Science! Knobs! Beeping! Isolation! Tedious nitpicky labor!
If anything, I'd say it's a perfect first-date activity.

If you are in #Carmarthen next weekend, coming along to the county museum to support a #PortableAntiquitiesScheme roadshow event exploring #archaeology and #metaldetecting in the region - this event will feed into an exhibition on these themes, to be hosted at the museum in early 2024.

21 followers · 9 posts · Server fediscience.org#MetalDetecting is ate best a tragedy of the commons. Individuals appropriate #Heritage which is a collective good.
In some cases, using mechanical diggers, using pumps to lower the groundwater table, selling of the objects that are recovered, it is downright #looting. (Also, with the possibility of explosives near WWII plane wrecks, very dangerous).
Metaldetecting should be licensed.
