Ancient Archaeological

Atheist challenge #17: Can you name any archaeological find that specifically contradicts any event in the OT?

Definition of a contradition:

Bible says Abraham was 175 when he died.
Ancient tablet says Abraham was 81 when he died.

That's what a factual contradiction looks like. Nothing subjective, no opinions, no claim of something that is humanly unknowable.

Answer in 10 minutes.

Global flood vs all of geology and physics.

Trainings in Archaeology and Anthropology

In the U.S. anthropology departments include archaeology as one of 4 subdisciplines. They include physical anthropology, cultural anthropology, and linguistic anthropology.

If you want to study ancient or classical civilizations (including the Near East, Egypt, early civilizations of the Mediterranean, classical Greece and Rome, and the early civilizations of India, China, and southeast Asia), you should take part in interdisciplinary programs that include courses in art, architecture, classics, history, ancient and modern languages, and theology.

However, if you wish to study the historical periods (from the fall of Rome to the present), then you should combine history (including archival and oral history research) with courses in historical and vernacular architecture, material culture and folklore, and archaeology. During your studies at the undergraduate level there is usually little specialization.

A major in anthropology requires courses in all of the subdisciplines. If you are interested in ancient and classical civilizations, the particular undergraduate major is not important. You'll need to have an masters archaeology degree (B.A./B.S.) to work as a field archaeologist in the U.S. and to perform basic laboratory studies. You can get it through participation in an archaeological field school or as a volunteer.

It's very important to underline that the Ph.D. degree requires 2-3 years of courses beyond the M.A. This degree also requires the successful preparation and oral defense of a dissertation containing original research in your chosen specialization within the field of archaeology.

Some graduate programs offer streamlined tracks for students with a B.A. degree so that they work directly toward a Ph.D. while others require an M.A. degree first.
There are some programs that offer a non-thesis M.A. degree. If you are planning to work immediately on a Ph.D. degree, the preparation of a thesis is an important part of the educational process.

An M.A./M.S. would be enough to direct field crews and is sufficient for many government positions in archaeology. An M.A./M.S. with a thesis and a year of field and laboratory experience is the minimum for certification by the Society of Professional Archeologists.
