Well, I doubt I’ve got any ideas that the might Pinterest doesn’t contain...but the way I’d do it...
Make a bunch of coil and pinch pits, then break them. Flake stone to produce a pile of waste ( don’t worry about a product but that’s a plus if you could manage). Place inorganic artifacts in implied relationships to each other and what would be long deteriorated organic elements. Toss chicken bones down. Pile small brush and set the whole put display on fire- brush away some char, and apply a red or rust colored pigment. Sprinkle sparingly with weathered beads.
Add a tent and a screen sifter, maybe grid stakes and line, leave a trowel and a small brush, set of dental picks - the usual, lol.
A still picture of that would make for a pretty good convo piece, too, IMO. The Wife and I were talking about it this am, be fun for her and the kids to play with her new camera.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
