/pol/ here, I know you do not like us. That being said I thought I would share this with you. I don't thing I have ever been legitimately angry at something on here. The destruction of artifacts though touches a nerve, I am truly disgusted. How often does shit like this happen? I know ISIS did similar stuff, but does anyone else?
>Sweden's cultural heritage is destroyed systematically - objects from the Iron Age are sent for metal recycling
>It is Johan Runer, archaeologist at Stockholm County Museum, who has been alarmed about how the county boards in Sweden disregard our cultural heritage. The reason is that (((they))) do not consider themselves having the resources to take care of and conserve all metallic objects found in connection with archaeological excavations.
>But the archaeologists did not have the resources to take care of everything and were forced to "grind" a large number of objects, that is, send them to the shots. Among other things, a variety of coins and buttons, a knife and a ring. Other items thrown out are amulet rings that were ritual objects of the Forensic Swede during the Vendel and Viking times.
>((((((((According to SvD's cultural writer Ola Wong, it is about "getting cheap and cheap away from the cultural heritage" in order to get started with planned road or house construction. Runes also say that archaeologists do not give away or sell the find to collectors, something that could save them to the aftermath. The reason is that you do not want to create a market for antiques, thus encouraging robbers to go out with metal detectors to search for their own findings.))))))))
Also, I know the vikings were not that great. It does not matter whose history is destroyed it should be punished with death.

The leftist movement tends to promote this kind of "identity" reformation. ALWAYS. All these people changed the names of the streets, profaned tombs, destroyed history, burnt "false" books. Shit like this makes me so angry. They did the same on Peru and they are trying to do it on Spain. They literally want to take Franco out of his tomb... I'm not even pro-authority, yet these savages are obsessed about a radical delete of the culture just to resemble the past socialist countries. Goddamn I'm so fucking mad right now.

Now I know to sanitize my posts here next time because apparently you people ignore the message and focus solely on the messenger.
Anything to push their agenda. Even the destruction and removal of the confederate statues in the southern USA, I don't give a flying fuck for the confederates, but that was history. You don't destroy monuments to men who died in battle, it is wrong.
Zachary Torres
A fair bunch of findings, mostly on urban areas, are done when there are construction works. Today archaelogical studies are mandatory and public projects tend to respect that but they usually force archaelogist to work really quick to beging with the constructions. And when private interests are involved the care tends to shrink some people avoid telling anoyone about findings on their private properties to avoid archaelogists stopping their projects for months. They prefer to build over archaelogical sites or just destroy then.

Jordan Thompson
this is the result of capitalism
every western country does that, you see when you build something new, a road, a pipe, a building, you need to move the soil, and you cant tell what that soil could hold
maybe an entirely new cemetary that shows our ideas were wrong about living and who what culture or tools they were using, but its not unearthed properly because
it costs too much time and money, yup culture makes no profit, so it has to go
thank your profit driven minds for it
Dylan Wood
Soviets destroyed a lot of archaeological sites.
Lincoln Kelly
kek, don't worry cuck that day is coming soon
Jackson Smith
At least Soviets didn't pretend to give a fuck. The problem with capitalism is that even if people did want to preserve such stuff, the profit notice overrides such impulses.
But don't let such minor nuances get in the way of your whataboutism
Leo Foster
soviets introduced a law that there needs to be a probe digsite to see if theres anything, if there was the place was halted till it could be properly unearthed
thats how several sites were saved and found, until the law was abolished by construction lobby
William White

Isaac Nelson
Instead of doing literally anything else with the artifacts they are being destroyed. Give them away, sell them on the black market, donate them to a school, throw them in a ditch, anything but take the time to destroy them forever.

Jason Nguyen
ISIS destroying history in middle east Sweden destroying their own culture
nothing else is new
but if is correct. There seems to be overall some sort of monkeying around with history.
I mean we all know that the victors write the history books. Maybe if they reset culture the resistance to marxism, socialism, or a one world dictatorship/republic etc... might be easier to implement becuase future generation will have nothing to tie themselves to ancient history and will only have contemporary culture as a referant.
I must say it is a brilliant , but infuraiting strategy for an ideology to impliment.
maybe the facists need to start making marble statues en masse. start casting all the ones we have now, so incase they do fall under isis we will have back ups.
I know museums have casts of smaller works, but for the larger ones something should be done.
Alexander Wright
They literally say in the article you've posted why they aren't doing it. But da joos and libruls amirite XDDD
Adrian Gray
Why not write an email to them and suggest that then?
Tyler Thompson

Cooper Hall
>for the larger ones something should be done. Too bad we can't scan all of them with lasers or something so we have 3d models.
Mason Carter
Oh no! Some rusty bits of unidentifiable metal and pottery fragments are thrown away because there's 57468845 of them in the archives and there's no more room or funding to keep them.
This happens in museums across the world every single day. Not every single bit of old shit is important.

If only some museums were already doing just that! But nah, that can't be the case, because museums are part of (((((them)))) and are secretly seeking to destroy all the stuff in their galleries.
Benjamin Reyes

>Runes also say that archaeologists do not give away or sell the find to collectors, something that could save them to the aftermath. The reason is that you do not want to create a market for antiques, thus encouraging robbers to go out with metal detectors to search for their own findings. They don't want to create a collectors market by giving or selling to collectors, so what would stop them from giving to schools? Think of the children, if someone here in america donated arrowheads to a class it would be appreciated. Rather than say smashing them because they don't have the money or time to store them.
Nicholas Scott
It's not a history thread. It's a /pol/ thread complete with dank ((((())))) memes and a complete lack of understanding of the subject matter.
Austin Hughes
>implying little shits won't just smash the arrowheads, just they ruin everything else.
Matthew Reyes
Speak of the devil
Justin Morales
Because the article itself explains why they don't do that, meaning they already considered the idea. Of course, the thread is about /pol/ having a fit and not about the issue.
Oliver Richardson
Consider the following. Tin cans are now considered antiques by most definition of the term. In 500 years, how many to cans do you reasonably expect a museum to keep hold of before they just start throwing them away?
Robert Ortiz
That justifies destroying them instead? Because a kid might smash them?
Thomas Cox
>/pol/ here >The reason is that (((they)))
What did OP mean by this?
Brandon Adams
This. A thread about the state of archaeology has nothing to do with history if the OP found the article on /pol/. *wipes sriracha-fingers on Scott Pilgrim t-shirt* Damn I feel better about my 2.4 inch cock after making this post
Anthony Long
>Other items thrown out are amulet rings that were ritual objects of the Forensic Swede during the Vendel and Viking times. Not exactly tin cans.

How is that based? I left pol a looong time ago but that is destruction of cultural heritage without blinking an eye. that shit belongs into a museum ( queue indy theme here)
Sebastian Powell
He copied the thread from /pol/ and left it as is because he felt he should credit his source.
Adrian Perez
Yeah, because we're totally talking about the state of archaeology. Definitely not just engaging in conspiracy theory about (((((them))))) and liberals right?
Landon King

Litterally archaeological code for "we don't know what this is"
Ryan Morgan
>conspiracy >leftists Retard. The radical cultural change is the basis of marxism. The change of names, destruction of identity and profanation of history is what literally happened on every socialist country.
Socialdemocrats share these values too. On Spain there has been a fucking public matter about taking Franco out of his tomb for gods sake.

>cut museum moneys >leftists proceed to burn and destroy the artifacts Hmmm... Cultural marxism is based on the marxist postulate that all societies are supported by their economic system and should be radically changed from that point. Cultural marxism follows the same methods of dialectical wordplay yet affirms that culture is the basis of society and should be radically changed.
Jacob Martinez

Ah yes, /pol/, the well known academicband trustworthy source. Leaving in that you found something there, really helps the credibility.
Not /pol/ with dates etc.
Matthew Cox
This, Gramsci is actually okay tier, even if you're a /pol/ack you should read him.
Ryder Martin
Perhaps they'd have more archives and more staff to examine artefacts if budgets weren't slashed
because /pol/kikes need to be called out wherever they set their slimy foot
Joshua Reyes
Slashing funding doesn't put the artifacts on the forge to be melted, user.
Lincoln Phillips
>leftists proceed to ? This is "profanation of history". This is fitting history to your narrative. There's nothing about leftists in OP.
>Cultural marxism is based on the marxist postulate that all societies are supported by their economic system and should be radically changed from that point. >muh cultural marxism conspiracy Not a real thing. And the people associated with the conspiracy, like adorno, would absolutely oppose this. On the other hand, calling "marxist" something that goes against what marx wrote is exactly the kind of "profanation of history" for ideological reasons you are supposedly opposed to. You don't give a fuck about history and you actively distort it to fit your conspiracies, then blame the people you dislike of doing the same.
