Archeology is a social science that is concerned with understanding or obtaining information about societies and ancient forms of human organization through the direct study of historical evidence. The most common is that the studies are undertaken by research on soil and archaeological materials that have been buried or damaged over time.
Archaeological sites are the places where archeology studies are carried out. They are considered heritage areas where it is possible to obtain a large amount of information about the practices, values and structures of ancient societies. These areas need to be correctly identified and preserved so that no heritage of historical information is lost.
