are archaeologists just grave robbers with a college degree?

Archaeology isn't just about grave goods, its about discovering facts lost over time. The vast majority of graves have nothing in them, but still contain a lot of information about how people lived and died. I have been lucky enough to have seen some of the objects buried with Tutankhamun. All I could do was wonder and admire the skill and craftsmanship of those people who lived so long ago

Yup. Of course, they like to SAY that mankind will benefit sooo much from all the graves they have robbed...but it's just not true. Native Americans are suing some Universities...like this one...

They dig with a spoon because they're paid by the hour.
