Archaeology allows the past to come alive in a way that no other discipline can provide. Being able to provide tangible links to the past, to see and touch items that long-ago people created allows us to connect to them, and to learn not only about those people but about ourselves as well.
By utilizing the related disciplines of anthropology and history, the archaeologist can create a beautiful look into a world that may be gone but not forgotten, a world that lives on in each of us, and unifies us across the globe.
Understanding those who came before and created the world we now live in allows us to better understand ourselves and others. We see that we are all connected, and each piece of our collective past creates our collective present.
