@SwampFlower I feel this a bit but then I’m biased

@AnthroKenj Is it really bias though? I don't think that is quite the word.

@SwampFlower Mmm I mean it is I want to feel that’s what the answer is but when it comes to archaeologists that say these things and want nothing to but to help natives then I have to re evaluate that answer

@AnthroKenj Maybe you give the archeologists too much credit. 😅 I doubt they are really motivated by altruism.
