A blog commenting on various aspects of the private collecting and trade in archaeological artefacts today and their effect on the archaeological record.
That's a shame then isn't it? But did they get explained the difference between using a tool as an aid to archaeological research and using the tool to grub out geegaws to collect? I would hope so. So if they see somebody doing the latter, they know the difference between what is happening and what should be happening. Thanks for the comment.
Paul, they did use a metal detector
