Nah, give me a nice prehistoric site, where you can make up the entire story... "No job worth doing was ever done on time or under budget.." Khufu

Well I prefer the Anglo-Saxons. Nice unclear archaeology, ambiguous historical sources, occasional bits of delicious treasure. Wicked. Shame about the Normans coming along and spoiling it all.

Come on, where have all the Romanists gone? Is the archaeological profession still on some kind of post-imperialist guilt trip that refuses to acknowledge anything resembing an empire? Roman archaeology is the best. Every now and then it gives you just a hint of something a bit more exciting to dig than another post hole.
