About
Archaeology or archeology[a] is the study of human activity through the recovery and analysis of material culture. The archaeological record consists of artifacts, architecture, biofacts or ecofacts, sites, and cultural landscapes.
Archaeology has various goals, which range from understanding culture history to reconstructing past lifeways to documenting and explaining changes in human societies through time.
The discipline involves surveying, excavation, and eventually analysis of data collected, to learn more about the past. In broad scope, archaeology relies on cross-disciplinary research. Read more...

The article is directly quoting the Polish archaeologists who discovered the cite.
Are you seriously insinuating that Poland isn't one of the the two most Nazi hating countries on the planet?
Let me guess, you've never set foot in Poland.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-right_politics_in_Poland
Never been to Poland, but it's no real surprise that every Polish person I've ever met has been politically somewhere between Trump-level fascist and neonazi. And I've met quite a few Poles, given I live in Chicago.
There are many reasons the ADL is considered an unreliable source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Defamation_League#Reception_and_controversies and Wikipedia even banned them as a source on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict all together.
Poland had some the highest per-capita death rate of any country in WWII. They had some of the fiercest resistance to the Nazis of any nation on the planet. The Warsaw Uprising was one of the few resistance movements that was actually effective enough to piss off the Nazis. The remaining pieces of the Ghetto Walls still serve as a Holocaust memorial that spans large chunks of Warsaw.
A bunch of Polish Americans may or may not be Nazis. I have no idea. The Poles in Poland are some of the un-Naziest people you can find on the planet.

Hexbearer no like because soviets also invaded Poland for some reason? Queue history lesson claiming the soviets had a non aggression pact with the Nazis and spit roasted Poland so they could ramp up their wartime industry to fight the Nazis
