Archaeological imagery
Archaeology is like playing detective to uncover secrets hidden in the past. Sometimes, we use special tools to help us see what was hidden a long, long time ago.
One of these tools is called archaeological imagery. It’s kind of like a special camera, but instead of taking pictures of people or things right now, it takes pictures of what used to be there a long time ago, even if there are no buildings or objects left today.
To take these pictures, archaeologists use satellites that are up in the sky, like when you look at Google Maps. These satellites take pictures from above the Earth's surface, which can help us see clues about what happened a long time ago, like old roads or buildings that aren't there anymore.
Archaeologists also use special cameras that take pictures of things beneath the surface of the ground, like what's under your feet. These pictures are called ground-penetrating radar images, and they help us see hidden things like buried objects, buildings and even ancient tombs or pyramids!
Archaeological imagery is like magic glasses that help archaeologists see things that are normally hidden from view. So by looking at these pictures, we can find out more about how people lived a long time ago, and what they used to do.
