Friday retrospect: The Fellowship of the Antiquitists


The Fellowship of the Antiquitists Sunday, 8 November 2015
one of the newest Fellows of the Society of Antiquaries is anxious to earn his collectors' street cred as being just as much a classless oik as the metal detectorists who are (the main) avid readers of and contributors to his blog. Mr Hooker cannot answer the questions that are raised about what he writes, so instead has decided to replace debate by provocation and then block replies to his nastiness. That is, ladies and gentlemen, the way "independent scholars" like him work.
Whether the Society of Antiquaries decides to continue to tolerate such and other image-damaging behaviour as this from one of its Fellows remains to be seen.
