Sometimes at a site, archaeologists will put up big signs and chains, and it ends up attracting people, which is bad.
Looters don't just take artifacts, they even take equipment sometimes!
Archaeologists wear red paint on their forehead when they excavate so ancestors know that they aren't ghosts, they're living people trying to learn about the past and our history.
By just measuring depth/width, archaeologists and anthropologists can find out how long a site or artifact has been there!
You might not believe us, but an anthropologist at UCLA, Jason de Leon, told us these facts.
