Abstract	This archaeology resource packet provides information on frequently asked questions of the National Museum of Natural History (Smithsonian Institution), including the topics of: (1) career information; (2) excavation; (3) fieldwork opportunities; (4) artifact identification; and (5) preservation. The packet is divided into six sections. Section 1 is the general overview section. Section 2 provides two teaching activities for archaeology in the classroom (one for grades 4-12 and one for grades K-8) to demonstrate what can be learned from material remains at an archaeological site. Section 3 is a teaching activity for exploring historic cemeteries. Section 4 offers random strategies to present archaeology in the classroom. Section 5 allows students to reconstruct Babylonian society from Hammurabi's Code of Law through a code analysis exercise and comparisons with their own culture. Section 6 includes an annotated bibliography on "Civilizations of the Past: Archaeology and Ecology" for teachers and one for students. Also, a list of films with access information, other teaching materials, and additional student activities are provided. (Contains a list of other Teacher Resource Packets available from the Smithsonian Institution.) (EH)
