Abstract
Few things are as interesting as seeing how people in the past imagined the future. ‘France in the Year 2000’ is one example. A series of paintings by Jean-Marc Côté, produced for the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris. The paintings were in the form of small cards, meant to be placed in cigar boxes, and humorously depicted what life would look like in our millennium. Many visions never materialized, such as scuba divers riding huge seahorses and winged police constables controlling airborne traf-fic. Others did. They foresaw the creation of war-planes, robots that clean your house
期刊介绍:
Norwegian Archaeological Review published since 1968, aims to be an interface between archaeological research in the Nordic countries and global archaeological trends, a meeting ground for current discussion of theoretical and methodical problems on an international scientific level. The main focus is on the European area, but discussions based upon results from other parts of the world are also welcomed. The comments of specialists, along with the author"s reply, are given as an addendum to selected articles. The Journal is also receptive to uninvited opinions and comments on a wider scope of archaeological themes, e.g. articles in Norwegian Archaeological Review or other journals, monographies, conferences.
