What if the tools found were from ancient vikings? Who owns them, I say the finder always....If you know nothing about it, it cannot be yours....finders keepers, losers weepers....(from my childhood) GG

If your ancestors didn't tell you where such finds were, they aren't yours or your ancestors....

If they are from indian artifacts, which tribe, as many tribes have wanders the country....again, belongs to the finder.....Others should have no claim on them....

There were these porcine couples literally shovelling refuse into the back of their station wagons and driving off.

Would it have been OK if they were lean and muscular? What if one were fit and the other were pudgy?

So far, law enforcement has arrested 30 people for committing the crimes against history.
'Crimes Against History'? Oh really?

Then I suggest the Gubmint start rounding up the minimum of the 4,084(1) History Professors in the USA. As every one of the commie bast**ds commits a crime by distorting 'History'.

(1) Per searching 'Google Answers', there are 4,084 colleges & universities in the USA. Giving each 'college' one prof would be 4,084 (natch there are more than One Prof per school)

We see this happen along the Columbia and Snake Rivers during unusually low water levels.

Archaeological sites get looted and the history is lost.

Laws make criminals out of honest men.

Without the archaeological record, it is harder to piece together pre-history.
