one time in the 2000s there was a new discovery of a species of short hobbit like hominids i think found on a pacific island. The bones were at some convention for archeology, and some big shot archeologist showed up and just took them. He grabbed the bare bones with his bare hands stuffed them in a bag and walked off
I remember I was taking a community college class on something similar to archeology. I think it was called sociology. Or something. But the teacher went on a rant about that incident. I think the big shot was British and she said British archeologists think they are superior to American ones. And often do crazy shit like that. Just boss people around
