What I'm saying is that this question is irrelavent.

There's thousands of stones already in museums, this one I do not think (and stand to be corrected) is spectacularly more significant than many of those. To date, very little research of any sort has been carried out on these stones and most are piled up out of site in storage.

If anyone ever got funding to do this type of research they could easily make a start on any of those stones and latest dig up this one and re-bury it if they were desperate to complete the corpus.

You are saying that we should put this in a museum just in case someone actually wants to do this research in the future - its a generic argument being applied to a specific argument.

So if I said "I'd like to know if all stones were the product of a single carver" you'd back my case to ship them all into museums?
