An obvious challenge that archaeologists face is the presence of pot hunters. When they destroy archaeological sites, they are tampering with the cultural evidence contained there. Another challenge would be if an archaeologist was unable to analyze the artifact due to a lack of information recorded about the culture that it belonged to. Without relevant information, I would assume it’d be difficult to determine cultural relevance if one doesn’t know what the object is meant to be or to do. I would think there’d be many challenges faced when archaeologists are excavating artifacts or uncovering, recording, and preserving archaeological sites. It’s a very tiring and tedious job that would take hours to days to complete.
