The topic is about the serious problems and limitations in the British archaeology field. The lecture refutes the three ideas mentioned in the reading passage by arguing that the new rules and guideline in 1990s would improve these situations.
To begin with, the lecturer suggests that the new guidelines require an examination of the construction site by the archaeology experts before the construction starts to see if the site is an archaeology interest. If it is a valuable site, the relevant people will gather together and make a preservation plan. The reading passage, however, argues that the construction projects would destroy the valuable sites without preserving the artifacts uncovered during the construction process.
In the second place, the lecturer indicates that according to the new guideline, the construction company would support the archaeological research. The company would pay for the examination before the construction and all the archaeology works done at the construction site, which is a whole new financial support. The funding of the construction company would allow the researchers to study a far greater range of archaeology sites than they could in the past. The reading passage gives the opposite view. It says that supports from government funds and grants are inadequate. Many interesting projects were remain unsupported.
Lastly, according to the lecturer, the new guidelines provided a lot more paid jobs for archaeologists than before. Archaeology experts are hired at all stages of the project. Increased jobs and careers have increased the number of archaeologists in Britain, which is the highest it has ever been. This is in direct contradiction with the claim in the reading passage that only a few archaeology positions are available. Many people end up with other jobs and contribute to the research with no paid.
