I agree with both of your posts (9 and 14).
Unless he was trespassing on someone's private property - more power to him to hunt for old relics. The fact that they are calling it an 'archaeological site' means little - given that that entire part of the world is one large 'archaeological site'. It must be thrilling to find some of these old coins. If I lived out there I'd be happy to do the same. This seems another case of the government trying to ensure that our 'betters' get special treatment, and keeping the serfs on the reservation.

I bought a Roman coin in Covent gardens in London once. Theodosius I, I think. It’d probably be a crime to fly home with it today!
