The provision of funds for archaeology in areas of tight state budgets employs archaeologists and emphasises archaeology. Extra equipment facilitates other work on local research priorities. Contract work with outside money enhances low salaries and research funds. New roads, maps, and aerial photographs open up otherwise inaccessible areas to research. Short-term feasibility studies by archaeologists in the initial stage could facilitate recruitment and training of appropriate personnel.
Seasonal considerations are of utmost importance.
Authority over archaeology should be unambiguous and should lie with the research arm of a national university. The discipline of an organisation used to dealing with research situations normally outweighs the problems of bureaucratic costs and delays. Work contemplated or financed through foreign missions should be tied into local co-operation and the employment of local professionals. Funds should be allocated separately for fieldwork, laboratory work, and publication. Contracts should contain incentives to cover accrued leave pay, resettlement, and pension upon the completion of fieldwork and submission of publishable site reports.
