Google "don miller artifacts" and you can see pictures and other accounts. It's really extraordinary what this guy had. I can't believe this wasn't bigger news.

- Accujack 5y agoYeah. If he'd have been younger he'd have been prosecuted for doing what he did... sympathies of his neighbors notwithstanding, this guy probably destroyed more information about native culture than any other person since Cortez. Plenty of people nowadays get their vehicles seized and jail time for getting caught digging one hole somewhere they shouldn't... this guy wholesale looted graves for decades and people thought he was just a nice old guy.
