Ancient Gladiator School Advancing technology is leading to more hidden and unexpected archaeological discoveries than ever before. In early 2014, a team of archaeologists led by Wolfgang Neubauer of the University of Vienna announced the discovery of a Roman gladiator school, or ludus, buried at the Carnuntum dig site located along the Danube River near the Austrian capital. 8. World War II Explosives In late 2013, a pair of construction workers in downtown Belgrade, Serbia discovered an unexploded World War II-era bomb 20 feet (6 meters) below ground, where it had spent roughly 70 years sitting beneath the city streets. The one-ton weapon was manufactured in Germany and contained over 1,360 pounds (around 620 kg) of explosives. 7. Mud Dragon In late 2016, researchers announced the discovery of the Mud Dragon (Tongtianlong limosus), a 66 to 72- million year old dinosaur uncovered by a farmer and a team of construction workers in southern Chinaâs Jiangxi province. 6. Medieval Well Plymouth, England resident Colin Steer and his wife, Vanessa had always wondered why their living room floor dipped in a specific spot beneath their sofa. They first noticed the indent shortly after moving into the home, when Mr. Steer was replacing the floor joists. 5. Mayan Mural While doing some home renovations in 2007, a family in Chajul, Guatemala discovered an ancient Mayan mural beneath layers of paint in their kitchen. Homeowner Lucas Asicona Ramirez noticed the centuries-old artwork after he began chipping away at plaster, eventually uncovering the entire multi-wall piece, which depicts figures wearing a combination of traditional Maya and Spanish garb. 4. Ground Zero Ship In July 2010, archaeologists monitoring excavations at Ground Zero -- the site of the World Trade Center tragedy in New York City -- discovered something quite unexpected underneath. A shipâs hull at the site, buried 22 feet (6.7 meters) underground. 3. Catherine De Mediciâs Hairpin A four-inch-long (10.16 cm) gold hairpin that once belonged to Queen Catherine de Medici turned up in a most unusual spot: a communal toilet at Fontainebleau Palace. Archaeologists discovered the hairpin while excavating the Henry IV courtyard at the former royal residence outside Paris. 2. Roman Villa In The U.K. In 2016, homeowner Luke Irwin was laying some electrical cables in his garden when he came upon something extraordinary! Digging in his barn in Wiltshire, U.K., he came across a Roman mosaic under the ground! He immediately suspected it had historical significance. 1. King Richard III For a long time, no one knew where King Richard III was buried. One day in 2012, an amateur researcher who was interested in finding King Richard III approached experts from the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) with the suspicion that the deceased royal was buried in a parking lot. #artifacts #unearthed #discoveries #amazing #mysterious #finds #underground #originsexplained #top10
