Must have been touched by JC himself...
no I haven't seen it.
I have the final report, but this will be someones interpretation of what he has read, will it not?

Boy, someone's been trying to make a fast buck; that "used" price is obscene. I could have bought it when I visited the exhibit at New York University in NYC for about $26.00 in December, but chose not to.

The price could have been set by a computer.

The article blames Amazon's algorithm for the $23 million book in the article, but I think it was probably a third party, like the seller's.

Different catalogue I think. The one for the NYC exhibition was this one:-

Looks like the 'Crossroads' catalogue is still available from the McMullen Museum though, for a much more reasonable price:-

I think there may have been a hiccup surely, for £27-45 would be a more reasonable price.

The price has now fallen to a much more reasonable £219.56! :roll:

Sorry about the confusion - they are using the same image to promote the "Edge of Empire" exhibit. Still $219!! is way beyond what it should be priced.

Is the book any good? Does it offer any startling insights or advance our knowledge of the finds or the period?
If not, I wouldn't even part with the £42!

I've already seen those, including the persian(?) soldier they tried to drag to safety--for free at the library.
