Actually I was surprised that I came up with a quick answer.
I would photograph archaeological sites throughout the Americas
starting in southern Mexico and working south. The sites that I know of are
too many to list.
Camera body is easy - LX - reason, can go mechanical if need to and
it can take the humidity and dirt. It has already photographed many a site
in that area and is proven.
From what I have the lenses would be:
Pentax-F 28 f2.8 - only wide angle I have and 50mm won't cut
it
Pentax-FA Macro 100 f2.8
For this assignment I would probably try to get a wider angle -
Limited lens possibly or a 20 or 24.
