Saw this story in the daily rag at work the other day & when i read that it needed to be rcovered to a museum befor the natives get to it and dissmantle it, made me wonder just what the natives had been upto for the last 60 odd years

Yeah, I read it & thought the British have just "discovered" it, but the locals have probably been falling over it for the last half century.
