This has been changed. You can now loot the Brittle Journal even at skill lvl 1.
I recently leveled archaeology from 600 to 700, it goes like this: for each successful dig (when you uncover the item which contains the fragments) you receive one point and when you finally solve one common artifact you receive five points.
