Ngokusekelwe esigabeni esilandelayo esiphathelene ne-paleontology, uyini umehluko phakathi kwe-paleontology ne-archaeology?
Context:I - paleontology isemngceleni ophakathi kwe - biology ne - geology, kodwa ihlukile kwe - archaeology ngoba ayihlanganisi ukucwaninga ngabantu banamuhla. Manje isebenzisa izindlela ezithathwe ezinhlotsheni eziningi zesayensi, kuhlanganise ne - biochemistry, izibalo nobunjiniyela. Ukusetshenziswa kwazo zonke lezi zindlela kuye kwavumela izazi zezinto zakudala ukuba zithole ingxenye enkulu yomlando wokuziphendukela kwemvelo wokuphila, cishe yonke indlela ebuyela emuva lapho uMhlaba uba namandla okusekela ukuphila, cishe eminyakeni eyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezine edlule. Njengoba ulwazi luye lwanda, i-paleontology iye yathuthukisa izingxenye ezincane ezikhethekile, ezinye zazo ezigxile ezinhlotsheni ezahlukene zezinto eziphilayo zezinsalela kuyilapho ezinye zifunda imvelo kanye nomlando wezemvelo, njengezimo zezulu zasendulo.
I-paleontology ihlukile ku-archaeology ngokuthi i-archaeology ihlanganisa ukutadisha abantu banamuhla ngokwakhiwa komzimba kanti i-paleontology ayihlanganisi.
