In my essay I will study the injustice within science in movies, in this particular case: Archaeology. This essay will also examine whether there is reason to believe that there is a connection between this unfairness and what's being displayed of the archaeologist in popular culture. In my case I have decided to focus on the movie industry because it's a dominant part of our daily life.

Greek islands face a series of problems that can put their sustainability at risk.

Reformationen var inte bara en religiös och andlig företeelse. Den gjorde också anspråk på
