User ID: 65330616 Canada 04/16/2015 08:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Man Intent on Fixing Toilet Uncovers Centuries-Old Subterranean World Beneath his Basement An Italian man’s dream to open a modest restaurant became an archaeological obsession when he broke ground in order to repair a faulty toilet. The underground world filled with centuries of history he found beneath his building would dominate his life for more than a decade. In 2000, Luciano Faggiano faced plumbing and sewage issues on the property he had purchased in order to start a trattoria, a casual eating establishment, in Lecce, Italy. Figuring it would be a quick fix, he opted to find and repair the trouble himself, with the help of his two older sons.

Pre Christ era, streets even. What happened? Was this above ground several thousand years ago, then buried somehow through earthquakes and upheavals?

Quoting: Sungaze_At_Dawn Quoting: Anonymous Coward 140124 Lots of reasons. Sometimes houses made of mud are left to ruin/ abandoned, then collapse under the weather/time. Sometimes abandoned (but more durable) housing is abandoned and vegetation grows, building new layers of top soil and so on. Houses built in valleys can gather dirt from the slopes. Sometimes disasters can carry sand/dirt and cover the houses. Many other reasons. |
