In the mid-seventies when a team from the National Museum of the Philippines excavating a site was told that a strip of metal with some kind of writing had been found by a treasure hunter. Fortunately, the artifact was already in the hands of Proceso Gonzales, the city engineer of Butuan. He understood the importance of the find and took possession of it.

The first archaeological evidence of agriculture was found in the Fertile Crescent region of the Middle East, specifically in modern-day Iraq, Syria, Turkey, and Iran. This evidence dates back to around 10,000 years ago during the Neolithic Revolution when humans transitioned from a hunter-gatherer lifestyle to settled agriculture.
Archaeological field work may uncover sites such as prehistoric settlements, ancient burial grounds, temples, forts, and shipwrecks. These sites can provide insight into past societies, culture, trade routes, technologies, and religious practices. Excavations of these sites can help archaeologists piece together the history and lifestyle of past civilizations.
An archaeological survey is a non-invasive process that involves studying an area to identify and record archaeological sites, while an excavation is a more invasive technique that involves digging and carefully removing layers of soil to uncover, document, and analyze artifacts and features within a specific site. Surveys are often used to determine where excavations should take place.
Obsidian was one of the sharpest rocks used during the Stone Age. It is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that can be knapped into extremely sharp edges. Archaeological evidence suggests that obsidian was highly valued for tool-making due to its sharpness.
The Butuan silver strip was discovered in Butuan City, located on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines. It was unearthed in 1989 during archaeological excavations and is believed to date back to the 10th century. The artifact, which is a silver ingot, provides evidence of early trade and interaction between the Philippines and other regions, particularly in Southeast Asia.
