This is an idea for a history project that will throw old newspaper clippings or photocopies of them and other historical text and objects like old product containers or an old piece of period dress or something historical that is valueless like that all over the place. The history group will get fines for littering but they will happily pay them knowing that they are keeping history alive.

I got a page like that on face book but it is free. Though I don't think anyone cares about old inventions.

+. Not that I like the idea too much, but its genuinely from yesterday.

Really only works as instructional litter, if the outside looks like money, or, even more remotely, candy.

Old books are often thrown away. Especial old floppy disc. It would seem like many things old and historical wind up in the dump from floppies, old books and 386 computers. Historical litter was first found in Egypt called the Roseta Stone used for translating ancient Egyption.

In the antiques of Beth Shean, in Israel, there is a broken sewage pipe from the Roman period (circa 100 BC) with historical remnants in it.
