Vatican Discoveries

Our favorite crazy auntie in the attic leads us to this news about a recent archeological discovery in Vatican City. As noted in the article, the entire mediterranean basin is one enormous archeology site, which makes any kind of large-scale urban renewal challenging to say the least. It becomes a real pain, because many countries simply don't have a place to put all the stuff people find. The stories about families reburying classic statues they dug out of their own basement simply to avoid the red tape has more than a grain of truth to it.
