Barry Fell has some delightful background on the early history of
archaeology in an early chapter in "America BC".

It is truly sad, but does explain quite a bit, that you rely on Barry
Fell,
and a chapter in his "America BC" to learn about archaeology!

You don't show you know what Barry Fell wrote about the beginnings of
archaeology in his book.


I know full well what he wrote in that book.

It is my observation that most current archaeologists dismiss his
work.

Correct, because most of it is complete bull. Even modern epigraphers (what
Fell was) distance themselves from a lot of his stuff in order to be taken
more seriously.


For background please see -

His background was discussed in much more detail than Wikipedia right here
over several years.
