Archaeology have got a capitalist identity in the 19th century or maybe
today,too. If you go to the British Museum or Pergamon Museum, you look at
the archaeological findings from Greece, Turkey or Mesopotamia.Archaeology
is one of the part of capitalist and imparialist discourse.
At the nationalistic aspect, in the west Archaeology has got a nationalistic
feelings. But I want to tell Turkish example in Archaeology. Turkish
Archaeologists work in a dilamma, because, we excavate Greek cities.But,
Turkish Nationalism is fed by Greek Nationalism. Some people asked us, why
do you excavate Greek cities? or Are you Greek?
The Archaeology in Turkey can continue to live in a non-nationalistic
system. Therefore, Turkish Archaeologists must not be "nationalist".

to Dear Gerry,
I want to ask you " WHAT IS REAL SOCIALISM?"
I think your sentence is very childish. Stalinism is not Socialism, It is a
nationalism or fascisism.
