在1935年,Thornwell Jacobs博士由於在進行古文明研究時總面臨資訊不足或前人資訊錯誤的瓶頸。為了給後人更棒的研究基底他就在美國喬治亞州亞特蘭大市製作了自己所謂的「文明大地窖」,把世上最奇怪的古物全部收藏在其中,以時空膠囊的形式等著後人來探索。

其中收藏的古董中,有一個櫃子裡包含了超過200個怪誕的神奇的搜集品,奇特到讓人看了都覺得,你確定這都是真的嗎?

還有好幾十個代表各個時代的科技發明,每個搜集家看到心中應該雀躍不已!

這是Thornwell Jacobs博士驕傲滿意地與自己的成品合照的模樣!

當時,想要創文明大地窖的初衷就是要以前所未有的方法去保存古物,做出名符其實的「時空膠囊」,讓後代的人挖出這些奇物時充滿挖到寶的驚奇感!
![The idea for the Crypt was to preserve things in a way that they hadn't been before,a veritable time capsule for people to use for reference in the future.](http://teepr.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/5630af8f51a94.jpg)

而其中的一些古物舉例來說就有:老電影、電影膠卷、假牙模型、黑膠唱片、人造花與各個珠寶等等寶物不計其數啊!

這全部的寶物都深藏於美國Oglethorpe大學厚重的鋼門之後,感覺真的太神祕了啊!
