Archaeology provides insights into early human life by studying artifacts, structures, and remains left behind by past societies. By analyzing these material remains, archaeologists can reconstruct aspects of daily life, social organization, technology, economy, and cultural practices of early humans, helping us understand their behaviors, beliefs, and adaptations to their environment.
"Preserved remains" is when you keep the remains of a dead person and treat them carefully. We preserve the remains of ancient humans and such.

carbon dating
Trace fossils refer to evidence of ancient life that is not the actual remains of an organism, such as footprints, burrows, and coprolites (fossilized feces). Body fossils, on the other hand, are the actual remains of an organism, such as bones, teeth, and shells. Both types of fossils can provide important information about ancient life and the environments in which they lived.
Paleontologists study prehistoric life forms. They use fossil remains to determine several aspects of various organisms who lived in ancient times.
