Review:
- Created on March 30, 2021
- Well referenced, exceeds minimum length
- Hook is in article and referenced; assuming good faith on an offline journal/annual report reference.
- QPQ complete

While I feel that perhaps there could be a better hook that points out that this sentiment was at a time when the British were digging up and relocating artifacts to England, that may be to hard to describe succinctly, so I digress. Good work! - Floydian ^τ _¢ 20:54, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
