Archeologist

A Archeologist is a person who looks for ancient artifacts and tombs they analyze the artifacts to find what civilization it belonged to/ how the person died (if it's a person in a tomb of course).

They also go to different countries to find lost civilizations and artifacts. From doing all that hard work they get paid (it's their job). A famous and well-known archeologist character would be Indiana Jones.
An example would be: "John was an archeologist looking for ancient tombs in Egypt."
