To a certain extent, that is true, jeff. However IMO, there has been a certain levelling out in class (if not in ethnicity) amongst professional fieldworkers in the 20 plus years I've been working in archaeology. Probably as a result of the succession of YOP/YTS and MSC programmes that were running in the late 1970's to mid eighties, more then anything.
