Taking a Look at First World War Archaeology

With the development of archeology, a variety of new fields and sub-fields focused specifically emerged. During the past few decades, the formation of military and war related archeology such as battlefield archeology, conflict archeology, airport archeology, forensic archeology, large war archeology, etc. was seen. Archeology of history of violence. If you want to understand the archaeological research of World War I, you have to understand and understand the background.

World War I was a "first" war. This is the first war widely used by aircraft. Also, the so-called "Great War" is the first war involving tanks. The world 's first battle tank was invented by the British Army. Known as Mark I, it was first seen in the Somme fight in September 1916.

As a result, millions of people are hungry, and many people are losing their lives. When the economic situation in Germany improved in 1929, Wall Street collapsed and the Great Depression occurred. Germany is keen to solve their problems again

Kossinna's idea has retreated. Empire: Yes, that's right. One of the things that ancient DNA shows is actually that the culture of Corded Ware is consistent with the population of people. One of the co-authors resigned as we felt that we are returning to the concept of migration in archeology, that is, human beings are the same as human beings. A considerable number of other co-authors from various parts of the continent of Europe also have this anxiety
