<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ikandiggit, post: 978088, member: 16269&quot;]A lot of Central and South American countries (also Middle-Eastern), have &quot;antiquities&quot; that they sell to unsuspecting tourists. Some of the items are actually very well done. The stories are always the same &quot;been in the family for generations and we have to sell it now for food&quot; or &quot;it was found outside of an archaeological dig&quot; and so on. Every winter, after the tourists would return from their vacations in the tropics, I would see dozens of examples of pre-Columbian artifacts or rare coins and hear the same stories. They all thought there were going to be rich. It&#039;s a cottage industry down there and some families have been doing it for years.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
