Nathan Myhrvold

One of the things that I love to do is travel around the world and look at archaeological sites. Because archaeology gives us an opportunity to study past civilizations, and see where they succeeded and where they failed. Use science to, you know, work backwards and say, 'Well, really, what were they thinking?

American Businessman

Pardis Sabeti

So much of the physical world has been explored. But the deluge of data I get to investigate really lets me chart new territory. Genetic data from people living today forms an archaeological record of what happened to their ancestors 10,000 years ago.

Iranian Scientist

Neil MacGregor

Saddam Hussein was fascinated by ancient Babylon and Assyria. He made money available to protect and develop the great archaeological sites. The great achievements of Mesopotamian civilisation were pressed into the service of the Ba'athist regime.

British Historian

Jean M. Auel

My fiction is reviewed by the mainstream press, by science fiction periodicals, romance magazines, small press publications and various other journals, including some usually devoted to archaeological and other science material.

American Writer

Joseph Needham

Although there is a very large literature, still growing almost daily, on the Chinese calendar, its interest is, we suggest, much more archaeological and historical than scientific.

British Scientist

Lascelles Abercrombie

The world knows of a vast stock of epic material scattered up and down the nations; sometimes its artistic value is as extraordinary as its archaeological interest, but not always.

British Poet

Vicente Fox

Monuments and archaeological pieces serve as testimonies of man's greatness and establish a dialogue between civilizations showing the extent to which human beings are linked.

Mexican Statesman

George Lucas

I've come to the conclusion that mythology is really a form of archaeological psychology. Mythology gives you a sense of what a people believes, what they fear.

American Director

Sarah Parcak

The majority of the research I do is archaeological research, but to me, as a professor, the most important thing is to encourage and mentor students.

American Scientist

Zahi Hawass

As scientists, we keep an open mind, but we have to base our ideas about the past on archaeological evidence.

Egyptian Scientist

Often used in academic or historic contexts where precise terms are important for clarity.

Specialized Vocabulary

'Archaeological' can be confused with 'paleontological', which is about dinosaurs and fossils, not human history.

Not Just Dinosaurs

Refers to physical objects from the past, like buildings or artifacts, more than written history.

Often Physical

May be used in a non-literal way to emphasize the great age or obsolescence of an object.

Figurative Sense

Can metaphorically describe rediscovering something from a person's own past, like old notes.

Metaphorical Use

Used to evoke the feeling of uncovering or preserving a snapshot of a past era.
