Burma Spitfires Merged thread. Put all new info in here please.

What is a "conflict archaeologist"? Is it a derogatory term for a specialist who is sceptical of the dig, or is it an archaeologist with particular knowledge of the conflict in Burma?

[RedToo]

Archaeologist specialising in the archaeology of war.

Aha. Thanks, I thought it might be the archaeological equivalent of whiner.

I honestly thought it referred to the conflict between the archaeologists and the Burmese government; the gubernatorial/archaeologistical fracas.

It looks they might at last start digging in the right place (where they originally found a crate), and not miles away at another location as they have been doing. No wonder the press all went home.

They wont mess around out there they will kick them out if the rumour mongers continue as they are.

Its just a sign of the times that if there's no instant gratification the knives come out and this story seems to go with that trend, if it were 20 years ago we would know little about it until it was all over and a statement issued in the press, lets hope the forum trolls and press hogs all leave them to get on with what they went there to do without acting like a bunch of kids "I want I want I want" .

I sincerely hope they find something related to the RAF I just don't hold much hope for brand new crated wrapped in grease serviceable Spitfires, I guess I can hope though

you could shove over all your money to me, I guarantee you 25% - p.a.
If it doesnt work out you still can hope, though.

You're being had.
