"Ancient artefacts will be lost when tunnel for A303 is built"So, it's good to see that all that expensive "archaeological" outreach by PAS pays off and British journalists have some idea concerning what modern archaeology is about ... Somebody tell them that archaeology is much more than merely digging up interesting artefacts. We are not in the 1870s any more.

ReplyDeleteMind you, MPP's assertion that "We are looking at losing about half a million artefacts" is no small matter. It equates to about 5 months of knowledge theft by UK metal detectorists, but they've been doing it at that rate for decades.
