Irish archeologists walking through the countryside with nothing to talk about because farmers keep tearing down their own country’s historical sites (reading Irish archeology books is depressing)

The archeology book Im talking about was mentioning they were on a time limit because the farmer who owned the land wanted to tear down the over a thousand year old ruin (maybe even over two thousand) because he wanted the land’s use as farmland. They weren’t able to finish their study of the ruins and its artifacts despite working overtime because they hit their time limit and the farmer had the ancient ruins demolished. That’s just depressing.
