Great discoveries have been made and skulls, bones and artefacts have been unearthed. The real truth is that some discoveries of Roman settlements have been found by constructors and covered up, they do not want to be delayed in the works as it will cost them huge financial penalties. constructors are hiding the discoveries. the only ones allowed to be seen by the archeologists are those away from the roads route.
many bodies, skulls and artefacts have successfully been recovered and saved, but many more are being destroyed and hidden, this cannot go on. We have lots more to learn and lots more to find. We only have one chance to find out what history still lies beneath the soil before it is destroyed and buried beneath traffic heading for the Olympics in Weymouth.
Please, Please, show your support and any help

I ask because its been widely reported that other sections of the road construction have included archaeological excavations, along with analysis and subsequent museum exhibits. So its unclear why that should change now.
