Sorry, I did not make myself clear. I did not mean academics or research excavators literally, as in universities, I meant those seeking to study the past by means of archaeology, as opposed to those seeking trinkets for their own sake.
First paragraphs, absolutely, that's the distinction I'm trying to make, a responsible MD (for want of a better term) with appropriate objectives and methodology, is what I see as a specialised archaeologist. The others I have have grave () doubts about.
I think we are agreed, I'm just not explaining myself very well...
We owe the dead nothing but the truth.
