One presumes the writer has never walked through a museum or watched a historical film or read any 'olde' works of fiction Dickens, Bronte et al, that he has no interest in Shakespeare etc. Archaeology is of the past as are they. Why should every thing need to have a 'use'. I thought we had climbed out of the trees some time ago and in so doing took an interest in our collective past. What’s the use of archaeology? ask him to shout that out at the next IFA shin dig, sorry conference....
