Interesting list that. Makes me think that it really isn't a good idea to leave anything behind - seems like most "offerings" will cause damage of some sort, which surely doesn't indicate any sort of "respect" on the part of the person leaving the "offering".

Also interesting that it points out that it is actually illegal to bury anything at a site.
