Of course, I wonder about the ethics of trading in bottles that most likely
were dug up from the very privies we are trained to study. By fueling the
market, are not we killing our own business and contributing to the destruction of
the very history we are trying to research? I know this will seem naive, but
when I served on an architectural history orginaziation board I prevented them
from selling architectural elements for that very reason. How different is it
from buying bottles to arrowpoints on Ebay?
