to unearth it. Budding historians, archaeologists, and anthropologists will find
plenty to unearth in the sites and discoveries of this thought-provoking series.
Each insightful volume provides critical information about significant subjects
and time periods to support key issues in the elementary social studies

images and what they reveal about the
