Lousy reporting.
"Illegal excavation" has so many nuances attached it's almost a useless description of what led to the discovery.

With Turkey’s lurch to the side of Islamo radical beleifs, you have to wonder how long all these tombs and free standing statues which are part of Turkey’s Western heritage from ancient times will survive.

I can’t help thinking about the Bhudda statues in Afghanistan that were destroyed.
