There are both the cause of the social environment and the long -term archeology that is isolated from the public and lacks good interaction with other industries in the society.

The number of applicants for the national examination this year exceeded 2 million, and the registration ratio reached 68: 1, but for the Institute of Archaeological Research Institute of the Dunhuang Research Institute, the recruitment positions have not increased in recent years. Essence Director Zhang Xiaogang of the Institute of Archeology of the Dunhuang Research Institute admits that "the mainland has attracted a lot, and no one has come to us." Facing this status quo, the Dunhuang Research Institute was helpless.

On the one hand, there are frequent search on the archeological excavation site, but the other is the real archeological post. The contrast of the two days of ice and fire must be a kind of embarrassment. Another little -known comparison is the huge pressure of archeological work and rare archaeological workers. In fact, it is not just the Dunhuang Research Institute. Archaeological talents are urgent, archeological work and research pressure are increasing, and they have become the common status of museums at all levels and archeological research at all levels in the country. The word "more" Zhang Xiaogang's director is the reflection of this phenomenon.

Archeology takes the study of ancient social history as its own responsibility, and is essentially a basic humanistic discipline. However, from a large social environment, the social survival environment of archeology is not optimistic. In the wave of economic development, archeology has always shown people with the "unpopular" major and "unpopular" industry. The employment surface is narrow and the job capacity is small. There are greater difficulties in enrollment and employment. Many adjustments are for adjustment. In addition, due to the misleading of certain public opinion, archeological majors are often regarded as closely related majors that are closely related to collection and Jianbao, which shows a "deficiency heat" under misunderstanding.

These phenomena are both the causes of the social environment, but also the reason why archeological has long been isolated with the public and lacks good interaction with other industries in the society. No matter what the reason, it eventually has an adverse effect on the training of archeological talents, causing the archeological students to have a low professional interest and talent in talent. In recent years, although there are various "archaeological fever" public opinion blessings, they can inevitably "say in their mouths, but their bodies are honest."

Judging from the actual employment situation, not high salary is the main reason why archeological work cannot be recruited and cannot be kept. In the archeological circle, such a self -mocking was often circulated: looking at it from a distance, looking at it like a carbon digging, and looking at it carefully, I went back and inquired. It turned out to be the archeological station. Although this era is gone, the working environment of front -line archeology is evident. Many graduates are usually full of feelings and expectations before going to the field archeology. However, after several months of "destruction", most of them will choose to switch, or enter colleges, or enter relatively idle and stable units such as museums and cultural museums.

According to statistics, the Peking University Institute of Archeology and Culture, which is a benchmark for archeological professionals, has a total of 69 graduates in 2018. Among them, there are 39 undergraduates, and most of them choose to continue their studies. Most of the signing employment have become civil servants; a total of 20 masters of graduates, 4 people who have entered their studies, and of the 16 of the remaining employment. Municipal Cultural Relics Research Institute); 10 doctoral students, only 2 people chose the Archaeological Institute, and worked at the Institute of Archeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Ningxia Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology. This statistical data exposes the realistic situation of the archeological industry: on the one hand, the field archeological front line is urgent to lack high -quality talents; on the other hand, the overall treatment of field archeological front lines lacks attraction for high -quality talents and families behind them.

The birth of modern Chinese archeology has been born for more than a century. The scale of archeological teams and work has continued to expand. It has also achieved many world -famous important discoveries and achievements. The academic research system has also improved. However, with the continuous improvement of the national economic and cultural level, archeological research and work have also entered a period of rapid development. In the new period, new environment has put forward higher requirements for archeological research, work and archeological talents. Cultural and social development requires a systematic system. For example, in the case of reforming the personnel system, in the case of a full amount, the business unit allows business units to flexibly use business funds to recruit contract employees to realize the mechanism of complementary and mutual benefit of employees and contract employees inside the unit; reform the salary system, increase wages, allow the Archaeological Office Pay with the treatment of colleges and universities in the local area; reduce the threshold for recruitment, control the quality of talents, and realize diversified talent recruitment; it can also encourage the establishment of archeological companies and promote the formation of the competitive model of the benign industry. Archeological work is not just an academic work. The front -line archeological talents not only bear the work of exploring and exploration, but also the heavy responsibility of protecting history and culture. Attaching importance to talents, developing talents, and retaining talents are not only the need for archeological development, but also an important representation of the great development of national culture.
