It has been much debated about why Oetzi was in the Alps when he died. The earliest theory is that he died during a winter storm. A more recent theory is that he was killed as part of a ritual sacrifice.
The most recent archeological research has them living with the Native Americans inland from where they started. They have found English artifacts within the dig of the village. Everything points to them living there.
Interpretative archaeology is one of the latest trends regarding Archaeological Theory (i.e. the way we view archaeological data, the methodology and theoretical background that affects our explanations and understanding... anyway it's complicated). Interpretativearchaeology is also known as Post-processual archaeology (i.e. Postmodern) but some might tend to separate them although boundaries between the two are vague. It is a trend that is "against" (actually) but also complementary to (as many leading archaeologists argue) to the previous trend, known as processual archaeology. It appeared in the late 80s - early 90s.
Archaeology is the study of 'human activity' and palaeontology is the study of 'fossils'. Meaning that whenever someone found bones/fossils, palaeontology has helped use DNA to find how long the bones/fossils have been there for. Archaeology has helped prove what palaeontology found out.
Archaeological sources are the primary fact or evidence supporting a theory or belief.A source could be written testimony of an event, occasion or ceremony, recorded at the same time (for example carvings on the wall of a tomb, the Bayeux Tapestry etc).A source can be physical collected evidence that can be scientifically validated, such a bones which can be carbon dated.A secondary source would be a second hand account of an event, while these are still considered valuable (especially if there are a number of independent ones that can corroborate an event) they are always open to interpretation. A classic example of this is The Iliad, by Homer, which recorded second hand accounts of the Trojan War and wove them into a story.In modern history it could be a photo, film, recording or even an interview.
According to the fashionable theory, in this period Rome was conquered by the Etruscans. However, this is just that, a theory. It has been challenged. Its evidence base is flimsy, to say the least. It is also based on unproven assumptions. Recent archaeological finds seem to suggest a different picture.
There is no actual proof to support the Aryan Invasion Theory. It was a weakly-invented story created by the British when they went to conquer India. The reason for the creation of this theory was to make the native peoples believe that they were inferior and had to succumb to the British. According to the theory, the Aryans came from an area north of India. Recent archaeological activity and many scientific studies have proven that this theory is false, so don't just take it from me.
Although the theory that the Etruscans conquered Rome is very fashionable, it is just that, a theory. It is based on unproven assumptions and it evidence base is flimsy, to say the least. It is most likely that the Etruscans did not conquer Rome. There is no record of it. More recent archaeological finds seem to suggest a different picture.
Charles Darwin's theory of evolution suggest that, yes, we are indeed descended from common ancestors of the apes. Later archaeological and DNA findings support his theory of evolution. However Christians or other religious people believe otherwise.
Well, I believe so. Recent studies supported that theory...
A king. It is now disputed that Rome was ever conquered by the Etruscans or were ever under Etruscan domination. The evidence-base of this fashionable theory is very flimsy and has been challenged. More recent archaeological finds seem to suggest a different picture. The republic was established by overthrowing the Roman monarchy.
The Communication Theory studies a specific study. It studies the technical process of information and the human process of human communication. This is what the Communication Theory studies.
If the Etruscans had destroyed Rome, it would have been the end of the city and there would not have been an empire unless the Romans would have recovered and managed to rebuild their city. If your question has been prompted by the theory that the Etruscans conquered Rome, note that is just a theory. Unfortunately it has often been put as a historical fact, rather than a hypothesis. The evidence base of this theory is flimsy and it has now been challenged. recent archaeological evidence seems to suggest a different picture.
Rome was always ruled by the Romans. There is a fashionable theory which holds that the Etruscans conquered Rome in the 6th century BC. This is just that, a theory. It has been challenged. Its evidence base is flimsy and it is based on unproven assumptions. Recent archaeological evidence suggests a different picture.
The fashionable theory that the Etruscans conquered Rome in the 7th century BC is just that, a theory. It has been challenged. Its evidence base is flimsy to say the least and its assumptions are unproven and implausible. Recent archaeological evidence suggests a different picture. There is no actual historical record of an Etruscan invasion of Rome.
Nobody took over Rome. There is a fashionable theory which argues that the Etruscans took over Rome in the 6th century BC. This theory has now been challenged. Its evidence base is flimsy, it rests on unproven assumptions and there is no historical record for it. Recent archaeological evidence suggests a different picture.
No-one knows for certain, but the most recent theory is that Stonehenge is a monument to the dead and that the people who built it actually wanted to build it and be part of the process in making a treasured monument. The most recent archaeological dig didn't find anything to indicate slaves built Stonehenge. However the 'most recent theory; is simply wrong, the Structure that everyone understands as Stonehenge wasn't even built at the time cremations were being casually inserted into the ditch and Aubrey holes of the earlier phase.
