		Archaeology or archÃ¦ology or sometimes in American English archeology (from the Greek words Î±ÏÏÎ±Î¯Î¿Ï = ancient and Î»ÏÎ³Î¿Ï = word/speech/discourse) is the study of human cultures through the recovery, documentation and analysis of cultural 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, culture history, cultural evolution, and human behaviour and ecology.
		It is the only discipline that possesses the method and theory for the collection and interpretation of information about the pre-written human past, and can also make a critical contribution to our understanding of documented societies.

	Archaeology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Archaeology is a historical science aimed at the discovery and understanding of past human behaviour through the study of material remains.
		As a result, archaeology is able to investigate not only the recent past and subjects to some degree already documented, but also epochs beyond the reach of memory and before the spread of writing.
		In the West, undergraduate and MA archaeology programs were established at the universities of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, and to the PhD level at the universities of Alberta and British Columbia.

	FREUD AND ARCHAEOLOGY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		There is something smugly triumphant in Freud's [1930] assertion of psychoanalysis's advantage over archaeology, as though at last he had reached a long sought-for goal - his science finally besting the science with which it was most competitive (at least as much as with medicine) (Kuspit 1989: 136-9).
		A quite elaborate metaphor comparing the preservation of memories in the unconscious with the survival of the past structures of ancient Rome may be found in Civilization and its Discontents (Freud 1930, PFL 12:256-8).
		As Gamwell indicates (above), the development of modern archaeology was largely intertwined with the development of modern concepts of geology and Darwinian evolutionary theory.

	FSTS Sources - Papers - A Brief History Of Archaeology In Minnesota
		Another major figure in Minnesota archaeology, Jacob Vrandenburg Brower, recorded some of the details of this unfortunate situation in his journals, particularly his own outrage when it was learned that the heirs would not donate the Survey records to the Historical Society but rather required that they be purchased for several thousand dollars.
		Like Hill, Brower was intrigued by the relationships between geography, history, and archaeology and attempted to articulate these in his series of publications, using what would later emerge in a somewhat different form as the direct historical approach in archaeology.
		During the next decade Johnson dramatically expanded the archaeology program at the University and, as was happening in many parts of the country, shifted its emphasis to a problem-oriented and regional focus.

	Jeremy Hight: Narrative Archaeology
		The author utilizing the concepts and form of narrative archaeology can form a reading of the second city (the connotative city or semiotically charged) with points in street layout pinpointed to address the resonance of multiple readings and resonances of buildings, street signs, navigation, infrastructure.
		The author, however in the new writing of narrative archaeology is working within the city, its streets, layers of cultural resonance and population, and, of course, buildings....many of which may remain unchanged over time.
		In 34n118w stories, population distributions and points of resonance in the physical city may be from 1937 then a hundred feet ahead 1903 then 1960.........all creatively and intellectually formed from elements in research and from the past.

	"Uncle Bill" and Panhandle Paleoindians
		Baker's duties took him to hundreds of farms around the county, and it was fairly common for him to pick up arrow and spear points from the plowed fields, but he knew nothing as to the age or meaning of the artifacts other than as "arrowheads".
		Baker had other interests in archaeology, for example, his work in the Kenton Caves, which is well documented in Lintz and Zabawa (1984), and in his own writing (Baker 1929a,b, 1953; Baker and Kidder 1937).
		Baker was a member (affiliate member 1936-1941, active member 1944-1956) of the Society for American Archaeology from its beginning and he held his membership for the rest of his life (Anonymous 1937, 1939, 1941, 1945, 1947, 1949, 1951, 1953, 1955).
