LOL! Funny you should say that. When I was in field school, the archaeologists I worked with would declare, "This belongs in a museum!" whenever we found anything. My archaeology classes watched Indy for "Bad Archaeology Movie" night. It's pot hunting; not archaeology.

Early archaeologists were most definitely grave robbers. As a profession, we have a lot to answer for.

I saw that exhibit in L.A. several years ago. If you don't get to it, I assure you that you're not missing as much you might think. I was shocked at how poorly done it was. It was slick in terms of multimedia presentations but the items were kind of random and less important pieces -- and the signage was mediocre. I hate exhibits that expect you to buy an expensive catalog rather than present a full story in the labels.
