based on what. What evidence have they got for its provenance?
Surely from an archaeological view point this object should always have a question mark against its providence. I would take this further and suggest that any museum which would consider that it should waste its funding on acquiring and conserving this object rather than archaeology found in an average watching brief should be held in contempt by archaeologists.
