Abstract
The present paper attempted to detect the all possible methods used in archaeology and also tries to pick up modern tool which is to some extent less destructive to the archaeological sites in modern time. The methods can be put into three regions: selecting sites, collecting artifacts and ordering the past artifacts. The prehistoric time involves uses of organic and inorganic materials which may crumble to dust when exposed to atmosphere. So, it has also been explained in the present paper about the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) which is a Non-Destructive Techniques (NDT). Secondary sources served the purpose to track out all the possible methods. The methods help to discover archaeological sites and artifacts which are then dated by different dating methods and are arranged in an order. Later, the experts may trace about the prehistoric settlement pattern, trading system, religious belief, artworks and social organizations by interacting the artifacts.

If we want to site an example of survey, we may put the example of Cache River Archaeological Project (CRAP) which was under the contract of US Army Corps of Engineer
Summary
The world is a place of suspense which can be uncovered by layers of layers beneath the soil. Anthropologists have always been interested to know the early cultural pattern of the prehistoric people. To do so the different methods, tools and advanced technology have brought a revolutionary change in the field of archaeology. − To track out all the methods used in archaeology in a nutshell. − To detect the techniques and tools for identifying archaeological site, to excavate and to put the artefacts in an orderly manner − To track out all the methods used in archaeology in a nutshell. − To detect the techniques and tools for identifying archaeological site, to excavate and to put the artefacts in an orderly manner
