ancient past by looking at the remains

• Archeological methods have helped scientists learn
a lot in the fields of history and science. Unfortunately,
some studies have damaged sites. Invasive research
can damage sites for future study or hurt a local
culture's heritage.
• Using satellites and computerized 3D imagery,
scientists like Dr. Lin can explore significant areas
without disturbing the sites.
• One of the main purposes of archeology is the study
of historical human cultures. Studying a culture means
respecting its people and working together to learn
more.
