  3. Vocabulary • Pre-historic – before written history. • Archaeology – the scientific study of material remains of past human life & activities. • Anthropology - the study of human beings & their ancestors through time in relation to culture, environmental & social relations.

  4. Archaeology 101 • When archaeologists study past cultures, they estimate when these people might have lived in Georgia. For example, the term, “Paleo” means “very old” and refers to any person who was alive in Georgia during that time period. So, Paleo is more of a time period than a name of a tribe.
