Archaeology (3965 words) |
 | Archaeology is a historical science aimed at the discovery and understanding of past human behaviour through the study of material remains. |
 | As a result, archaeology is able to investigate not only the recent past and subjects to some degree already documented, but also epochs beyond the reach of memory and before the spread of writing. |
 | In the West, undergraduate and MA archaeology programs were established at the universities of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, and to the PhD level at the universities of Alberta and British Columbia. |
