“Archaeology, I found, comprehended all manner of excitement and achievement. Adventure is coupled with bookish toil. Romantic excursions go hand in hand with scholarly self-discipline and moderation. Explorations among the ruins of the remote past have carried curious men all over the face of the earthâ€¦ Yet in truth, no science is more adventurous than archaeology, if adventure is thought of as a mixture of spirit and deed.”
-- C. W. Ceram
