About

Mark Melni

Mark Melni of Twin Falls, Idaho is the owner of Melni Connectors and the creator of Armchair Archaeologist.

Independent Research and Practical Experimentation

Armchair Archaeologist is Mark's place to present archaeological ideas, working theories, prototypes, and observations in a clear and serious format. The current focus is his preliminary hypothesis regarding Kiva architecture and possible vacuum-assisted water extraction from shallow aquifers.

Project Purpose

The goal is to invite discussion, testing, and review. The site is built to make the theory easy to understand, easy to share, and easy to improve as new evidence or experiments become available.
