What is archaeology? What is it for? How can archaeologists explain themselves in a country highly literate but little aware of their work; and what can be done about amateur collectors?

In Estonia, the professions middle order, having witnessed the assertion of national independence from Russia in 1991 as youngsters, is now coming into its own with these issues.
