Anthropology 101

If he were being honest, Milo was more than a little nervous to begin teaching his first ever class of his life. Sure, he'd shown off some of his collected relics and artifacts one on one with others before, but to teach a group that actually wanted to learn the things he was passionate about? The notion was almost enough to floor him! Humming a jolly tune to keep his nerves down, Milo bustled about the classroom he'd selected—a shallow cave that opened up to a thicket of trees and faced the ocean so he could teach indoors or outside as he pleased—and began to unload a few of the more basic relics he'd brought to his introductory lesson. What better way to get his students intrigued and enthused about studying the strange and alien creatures that came before them than with a paws-on lesson and exhibit they could interact with? Perhaps if he got enough interest, he'd be able to bring his class along for some excavation trips to some of the old ruins too!

Milo sat by a long, smooth stone slab he'd set up at the head of his classroom to act as a table, carefully arranging a few of his items out across its surface for curious eyes and paws to examine. He set out the silver multi-pronged tool, a metal necklace, and a solid metal cube with the crank broken off. These would be good starter items for his students to inspect. With all of his educational aids laid out, Milo puffed up his chest quite proudly and took a seat behind the stone slab, waiting for the first of his students to arrive.
