Archaeology is the study of the past. Archaeology tries to reconstruct the buildings, possessions, the events and the lifestyles or cultures of people that lived in the past. History records events changes and lifestyles, but these are often written about from the view of an important person and how it affected that person and other important people in society.
Archaeology however tells a story about people from all walks of life.
Lots of interesting stuff on both history and archaeology here.
