Does anybody know where the first archaeologist to use the term "Heritage Receptor" lives. I would be also interested to know where their family lives, if they have any that is. I get 384 hits on google which isn't exactly viral and a earliest so far document dated January 2008 but I don't think that they are archaeologists using it.

Is a Heritage Receptor a special kind of nerve cell, conspicuously absent from most members of Planning committees? :o)

Heritage Receptor: The device used to target excavations so they provide hinds of, but just miss, all the interesting stuff.
I reserve the right to change my mind. It's called learning.

A finds bag surely!
Should we be using this new jargon on site now?
Does it mean my trowel is now a 'heritage extraction implement'?!

I have some sympathy for the use of 'heritage receptor' where no other term exists. I have seen it used in local government documents to indicate those who are affected as a results of heritage related decisions as well as the community of heritage professionals, amateurs, amenity groups societies and also the users of 'heritage', visitors, tourists, schools etc. it seems to me that 'heritage receptor' whilst not entirely elegant, does save a lot of space.....

you are kidding? isn't it a term for something that does not exist- like if it isn't in a receptor it cant be heritage.. these [people have lost the plot. next you will be studying Receptor heritage. Good luck

I have no idea what you are talking about....are you confusing receptor with receptacle?
