I'm not altogether sure that this is a totally valid excavation. Wasn't Traprain Law heavily excavated in the early 1900s? I know they want to assess damage, but there are sites out there we know almost nothing about that would benefit from this 'dig time'.

What will they do with things that have been damaged? What can they do, the damage is done? Yes exposed areas may need to be protected, but ... erm ... they are exposed. Surely you don't need to dig them up - you just protect them.

This one all seems a bit pointless to me.
