I had similar thoughts traveling about Turkey last year. In some places, anywhere you turn, there's some as yet unexcavated Roman ruin. I think its government is more competent and certainly less criminalized than Mexico's, but under state management, it will be decades and a trebling of GDP before many of these sites get excavated.

If there was to be a free market in archaeology, I could see archaeology DAOs being created amongst enthusiasts to finance prospective digs. NFTs can be minted for every artifact discovered and token holders above a certain level rewarded with them.
