GUEST,Guest / Digger Is Archaeology a thing of the past? (52* d) Is Archaeology a thing of the past? 06 Feb 02


Why do archaeologists and metal detectorists not get on with each other? After all it's the metal detectorists who discover most of the 'new' ancient sites. During lectures at universities, archaeology students are told to avoid metal detectorists and have nothing to do with them. Yet, on occasions they have used metal detectors themselves. Could someone please shed some light on this! Why is there so much bad blood between them? Maybe 'Fibula Mattock' can help put the story straight.
