Analysis / Bias

In review, the magazine and website publish news related to archaeology and discoveries. The information is presented for a lay reader to understand. Articles and headlines do not use loaded language, such as this Erosion Exposes Shipwreck on Florida Beach. While most stories originate from other sources such as local media, others are derived from peer-reviewed studies but written in an easily digestible way.
