Why I chose my career

Hi everyone.

In this post I'm goint to talk you about the reasons because I choosed to study anthropology mention archeology; then, about what I wanted study when I was child. Finally, I´m going to refer to my expercience in the university.

Well, I want to study this career because is a holistic discipline: you learn about natural sciences and social sciences. In adittion, the career have three mentions: social anthropology, physical anthropology and archeology. You must choose one mention in third year. Currently, I'm in third year and I choosed archeology mention. I want this mention given that I think study societies without more record that their materiality is very interesting. Of course, studying a past society without writing implies analysis of many areas: bones, tools, resourches, enviroment, textiles, flora and fauna, etc. Then, we must realize interpretations about this materiality, based on the theory and models in the discipline to describe these past societies. Also, you can build yours own models. So, in this last point is its character social science.

However, before I studied three month sociology, in this same faculty. I didn't want to continue because I thought anthropology was a carrer that could give me a knowledge in more areas. Other reason was I always wanted to study archeology. In fact, when I was child, I wanted to be veterinarian, astronaut and archeologyst. I would like to work in a musseum in the future, when I became in archeologyst.

Finally, I can say about my experience in the university that is a place where you can known about many things, not olny knowledge of your carrer, also about different people with different thoughts. It's a place where you can share ideas about the world.
