Archaeology - 1
Time travel has always been fascinated by people throughout centuries. The thought to have the ability to change the past or see into the future is needless to say, has allured many. Though physicist have tried to uncover the possibilities the time travel phenomenon, Jeremy A. Sabloff has reveals that the solution is already here. Jeremy A. Sabloff 's "Archaeology Matters" emphasizes the importance of archaeology in the modern world. He believes that lessons from the past will benefit how we can better interpret our world today, and possibly change our future. Each chapter in "Archaeology Matters" exemplifies how archaeology can better serve our world through different methods. Throughout the book, he discusses current and past world problems. From this, he gives further insight and knowledge from an archaeological approach, on the lessons from the past. Jeremy A. Sabloff makes interesting and valid arguments throughout his writing. He discusses human nature, the importance of cultures and traditions, and challenges our ability to sustain the human race. Many examples in this book is valid, however I would suggest deeper insight and rise questions to some points.
First, Sabloff introduces his audience to the concept of archaeology and how it can be used in our modern world. Because archaeology is a field of discovery through the usages of material matter of the past, Sabloff rejects that archaeology is solely effective for that. [REWRITE]. Sabloff introduces the term 'action archaeology ', which is essentially "[the] involvement or engagement with the problems facing the modern world through archaeology" (Sabloff, 17).

On this aspect, I fully agree with him as he suggests that archaeology has a place in modern society. By learning from mistakes of the past,
