<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrbrklyn, post: 302060, member: 4381&quot;]That is very interesting.&nbsp; There is a strong sentiment in the US that property is an absolute thing, and there are very strong constitutional guarantees about the state&#039;s non-interference with property.&nbsp; But there is no denying that property is not an absolute concept.&nbsp; Especially as we move forward into the future, there is all kinds of needed constraints on land use, even if the property is private.&nbsp; Aside from the fact that nearly every land deed in the US goes back to a native american land grant, which are sometimes challenged in court and WON to the dismay of the property owners, obviously all kinds of cultural and environmental impacts need to be accounted for.&nbsp; Obviously one shouldn&#039;t be able to damn a river that runs through your land.&nbsp; But this cemetary issue brings to light other cultural aspects.&nbsp; You may need a permit to even investigate cemetary, let alone remove it or dig it up!.&nbsp;&nbsp; And most people don&#039;t have miniral rights.&nbsp; Nor does that consider air rights, right of passage, grazing rights, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>Eventually there will be a need for an antiquities law if one doesn&#039;t already exist.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ruben[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
