Raiders vs Archaeologists


In the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones is an archaeologist searching for the Lost Ark. The Nazis are villains and raiders. They violently and destructively raid ancient sites and remove valuable artifacts. Is Indiana Jones also a raider? Is he violent and destructive?

In this video, police raid the home of a suspected criminal and remove him and stolen goods from his home. A raid is violent, destructive, and sudden. 


Viking Raiders

In this video, Viking raiders land in Britain. The Vikings raid villages where they destroy homes and steal food, property, and livestock. 

Archaeologist Howard Carter and Tutankhamen

Howard Carter was an archaeologist. He entered Tutankhamen's tomb and found valuable objects. He documented his finds and shared them with the world. He was not violent. He was very careful to preserve and protect what he found. He was not a raider.
