European can dig random spot in their backyard and found 700 years old artifact or 1000 years castle ruins

After watching Detectorists I was jealous but apparently there's a lot of laws prohibiting doing metal detecting
Couldn't you find coins or artifacts from all over the world?

You can go find Viking settlements on the east coast, and injun stuff is nothing to scoff at either.

Nigga if you're lucky you find an arrowhead in the creek near your house. That's it

That's cool as fuck though.

we've been trying to build a proper subway in Rome for years, but there's always a delay because the workers keep unearthing what's buried under the city and have to work around it. fucking romans

>>216520944

dont give him attention, he's from a part of the country where hills are considered mountains

>>216521184
Exception, rather than the rule

>>216520835 (OP)
we dont do that
we let them remain buried for future broke ass niggers we create by busting a nut inside vaginas

>>216521255
Yeah
Sad but some people in Arizona used to sometimes plunder old hill graves too
Basically on the top of certain hills there would be rings of raised mounds, I forget which civilization(s) their dead this way. The remains so old and the area was so dry that when they dug them up all that would be left of the person was a little white later of dust where their bones had been. And people would take the burial trinkets and donate them to museums or sell them privately and probably illegally.
I get that it's the only way of preserving any history about these peoples who died out or merged in long before western explorers found the place, but it makes me sad to think about their favorite stuff being separated from them after all those years buried with it

>>216521454
It is what it is. it is the same in my country. Our ancestors didn't leave any written records so burial goods will have to do.

You can dig anywhere and find millions native bodies in Canada.
