ANTIQUITY invited a member of the Research Assessment panel for archaeology in British universities to write about the exercise. He declined; as the matter was sub judice, he must be silent. Perhaps that phrase defines the colleague as judge, rather than as peer-reviewer.Fortunately, Barry Cunliffe, chairman of the archaeology review panel (and of ANTIQUITY'S trustees), made public his views in his Presidential Anniversary Address to the Society of Antiquaries of April 1995 -before the current assessment got under way. We reprint it with permission. Professor Cunliffe starts with a brisk reminder-overlooked by our coverage in the March ANTIQUITY-of the real benefits of asking just what researchers do for their money in the supposedly tranquil and desirable échelons of our universities
