I understand that you're arguing it's legally their land to sell, but I'm not truly sure about that, once these sites are gone, they're gone forever.

Other people in Australia or the world may also object to losing incredibly interesting sites like this, so I'm not quite sure I agree with this black and white thinking to the problem.

Are you suggesting we take the land rights away from the Natives in order to... protect Native sovereignty?
Not the land but the sites, if money can erase your history you already have done something wrong in your country.

History has to be preserved no matter what.

There is value to humanity in preserving such ancient sites.
