Archeology does not build infrastructure to make people's lives easier but neither does any form of entertainment like Cinema, Music, Theater, Museums and others.

Medicine law and engineering are wonderful jobs, and necessary to live. But Art, History, Philosophy and Music are things we live for

It's fine if you're not a fan of it, but it's quite childish to think certain things are of less value because you personally don't like it.

History also helps us with politics and philosophy.

I studied history 😉

I guess I didn't make the sarcasm obvious enough 😂
