The relationship between archaeology and history

The relationship between archaeology and history is:

Archaeology and history are identical and have their own characteristics, which are interrelated and different from each other. They are independent disciplines and have no affiliation with each other. In China, archaeology belongs to two disciplines under history for quite some time.

After unremitting efforts, archaeology finally became the same first-class discipline as history a few years ago, which was due to the understanding of archaeological positioning and the consideration of discipline development.

Introduction to archaeology and history;

History is a subject that mainly studies the past of mankind, based on the documents left over from ancient times. It not only studies events and people, but also discusses the background and causes of these events, as well as their consequences and influences. Its purpose is to reveal the law of the development of human history.

Archaeology is a process of studying the development and change of human culture and society, exploring its background and motivation, and summarizing its development and change laws based on the physical materials left over from people's activities in the past and the remains related to human activities.

Archaeology, that is, ancient research, belongs to the humanities. It is a branch of history in China, but it is a branch of anthropology in the United States and Canada, and it is an independent discipline or part of history in Europe. Archaeology aims to study the history of ancient human society according to the material data left over from various activities of ancient human beings.
