Did you guys see the news last week about the Artifacts from Cental and South America being looted by a collector?

My memory is rusty so I may not be accurate. A very rich guy looted a bunch of pottery, art, etc. from these regions. Luckily he was caught and all the artifacts were returned to their countys and put in museums where they belong. One guy said something interesting. I dont know if he was customs or a historian or archaeologist or whatever. But he did say somthing like this: "In this case the finder was no Indiana Jones. All the pieces went to a private collection."

Also, I was watching the travel channel, and they had a top ten countdown for the most incredable ancient places. THe Temple of the grail from LC in Petra Jordan was on it. THe narator guy said "Indiana Jones would be a usefull companion"
