Top Ranking College for Archaeology

About Archeology Colleges and Universities:
Archaeology has two major branches—historical archaeology and forensic archaeology. Historical archaeologists engage in the traditional work of digging up ancient cities, researching antiquities, and reconstructing a portrait of now-extinct cultures. Forensic archaeologists work in law enforcement, recovering and analyzing buried evidence associated with crimes. The two enterprises use many similar techniques of recovery, cataloguing, and analysis.

A team of French archaeologists has unearthed an 11,000-year-old farming village on the island of Cyprus. The evidence, including bones and burned seeds, suggests that the Early Neolithic farmers came from the Middle East soon after the rise of agriculture, bringing plants, dogs, and cats with them. They supplemented their diets with wild boar that [...]
