Making a Career Out of Artifacts

You spend your childhood entranced by dinosaur bones and everything that was prehistoric and died several million years ago. You gazed longingly at the collections of dinosaur bones in your favorite museum and begged your parents for your very own ancient arrow head when you visited ancient Native American burial grounds.

Now that you are grown up, it is easy to understand your chosen career path when you think of your childhood days. You went to school for many years and now you are an archeologist who spends his days digging up ancient artifacts and bones in some of the most remote locations of the world.

To sum it up, you help the world piece the history together. There are so many things we have learned from archeology expeditions that help us shape what we believe the world was millions of years ago. All thanks to the work of dedicated professionals who devote their lives to studying the past. Their study of the past helps us create a better future.

Man would not have known about dinosaurs had it not been for archeologists who dug up the artifacts of that period including the bones to show what they looked like millions of years ago. Also, if it was not for archeologists on their constant quests for artifacts, we never would have learned about the lives of the Ancient Egyptians and the people who died in Pompeii.

Archeologists are vital to the future of our world, but do not receive the proper amount of credit. They have been instrumental in the formation of the United States as well. They helped piece together the history of the Native Americans and helped find Native American artifacts like weaponry that help explain where some of our current weapons originated from.

Just imagine what we would not know if archeologists did not spend their time researching and creating our history. We would be a world who thinks it started after Christopher Columbus sailed to America. Well, maybe not. But out world history view would definitely be limited.

So, you may not know an actual archeologist personally, but than them each time you visit a museum, watch a historical documentary or learn something about the history of the United States. They were the ones who helped do the research and find out the truth behind the mysteries in life.

If you are interested in pursuing a career in artifact searching, find a college that offers a good program in archeology. There are several across the country that will help you learn about the past and learn the tools to becoming one yourself. These programs can be quite demanding and you must be able to handle the dangers and challenges that come along with this sort of career to be successful.

Imagine walking across the desert and finding ancient scribes that were written millions of years ago. That dream could definitely be a reality if you pursue a career in artifact finding and archeology.

Find Artifacts in Your Home Town

If you are anything like me, you probably think your home town is the most boring place on the planet Earth, especially if it is a small town. But it is still probably boring if you live in a big city because there is a limit on what you can do as a child growing up. 

However, there is a way for kids to find something fun to do with their friends that does not involve getting into trouble with the law or drugs. This game is sort of like a scavenger hunt and will appeal to all of the aspiring Indiana Jones wannabes of the world. This game does not really have a name, but entails finding artifacts all over your home town or neighborhood. Now, these do not really have to be artifacts, but can be anything you consider old and worthy of mention as a unique item. 

To play, approach it like a scavenger hunt. Have you child get a group of friends together and decide on the rules. For instance, each child must find an interesting old rock, a piece of petrified wood and some really old pop bottles or cans. The options are limitless because it depends on what you, your child and his group of friends deems to be worthy of the term artifacts. Also, your child might consider something to be an artifact that is really only a couple of years old. But to him, it is ancient. 

Your child and his friends can then use their imaginations and create their very own treasure hunt and archeological expedition with just a few things. It is the best way to get your kids and their friends outside to enjoy the weather and truly be a kid. The kids get to flex their creativity and you get to rest easy knowing they are participating in a wholesome activity that helps them think strategically and quickly. 

Once your child and his group of friends have gathered their artifacts, have them meet to show off their wares. You never know, one of the children may have found something that will spark off a conversation about the history of your home town, history of the United States, the history of anything. 

The game of finding artifacts is also one that can be played by adults as a twist on the traditional notion of scavenger hunting. There are only so many restaurant straws and ketchup packets you can collect in these sorts of games. This gives you an opportunity to go back to your childhood and find the joy in finding “artifacts.” 

So, let your kids be kids and let them scavenge for artifacts. Then you can also be a kid again with your very own version of the game. It is fun, it is free and it can turn out to be a great educational opportunity for your child. No video game or sophisticated computer toy or cell phone can boast the same educational benefits that this game can have.
