Every man has to make a living and that's his own business if he has his own business.
I hope you dint think I wanted to know what you charge... that definitely was not my intention.
If it came across that way... I do apologise.
In all honesty I am really confused.
One minute the searching of top soil is a valid point and the other hand
"In particular I think rarely will the collect of said artefacts will make the difference in determining what the importance of site actually is".
So why all the fuss about non recording Peter within various circles.
Its been stated that the biggest threat to finite resource is large housing development and that archaeology has become commercial to deal with the large amounts of land that is being developed and that archaeology is having problems justifying itself commercially.
Are sacrifices made to the heritage so others can get the contract?
Who polices this?
Should archaeologist be made accountable for their fees and what they do with the public money. Do the public have a right to ask what is being done in the name of heritage?
All honest questions as I dont understand the workings of the system.
