Excavating is done by archeologists or scientists at sites. The excavated areas might connect to a series of sites. Excavations could last over a number of years because the work is usually seasonal. Archeologists excavate because they need to know about the past culture. The scientists and archeologists must remove any dirt by a machine. The dirt is examined to see if it has been untouched. Lastly, scientists also must keep a notebook with them while digging so they can write about the items they find.
A Viking burial site is in a farm in Vestfold. The archeologists found some nails from a ship and are thinking that Viking treasures will be unearthed. Alos, scientists think they might find weapons and jewelry. This is known to be the largest excavation of a Viking burial site. Next, there is a site that has a large royal cemetary of the Old Kingdom. It is composed of four kings' pyramids and surrounding tombs.
