The United Kingdom (sometimes referred to as Britain) has a long and rich history of human settlement. Traces of buildings, tools, and art can be found from periods going back many thousands of years: from the Stone Age, through the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, the time of the Roman colonization, the Middle Ages, up to the beginnings of the industrial age. Yet for most of the twentieth century, the science of archaeology, dedicated to uncovering and studying old cultural artifacts, was faced with serious problems and limitations in Britain.
First, many valuable artifacts were lost to construction projects. The growth of Britain's population, especially from the 1950s on, spurred a lot of new construction in British cities, towns, and villages. While digging foundations for new buildings, the builders often uncovered archaeologically valuable sites. Usually, however, they proceeded with the construction and did not preserve the artifacts. Many archaeologically precious artifacts were therefore destroyed.
Second, many archaeologists felt that the financial support for archaeological research was inadequate. For most of the twentieth century, archaeology was funded mostly through government funds and grants, which allowed archaeologists to investigate a handful of the most important sites but which left hundreds of other interesting projects without support. Furthermore, changing government priorities brought about periodic reductions in funding.
Third, it was difficult to have a career in archaeology. Archaeology jobs were to be found at universities or with a few government agencies, but there were never many positions available. Many people who wanted to become archaeologists ended up pursuing other careers and contributing to archaeological research only as unpaid amateurs.
In fact, both the lecture and the passage discuss about presumable problems which are limited archaeologist in the United Kingdom. Although, the passage brings three theories for expressing the issues, the professor puts those hypothesize under the question. According to the professor, none of these applications are convincing.
First, As the passage mentioned, destroying the wealthy artifacts in order to build new modern building is counted as the most effective factor which threaten the preservation of old antique constriction; however, the professor illustrate the enacted laws which obliges people to examine the buildings before starting other works in the civilization projects. This test contributes artifacts to be conserved.
Next, as the passage indicated, financial supports of government are so low that constrain experts to do the bests; in other words, the amount of budget allocated for investigation in this section cause the quality to be declined; nonetheless, the professor doesn't reinforce the reason by emphasizing the fact that funds should be paid by construction companies also it isn't duty of governments
Finally, the passage declares the thought that experts who have studies archaeology can't find relative job easily; therefore, many people albeit like to increase their knowledge in this field, they would rather to choose another major in order to be more successful; nevertheless, the professor doesn’t validate the claim by adding the fact that archaeologist have been hired in all stages
