All this demonstrates the average 'professional' archaeologists pitiful understanding of contract and professional law. If archaeological degrees adopted the legal modules taught to the architects, surveyors, engineers, planners etc. down the corridor (real professionals), we wouldn't be having this discussion.
I suggest many of you need to 1) buy a copy of the CoC and GN, and 2) buy some basic text books on contract law and construction law. I can recommend Murdoch, J., and Hughes, W., 2000, Construction Contracts: Law and Management(Spon). Ironically, the authors work at Reading University, probably down the corridor from the IfA (Institute for Aitchison...only joking Peter)
