disadvantages of selling fossils to the private sellers
The reading and the lecture are about likely disadvantages of selling fossils to the private sellers. The author provides three theories about the negative outcomes of selling fossils to the wealthy private buyers. On the other hand, the professor is not convinced of this and casts doubt on each of these theories. The lecturer, is of the opinion that these materials are kind of exaggeration and selling fossils not only is not really terrible but also overweight not selling them.
To begin with the author argues that by selling fossils the public access to them will be blocked and fewer people can view these valuable materials. In the article It is also mentioned that public viewers will lose their interest in prehistoric fossils. This specific argument is challenged by the lecture. According to the professor, public communities such as schools and universities can by fossils instead of collectors and display them in public exhibitions.
Secondly, the writer disputes that scientists will lose access to the outstanding discoveries camouflaged in fossils by selling them to collectors. To delineate, scientists and laboratories are not able to compete collectors and grad fossils. In contrary, the lecturer opposes this notion by asserting that scientists have access to fossils before putting value on and selling them to the costumers. The lecturer elaborates on his opinion by bringing up the point that nothing can be missed out during this time that fossils are available by researchers.
Finally, the author averts that commercial collector demolish vital evidence laid on the fossils during unearthing them. More over, it is stated in the article that researchers can come to important scientific proofs by filed work and studying fossils in their bed and surrounding. In contrast, the lecturer stance is that commercial sellers can find out more fossils than scientist and it is more important to unbury and find out more valuable fossils than just conducting research on the location of these fossils.
