fear not about the justification... it will range from tourism benefits of archaeology/heritage (I know... an old chestnut) through education benefits via the long awaited McCrone Review... (teachers pay, conditions) and into the re-establishment of history beyond the standard Corn Law and Hitler --- ie... utilisation of the local heritage for multi disciplinary approach....ART, WRITING ?RESEARCH SKILLS, HISTORY, SURVEY, MATHEMATICS/GEOMETRY, SOCIAL STUDIES, BIOLOGY, CHEMITRY etc etc... I can also quote some work about social regeneration based on comunities finding their past - and therby the worth of where they live. Health benefits, etc etc... It also can be looked at from a developers point of view where it forms an important part of the business process... if you like... why pay twice for geotechnical work, land surveys, architectural surveys, even site contamination (ie archaeology) - recently archaeolgoists located several unknown pit shafts, which would have cost the developer dear...! The construction industry must be made aware of the value (in real cash) and I agree with the concept of creating national guide prices for work... ie An Evaluation in North England, on a site plot that is 100m by 100m and needs 10% trenching will be 1m deep and has a grade of 5 in likelyhood of archaeology being present... will = Â£ xxxxx

Developers don't like surprises... and archaeologists have to start acting like professionals if they want to be treated as such.

phew.... I am off to lie down..... any contacts you have.... grateful for your arm twisting capabilities!! Wink
