  Archaeology is an exciting and rewarding career. As an archaeologist, you can work outdoors, make important discoveries, and find answers to mysteries about how humans used to live.

  Our great interest in archaeology is one of the reasons why the Indiana Jones movies and National Geographic are so popular.

  Archaeology is, quite simply, the study of human cultures from around the world and throughout time. Archaeologists find and study items that people in the past left behind to discover things about ancient people.

  In archaeology, your“day at work”can range from an excavation in the Egyptian desert to working with native people in Alaska. It includes both physical activity and intellectual pursuit. The love for the past, the wish of discovery and all kinds of activities related to archaeology make it a very valuable career for many people.

As an archaeologist, I am able to travel to some unusual and beautiful places.”
