Classics is divided into a few different sections, but basically it's the study of Ancient Greece and Rome. You study different facets of their civilisation and in first year you study two tragedies, Medea and Antigone if I remember. I'd say if you have an interest in that sort of History with some mythical stuff thrown in, it'll be a subject you can enjoy for the year.

Archaeology I have no idea!
