How might you apply something you have learned in archaeology to a future project?

One thing in particular that I have learned from this archaeology class is that everything
has a story. No matter how small the object, for example a cup. We want to know how that cup
ended up all broken and shattered. The stories behind these items are quite interesting once
everything is put together. That has taught me to look at thing from all kinds of different
perspectives, If it was not for archaeology the story of many cultures or people would have never
been discovered. All of that was possible by piecing together different artifacts, looking at
similarities from other civilizations and coming to the conclusion about these said people. It
makes me thing when it's time to write out an essay, there is different parts to an essay which in
the end all from one big story.
