Ask any archaeologist what questions they frequently get, and they will likely mention at least one of these:
“Do you dig up dinosaur bones?” (No, that’s paleontologists!)
“Have you ever found buried treasure?” (Depends on what you consider treasure!)
“Are you like Indiana Jones?” (By no means. We’re scientists, not adventurers!)
“Isn’t everything already discovered?” (Far from it. Scientific inquiry is boundless.)
