Archaeology is the scientific study of human history and prehistory through the excavation and analysis of artifacts, structures, and other physical remains. It aims to understand past human behavior, cultures, and societies by examining material evidence left behind.

The discipline combines techniques from various fields, including anthropology, history, and geology, to reconstruct past lifestyles, economies, and social structures. Through methods such as stratigraphy, dating techniques, and analysis of artifacts, archaeology provides insights into the development of civilizations, cultural changes, and human adaptation over time.
