This is the great scandal of archaeology. Warehouses are full of relics packed away and never studied or written up.

Its more fun to go out and dig stuff up than to study it and write papers about it.

Its more fun to go out and dig stuff up —— and get your name in headlines.

Indeed, but this was a college course regarding museums.

“Museum Cultures: Material Representation in the Past and Present.”

But, I agree. It would be so amazing and rewarding to discover artifacts in the ground. Perhaps that will be her next course or even job.
