Declaration of Helsinki
Ethnoarchaeology, which is the study of living people for archaeological purposes, is sometimes used in conjunction with traditional archaeology. Ethnoarchaeology presents a unique case, because it deals with the study of people, which is heavily regulated. Any research dealing with humans must be submitted to an ethics committee for approval under the Nuremberg Code (1947) and the Declaration of Helsinki (1964). Researchers must also obtain informed consent from their research subjects.
