Archaeology is fun little book about most interesting archaeological facts around the world. Book is filled with interesting photographies and maps so you get good picture of how ancient ruins looked like and where are they found. Weakest parts are the articles that have only most basic informations and look like short wikipedia pages. All in all this is a good book for all people interested in archaeology that don't want to think too much on archaeology!
