Probably not. The National Park Service manages these places for this and future generations. Also, archaeological techniques are constantly improving, making a good argument to preserve sites until new and better technology develops. Also, these places are sacred to modern Pueblo peoples are their concerns about further excavation need to be respected. Besides, excavations are very expensive, requiring funds from non-governmental sources.
