Introduction to Archaeology

Archaeology is the study of the material remains of human culture -- history that simply never got written down. This course explores the methods and theory behind archaeology and uses well known or local examples -- such as Ancient Egypt, Stonehenge and Native American culture -- to consider what we can learn from the past that the history books do not tell us. This is the course that Dr. Henry Jones Jr. (aka Indiana) would have taught you.
