Free Quiz Question From Liberal Arts: Archaeology
Question: What causes archaeologists to have an incomplete and even fragmentary understanding of the past?
Answer:
Very few items last millennia -- most items used by past cultures have disintegrated.
Archaeologists are unwilling to desecrate grave sites -- therefore, they cannot examine bones and teeth to learn about the past.
Archaeologists have not developed reliable methods of excavating ancient dwellings without destroying them in the process.
Most cultures archaeologists would like to study are buried under hundreds of feet of hardened lava.
