Archaeologist here, ASK ME ANYTHING

[knownsense]

@Heyyy21 impressive and glad to know that you are aware of it !!I am not any researcher.. I was fascinated about language and script and got hooked up spent hours of time switching library's and books came across all ancient sects group, relegion, civilization , kingdom.. and curiosity made me more to know, also I am aware of it that it's based on a perspective of past resewrchers, experience, research borrowed, self known..
There is two old language still spoken in India one is sankrit is consider as a Aryan language, not so much used as Tamil Dravidian language.. it's starts form south of India till Sri Lanka !!
And I am not sure few groups of people claims that Dravidian language Tamil is more older than Aryan sankrit !!

I am not sure but scholars claim now,
There is a one more language called thulu small civilization, existed before Dravidian civilization, lived in costal belt of Karnataka Mangalore.. language still exist, maliyalam was script of thulu .. now it's state script of Kerala
So it's gives a new angel that thulu is more older than Tamil and sankrit some sense I guess ??

@Heyyy21 what were your greatest finds

[Max256]

@Heyyy21 I didn't understand what you meant by ceramic drawing in archeology,but I guess I can't become one because my drawing is really bad.But digging sounds fun.

[Max256]

@Heyyy21 okay.

[Heyyy21]

@underpaid-FB-emloyee may sound insignificant but finding something is not done alone so as an equip you find and mostly the head of excavation takes credit of course mentioning the team members. Usually excavations are done by large groups split across the field. And when something is found for example a structure does who specialize continue the work. For me we found a 2 m. statue of an Roman Emperor whose name I don't remember but it was early Roman Empire era when I was an intern. 2 years ago found a chapel. Found several whole ceramics with unique paintings. Found column pieces used as gravestones in villages. But mostly I've worked on already found structures for their drawings, reconstructions on pc, finding out materials used, building technics etc. If I'm available and needed I was sent for ceramic drawing and cleaning or cataloging on warehouse etc. So basically there's not much I've found

Ever plant "finds" to either increase your funding or to get further approval to continue a dig when the project is nearing completion?

Will you now I've given you the idea?

[Heyyy21]

@Mydogsexedmycat i've never witnessed this but probably some people do it in my opinion, but mostly near villagers do make their own fakes and try to sell them or they try to show us and make profit out of it and of course after we study we understand it's fake
