The information should be available to all - not just those who know the secret handshake. Why should I get to see it and my next-door neighbour not?

It's a debate that depends on the artefact/site.

If you can't see that some sites must be kept secret to protect them, then I won't bother posting on this any more.

On this principle everyone should be informed of any digs going on so they can go to help, or just look, even though the site may get damaged. I know some archaeologists are only too happy to have people on site but if hundreds go there will be damage as not everyone knows how to act properly on a dig site
I think fitz is being responsible and caring in the way he has acted
