Through the study of archaeology, students grapple with fundamental questions about what it means to be human, how we came to be the way we are, and what we might expect from the future. The field draws on research interests, methods, and explanatory approaches from multiple disciplines including anthropology, history, black studies, geography, biology, and geology.
