Reading the Bible is the most reliable source we have for learning about creation and the world's early events. Archaeology is also a way to find out information about history. Archaeology is the study of things that people made, used, and left behind. The goal of archaeology is to understand what people of the past were like and how they lived. Scientists who study archaeology are called archaeologists. The following video describes more about what an archaeologist does.
