Excavation helps archaeologists recover hidden facts from the past. For example, in August 2014, archaeologists discovered two ancient Mayan cities in the jungles of Mexico. This was an important discovery, considering the rich heritage of Mayan culture. However, many argue that excavation is a destructive process. It destroys part of the data in that site and may hurt religious or cultural sentiments. Do you support this argument? Is excavation helpful or destructive? Should archaeologists choose not to excavate sites of religious importance?

explanation: we can only guess at how our actions may be perceived in the future. doing something really big like killing lots of people, saving lots of people, affecting the lives of lots of people is a sure fire way of being remembered in historical records. we can also make a difference in the history records by being a small influence on something bigger, whether that is as a civil servant, scientist or artist.

of course you could argue that we all affect history just as tiny cogs in a   bigger machine.

if you mean how do people influence our opinions of things which have already happened, then simply by writing a book which looks at things form a different perspective and trying to convince people that this perspective is more accurate or truthful. people do it all the time i.e. richard the third was a terrible or was he? plenty would disagree, it's just that their views aren't the most widely known.n:
