Question

Witch is a primary way an archaeologist would decide where a tample stood A. evaluating clues on clay tablets B. reading about the remains of an ancient statue C. digging in a small rise in the landscape

Answer 1

Read about the remains of an ancient statue.

Answer 2

B - rading about the remains of an ancient statue.

While both A and C are very romantic, both would take ages for a professional working archaeologist to dig up anything useful in a reasonable amount of time. The most effective thing that he can do is read primary sources and based on those decide where a temple stood.
