"Archaeology is the scientific study of tools and other artifacts left by those in the past. In Minecraft, players can also take part in this study! Through use of special tools and careful examination of ruins and other in-game structures, they can discover loot and artifacts to help them survive and explore the game environment. Readers will learn more about both real-world and Minecraft archaeology and the tools and methods used in both. Illustrations aid in understanding, and tips help make the most of the game experience"--.
