Perhaps I've been a little flippant with the 'degree' issue. People of this generation are far better informed than their predecessors. Going back 50 years ago however, there was, and perhaps still remains, a reluctance to contradict accepted wisdom and 'go with the flow'. I am willing to be contradicted and indeed educated by those better informed. Did those digging in barrows, mounds, etc in bygone times, find buried valuables? Or was the pursuit of same just opportunism?
