	Archaeology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Archaeology is the scientific study of the human past through the investigation of; artifacts, structures, animals, plants and human remains.
		Archaeology is an economic tool to facilitate the growth of heritage and community tourism, by the use of artifacts in museums, the creation of heritage parks and conducting of heritage tours.
		Underwater archaeology is a specialized branch of archaeology which studies the human past through the investigation of artifacts or material culture, the use of structures, animal, plants and human remains, in a marine environment.

	Books: The Blooming of Historical Archaeology
		Its publication in 1996 was a watershed for historical archaeology, heralding its transformation over the past three decades from being a mere tool, "the servant of the historian," as it was described by archaeologist Ivor Noël Hume in 1968, into a vibrant, multidisciplinary exploration of the emergence of the modern world.
		I have taught historical archaeology to university and high-school students and to adult volunteers for nearly 20 years; when I began, there were very few suitable books.
		Historical archaeology's potential to shed light on the unheralded aspects of everyday life is one of its greatest strengths.

	Sphæra issue no. 11: article 3
		The term 'archaeology of science' - for instance - has been applied to the study of the material remains of science, including scientific instruments.
		Anyway, most archaeology is the study of refuse; in that sense what gets lost or swept under a floorboard is as eloquent, or as ineloquent, a witness to its time as what gets buried in a back yard.
		The inevitable ordinary lost coins consist of three copper halfpennies, including a common one of George II dated 1734 and a rarer William and Mary of 1694, the latter very worn, meaning that it was lost after many years of circulation.

	18th of April 2003: Underwater Cultural Heritage (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Both on land and underwater, archaeology is the study and preservation of traces left by our ancestors in order to understand their lifestyles and cultures.
		Like in land-based archaeology, underwater excavation requires the installation of a metal grid divided into square frames of one, two or four metres (three, six or twelve feet).
		There is often an international dimension to the various pieces and goods of underwater archaeology because of the diverse origins of the boats and their cargos.

	A Review of Geophysical Methods Used in Archaeology
		Recent developments in image processing and graphic representation have contributed substantially to the archaeologist’s ability to do "rescue archaeology," that is, to carry out high-speed, nondestructive reconnaissance surveys for ancient human cultural evidence in advance of modern industrial development.
		The latter technologies are included along with prospection methods in the broader term "archaeophysics." A survey of the broader field of physics applied to archaeology is available in excellent summaries by Aitken (1974), and Wolfman (1984).
		Geophysical methods used in archaeology are not an unqualified panacea for the archaeologist.

		That promises to change this summer, as students participating in a new archaeology course at Phillips Academy have been invited to conduct the first-ever archaeological dig on the property.

		It is, however, important that the archaeological research bear in mind the real possibility of English activity on the site by the later 1630s, and that that activity may have been at least in part generated by the fur trade.
		Whether the archaeology will solve these puzzles remains to be seen, but it may well do so as this report will note.
		In London for most of 1691 and early 1692, he played a significant role in the discussions that led to the issue of a new charter for Massachusetts, and then gained appointment as the colony's first royal governor.

	History Beneath the Sea
		With the archaeological value of shipwrecks so well established, it is puzzling that their study is not yet a routine part of the preparation for a career in archaeology.
		They wait for marine archaeology to become as common as archaeology on land, for it is not only in advanced technology that the future of underwater archaeology rests.
		The future rests in the recognition of nautical archaeology as an academic discipline and its full appreciation as an integral part of archaeology.

	James Deetz, Memorial article by Marley Brown, III, 2004
		On Saturday, 25 November, 2000, historical archaeology lost one of its brightest lights, a scholar who did more than anyone of his generation to define the scope of the field and place it securely within the fold of anthropology.
		His advocacy of the foodways model for historical archaeology was further evidence of the impact that the discipline of folklore was having on his scholarship, an influence that came both from Glassie and from Deetz's own efforts to breath new life into the Pilgrim village.
		The profession of historical archaeology has been fortunate to have among its long-term practioners a scholar like Jim Deetz who will be remembered for his commitment to anthropology and for his ability to communicate the significance of archaeology to all audiences.
