Airport extension set to crush important archaeological site




This is an article on a Native American site unable to escape the typical pitfalls of being impacted. Unfortunately, this is the type of thing that happens everyday all over the world to our cultural resources. All sites can't be saved, but in this case measures should to be taken to prevent the process of a runway extension for the airport. The more these important sites are destroyed, the less archaeologists can learn about our earlier cultures.
