During the time that Stott was on the Acquisitions Committee, the committee's role was described as follows: "to decide in individual cases whether to accept donations of archaeological materials. The Committee is committed to the premise that all artifacts offered for donation or sale to the Museum have ultimately been looted from archaeological sites. As such activity is not condoned, the Museum will accept archaeological collections but cannot recognize any monetary value of the material in the form of tax receipts or purchase as this only fuels the market for antiquities. The Acquisitions Committee establishes the acquisition priorities for MoA as well as collections security and standards." (taken from finding aid for Stott fonds written in 1999)
