Archaeology (BA)
Columbia University · New York, United States
About this programme
Archaeology is the study of the material conditions inhabited and acted upon by people in the past and present. As an academic discipline, archaeology has come to mean many things to different generations of scholars, yet all approaches share in common a focus on the physical remains of the past and on the interpretive acts that enliven these remains and are challenged by them. Investigation of the past through the study of material remains is entangled with historiography, politics, and individual and collective memory, and is implicated in the production of present-day communities and identities. At Columbia, archaeology is a multidisciplinary field practiced by faculty and students in the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences.
