That is a very good point Belzoni.
Why EH dont organise systematic surveys on these areas.
If its been cleaned and recorded.. there is not a reason to go on there.
I dont know why they dont see it.
There are literally 1000's who would be willing to help... but NO... well just let it rot.
With the attitude... "we cant afford to look at it... neither should those pesky metal detectorists.
When it comes to seeding site...
You have no idea of the capabilities of modern machines.
Your just polluting the enviroment .. cant really beleive you can think about doing that.
What about tomorrows archaeolgy... can you imagine...
Where did all this foil and iron come from??
Bloody stupid archaeologists from the previous generation thinking they know better than everyone else.
they where offered support and kept turning it down and took their own selfish methods.
