Answer:

The correct option is A.

A. Small test pits can be conducted in an undisturbed part of the surveyed area to find buried artifacts that may not be readily seen on the surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because archeological survey refers to the study , exploration and digging of sites to obtain archeological remains. The basic sim of this is to get remains that are not visible to man underneath.

usually , the sites are dug out by a shovel so as to determine whether the soil contains any archeological emains that cannot be seen on the surface. This involves the action of excavating the out something or remains especially an archaeological site.
