do not mistake archeology for history they are 2 diferent fields the only part in archeology where there is politics is in the funds distribution and normally the teams have very litle impact in and the polititians and college/university leaders normally decide according to seneriority previous results and historical interests (ofc thats my experience and here only public fundings from institutes and university´s suport archeological diggings and researche )
