KEY WORDS
Introduction
In his 1930 essay ‘The State as Educator,’ Fromm posited that ‘if…both the
present criminal justice system and even the modern penal system…are inef-
fective and unsuitable for the attainment of their own goals, then there must
be other reasons as to why society holds on to these ineffective measures with
so much determination’ (Fromm 2000 [1930]:124).
Archaeology as State Heritage Crime
Heritage Crime
Heritage 2012; Grove 2013; Grove and Thomas 2014a; Historic England
2017; Hough and Beckford 2012; Mackenzie and Green 2009). Despite its
popularity, use of the term in North American literature is virtually nonex-
istent. An internet search conduced on January 12, 2017, of the terms
“United States” and “heritage crime” produced one relevant result (ie.,
Shelbourn 2014). The same search conducted for Canada produced no rel-
evant results.
In an early study of cultural heritage crime in the Nordic region, Korsell
et al. (2006:7) defined heritage crime as
theft of cultural objects from preservers, such as museums and churches, and
from dealers, such as antique shops and auction houses. Cultural heritage
crime also includes the illegal movement/export of protected cultural objects
that even though they are legally acquired, may not be taken out of the
country without a permit. The illegal import of these objects from other
countries also constitutes cultural heritage crime. The looting of ancient
monuments and protected shipwrecks is also included.
Several different types of thieves steal cultural objects: thieves who sponta-
neously exploit an opportunity, addicts who steal whatever they can find,
professional thieves who steal whatever they think might be valuable, thieves
who work on commission and thieves with knowledge of cultural objects. In
the questionnaire study, the victimized preservers and dealers say that the
most common motive is financial gain.
as the destructive impact of the search for saleable artefacts, can and does
have an impact on cultural heritage and the historic environment. Recogniz-
ing this, there is a growing movement to categorize certain crimes as heritage
crimes.
State Crime
Focused academic study of state crime predates heritage crime studies by a
number of decades (Chambliss 1989; see also Barak 1991; Friedrichs 1998;
Green and Ward 2004; Michalowski and Kramer 2007; Ross and Rothe
2008; Rothe 2009). Nevertheless, the field has transformed significantly in
recent years (Rothe and Mullins 2011; Watts 2016), particularly in how it
approaches empire (Iadicola 2010), civilization (Watts 2016), globalization
(Chambliss et al. 2010), and the victims of state crime (Rothe and Kau-
zlarich 2014a; Watts 2016).
Like the definitional debate in heritage crime studies (Thomas and
Grove 2014:4–5), what constitutes state crime is strongly influenced by
how the terms “state” and “crime” are defined (Michalowski 2010). This
affects not just what is deemed state crime but also who the victims of
state crime are. As Rothe and Kauzlarich (2014b:8) explain,
Defining a victim of state crime is dependent upon who is doing the defin-
ing. A victim is culturally defined and a person’s social reality is subjective—
one may or may not self-label as victim where another, in the same circum-
stances, may. This is further compounded when the labels are externally
decided and applied.
includes a state’s own domestic law as well as the broader umbrella of inter-
national public law (customary law, treaties, charters, and the newly emerged
criminal law) (Rothe 2011). This framework includes other approaches and
standards such as human rights and social and economic harms.
begins with the realization that crime has no ontological reality and it is sub-
jectively defined by states within the context of broader issues of power, and
political and economic interests. In the case of crimes of the powerful, harm-
ful activities are rarely defined as criminal. Many acts and behaviors that
Archaeology as State Heritage Crime
cause serious harm are not part of the domestic or international criminal
law, thus being omitted by those using a stricter rubric such as the legalistic
standard. Those advocating this framework suggest that harm can be defined
as physical, financial and economical, psychological and emotional, sexual,
and cultural.
Juridical
A solely juridical approach to assessing state heritage crime would immedi-
ately falter, for most states have legislation designed to manage heritage
and oversee the CRM process (Pokotylo and Mason 2010). By definition,
the state is not guilty of a crime if it acts within the boundaries of its own
laws. Therefore, in the case of archaeology, only where a state permit has
not been granted and heritage destruction has occurred can the concept of
juridical heritage crime be introduced.
However, the inclusion of international treaties changes this dynamic,
for it holds the state accountable to something larger than its own domes-
tic policies (Ahmed et al. 2008; Battiste and Youngblood Henderson 2000).
In colonized contexts, such as North America, the most important interna-
tional treaty is the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous
Peoples (United Nations 2008).
Therein, Article 11 affirms the rights of Indigenous peoples “to main-
tain, protect and develop the past, present and future manifestations of
Archaeology as State Heritage Crime
Juridical/Deviance
The third key concept stemming from UNDRIP’s Article 11 is the state’s
obligation to consider Indigenous laws, traditions, and customs in relation
to Indigenous heritage. This is reiterated in Article 27 that stipulates states
will give “due recognition to Indigenous Peoples’ laws, traditions, customs
and land tenure systems” (United Nations 2008).
Aboriginal law, like all cultural protocol, is vast and complex (Figure 1),
and there is substantial literature outlining concepts of Aboriginal law gener-
ally (eg., Asch 2014; Borrows 2002; Jones 2017; Napoleon 2009; Secher
2014) and in relation to heritage (Battiste and Youngblood Henderson 2000;
RICHARD M. HUTCHINGS, MARINA LA SALLE
Bell and Napoleon 2008; Bell and Paterson 2008). As such, heritage crime
that violates Aboriginal law can be understood as a form of juridical crime.
However, because Aboriginal law is suppressed in most colonized con-
texts by state law (Figure 1) (Barker et al. 2016; Rollo 2014), heritage crime
may also be considered a deviant form of crime—crime that contravenes
accepted cultural norms, in this case Aboriginal cultural norms.
For many Indigenous groups, a foundational law is one of connection,
belonging, and stewardship of culture and land (eg., Berkes 2008; Ross
et al. 2011). UNDRIP also articulates this obligation in Article 26, noting
“Indigenous peoples have the right to the lands, territories and resources
which they have traditionally owned, occupied or otherwise used or
acquired.”
In North America, state-sanctioned archaeology/CRM permits the physi-
cal destruction of Indigenous heritage sites and cemeteries (Mapes 2009;
Stapp and Longenecker 2009). Indeed, it is significant that most archaeol-
ogy/CRM in North America affects Indigenous heritage sites; in some
places, laws and policies are designed to explicitly manage Indigenous her-
itage differently (Beaudoin 2016; Hutchings 2015, 2017). This results in,
for example, Indigenous burial grounds being classified as archaeological
sites worthy of scientific study rather than as cemeteries deserving of
respect and protection.
Many Indigenous nations have laws and protocols prohibiting this kind
of activity, particularly in the context of violating sacred sites and ancestral
remains (Echohawk and Echohawk 1993; Milholland 2008). Because
archaeologists commit these acts on a daily basis within a legal permitting
structure outlined and enforced by the state, archaeology is itself a state
heritage crime. It is both a violation of Aboriginal law and a crime of
deviance because it contravenes Indigenous values and cultural norms.
Compounded by the fact that most archaeologists managing Indigenous
heritage are not themselves Indigenous, the process constitutes heritage
racism. By instead privileging Aboriginal perspectives and connections to
place, the criminal nature of archaeology as state-sanctioned heritage crime
becomes clear.
Juridical/Deviance/Social Injury
To consider heritage crime committed by the state, one must step outside
of state laws, values, and policies and evaluate the behavior of the state
against other baselines. UNDRIP and Aboriginal law are two ways of doing
this. A third is to consider the impacts of state actions on Indigenous peo-
ples as criminal in the sense of violence causing social injury, which
includes social, psychological, spiritual, and emotional harms among others
Archaeology as State Heritage Crime
Figure 1. The state controls what is admissible as legal evidence and is defined to a
large degree by its ability to not just change the rule of law but disregard it entirely
(Agamben 2005). This issue of power and admissibility—and the pivotal role of sci-
ence in that relationship—is captured in Don Monet’s 1987 illustration “The Law vs.
Ayook: Written vs. Oral History,” which shows an Indigenous witness, Gitksan elder
Antgulilibix (Mary Johnson), singing her testimony, to which The Court responded:
“This is a trial, not a performance” (Monet and Wilson 1992:14–16). “Ayook” is the
Gitksan term for “law, custom, or precedent” (Napoleon 2009:xi). Reprinted with per-
mission of Don Monet
RICHARD M. HUTCHINGS, MARINA LA SALLE
(Steeves, this issue). In this light, the focus is not on intentions but conse-
quences (Michalowski 2010:21).
Writing about Aboriginal Australia, social injury caused by the loss of her-
itage landscapes is framed as solastalgia—an inconsolable loss of place and
belonging (Albrecht et al. 2007; Sutton et al. 2013). Similarly, Grove (2013)
coined the term heritocide to capture the profound loss experienced by descen-
dant communities when their cultural heritage is permanently destroyed. Such
profound loss leads to feelings of deprivation and isolation, where “family life
is disrupted, previous social controls are often lost, and many indicators of
social anomie, such as alcoholism, crime, delinquency, suicide, emotional dis-
orders, and despair may increase” (Bodley 2014:185–6; see also Alexander
2008). Indeed, the loss of belonging and connection (ie., dislocation, displace-
ment) has recently been cited for the alarming increase in suicides and suicide
attempts by Indigenous youth in North America and elsewhere (Aboriginal
Healing Foundation 2007; Lawson-Te Aho and Lui 2015).
The social harms inflicted through archaeology/CRM are situated in the
context of colonization, forced assimilation, and genocide (Cavanagh and
Veracine 2016), because archaeologists literally and figuratively are digging
up the past (McNiven and Russell 2005). Heritage crime is therefore personal
and emotional. Several case studies in recent years illustrate this point:
The dynamic of colonization that frames and defines the social impacts
of archaeology is central in considering state heritage crime. Indeed, the
World Archaeological Congress (WAC 2013) recently passed a resolution
declaring “It is unethical for Professional Archaeologists and academic
institutions to conduct professional archaeological work and excavations in
occupied areas possessed by force.” This resolution highlights the power
dynamic of state occupation that is established in colonized places like
Canada and the United States and calls into question the ethics of pursing
archaeological inquiry where occupied communities are not afforded free,
prior, informed consent.
Conclusion
This study set out to apply state and heritage crime theory to North Amer-
ican archaeology. We value the concept of heritage crime for its recogni-
tion of heritage as something that should be protected from harm. We also
consider crime an appropriate way to characterize actions against heritage,
and see the state as playing a central role in this dynamic.
As we have demonstrated in our application of these concepts, there are
a number of ways that state-sanctioned archaeology is criminal: it contra-
venes international treaties, violates Aboriginal law and custom, and causes
significant social harm to the communities connected to the heritage at
stake. In colonized contexts such as North America, such state heritage
crimes are committed on a daily basis and constitute violence against
Indigenous peoples. Yet, this should not surprise anyone: state heritage
crime has been part of the agenda of assimilation and genocide since colo-
nization (Barker et al. 2016; Battiste and Youngblood Henderson 2000;
Bodley 2014; McNiven and Russell 2005; Maybury-Lewis 2002; Smith 2004;
The Council of the Red Nation 2015).
Article 43 of UNDRIP states the rights affirmed therein “constitute the
minimum standards for the survival, dignity and well-being of the Indige-
nous peoples of the world.” The minimum standard, then, necessary for
the survival of Indigenous peoples is control over their heritage and lands in
RICHARD M. HUTCHINGS, MARINA LA SALLE
accordance with their laws and customs. Yet this continues to be blocked by
states like Canada, who argue Aboriginal laws are not really laws and
UNDRIP is not legally binding (eg., Hupacasath First Nation v. Canada
2013).
States are committing heritage crimes against the Indigenous peoples
whose lands they continue to occupy by force. However, proving heritage
crime has been committed by the state is difficult given that the state alone
controls what does and does not count as “heritage,” “crime,” and “evi-
dence,” and at any moment can change the rules (Agamben 2005). Com-
pounding this is the fact that heritage crime is often a slow process,
unfolding over decades and longer, making its harms difficult to witness
and document (Hutchings 2017). Regardless: the legality of heritage crime
in the eyes of the state does not make its impact on Indigenous communi-
ties any less criminal.
As such, we believe heritage crime studies would benefit from consider-
ing definitions of crime beyond juridical, which is inherently limiting as it
does not allow for “other” cultural laws and protocols (Williams 2012).
Deviance and social harm definitions, however, enable a victim-centered
approach (Rothe and Kauzlarich 2014a) where crime is evaluated by its
impact rather than its intent. State-as-perpetrator is an essential considera-
tion in order to fully explore what heritage crime is and who is capable of
committing it (Brosché et al. 2017; Kalman 2017).
Finally, we emphasize that heritage crime is not simply crime against
heritage, tangible, or intangible, but crime against people. Our hope is that
states and their agents will be held accountable for heritage crimes perpe-
trated against Indigenous peoples, in North America and beyond.
