About
the Series
How did the ancient Egyptians build the
pyramids? What was Stonehenge used for? Did ancient Rome really have indoor
plumbing? All these questions and more are answered in the new series
Digging into
History.
Readers will discover how archaeologists excavate
sites, what artifacts teach us about the past, and why it’s important to
protect archaeological sites. Each highly illustrated title gives the reader a
close-up view of one archaeological mystery with photos and text of the
site’s discovery, archaeological research conducted there, and significant
finds. Each book includes full-color photographs and informative sidebars on the
tools archaeologists use to uncover history.
