arcaeology

A study of ancient welders and welding tools/techniques.

The study of arcaeology may indeed be fascinating, but you will want to wear protective gear to shield yourself from the sparks and fumes.

Areaology

The worship of the all-encompassing Area, AKA David Bowie's crotch. A kind of pseudo-religious cult practise that involves repeatedly watching such films as 'The Man Who Fell to Earth' and 'Labyrinth' in which the Area stars. Areaologists believe that the Area is with them at all hours of the night and day and that its presence can be linked to the creation of the Earth and all its inhabitants.

Areaology is quickly becoming accepted throughout most English-speaking countries.

Facebook Archaeology

To dig up old facebook posts by liking or commenting, flooding people's facebook spaces with posts and statuses from five years ago or older. This practice is most successful when done to posts made before facebook likes were implemented, staking the archaeologists' claim.

"Oh man, my wall is filled with embarrassing prom photos. Looks like someone did some facebook archaeology last night."

urban archeology

The act of digging through one's garage, storage, closets, etc in search of lost artifacts and or in the process of reducing the amount of 'stuff' collected over the years.

1. We're getting ready to move, so we're going to storage to do a little urban archeology.

2. I ran into Cynthia and had to do a little urban archeology to find her phone number.

Areology

The study of the structure of Mars. Similar to geology of Earth, areological study looks at rocks, dirt, terrain, and other physical features of the fourth planet.

Related terms include:
- areography (like geography)
- exogeology
- hydroareology (study of martian groundwaters)
- paleoareology

The areology of Olympus Mons denotes it is over 20 km tall. Areological study of the planet is difficult at such a distance, so the only areologists on the planet are Martian rovers. "Geology is the areology of Earth"

archaeology

1. (What archaeology should be) You've started your archaeology course. It's the first day, you have your hat, whip and designer stuble and are ready to go and kick ass. Everything is exciting, there are always nazi scum to shoot, imprisoned children to free and artefact s to "rescue". If you are an archaeologist you can also get laid easily.

2. What archaeology is :( . You're there, on your uni course, let's say in Exeter for example. Pen in hand. Peering around the lecture theatre at various other odd looking characters that look like they should never have been allowed to leave wales , sommerset or whatever random back country they escaped from. There's hours of looking at dendrochronology, pollen diagrams, and geophysical bull shit. (That's not the good kind of pollen either :( ) Archaeology causes insanity, a strong accent and excitement over broken ceramics .

Avoid at all costs. Unless you are already displaying archaeology symptoms, then you may well enjoy.

*queue theme music* Look at him killing all those nazi's! He must have done archaeology!

This week you will be looking at carbonised grain and what it can tell us about past cultures and how they farmed.
