About the Author

Unknown Truck

A

new excavation site has been emerged near Nagpur. Dozens of archaeologists are doing research. While laborers are digging holes. Archaeologists are wearing a dark brown long uniform with the label ‘Vidarbha Archaeology Survey Team (VAST)’ and a hat.

Archeologist 1 says, Someone has found a big piece of bone here. It's so big that no present animal can possess it.

Archeologist 2 says, Which kind of animal is this, is difficult to confirm.

Archeologist 1 says sarcastically, What our honorable paleontologist Rekha mam say about this?

They both are giggling.

Rekha with brown medium hair in clip accessorized with cat-eye specs comes there wearing a formal blue shirt which is sleeved up and trousers.

Rekha interfering and with scary eyes says, I think it is of Rajasaurus Narmadensis .

They both stopped giggling.

Archeologist 3 asked, What is that?

Rekha, Rajasaurus was an Indian Carnivorous Dinosaur.

Archeologist 3 with excitement, That's so cool.

Rekha said, I've called Dr. Binod Ray. We will discuss it with him.

Archeologist 1, Dr. Binod! But he isn't an archeologist. What can he contribute?

Rekha, Yeah he is not a professional archeologist. But he is a Genius. He knows everything.

Archeologist 2 said in a teasing manner, Hmmm, you have a secret crush on him, don't you?

Rekha gave him a scary look and he stopped teasing.

Archeologist 3, Be serious guys. This could be a revolutionary discovery. Focus on fossils.

A big Mercedes-Benz arrives. Everyone is looking at it. It is a kinda center of attraction. The driver comes out of the car and opens the back door. From the car, Dr. Binod Ray is coming out. He is wearing blue velvet Italian suit with a red tie and Rolex with blue shades on his eyes. He is taking out his shades removing his suit and handing them to the driver. Then he is coming toward them while rolling up his sleeve. Rekha is looking at him like some kind of rockstar is coming. Other archaeologists were again looking at her and teasing her with their expressions.

Dr. Binod comes close to the archeological team and says, Good afternoon everyone. Yesterday I attended International Science Conference at Bengaluru. Birju(Driver) was driving all night. I arrived in Nagpur just now.

Archaeologists 1, What was the subject?

Binod replies with a smile, "It's a coincidence that I was giving a lecture on the origin of human society and its evolution. And now I am on an excavation site.'

Archeologist 2 says, Awesome! Can I ask which field of scientist are you? 

Binod, That's a tricky question. Because I have 4 Ph.D.in astrophysics, evolution, Inorganic chemistry, and economics. And I have written 25 research papers on different fields of science and other fields.

Rekha, Enough questions Ashish. Sir let me show you the fossils.

Then she shows him the fossils. Binod is exclaimed because of the size. He is taking interest in it and exploring more.

Binod, Show me the report you've made.

Rekha, Sure.

Rekha is taking him to the tent and sitting down and is showing him the report. Binod is wearing the glasses. And looking at papers with amusement.

Binod, Interesting. The skeleton structure shows that it's a Rajasaurus clearly. But the age of bones is found to be 2000 years old!

Rekha, How could that be possible? They were extinct millions of years ago, then how could this Fossil be 2000 years old?

Binod, Yes. Is there any calculation error?

Rekha, We've rechecked several times. So that can't be the case.

Binod, Hmmm. I have a hypothesis. Is it possible that when this animal was alive millions of years ago then it was stuck in ice and ice preserved its body? Then suddenly ice melted due to some kind of strange radiation then it appeared again.

Rekha laughs a bit and says, That sounded like a sci-fi movie. It reminds me of Captain America.

Binod also laughed a bit and said, Captain America was a dramatized story but it can be possible in real life. Although there were no past pieces of evidence but still.

Rekha, Uhh hmmm.

Binod, You know what, I'll come tomorrow with a more logical hypothesis.

Rekha, Haha.

Binod, I am a bit tired. You know that conference thing. You can hand me the Xerox of your report. I'll take a deep look.

Rekha, Sure.

They both get out of the tent.

Rekha says to Ashish(Archeologist 2), Make a Xerox of the report and put it in his car.

Ashish, Absolutely. And I'll make sure to make a pink heart at the end of Xerox.

Rekha hit him with a report on his head. And then he laughed.

Binod then leaves the site and arrives at home. He is entering his bedroom and sees his wife Gopi studying books. Gopi is in a blue sari with a choti. The books are about the ancient Indian languages and she is a well-known Linguistic with an understanding of many languages.

Binod, You still haven't finished Prakrit, Avadhi, and Magadhi?

Gopi, You are talking like you are fluent in them.

Binod nodes his head with innocence.

Gopi asked, When did you learn them?

Binod makes expressions like he is trying to remember and says, Hmm, about a month ago. When you bought all these books.

Gopi with a little impressed and jealous voice, You son of a gun. You always want to be the first in a race. And this isn't even a race.

Binod, Come on man, I was getting bored and needed something to entertain.

Gopi in loving voice says, Ya ya.

Binod asks, By the way, where is my laptop?

Gopi in a sarcastic voice replied, I've washed it in the Washing machine and then dried it on your table.

Binod, Ha ha. Nice joke.

Then he baths himself and after lunch sleeps for long as he is tired a lot.

His room is full of trophies and medals seems like a person with a lot of talent and knowledge in different fields.

The next day Gopi is trying to wake him up in a little bit confused manner.

Binod asks, What happened? Is anything wrong?

Gopi replies, You must watch this by yourself. Come outside with me.

He is wiping his mouth with a towel and runs outside in a
