The second question frequently asked regarding Schliemann’s legacy examines his motives and skill as an excavator: was Heinrich Schliemann a good archaeologist? This question has two sides.

the duties of fixing only diesel powered engines to fixing things that do not have diesel powered engines. Also one works on small cars and trucks, while one works on big trucks, boats, buses, and construction equipment, such as bulldozers, and excavators. The career paths of Diesel Mechanics and Auto Mechanics also have both similarities and differences in terms of the duties involved, the rewards, and challenges. It is also important to notice the similarities and differences in terms of the
operations ended as specialists got to be warriors. Just a single North Carolina mine stayed in operation: the Silver Hill Mine amongst Lexington and Denton. It created zinc, lead, silver, and gold.

In 2004, the world was shocked by the discovery of Homo floresiensis. The discovery opened up worldwide debates about the validity of the species. To this day, the excavators and researchers are still examining the archaeological site at Liang Bua to get more insight into whether or not H. floresiensis was extinct before H. sapiens, or if their existence overlapped (Callaway et al., 2014). However, with the information from the excavation that already has already been researched, aids to the validity
