Archaeologists Warn of Gold Treasure Scams
The Department of Antiquities in Jordan has warned about the rising phenomenon of random searches for supposed treasures and buried relics in caves and archaeological sites. These practices exploit citizens' greed and threaten historical sites, leading to their destruction and the loss of valuable archaeological and historical artifacts. The department emphasized that some scammers prey on people's curiosity to achieve quick wealth by convincing them of the presence of gold treasures, which exposes them to scams and causes significant material and archaeological damage. Such reckless searches often result in the breaking of ceramic vessels and ancient jars that contain important historical information. The law imposes penalties for the destruction of antiquities, and citizens are urged not to tamper with sites and to contact authorities if they find any archaeological remains. The department also underscored the importance of Jordan's heritage in promoting national tourism and safeguarding cultural identity.
