archaeologist 

A person who studies the past from the material culture left behind by humans.
A popular misconception is that they study fossils or dinosaurs (this is Paleantology)but this is not true. Many male archaeologists have beards, and they are considered as "weird" from most of the population.

archaeologist 

A person who studies the past via the evaluation of artifacts, ecofacts, and geofacts. Archaeologists do NOT study dinosaur bones. Archaeologists DO have to navigate through a maze of red tape in order to study said items due to the fact that political correctness and all around silliness have created ridiculous laws that impede scientific study so that peoples feelings do not get hurt.
Archaeologist: "wow I just found a site that has 20,000 yr old human remains, these human remains and all the artifacts found with him could tell us how and when humans came to north america, this could be the most important find in the last century"

Random Government/Tribal official: that is too bad, because even though these remains are 20,000 years old I still believe they could be a native american ancestor and therefore I am going to prevent you from studying anything at this site so I can make sure that the government pays to just rebury everything. sorry for your bad luck but my feelings come before breakthrough studies beneficial to all humans"

archaeologist 

A woman that dates much older men not for monetary gain e.g. someone who dusts off old bones.

Canadian Archaeology 

The act of trying to dig your car out from underneath a significant amount of snow from an overnight snow dump. Clearing away the snow slowly reveals more and more of the vehicle much the same way archaeologists brush away dirt to uncover things. Usually occurs whenever you are late for something important.
Hey boss I can't come in to work today I gotta do some serious Canadian Archaeology to even find my car let alone drive it.
