Global Time Capsules Commemorate Historical Milestones in Seoul, San Francisco, Edinburgh

News summary

Several significant time capsule projects have recently marked historical and cultural milestones around the world. In Seoul, Yongsan High School held a time capsule sealing ceremony commemorating the 80th anniversary of Korea's liberation, aimed at connecting past and future generations by including student and community contributions reflecting on historical values. In San Francisco, a time capsule buried beneath the Transamerica Pyramid in 1974 was rediscovered during renovations, containing artifacts like Polaroids, flyers, and even a cocktail recipe, offering a vivid glimpse into the 1970s era when the building was controversial. Edinburgh has also embraced this tradition through the North Bridge refurbishment project, interring a new time capsule with items such as letters from city leaders, a paintbrush used in restoration, a regimental cap, and local creative works; this builds on a previously buried but inaccessible capsule from the 1890s. The North Bridge project, a vital transport link and historic structure, has faced delays but is expected to complete next summer, with the capsule symbolizing the ongoing commitment to preserving the city's heritage for future generations. Together, these time capsules serve as cultural touchstones, linking communities across time through shared memory and legacy.
