I don't know if anyone has had time to figure the strategy out yet, but...
I understand that when you get Archeology you can create archeologists (I know; I didn't spell that right!!) who will dig up the ancient ruins and maybe (?) find great works of art. So... What's the strategy when you find ancient ruins before this technology?? I've not been waiting since (except for the freakin' maps they sometimes give you!!) normally they give you some pretty valuable "stuff" for earlier in the game. The problem is... By the time I get Archeology there won't be any left except for overseas or on small islands...
So, what's the best strategy for handling them? Am I already getting the biggest bang for my buck in claiming them as soon as I find them? If it matters... While I inevitably win playing at the chieftain and warlord level, I REALLY like getting settlers and workers out of the ruins and typically play at "settler" (i.e. chicken poop) level. I will admit that it makes going to war pretty darn boring (though I REALLY like getting all the wonders -- even though that isn't much of a challenge ).
Thanks.
