@caitlinrgreen I missed something here. What is wrong w/ detectorists?
@greg_jenner @MZiegler3 Oh, really? I didn't know that. Reminds me of conversation having earlier about looting of important Syrian sites :(

@caitlinrgreen@MZiegler3 yeah lots of Thracian gold being kicked from tumulus tombs -
@greg_jenner@MZiegler3 Yes, just been reading about some of the destruction... really doesn't sound good :-/ -
@caitlinrgreen@MZiegler3 no, it's forcing archaeologists to do speed excavations - smash and grab -
@greg_jenner@MZiegler3 No room for the 'Sutton Hoo approach' there :( [large parts of SH unexcavated, to do in future w/ better techniques) -
@caitlinrgreen@MZiegler3 well there are thousands of tumuli, but it's obviously a question of where the Mafia will target
