Answer. One way archaeology helps us understand the past is through the material objects it finds, allowing us to know what was being used, and when. For example a dig recently found a flute, believed to be the oldest musical instrument found to date.৬ এপ্রিল, ২০১৭

Filters. The definition of processual is using a process, a particular method. An example of processual is a method for scientific investigation. adjective.

The goal of archaeology is to understand how and why human behavior has changed over time. Archaeologists search for patterns in the evolution of significant cultural events such as the development of farming, the emergence of cities, or the collapse of major civilizations for clues of why these events occurred.

While it’s legal to own artifacts, it’s illegal to buy, sell, trade, import, or export burial, sacred or cultural objects, and other historical artifacts that were obtained by violating laws against digging on sites, collecting on public lands without a permit, or disturbing graves.৯ জুলাই, ২০১৮

Have you ever noticed that archaeologists often dig square holes? It is much easier and accurate to figure out the volume if we are taking dirt from square units. We can control how much soil we are removing much more easily if we use straight lines.১০ ফেব, ২০১৮

Increasingly, archaeologists find sites by searching satellite imagery, including Google Earth. Geophysical techniques are commonly used before excavating to scan the ground where researchers know archaeological remains are buried.৪ ডিসেম্বর, ২০২০

To get at the archaeological evidence, archaeologists dig through these layers of built-up soil and dirt to try to understand the processes through which the layers were built up over time, and to find any artefacts buried within the layers.১৩ ফেব, ২০০৮

1. Google Earth. Satellite imagery such as Google Earth, Microsoft’s Bing and Nasa’s World Wind has made it possible to zoom into even the most remote corners of the globe to locate sites. By helping to spot things like settlement mounds or enclosures, it can help draw attention to places where such sites may be found.৭ ডিসেম্বর, ২০১৫

How Much Does an Archaeologist Make? Archaeologists made a median salary of $63,670 in 2019. The best-paid 25 percent made $81,480 that year, while the lowest-paid 25 percent made $49,760.

The most common type of search method used when looking for buried remains is a visual search. The law enforcement and the archaeologists both used this method. The decomposition dogs use their sense of smell to find a buried body.

Humans steal the best bits to reuse in other buildings, and erosion wears everything else to dust. So the only ancient ruins we find are the ones that were buried. Settlements constantly imported food and building materials for the population, but getting rid of waste and rubbish was a much lower priority.

Ancient Rome slipped from sight gradually, in a 2,500-year process of natural silting and intentional burial that was already well advanced in classical times. Roman architects frequently tore the roofs from old buildings and filled their interiors with dirt, to make solid foundations for new structures.১ এপ্রিল, ১৯৯৭

Over time, soil and other materials blow around, there are floods, and so on. When that happens, there are basically two possibilities. Either something sticks up and gets eroded away or it’s in a low area or other position where dust and other particles can settle and it gets buried.

Most ancient cities get buried under the dust and rubble of structures that have collapsed over the centuries and millennia that followed their destruction and abandonment.

The primary cause of ancient cities being buried beneath modern cities, however, was the practice of knocking down old masonry or mud-brick (adobe) buildings, and using the flattened-out rubble as the base for new buildings built from new materials. Each time you do this, the ground level rises.

Like Europe’s other ancient cities, Rome is perched on one vast archeological site. Ancient Rome was built around seven hills. The crests of which were typically reserved for important public buildings, a function they still serve today. Many such buildings are built on the ruins of their Roman predecessors.২০ ডিসেম্বর, ২০১৭

Opened in 1955, the metro (subway or underground) in Rome has grown very little by little and currently only operates 37,3 miles (60 km) made up of three lines. It is one of the smallest metros in Europe.
