Do archaeologists make a lot of money?
Archaeologists do not typically make a lot of money compared to other professions. Salaries can vary depending on the specific job, location, and level of experience, but generally, archaeologists do not earn high salaries. Many archaeologists are motivated by their passion for the field rather than financial gain.
Why do archaeologists use a datum point rather than simply measuring from the ground surface?
Archaeologists use a datum point to establish a consistent reference point for all measurements during excavations. This helps ensure accuracy and precision in recording the vertical and horizontal positions of artifacts and features. By having a fixed point of reference, archaeologists can maintain spatial relationships within the site.
How are archaeologist represented as collectors rather than scientist in Indiana Jones?
In the world of Archaeology, archaeologists follow what is essentially the scientific method in their research and excavations. This can be very tedious and hands on, but the types of dangers in this field are not accurately portrayed in Indiana Jones and the people who are portrayed as archaeologists in Indiana Jones are not what one would call scientific in their pursuits. Instead, the characters who are acting as archaeologists in Indiana Jones follow the pattern of one who is seeking to obtain things of intrinsic value, in much the same way as a treasures seeker or antique dealer.
Do archaeologists study ecofacts or natural features found near a site?
Archaeologists often do study ecofacts and natural features they find near an archaeological site. These lines of evidence can provide vital clues to what the climate may have been like in the past, what natural resources were available to the people how once inhabited the site and how they may have interacted with the landscape around them. One thing that is important though is to establish that this evidence is relevant to the human occupation. It is of no particular interest that there may have been a forest near a site if it held no significance to the people who lived near it. Archaeologists are not interested in the environment in a general sense, but rather the human interaction with it.
Why do archaeologists believe that the prehistoric sculpture is a result of natural erosion and not human artistry?
It depends entirely on the prehistoric sculptures in question. There are some sculptures that are formed in such a simplistic way and are not representative of anything in nature. There is no distinguishing these sculptures from naturally-formed rocks and, therefore, a number of archaeologists believe that they are not forms of artistry. Conversely, other archaeologists look to the placement of these sculptures and argue that they are man-made, just not by sophisticated artists. Most prehistoric sculptures, however, do not fit into this category as they have clear anthropomorphic shapes and/or the types of carving that rarely happen in nature. As a result, these are unambiguously human artistry.
How many megapixels are in polaroid vs digital cameras?
Polaroid cameras typically use instant film and do not measure image quality in megapixels, as they produce physical prints rather than digital images. Digital cameras, on the other hand, can range from a few megapixels in basic models to over 100 megapixels in high-end professional cameras. Generally, digital cameras offer much higher resolution and image quality compared to Polaroid cameras.
What Does NOT convert images into digital form?
Devices that do not convert images into digital form include traditional film cameras, which capture images on photographic film, and analog scanners that produce output in physical formats rather than digital. Additionally, print media such as newspapers and magazines do not convert images into digital form, as they produce images directly on paper without digital processing.
Digital Client?
A Digital Client generally refers to a customer or client who interacts with a business primarily through digital channels rather than in-person or via traditional means.
Does a digital piano need tuning?
No, a digital piano does not need tuning because it uses electronic sound production rather than strings like a traditional piano.
Do digital cameras have shutters?
Short answer: Yes, if you define "shutter" widely enough.Long answer: Rather than a physical shutter as one would have with a film camera, many digital cameras simply turn the sensor on and off as needed (called electronic shutter). This is usually used in point-and-shoot digital cameras. A digital SLR camera, on the other hand, will usually have a physical shutter which opens for the needed duration, just like a film camera. Some SLR cameras, like the Nikon D40 (and probably many others) use both a physical shutter and an electronic shutter; having the latter permits almost unlimited flash sync speed.
What is e-commerce digital market and goods?
E-commerce refers to the process of buying and selling online, as opposed to a traditional brick and mortar business. Digital goods are intangible software or digital media that are downloaded after purchase, rather than being a physical product that is shipped to your house.
How does the resolution of a 2.4 megapixal digital camera compare with a disposable camera?
Generally speaking, film has a much better resolution than digital cameras. In fact, if you were to compare good 35mm color film to the "megapixel" rating of digital cameras, film would rate in the area of 24 megapixels. The problem is not with the resolution of the storage media (digital vs. film), but rather the abilities of the cameras themselves. A disposable camera is going to have a disposable lens in it. Lenses have a very big impact on the quality of your photos. So, in short, the disposable camera might have a better resolution, but the digital camera will likely have sharper pictures. The operative word here is disposable. Most of the 'disposables' on the market would be better if they were disposed of before taking pictures.
What kinds of cameras did they have in 1961?
The 1950s saw cameras becoming more compact so by the early 60s, the most common cameras used film to take pictures on to a 2 1/4" square negative. Kodak was the company known for low cost cameras and was probably the biggest manufacturer of cameras at the time. 35mm film was also in common use and professional single lens reflex cameras were becoming common. The 35mm SLR of the 60s in fact looked little different to the digital SLRs of today. They were certainly heavier and bulkier than modern SLRs and of course used film rather than digital sensors. Other than size and weight, the general layout of SLRs has changed little over the last 50 years.

What are the pros and cons of video cameras in schools?
One of the pros for technology on education is students can access learning tools from a variety of resources including international. Online learning allows for students to obtain additional information not readily available. However, technology minimizes traditional learning styles and students develop reliance to technological tools rather than traditional styles of learning.
Why is a digital watch called digital?
A digital watch is called "digital" because it displays the time using numerical digits rather than traditional hands on a dial. This type of watch uses electronic components to generate and show the time, often utilizing LCD or LED screens. The digital format allows for precise timekeeping and often includes additional features such as alarms, stopwatches, and backlighting.
What is digital theodolite?
A theodolite that shows a digital rather than analogue display.
