	Archaeology
		But although archaeology uses extensively the methods, techniques, and results of the physical and biological sciences, it is not a natural science; some consider it a discipline that is half science and half humanity.
		Archaeology proper began with an interest in the Greeks and Romans and first developed in 18th-century Italy with the excavations of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
		The development of scientific archaeology in 19th-century Europe from the antiquarianism and treasure collecting of the previous three centuries was due to three things: a geological revolution, an antiquarian revolution, and the propagation of the doctrine of evolution.

	Archeology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Archaeology is an important field of anthropology, which is the broad study of human culture and biology.
		Archaeology plays a major role in the study of early civilizations, such as those of the Sumerians of Mesopotamia, who built the city of Ur, and the ancient Egyptians, who are famous for the pyramids near the city of Giza and the royal sepulchers (tombs) of the Valley of the Kings at Thebes.
		Archaeology was once a predominantly academic science that was conducted in universities and colleges; today, archaeology is increasingly becoming a profession.

	Archaeology and Sports History
		Archaeology is based generally on the idea that there are ancient remains of human activity to be studied and published to the aim of world history.
		It is obvious that archaeology and history should have a very closed relation, and a big interest is to be established between archaeologists and historians, because the archaeologist also needs the historian to develop his information and draw a certain philosophy of history.
		Archaeology is a field of interest to sport historians, especially those who have no texts in hand.

		Archaeology is a complex science that relies on careful research, planning, excavation, and documentation, as well as sophisticated technology.
		Archaeology is such a vast and complicated field that it would be very difficult for an archaeologist to be an expert in every area of study.
		Archaeology became a true science during the 1900's, with strong ties to the study of history and the natural sciences.

		Marshall (1987:27) neatly defined pa studies of the 1980's in New Zealand archaeology noting that "… pa as settlements approach is strongly in the ascendancy and "the problem of associated habitation" (Groube 1964:200) is being confronted".
		In explaining the role of the Pouerua Project she observed that "The close integration of detailed surface spatial data with the stratigraphic record is seen as the methodological key to a broader interpretation of Pouerua Pa and ultimately the area around it" (Marshall 1987:29).
		It was not until the establishment of academic archaeology in the universities (with the arrival of Golson) and the founding of one scientific body, the New Zealand Archaeological Association in 1954, that pa studies began to have both scientific and theoretical direction.

	PIA: Papers from the Institute of Archaeology
		Whilst archaeology's pivotal position in modern Irish heritage tourism is acknowledged, it is argued that the presentation and managment of archaeology renders it intangible, static and 'otherworldly'.
		For historians of archaeology, the analysis of time is frequently assimilated into the examination of different 'chronologies' and the presentation of the development of dating techniques.
		The broader remit of this research seeks to re-draw experimental archaeology as a practice that is understood for its 'interpretative' character rather than as narrowly 'scientific' as conventionally portrayed.

		Archaeology has played a major role in determining the trustworthiness of the Bible.
		There is a great deal of evidence outside of the Bible that confirms the account of Jesus as written in the Gospels.
		It is important to realize, however, that it is unrealistic to expect archaeology to back up every event and place in the New Testament.

		There are four places of worship - the Roman Catholic Church (Church of the Assumption), the Church of Ireland (St. Catherine's), the Methodist and the Presbyterian Church.
		In 1900 the old Church, which had now withstood the ravages of a century, was considered unsafe for public worship.
		The roof had begun to show signs of sagging, and the overhanging ceiling gave indications of tumbling down, and Father Callary, the present venerated pastor, entertained grave fears lest it should collapse on the congregation some Sunday.

	Philistines1
		In fact, the Philistine problem in Palestine was 'discovered' by archaeologists who had worked mainly in Cretan-Aegean archaeology (Welch, 1900; Thiersch, 1908).
		Mackenzie, in particular, investigated the problem during his excavations at Beth Shemesh in 1911-1912, he determined correctly the stratigraphic relationship of the pottery and defined it as "Philistine," and as related to the cultures of the Aegean world.
		Again this doesn't seem to ring warning bells as it did with Aharoni, that something is terribly wrong with the scenario that a strange people arrived in the area at the beginning of the Iron Age.
