Archaeology

Archaeology is the scientific study of human history and prehistory through the excavation and analysis of artifacts, structures, and other physical remains. It involves the systematic recovery and examination of material culture, such as tools, pottery, bones, and other remnants of past societies, to understand their behaviors, cultural practices, and evolution over time. Archaeologists employ various methods, including field surveys, excavation techniques, and dating technologies, to gather evidence and interpret the past. The discipline encompasses a wide range of periods and geographical areas, contributing to our knowledge of human development, social organization, and cultural heritage.
