@@Vlish how bad is the pay? Its always been a dream of mine but it doesnt seem like I'd be able to make money, and even though I know its not about money I want to have a family in the future and not be broke.
@DestructeurDe It depends on the area and the company you work for. Places like California may pay more, but the cost of living may also be higher as well. Since I have more experience with the American Southwest, this is the region I'll be talking about. The cost of living is lower, and generally the pay as well. I've seen or heard the pay rate is between about $15 an hour to $22 an hour. I've heard that one company (which I'm not going to name) pays it's crew lead (the equivalent of a shift lead) with a year or two of experience about $18 an hour. I've only had one interview where they offered me a little over $18 an hour. The rest were $20 to $22 an hour starting off. On top of that and the typical benefits like health, PTO, stock options, we also generally get per diem. Which, depending on the project and if we're camping, can net you up to an additional $1800 a month. Remember, this is just the starting pay at the start of your career. About 5 to 10 years in (sometimes a tad bit sooner), you can become a project director if you have at least a master's degree. This job's salary is between $60,000 and $90,000 a year. I know these numbers are lower than some of the trades and STEM careers, but it's certainly doable and livable. I rent a nice apartment in the nice side of the city where I live. All of my bills are paid, I have a working vehicle in good condition and in the talks of buying another vehicle, I support two dogs and a cat, and I save up to $1000 a month.
Research positions are few and far between. By far, the job market is dominated by CRM. Conservation is a different discipline than archaeology with its own training and career path.
Hi Elizabeth. Do you know if there are undergraduate programs for conservation? I always thought that the training was encompassed in graduate-level programs. I am near completion of my double-major B.A. in anthropology and history, though my heart is set on a career in conservation... I was just curious if you had advice on entering the field of conservation
There is way more options for Archaeologists. And old/historical buildings are not very much connected to archaeology, it differs if building needs further excavation, the people who do research and take care of old buildings are more Art Historians and etc…
I really want to be an archeologist so bad. but I’m thinking academic researcher might be good too. Like I would actually enjoy it. :) Also totally random, but what camera do you use? I love the quality of this video 😆
Aw that is so exciting!! And I use the Canon G7X! I really like it! I think most people use it to vlog but I use it for everything hehe. Thanks so much for asking, I love talking photography/videography
Hi guys I have a question about dirt! When they unearth archaeological sites in the world it seems like it’s buried deep and they have to dig it out. Does that mean over long periods, the earth accumulates more dirt:earth/organic matter?? Could I assume over a long period my house would be underground? Hope I’m making sense
In a way, yes. Wind, water (rain, floods), erosion, or dirt, dust, sand, etc. Some stuff was buried by natural disaster, others by demolition, expansion, and essentially building on top of what once was (see: Italy, France, England, much of the Americas, etc.). Some stuff was buried intentionally, others discarded and naturally buried with time. For example, open ditches. A perfect place to throw your rubbish. When the people moved, or the landscape changed due to say invasion, conquest, or simply an increase in population, the ditches either filled naturally or intentionally. Could you assume over a long period your house would be underground? With modern building practice I'd say it is fairly unlikely. Though in the case of an extinction level event, or societal collapse, sure, perhaps in a couple thousand years the debris and remnants of your past life may just be dug up.
I’ll be a bit open here. (My bad for typing so much) I don’t have an aim. And because of people constantly asking what my aim is, I’m really bothered and possibly nervous now. But here’s a thing, I’m afraid of going to new places and adapting to them. Maybe because I’m an introvert? Idk. Nevertheless, I recently discovered this subject and it really peaked my interest. I have a slight interest in history so I was wondering perhaps this could be more comfortable for me. I believe I still have time but everytime I think about it, it feels like time is just shortening quickly. So yeah.
Does anybody know if I can get a minor in anthropology and possibly work at a museum by drawing or taking photos and or work with archeologist drawing or taking photos???
Hi! I would recommend looking into anthropology/archaeology filmmaking; I think there could be some of your interests there. Also, I took an anthropology class on documentary photography and that may be worth looking into as well. Good luck!
@@AliviaBrown @ama01duarte Museums may have an Assistant Curator of Works on Paper and Prints. The person is responsible for the photographing of the works. Also you can check with your regional museum and perhaps request an informational interview.
Yes! It has more to do with your work experience than actual degree. I recommend getting involved with museums sooner rather than later :) You got this!

Hello. I’m interested in studying archeology. Can I ask you some questions? How long do you have to study to become an archeologist?
Not the case in the US. Tribal and other descendant consultation is a critical component to any archaeological research.
If you're analytical and like research, archeology is for you?
Thank you so much, I'm finishing my senior year of high school and want to major in archaeology. Now I have a start on what I want to do!
Of course! I'm so glad!
I'm an archeologist myself. If you want to do it in a non-academic space, I suggest on doing a field school and doing a GIS class.
