Researching history of my best giving fields just find proposal from big USA company to turn them in to gravel pits... #Gutted PS. Local council is trying to challenge them... How can I save my permission and save history?? Good advices are much welcomeThe question is of course how much of that "best giving" found its way to the SMR when the planning permission was being sought? How much of the archaeology of the site(s) having served for some time as Mr Kolakowski's best pocket-filler survives his depredations in a state sufficiently intact to merit an investigation or protection? Why, anyway, is the site being researched only after he's emptied a lot of it into his pockets and not beforehand to establish some sort of programme for the serching? Saving history, when it is written only in the archaeological record, is more than some random bloke taking a spade to it and pocketing a few loose pieces of it that he fancies for his collection.
[PS: and if Mr KoĊakowski decides to leave crumbling Brexitland for the sunnier uplands of what I asssume to be his native fatherland in the free-movement EU, what will happen to all the artefacts dug out of the British archaeological record? "His" permission, but the archaeological heritage is that of the national territory.]
