As a Biblical Archaeologist, he is among a select group of professionals worldwide. And as one of the few Black Biblical Archaeologists in the country, Dr. Dye is a popular lecturer, sharing not only with the Body of Christ, but with others, the awesomeness of God's creations.

He has taught archaeology for more than 23 years and has traveled to more than 22 countries around the world doing field work. Dr. Dye does travel study tours and he also works in the prisons, juvenile camps, private and public educational institutions, churches, clubs and various organizations, delving into the origins of life issues and records the fossils. He currently has archaeological projects in Mexico, Colorado, and Texas, as well as working on vertebrae paleontology and ichnology in Glenrose, Texas, at the Paluxy River Bed.

In addition to being a busy lecturer, Dr. Dye is a professor and director of the Department of Archaeology at Pacific National University where he also holds the position as president.

He credits Dr. Richard Fales (renowned Biblical Archaeologist from Northridge, CA) with changing the course of his life by encouraging him to study archaeology, because there was such a need for it to be taught in churches, plus he had never met a Black archaeologist.

Over the last eight years, Dr. Dye has studied Biblical Archaeology at the University of Judaism. In addition, for the past three years he has studied archaeology at UCLA, concentrating on Mayan Text, Mayan Sacred Text, the World of Rock Art, and Egypt After the Pyramids. His busy schedule is proof of his desire to obey the scripture which admonishes us to "Study to show thyself approved..."

"The more you study," says Dr. Dye, "the more Word you get on the inside of you, the more you are able to overcome any obstacle that is put before you. Preparation is the key. You must prepare yourself to be a channel through which God can use you to help others come to a knowledge of the truth."

Dr. Dye further states, "My thought is this: The search for knowledge and understanding of the physical universe and living things that inhabit it should be conducted under conditions of intellectual freedom without religious, political, or ideological restrictions, that freedom of inquiry and dissemination of ideas require that those so engaged be free to search where their inquiry leads without political censorship and fear of retributions or consequence, whether its unpopular or not, so those who challenge existing theories must be protected from retaliatory reactions."
