Deb, I have to agree with you but then again as studied history and archeaology it appears the only difference with it being okay...... is time. We continue to search for grave sites of the ancient world and disturb them for the sake of knowledge. We would still plunger the celtic or indian burial mound if we thought there were treasure in it. We don't even give it a second thought when we find a site of the red paint burials and even less if the site is prehistoric.

Not saying it's wrong or right. Just an observation of Human nature when it comes to grave desacration. By the way...How many of us have an Egyptian Sarcophagus with mummy in our living rooms?
