Abstract
Archaeological sites belong to all the peoples of the world. They should be regulate and protect by the laws. Cultural heritages’ law start from 1930s, in ROC. From antiquities, historic monuments to archaeological sites, regulation of the law for archaeology are becoming complete. Nowadays, “Cultural Heritage Preservation Act” have 16 articles about archaeology, duty of competent authority, classification of sites, record or designated and publicly declared procedures of sites, excavation qualifications, suspended and reported to administration when the site is under construction. However, some of current articles are inconsistent with archaeological concepts, even obstructed protection or research works in archaeology. This essay take some cases from me to raise some dilemma of law and actual manipulation, regarding some methods to deal with. In my opinion, to keep one from destroying archaeological sites, in the short term, we need temporary prescription to all sites in law. In the middle term, revising articles and structure of “Cultural Heritage Preservation Act”. In the long term, archaeological public education is the ultimate for protection work.
