Are there dinosaurs?

Unfortunately no, archaeology is the study of the evidence of human activity in the past. Dinosaurs were a long time ago, and fall under the study of Palaeontology.

Would I ever get a job if I study Archaeology?

Yes! Archaeologists are in high demand in Cultural Heritage Management, both in the private and public sector. It is a wide interdisciplinary field, with loads of opportunities for you to follow your own interests.
