Also most of the time you have explicit permission from the custodial group (I’m Australian) and they are also interested.

Usually archaeologists are so wholesome. Most of the time they’re in some random field and start cheering when they find a coin sized shard of pottery 😭🥰

Archeology if the past is extremely problematic and twisted, but modern archeology helps us to understand history and heritage

are you implying that it's not a problem in those specific countries but is elsewhere? that Britain wasn't colonised and indigenous cultures mostly eradicated?

This is unfortunately one of the reasons I was dissuaded from continuing archae study after undergrad, my friends were often hostile to the whole notion

I think sometimes people forget that history connects civilisations, and also that some things are not ours to take from the country they were found in and these can co-exist

The disconnect between groups is so weird. I think if I told my groups I was going into Arch, they’d just tell me how poor I was gonna be

What an absolutely wild take. Archeologists, even in countries affected by colonialism, is about conservation and study, not tomb raiding lol

I’ve been on a few projects that required the excavation of people, mostly cremations, but my company did things very respectfully, more than half my coworkers were natives, it was still heartbreaking

TikTok can be so American-centric. Like it's alright to be wary of white Americans digging up things in America. But yk not everyone is American
