I always used to half-joke over at Archaeologica that in 10,000 years archaeologists will find Mount Rushmore and jump to the conclusion that these were our 'gods.'
Then, they will find the foundation for the snack bar, gift shop, and rest rooms and determine that it was the mortuary temple and the plumbing was to catch the blood of sacrificial victims.
Archaeology does have its blinders but it is still a huge jump to attributing those things to "aliens."
