Amazing that there is anywhere in that part of the world that hasn’t already been picked over thoroughly.

I’ve heard that the official policy of the Israeli government is that all these old treasures belong to the State and the finders are not compensated.

That surely leads to some finds being kept hidden and sold on the black market, destroying possible important archeological information.

England has a much better system that rewards amateur finders for the value of their discovery while putting the relics into full archeological review and display.

Who owns the treasure and if the government confiscates it is there a reward?

“The valuables might have been hidden in the cave by local residents who fled there during the period of governmental unrest stemming from the death of Alexander,” the IAA said in a statement.

Hiding assets from the tax collector?
