Archaeologists as individuals should not own the artifacts they find. The aim of Archaeology is to learn from and preserve the artifacts which they recover for everyone. Objects in publicly owned museums do not belong to the archaeologists, but the public. Specific laws governing who owns recovered antiquities vary from place to place, but archaeology as a discipline is not about ownership of artifacts.

What are the advantages of having artifacts?
Artifacts can provide valuable insights into past civilizations, cultures, and historical events. They can also help archaeologists and historians study and piece together information about the past. Additionally, artifacts can serve as tangible connections to our ancestors, helping us better understand our own heritage and identity.
Why do archaeologists today find evidence of the ancient Aztec capital right in the center of Mexico City?
The ancient Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan was located on an island in Lake Texcoco, where modern-day Mexico City now stands. When the Spanish conquistadors arrived in the 16th century, they destroyed much of the city and built Mexico City on top of the ruins, using the stones from the Aztec temples and buildings for their own construction. This is why archaeologists find evidence of the ancient Aztec capital in the center of Mexico City today.
Why do archaeologists carry out an excavation?
To discover the culture of the people who once lived in an area. By unearthing the trash, plates, missing articles of a person, family, village or people, archaologists can peice together the thei culture with hypotheses about how and why they did things. Learning cultures is important for globalization and for understanding ones own culture in contrast.
Do archaeologists buy their tools?

In local, amateur groups people often buy a lot more themselves.
What artifacts have you found about Cleopatra?
There are very few artifacts connected to Cleopatra. The only two things she built were the temple to Julius Caesar and her own tomb and both have been destroyed. The completion of a maternity house, begun by her father, at a temple to Hathor and perhaps a boat rest stop along the Nile are the only other things attributed to her. If they ever find her tomb, there's a possibility that there will be more things connected to her buried with her, if the tomb has not fallen victim to tomb raiders.
Do archaeologists sell their work?
In general, archaeologists do not sell the artifacts they discover. They consider this "treasure hunting" and not a proper academic practice. In addition, ancient artifacts are increasingly claimed as government property in their country of origin, so the discoverer has no legal right to sell them. When exploring such sites, archaeologists are typically working on a government sponsored project run by a museum or University. They are essentially selling their time and expertise. Even in situations where artifacts are not claimed by the government, legitimate archaeologists work to ensure that all important artifacts are given to Universities and/or Museums that will further research the artifacts and make them available for public display. (Think of Indiana Jones, who was sponsored by his University and gave them his "finds." Contrast this with his rival, Belloc, who was strictly after the money.) Note that fossils - such as dinosaur fossils - are the province of Paleontologists rather than Archaeologists. Fossils are generally treated like minerals such as gold; if you own the property, the material you find there belongs to you. Governments typically do not interfere with this because fossils and minerals have no cultural significance.
