How Do We Know What Happened Thousands of Years Ago? Archeology!
Daily Objectives n n n Students will understand what an archeologists does and how they use fossils and artifacts to tell us about prehistoric times Students will know the names, time periods, and characteristics of several hominids Students will be able to make observations and inferences about artifacts

Archeology Terms n n n Archeology: Science of uncovering clues about early human life Make observations: something one has seen, heard, or noticed. Make inferences: educated guesses based on observations
Vocabulary of Archeology n n n Archeologists Observation Inference Artifacts Fossils Site
Fossils/Artifacts 1. Fossils are remains of living things (plants, animals, people), not of things that were made. 2. Artifacts are remains of things that were made, not the remains of living things.
What is a site? A "site" is a place archaeologists wish to explore. At the site, archaeologists literally dig, looking for the remains of ancient civilizations. That is why they call the site at which they are working a “dig”.
Grids & Labeling Before they begin digging, archaeologists design a grid on the ground using rope and string. Each square in the grid must be carefully searched. A record must be kept of anything found, including what was found next to it.
