Archaeology

Archaeology is the scientific study of human history and prehistory through the excavation, analysis, and interpretation of material remains, such as artifacts, structures, and cultural landscapes. It aims to reconstruct past human behaviors, societies, and cultures by examining physical evidence left behind by previous civilizations. Archaeologists utilize various methods and technologies, including surveying, excavation, dating techniques, and laboratory analysis, to uncover and understand the context and significance of these remnants. The discipline often involves interdisciplinary approaches, drawing from history, anthropology, art history, and geology, to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the human past across different time periods and geographical areas.
