How do I "un-archive" a team area?

I was playing around and I noticed an Archive... menu pick in the Project
Area Explorer. I opted to archive a Team Area. The icon changed for the
Team Area, but I could still operate on it.

I closed my client (eclipse) and re-started, and the archived Team Area is
no longer listed under the Project Area. Is there a way to get it back?

Frank,

Once a process area has been archived there is no way to undo it.
Archiving is essentially "delete" (although it does not delete the area
from the repository). It puts the process area into a state where most
actions on it are disabled.

That said, it is still possible to display archived process areas and to
browse their contents. You can do this by selecting "Show Archived
Areas" from the filter drop-down in the Team Artifacts Navigator.
