Answer:

An archaeologist is a scientist who studies human history by digging up human remains and artifacts...

How do archaeologists learn about people from the past?

Well, there are three basic types of things.

Academic research, high-tech analysis, and good old fashioned digging and survey tools. Academic research is done in the body of accepted knowledge about the past produced by previous archeology and by historical transmission. It encompasses things like critical examination of provenance (of manuscripts and artifacts) and composing a context into which new evidence can be placed.

High-tech analysis is things like dating technologies and non-destructive imaging of the interiors of artifacts. This is crucial for assessing the validity of evidence.

Archaeological data mostly depends on the artifacts that archaeologist excavate on the field, with the study of artifacts(things of the past, material remains of past culture from their own remains such as bones to the remains of thing they used, anything that they made or used are our artifacts), archaeologist determine the culture, lifestyle of the past, the artifacts are studied as per the time period they were used, so the dating methods are very important for archaeologists, relative methods to study artifacts in the context of their use in relation to one other is important or their relative, used time period, and absolute dating such as carbon dating and uranium dating, potassium argon dating are other methods to study the time period.

With the help of other scientists or experts, such as geologists, chemists, biologists archaeologist conduct a through analysis of the artifacts they find, to study the past.
