	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: 1917 in archaeology
		Archaeology, archeology, or archæology (from the Greek words αρχαίος = ancient and λόγος = word/speech/discourse) is the study of human cultures through the recovery, documentation and analysis of material remains and environmental data, including architecture, artefacts, biofacts, human remains, and landscapes.
		The goals of archaeology are to document and explain the origins and development of human culture, understand culture history, chronicle cultural evolution, and study human behavior and ecology, for both prehistoric and historic societies.
		Similarly archaeology is conceived of as a science for studying buried artifactual remains and constructing a fairly objective view of past cultures and events.

		Local archaeology seemed to promise so little of positive value that the resources of the department [of Anthropology, University of California, Berkeley] were diverted to rescue ethnographic information from the survivors of the last aboriginal generation of California Indian groups.
		As used in the Central California Taxonomic System, the term "horizon" referred to broad temporal and spatial levels, the term "province" to geographic subdivisions within horizons, and the term "facies" to a group of settlements which may be distinguished on the basis of recurrent trait assemblages from another group within a province.
		For the most part, Central California archaeology is progressing with little direction or guidance from modeling research, and as a result is not nearly as productive, efficient, or informative as might otherwise be the case.
