Indeed we all have and need models to understand the world. However your model may not be mine nor should we ever assume that our own models are applicable to all societies & people. There may be societies (and people) whose world view suggests that archeaology is pointless. For me personally archaeology is a basic need but only becasue I have all the basic necessities of life to hand take those away and I might think very differently.:face-stir:
