tpo 16 the archaeology field declining in Britain
The material discusses the science of archaeology in Britain. While the reading claims that this filed faced many problems and limitations, the listening challenges this and points out that in 1990 new rules and guidelines have been issued to change the whole archaeology in Britain and made it better than it was in the past.
First, the author states that a lot of new construction in Bristish town uncovered archaeology valuable sites and destroyed them. On the other hand, the professor opposes this and mentions that before any construction work started, the construction site should be examined by professional archaeologists. The lecturer adds that if the site had historical value, archaeologists collaborated with the local government to preserve the site either by building around it or excavating it to discover it before any construction.
Second, the writer cites that the British government did not support archaeology science properly. On the contrary, the professor encounters this and posits that paying for archaeology was done by the construction company, not the government. According to the lecture, the construction company should perform the initial examination and all the work after that. The speaker says that the archaeology field is more supported today than it was in the past.
Third, the reading brings up that it was very hard for archaeologists to find jobs in Britain, so they ended up to pursue a different career. Conversely, the professor contradicts this and contends that the new rules and guidelines helped to open new job opportunities for archaeologists. The lecture points out that they did much work, such as examining sites, helping to preserve it, doing research, and processing the data. The speaker concludes that increasing jobs in the archaeology field helped to increase the number of professional archaeologists in Britain, their numbers are higher than they had ever been.
