- nsajko 6y agoThe goal of science is to obtain knowledge and, in this case, learn more about the past and someone's heritage; not to loot.

It's a careful process that pays as much attention to the ground being dug as it does to individual items, because surroundings provide clues about the object's provenance. A "swarm of amateurs" with profit motive will not care about any of that.
