In a sense, yes.So archaeologist and biological scientists interrogate the rocks and other things they find?
Every day of the week law enforcement officers and scientists use "forensics", and there are people in prison today whereas the crime was not witnessed but the evidence clearly showed that Joe Schmoe did it: Fingerprints, d.n.a. evidence, tracing their tracks, etc.
Depending on what's found, where, and what surrounds it, evidence can be presented, and this also includes what biblical archaeologists do as well.
Since there was no reason to assume that it was being aimed at anyone else, why would you mention it if it wasn't a slam against me? It was just you and I, remember-- nobody else? So, why did you bring it up if it wasn't directed at me?Did I say you?
How do you read? Perhaps you should read it again.
