Discovering World History Trough Curiosities

[Naeght]

Mostly an useless idea, but it might be an interesting source of mineable curiosities and easter eggs.
Think of it like this, we have found fossil remains while mining, which means quite a few things. The world wasn't created for us, life existed before us, and the land we now inhabit was once under sea. (Or the gods placed fossils to test our faith!!!!)
Basically, a train of thought for new curiosities, and a way to waste time while the server is down developing hypothesis about the development of the world, maybe even a few easter eggs like the remains from a famous warrior or the ruins of a raided village from previous worlds (Like the statues).
Please keep in mind that this wouldn't affect gameplay in any way, but you must consider if this might manage to involve you more on the "world" of the game.

(Excuse the simplicity and probably redundancy of some sentences, buts its 3am and i can't manage to think properly, especially in my second language)

it would be great to be able to dig up fossils while mining, and being fossils i'd have to say that they should give a fairly high base lp

the remains of ancient warriors from previous worlds would most likley just be a joke by jorb and loftar but i like the idea

Ancient rusted weaponry used by ancient warriors.
Maybe they give a recipe for actual creation of actual equipments but is very intelligence intensive and extremely rare to find while mining.
Can't be equipped anyways.

Like finding a buried short sword that was designed in a skilled ways, studying it to learn partially how to craft parts of it, and after studying several of these items, you figured out how to craft them (not exact copies, but generic weaponry based off of them).

Maybe for sword making, have the generic bronze sword possible to craft, but require studying to unlock the other weapons?

This is so a village with heaps of steel can't arm a army without actually making a effort to learn how to do so.

If we're going to make late game weapons locked until you put some efforts, why not add more primitive early game weapons like clubs and the sorts?
