This past is a foreign land to the majority of field archaeologists working today; similar to the 'more people alive today than have ever died'. I concur that today gives us a better package of employment and prospects than then - if only we could have more of our workload focused on viable archaeology rather than the often fruitless seeking of archaeology. At least pre-planning guidance you knew you would actually be going out to work on the real stuff.
