Archaeology - The study of human history and prehistory through the excavation of sites, and the analysis of artifacts and other physical remains.
When it comes to archaeology, there are two types of people.
There are those who wish to show relics and other lost remains to the world. A time period that had not seen the light of day for countless years.
However, there are also those consumed with greed. So much greed, that they would do just about anything to obtain the treasure they seek, especially while severely disregarding ancient history, local culture, and even human life.
There's also a hidden third category. It's hardly ever talked about, since those people only do archaeology for kicks.
~Curator's Office, San Mateo County History Museum~
Can you guess which category best describes these guys?
Curator: *Examining a golden chalice* This is quite the find, Miss Torres. Thank you for bringing it.
Jolene: You should really thank my brother. He's the one who snatched away while those two rival bandit gangs were squabbling with each other in those dang catacombs.
Curator: I see. This chalice will find a place of honor in our French Collection. Speaking of your brother, where is he?
Jolene: *Looks around* He should be...
Jeremy: *Frantically enters*
Jolene: Oh, there you are.
Curator: Is something wrong, youngster?
Jeremy: ... Reporters. They've been bugging me about my conflicts with... Well, you know.
Curator: And that's a problem for you?
Jolene: He doesn't do well with crowds, especially those who hound on him.
Jeremy: Now, I can't leave the museum without them getting to me. They want me to comment about my run-ins with the Crimson Elite.
Curator: Well, if you'd like... *Opens a nearby window* ...you can climb out.
Jeremy: ... *Smiles a little*
