Archaeology-The Science of Human Culture



My class is studying archaeology today in summer school. Obviously with the Indiana Jones series being so popular now, the idea of searching for lost civilizations and the treasure that it implies is something my students find interesting. Having been present at a working dig site in Jamestown, Virginia, I found that archaeology was more about patience, diligence, and analysis rather than dodging hidden traps while searching for lost treasure.
