Thanks Richard I was wondering about all that as Tony Pollard seems to be being asked a lot about Fromelles. I suppose there must be a TV series looming. I am a bit over “battlefield archaeology” in the media as I fail to see that the results really advance our understanding of the past in any great way. There is one good example the Maritime Archaeology of the Jutland wrecks in the north sea which clarify the actual location of the various incidents in the battle and the sequence of destruction of the battlecruisers.
Personally my view was that they should have been left “in situ”. I doubt that we learned much more about the soldiers or about Fromelles.

I would think that now relatives of many of the soldiers have some details of their loved ones (Richard's point 5) would be more than enough to justify the excavation.

It was never about the ‘archaeology’…….

Hello,
Interesting discussion thanks.
And for what its worth, I ALWAYS agree with Tessa.
Or if there have ever been any exceptions I have probably forgotten them.
Tessa maybe doesn't agree (or others might not agree) that Bambara Road (where all our ancestors were created by the Star People strand-ees [after the Mothership Rexegena exploded in the upper atmosphere above Brisbane Water) should be heritage listed .. i.e. that even PSEUDOSCIENCE is heritage (cultural heritage) ... IF there is enough of it (and Bambara/Kariong certainly has heaps and heaps, layers and layers, of it).
Cheers,
John
