Because by finding artifacts from ancient civilizations we can tell how our earth has changed and how we, as a species, have changed.

Hi there ^ _ ^

Ok, we know that History accounts for events that are politically and socially important. It accounts for dates and names and the places where those events occurred. ( this is what history basically is about)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, Archaeology on the other hand, it accounts for life. It tells you how the life was in the past - How it was like etc..

I hope this help!
