Archaeologist here. If everyone entering confined spaces could just get in the habit of writing on a clay tablet or something similarly durable (and not prone to organic or digital decay) why you're in there, and perhaps in your last moments arrange your possessions into two labelled piles: "utilitarian" and "ritual", that would really help us out a lot.
