Archeologists use the term "Caddo" to refer to the many archaeological sites and abundant material remains that the ancestors of the modern Caddo peoples left behind over a large area of four different states, including eastern Texas, northwestern Louisiana, southwestern Arkansas, and eastern Oklahoma, traditionally centered on the Red River and its tributary streams. That record is marked by the remains of farmsteads, hamlets, villages, family and community cemeteries, and many small and large mound centers with public structures on and off mound platforms, plazas, and the burials of the social and political elite in and off mounds, as well as a rich material culture, especially their well-crafted ceramic wares. The peoples that lived in this area shared a common cultural heritage and native history that spanned more than a millennium.

"Focusing on early social media in the arts and humanities and on the core role of creative computer scientists, artists, and scholars in shaping the pre-Web social media landscape, Social Media Archeology and Poetics documents social media lineage, beginning in the 1970s with collaborative ARPANET research, Community Memory, PLATO, Minitel, and ARTEX and continuing into the 1980s and beyond with the Electronic Café, Art Com Electronic Network, Arts Wire, The THING, and many more. With first person accounts from pioneers in the field, as well as papers by artists, scholars, and curators, Social Media Archeology and Poetics documents how these platforms were vital components of early social networking and important in the development of new media and electronic literature. It describes platforms that allowed artists and musicians to share and publish their work, community networking diversity, and the creation of footholds for the arts and humanities online. And it invites comparisons of social media in the past and present, asking: What can we learn from early social media that will inspire us to envision a greater cultural presence on contemporary social media?"

The scientific discipline of archeology has gone through various stages of its development and improvement of research methods. First, it was combined with ancient history and the history of art. In the mid-nineteenth century, the base of its chronology was on biblical events. Modernist archeology of the twentieth century focused on classifying monuments and reconstructing cultural processes. In the second half of the twentieth century, archeology inspired other disciplines of culture and science to "stratigraphically" look at their own history. In this way, the stratification of scientific thought (archeology of knowledge), the history of photography (archeology of photography), and the media (archeology of media) began to be analyzed. Archeology has become a cognitive metaphor in contemporary culture. Lack of knowledge of the theoretical and methodological achievements worked out by archaeologists may, after some time, lead to the trivialization and petrification of the archaeological metaphor, although today it still seems fresh and innovative for "archeology of media," "archeology of photography," or "archeology of modernism."

The paper focuses on the study of unpublished documents about the archaeological sites of Siberia by the German natural scientist from Danzig, doctor of medicine Daniel Gottlieb Mes­serschmidt, who made the first scientific expedition to the Northeast of Eurasia (1719–1727) as instructed by Peter the Great. The preserved expeditionary sketches, not distorted by any subsequent engraving, are critical as they represent the first graphic reflection of ample archaeo­logical and epigraphic sites of Siberia discovered by the traveller. The documents helped to remodel not only D.G. Messerschmidt's archaeological collection, but also the archaeological compilations of the first Russian public museum. The research helped to collect a complete set of graphic materials depicting the archeological sites of the first combined expedition to Siberia. It proves that D.G. Messerschmidt's collection (370 artefacts) received by the Kunstkamera was the most representative Siberian archaeological collection not only in Russia of that time, but in the whole world.

This article discusses the historical and philosophical forms of the existence of the fundamental onto-epistemological deception, in other words, archaeological exposition genealogy prospects fundamental onto-epistemological deception. The article related the "disintegration" of being and the "deconstruction" of metaphysics with the elimination of transcendentas something that is outside the subject-object relationship. Outside of the subject-object relationship was placed nothing, and being became nothing in next time. There are based on this think make conclusion about the dissolution of human in discourse and breakup of social role from a human. There are briefly shows the history of the relation of text and reality. There are tried to present postmodern philosophy in classical terms, near to the Hegelian. This explication helped define the concept of "simulacrum" through the concept of «thing (ens)" (ontic definition). Simulacrum is thing (ens) that cannot go out of possibility into reality due to the collapse of being, but differs by Difference like thing into unbeing. Such thing (ens) is false in nature, as there is no being (being is the truth). During the presentation there is a comparison of classical and post-modern philosophy.
