Doctors need several years of post graduate training in order to be able to practice professionally, and that is after having taken a vocational degree which trains you in that particular job.
Archaeology degrees are generally not designed to be vocational, No university prospectus would claim that they are. They are not designed to train you to be an archaeologist, much less an 'excavation-specialising field archaeologist', which is what a lot of people on this forum mean when they say 'archaeologist'.
