Ask the Experts

Our Experts, who have volunteered to share their time and information, include researchers, university professors, AIA Board members, ancient art historians, field archaeologists, museum specialists, architectural historians, and more – all with specialized knowledge of specific ancient cultures and subjects.

We have created a catalogue of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ). In the FAQ section are answers to some of the questions archaeologists are most often asked, arranged by topic. If you want to know the meaning of a particular archaeological term, please check our online Glossary.

If you cannot find an answer in the FAQ, please leave a comment! Please be patient, since our volunteer archaeologists are sometimes excavating, teaching, or otherwise occupied, and may not be able to respond immediately.

college programs specified for archaeology

Submitted by Anonymous on January 10, 2011.

Ive noticed that anthropology is a more commonly pursued class and career, and so far I have failed in finding any good colleges with a decent archaeology program. Also any advice or information about the education steps I should take for archaeology would be deeply appreciated, for I am only fourteen and my knowledge on colleges or majors is minimal. 

thank you
