Difference between Archaeological science and Archaeology

Archaeological science vs. Archaeology

Archaeological science, also known as archaeometry, consists of the application of scientific techniques to the analysis of archaeological materials, to assist in dating the materials. Archaeology, or archeology, is the study of humanactivity through the recovery and analysis of material culture.

Similarities between Archaeological science and Archaeology

Archaeological science and Archaeology have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Artifact (archaeology), Chronological dating, Geophysical survey (archaeology), Lidar, Lithic analysis, Paleoethnobotany, Palynology, Post-excavation analysis, Satellite imagery, Scientific method, Zooarchaeology.

Artifact (archaeology)

An artifact, or artefact (see American and British English spelling differences), is something made or given shape by humans, such as a tool or a work of art, especially an object of archaeological interest.

Chronological dating

Chronological dating, or simply dating, is the process of attributing to an object or event a date in the past, allowing such object or event to be located in a previously established chronology.

Geophysical survey (archaeology)

In archaeology, geophysical survey is ground-based physical sensing techniques used for archaeological imaging or mapping.

Lidar

Lidar (also called LIDAR, LiDAR, and LADAR) is a surveying method that measures distance to a target by illuminating the target with pulsed laser light and measuring the reflected pulses with a sensor.

Lithic analysis

In archaeology, lithic analysis is the analysis of stone tools and other chipped stone artifacts using basic scientific techniques.

Paleoethnobotany

Pal(a)eoethnobotany or Archaeobotany, "is the study of remains of plants cultivated or used by people in ancient times, which have survived in archaeological contexts." Paleoethnobotany is the archaeological sub-field that studies plant remains from archaeological sites.

Palynology

Palynology is the "study of dust" (from palunō, "strew, sprinkle" and -logy) or "particles that are strewn".

Post-excavation analysis

Post-excavation analysis constitutes processes that are used to study archaeological materials after an excavation is completed.

Satellite imagery

Satellite imagery (or spaceborne photography) are images of Earth or other planets collected by imaging satellites operated by governments and businesses around the world.

Scientific method

Scientific method is an empirical method of knowledge acquisition, which has characterized the development of natural science since at least the 17th century, involving careful observation, which includes rigorous skepticism about what one observes, given that cognitive assumptions about how the world works influence how one interprets a percept; formulating hypotheses, via induction, based on such observations; experimental testing and measurement of deductions drawn from the hypotheses; and refinement (or elimination) of the hypotheses based on the experimental findings.
