Appreciate archaeology? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dig

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'appreciate' is the first definition.
(to dig can mean to appreciate or 'get')

'archaeology?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dig that I've seen before include "A brief archeological excavation" , "Cutting remark" , "Maybe break new ground" , "A brief archaeological excavation" , "Loosen or turn up earth" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
