Has the US government ever deployed funds to search for treasure of any kind? If so, why?
How has he US government been involved with these, historically?
It may not be the clearest of questions, my apologies.
Hey there! Could you clarify what you mean by "search for treasure?" Searching for treasure and archaeology are quite different things. While I or other users here would certainly be interested in discussing the history of publicly funded archaeology in the States, it might not be what you're interested in.
