Can you study science with archaeology

Deepti Singh 5th Oct, 2024

Hello,

Yeah, you may do science accompanied by archaeology. Archaeology is a multidisciplinary field and to gain further knowledge about history, it needs to be combined along with other scientific disciplines. Many branches of science are connected with archaeology too, such as biology, chemistry, physics, and geology.


For example, the archaeological science applies methods like carbon dating (chemistry), DNA analysis (biology), and remote sensing (physics) to retrieve information related to earlier civilizations. If one is interested in both science and archaeology then, one can opt for a course in archaeology and archaeometry, it is an application of scientific methods to problems in archaeology.

Learning science along with archaeology brings within one's career scope and opportunities in forensic archaeology, paleobotany, and environmental archaeology, where bodies and other remains alongside environmental data are analyzed.


Universities allow for joint or interdisciplinary courses in order to complement archaeology with science, and this is a good and well-rounded education that would really be helpful when making studies in the field.

Identify the pair which DOES NOT exhibit the same relationship as the Capitalised pair: 

ETYMOLOGY : WORDS 

Option 1: PSYCHOLOGY : MIND 

Option 2: ANATOMY : BODY 

Option 3: ARCHAEOLOGY: ANTIQUES 

Option 4: PHILOSOPHY : LANGUAGE 

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: PHILOSOPHY : LANGUAGE 


Solution : Given:

ETYMOLOGY : WORDS

Etymology is the study of the origin and history of words. It is a field of study related to words.

Let's analyze the relationships in each of the given pairs and determine which one does not exhibit the same as the given pair.

Option first: PSYCHOLOGY : MIND

Psychology is the study of the mind. This pair follows a similar pattern as "ETYMOLOGY : WORDS" where a field of study is related to the subject of study. In this case, psychology is related to the mind.

Option second: ANATOMY: BODY

Anatomy is the study of the body. This pair also follows a similar pattern as "ETYMOLOGY : WORDS" where a field of study is related to the subject of study. In this case, anatomy is related to the body.

Option third: ARCHAEOLOGY : ANTIQUES

Archaeology is primarily the study of historical remains and artifacts, which may include antiques. This pair also follows a similar pattern as "ETYMOLOGY : WORDS" where a field of study is related to the subject of study. In this case, archaeology is related to antiques.

Option fourth: PHILOSOPHY: LANGUAGE

Philosophy is the study of fundamental questions about reality, existence, knowledge, and ethics. While philosophy may encompass the study of language, it is not primarily or exclusively related to language as etymology is to words. This pair does not exhibit the same relationship as "ETYMOLOGY : WORDS."

Hence, option fourth is correct.
