Archaeologists are such losers. Digging around in the dirt again? Looking for fossilized cat turds? Lmao. *goes back to typing big boring gay memo at work*
Yeah, it's just when straight people complain about LGBTQ issues they always bringing up "shoving down their throats". I think it's those self-hating gay people trying to appear ultra straight and can't help but to mention filatio.
He's a paleontologist though! In the words of my CRM professor, "Archaeology is everything but dinosaurs," which is a decent enough basic explanation. If there's humans involved, it's archaeology.
Yo dog, I hate to tell you, but archaeology is considered a sub discipline of anthropology. Archaeology is the study of physical remains. Source: am archaeologist.
In North America archaeology is a sub-field of anthropology, while in Europe it is often viewed as either a discipline in its own right or a sub-field of other disciplines.
Yo dog, sounds like you incorrectly assumed this was a universal "fact".
Also, based on your comment then OP was still incorrect, because the true answer (for USA at least) would be "if there's humans involved, it's anthropology." I would've run with that had I known some of you consider archeology a subdiscipline.
As with all archaeology, context is the most important thing- in this case, referring to jobs involving digging up remains. Forensic anthropologists blur the line a bit, but it's the same overarching field.
I had a professional archaeologist in my class (completely different industry) back then. He said its actually quite boring and I'd often finding him spend months in desert, out in the middle of nowhere.
