Answer:
An archaeologist is a scientist who studies human history by digging up human remains and artifacts.
- The word archaeologist can also be spelled archeologist. It comes from the Greek root archaeo-, for "ancient, primitive."
Help in Study of History :-
- Every type of source gives us a different type of information.
- Archaeological sources include sequences of deposits found through excavation, objects like jewellery or everyday items, buildings, and even entire landscapes.
- These let us work out chronologies and events, but also how people lived.
- For example, if an archaeologist finds a midden (rubbish dump) on a site, they can date some of what they've found to work out when people were using the site and how that changed.
- They can also use the contents of the midden to work out whether the people in the area were high or low status.
- When working with a type of source material you need to assess what its limitations are. The historical record is often written by the social elite and doesn't necessarily offer a very broad view. But the more sources and the more types of sources you use the more rounded picture you can create.
