A figure of speech.

All these are new excavations.

Yes, it's antique, like its owner.

There are 15 such rulings for historic monument sites and 27 for archaeological monument sites.

The archaeological treasures found in the historic trash of the Panama Canal.

Probable fossils 100 million years older have been found in the same area.

The first is that we have fossils unknown from 3.5 billion years ago.

Now in this particular case we were fortunate enough to find archaeological evidence from the Dunhuang cave in China.

These were excavated by a museum expedition to Egypt in 1915.

The first is that we have fossils of algae from 3.5 billion years ago.

An antique car, in the general sense of the term, is an automobile that is an antique.

It was in these submerged canyons that the only fossils of his species were found.

He is at once an icon and a commodity the perfect cultural artefact for the 21st century.

This happens to be the cloud of points for Tikal.

George Gaylord Simpson (June 16, 1902 October 6, 1984) was an American paleontologist.

In 1984, that species, Eurypterus remipes was named the state fossil of New York.

However, experts estimate that over 100,000 artifacts actually remain in Japan.

Anapji, or Anap Pond is an artificial pond in Gyeongju National Park, South Korea.

Syria states that samples were collected to evaluate the degradation of each artefact.

For reasons we may never know...

I wanted to be a paleontologist, a dinosaur paleontologist, and I wanted to have a pet dinosaur.

Well, if you were a paleontologist, and you want to study the evolution of a species, you typically would have gone through skeletal remains, you might go through the fossil records, and that would allow you to reconstruct the phylogenetic history of a species.

And because of that, you start to dig around for your external memories where did you leave them?

Our knowledge of the exact relationships between these ancestors is incomplete and often is revised because of new fossil finds.

I'm a paleoanthropologist, and my job is to define man's place in nature and explore what makes us human.

Approximately 730 relics are on display at the Anapji Exhibition Hall, the special gallery of the Gyeongju National Museum.

The first ones were found in Ethiopia in 1992, but it took 17 years to assess their significance.

Syria states that the site, which is of an area of several square kilometres and is only partially excavated, suffered damage and degradation.

You know, that is very exciting for us, because it demonstrates that things were changing slowly and progressively, and that evolution is in the making.

A number of Greco Roman and Corinthian pieces of pottery have been returned to the Museum of Ancient Corinth, in Greece, from which they were stolen.

It puts a human face on issues which from afar can appear abstract or ideological or monumental in their global impact.

In relation to indigenous lands and territories, including sacred sites (may include exploration, such as archaeologic explorations, as well as development and use).

What you have here seems to be nothing, but contains an incredible amount of scientific information that helps us explore what makes us human.

Imagine somebody coming from Mars and his job is to report on the type of people occupying our planet Earth, and you hide all the babies, the children, and he goes back and reports.

On the other hand, it is with concern that we note the theft of 64 archaeological objects of priceless value from the museum on the island of Aegina, near Athens.

So, for us, paleoanthropologists, our job is to find the hard evidence, the fossil evidence, to fill in this gap and see the different stages of development.

When I say coring, it's like ice coring, but instead of layers of climate change, you're looking for layers of human occupation.

Growing archaeological evidence of key elements associated with Homo sapiens is emerging at sites in Africa that are more than 60,000 years old.

Although not a major river by most standards, it flows through an area of great archaeological significance in the early history of China.

And even those people who complain and say that the relative standing of countries on something like PlSA is just an artifact of culture, of economic factors, of social issues, of homogeneity of societies, and so on, these people must now concede that education improvement is possible.

It was here, at the Laetoli site, that she discovered Hominin fossils that were more than 3.75 million years old.

Looking at fossils dating back several millions of years it all points to evidence that life for the human species as we know it began right here.

There is also strong archaeological evidence of Egyptian settlements in southern Canaan during the Protodynastic Period, which are regarded as colonies or trading entrepôts .

There were some sites where one percent of all the skulls have these holes, and so you can see that neurologic and psychiatric disease is quite common, and it was also quite common about 7,000 years ago.

Also, with the improvement of scientific methods of recovering cultural property from seabeds and from excavations carried out with highly technical equipment, there are now greater possibilities for plundering cultural property.
