Archeology is the study of the ancient ~ objects of the past. Archeologist study the remains of ancient human societies and cultures such as buildings, artwork, tools, pottery, etc. Archeologists use aerial photography to decide where to begin their excavations. They hope to uncover artifacts, ruins, and other archeological evidence. Archeologists then take their findings and try to analyze and date their findings. Archeologists hope that the artifacts found may give clues as to how ancient peoples built, traded, lived, and worshipped.

TIMELINESTimelines record major events and display when the events happened. You need to remember the following things when using timelines.
Timelines present a chronological record that displays events from left to right. Events on the left of a timeline happened before the events on the right on a timeline.
Timelines use two time periods. BCE (Before the Common Era) goes on the left of the timeline and makes up all of the years before the year of Christ’s birth. CE (Common Era) goes on the right of the timeline and refers to all of the years from the year of Christ’s birth to the present day. CE and BCE are sometimes referred to as AD and BC, respectively. BCE and CE are the modern system. Only BCE (BC) years have anything written after them, BCE (BC).
Timelines are always divided into equal parts or time periods. Some are divided into 10 year periods (Decades), others into 100 year periods (Centuries), and some into 1000 year periods (Millenniums), etc.
Specific dates of many events in history are either inexact or unknown. To show events that appear on a timeline that we do not know the exact date for, the Latin word CIRCA is used. Circa means “about” and is abbreviated “c” which is written before the event’s date.
