Re: Archaeologists see treasure looting taking all of the shipwrecks

Whatever happened to "finders keepers?" And just what is it with the Spanish, anyway?
They still think that whatever treasure they got from their New World colonies is theirs,
even if it's in a wreck of an English, French, or Dutch ship, it seems. What the
archaeologists don't seem to realize is that the deep-sea wreck hunters have the tech and
financial backing to do their exploration, and without that, no one would be studying anything
on the bottom in water that deep.
