My thoughts on this grave robbing.....Cover the entire area with concrete and leave it be....These places were created as “Do Not Disturb” areas. Rest in Peace means just that!!

Where do you cross the line from archeology and grave robbing?

The main problem with not preserving and cataloging these ancient graves and their artifacts is that there are looters - both individuals and state - who will do far worse at some point.

Either they will loot to profit or loot to destroy.

There are many examples of this throughout history.
