I came to anthropology through archeology, though more new world--Mayan, Incan, and Aztec, primarily. I don't have the patience nor the mental mindset to be a good archaeologist, though--my sense of spatial relations isn't strong enough--and the questions I was most interested in were better studied by anthropology where we can study actual interactions and talk to living people.
I got to see the King Tut exhibit in Chicago, and it was incredible.
