There are three main types of excavation: topsoil excavation, rock excavation, and muck excavation. Topsoil excavation involves removing the top layer of soil; rock excavation involves breaking and removing solid rock; and muck excavation involves digging soft, wet, and unstable soil.
Archaeologists, palaeontologists and astronomers work on archaeological excavations.
"Professional hazard" refers to risks or dangers that are commonly associated with a particular profession. The sentence "He is a professional hazard" is not correct, as the term is typically used to describe situations or aspects of a job rather than a person. You can use the term "professional hazard" in various contexts to discuss potential risks, challenges, or occupational hazards that workers may face in their specific field of work.
