The Views of one FLO on Portable Antiquities Issues, Archaeological Outreach and Archaeology


For reasons discussed above, in 2018 I spent a bit of time here examining the views of an FLO on portable antiquities issues, archaeological outreach and archaeology. It's not very edifying. But I have decided to index these posts here in case they might be of use. The guy started off claiming that by blogging about these issues I am engaging in bullying, it goes downhill from there:
