Archaeology
Archaeology is a field of study that incorporates many methods and theories of other disciplines such as anthropology , ethnology , sociology , history biology and geology . Archaeology itself can be defined as a set of theories , methods and techniques for the study of human behavior from physical remains of past activities . Through analysis of physical remains , for example , objects like pots or even dugout canoes , ships , and features , such as hearths , structural remains , such as buildings or locks , and flora and fauna . Archaeologists interpret the people and cultures they study . The further archaeologists go in their research , the closer they come to recreating an intimate portrait of their subjects and revealing more about the human occupation of the land . Archaeological research can take place anywhere - an urbanized setting or a remote location . For example , research can be prompted by a new construction project in the city , for an inventory in a natural park or as part of the designation of a historic site .

The Historic Sites and Monument Board of Canada recognized the national significance of Fort Lawrence (1750-1756) in 1923, while Beaubassin (1672-1750) was declared a National Historic Site of Canada in 2005. The architectural ruins and features found at the sites attest to the Acadian way of life and to the geopolitical struggle between France and England for the control of Canada.
