<p>[QUOTE="JoshuaP, post: 25702353, member: 114157"]I understand the heart behind your comment. I am taking a class on biblical archaeology and understand where you are coming from. In some cases, I agree with you. I think on major sites and important places you are absolutely right. Making public outstanding finds for more detailed research is also necessary. However, there is so much buried that I can hardly imagine it will all be found. Imagine if every cellar hole needed an archaeology team! Museums are already loaded with specimens just waiting for someone to properly identify and label them. I can't imagine that metal detecting a few fields will hurt much. That is how many artifacts are found, making great discoveries that would otherwise potentially never be uncovered. </p><p>This would be an interesting discussion, [USER=106405]@J.T.
