Japan once had to rewrite its history textbooks because their most celebrated archaeologist had been burying his own discoveries the night before he dug them up.
His name was Shinichi Fujimura. He wasn’t even formally trained. He worked at a factory and taught himself archaeology as a hobby in his spare time.
In 1981, he made his first big discovery. Then another. Then another. By his fifties he’d worked on over 150 dig sites and found something important at almost every single one.
The objects kept getting older. The history of human life in Japan kept getting pushed further back because of him. Some of his sites were declared national heritage landmarks. One small town near a dig even invented a souvenir drink called Early Man. His colleagues nicknamed him “Divine Hands.”
A few archaeologists quietly thought it was strange that one man kept finding things nobody else could. They were mostly told to keep quiet.
Then in the year 2000, journalists from a Japanese newspaper got a tip. They hid cameras at one of his dig sites overnight. The next morning they had footage of him in the dark, digging little holes and placing objects he’d brought from home.
He confessed. He’d been doing it for nearly twenty years. Across forty-two different sites.
Museums quietly took his finds off display. Schoolbooks were rewritten again, this time to remove him. The man who’d given his country a deeper past had made the whole thing up.

Time for 90 minutes of one of the very, very best now, 28 years ago:
This is the great Andrew Weatherall (RIP) - BloodSugar 2 Mix, February 1998
'Bloodsugar' was a dub techno and deep house project by Andrew Weatherall and Dave Harrow that ran from 1996 to 2001. The first mix was his 96 Essential mix, and this is number two in the series. Proper dub techno on this. Tracklist in comments.
Reminder that all mixes uploaded here today go on my Kofi for download tonight.
