Archaeological excavation is the process of systematically uncovering and documenting the remains of past human activity, such as artifacts, structures, and other material evidence. This research area involves carefully digging and recording information about the layers of soil and materials found at a site, in order to understand the history, culture, and practices of the people who lived there. Excavations can take place at a variety of locations, including ancient settlements, burial sites, and other areas where past human activity occurred. The goal of archaeological excavation is to learn more about the past and contribute to our understanding of human history.
