Paleontology is the study of prehistoric life, if that's what you're after. Haven't you ever seen a Jurrasic Parc?

I'd like to see that. FMs stuck to their chariots can be some PITA, so I'd rather like to see them as regular elite unit.

I wonder if that's Kirk Cameron in disguise, based on that comment.

srsly people:

this guy (Ibrahim), is a paleontology student. his job, if he graduates is to dig for fossil life-specifically animals-then study them. the operative word here is "study them"

an archeologist, like say Indiana Jones

or the fellows who work on Mayan cities, dig up ancient human artifacts to study. the operative word here is, again, "study them"

is it really this ******* hard to understand the difference?!

**Moros** · 09-03-2010, 03:00

Nope.

Probably not, given past examples.

Is it true that archaeologists are some of the most wonderful people in the world, attractive, friendly, well liked etc?

It's true. One of my friends is learning to be an archaeologist and she's been wonderful, attractive (read: hot), friendly and well-liked (read this however you will, LOL) for as long as I can remember.

some of, but not the most.

Geologists (and by extension, Paleontologists*) are the most

*its technically a branch of Geology-it is a historical science-though in reality its on the border between Biology and Geology.

anyways, how on earth did we all get into this? we're supposed to be correcting some guy on Chariot use in Britain.

I believe it was this little gem of a statement that started the ball rolling.

lol, I will admit I always wanted to be a palaeontologist.

Aye that guy was me, I was only thinking about burial evidence when I posted this thread, I forgot about chariot fittings found at sites.
