What else can I help you with?
Does this explain why archaeologists have been able to find so many fossils there?
fosil
What is the job of an archaelogists?
Archaeologists dig up fossils!
Who studies artefacts and fossils?
People that study artefacts are called archaeologists. However people who study fossils are known as palaeontologists.
Why are artifacts and fossils important to historians?
Artifacts are important to Historians (and Archaeologists) because they are actual evidence of past human activity. However fossils are NOT important to historians as they are too old, they ARE important to Geologists.
How do fossils help archaeologists and historians?
Because they tell them what sort of animals where around at the time.
Why are fossils so important to researchers?
because that is their job
Do archaeologists sell their work?
In general, archaeologists do not sell the artifacts they discover. They consider this "treasure hunting" and not a proper academic practice. In addition, ancient artifacts are increasingly claimed as government property in their country of origin, so the discoverer has no legal right to sell them. When exploring such sites, archaeologists are typically working on a government sponsored project run by a museum or University. They are essentially selling their time and expertise. Even in situations where artifacts are not claimed by the government, legitimate archaeologists work to ensure that all important artifacts are given to Universities and/or Museums that will further research the artifacts and make them available for public display. (Think of Indiana Jones, who was sponsored by his University and gave them his "finds." Contrast this with his rival, Belloc, who was strictly after the money.) Note that fossils - such as dinosaur fossils - are the province of Paleontologists rather than Archaeologists. Fossils are generally treated like minerals such as gold; if you own the property, the material you find there belongs to you. Governments typically do not interfere with this because fossils and minerals have no cultural significance.
How do archaeologists?
They dig for fossils or artifacts to figure out what early humans used for tools or their culture or how the shape of their bones were
Why have so few fossil dinosaurs been found in Antarctica?
The biggest problem with finding fossils in Antarctica is that everything is covered in ice, making it hard for archaeologists to excavate and find fossils.
What are geologists able to tell archaeologists about fossils?
How do archaeologists date fossils ? archaeologist can date fossills by seeingf how deep down it is in the ground [ checking how many layers ] , scientists can use radio-active dating, and compare a fossil that they know the exact date that it was from compare the looks and tell by that
Why do archaeologists compare human bones and fossils from different time periods?
To learn about the past.
Why are traditional fossils important?
so you can get oil and find out how did ancient people lived
