How do archaeologists know where to find what they are looking for when there is nothing visible on the surface of the ground? Typically, they survey and sample (make test excavations on) large areas of terrain to determine where excavation will yield useful information. Surveys and test samples have also become important for understanding the larger landscapes that contain archaeological sites.

当地面上什么也看不见时，考古学家怎么知道到哪里去找他们要找的东西呢？通常，他们会对大片地域进行勘测和取样（进行试掘），以确定在哪里发掘能获得有用的信息。勘测和试样对于了解包含考古遗址在内的更大范围的地貌也变得十分重要。

Most archaeological sites, however, are discovered by archaeologists who have set out to look for them. Such searches can take years. British archaeologist Howard Carter knew that the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun existed from information found in other sites. Carter sifted through rubble in the Valley of the Kings for seven years before he located the tomb in 1922. In the late 1800s British archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans combed antique dealers’ stores in Athens, Greece. He was searching for tiny engraved seals attributed to the ancient Mycenaean culture that dominated Greece from the 1400s to 1200s BC. Evans’s interpretations of these engravings eventually led him to find the Minoan palace at Knossos (Knosós), on the island of Crete, in 1900.

然而，大多数考古遗址是由专门去寻找它们的考古学家发现的。这样的搜寻可能要花上数年。英国考古学家霍华德·卡特从其他遗址中发现的信息得知，埃及法老图坦卡蒙的陵墓是存在的。卡特在帝王谷的碎石中筛查了七年，才于1922年找到了这座陵墓。19世纪末，英国考古学家阿瑟·埃文斯爵士搜遍了希腊雅典的古董店。他在寻找一些小型雕刻印章，据认为它们属于公元前15世纪至公元前13世纪统治希腊的古迈锡尼文化。埃文斯对这些雕刻的解读最终使他于1900年在克里特岛上的克诺索斯发现了米诺斯王宫。
