My wife came up with,
"To inspire the future, you have to respect/understand the past"
I like the armchair timetraveller idea, myself. Its both inspirational and captivating yet relevant....and pithy! And can be linked up with some interesting graphics. I'm awaiting red-wine time to gain some inspiration!
I can't decide whether to look at this as an exercise in selling archaeology and so try and see it through the eyes of a non-archaeologist, or to stop theorising and concentrate on short, sharp and pithy. At this particular minute I'm thinking of a front-end statement that attracts attention (short, sharp, pithy and graphic - P Prentice stylee) drawing in to a mission statement along the lines of Moreno's and an 'About' page which outlines the broader purpose and socio-economic-academic-politico background, similar to Andy Brockman's musings.
Still need the wine though......
