain names for things, expressions etc. The further into his story the more things become un recognizable to us.

That is the story of the civilization 300 million years ago.

I would imagine every Arceologist asks themseklves "what must a day in these peoples lives have been like?"
