I just heard on the radio this morning that the excavators for the expanded London Underground are finding incredible artifacts while digging the new tunnels. Fascinating stuff!

The article reports that they found skeletons and coins. Why is it hard to believe that human remains and coins were found under a city where millions of people have lived and died? I think these findings are highly credible.

This series is excellent and covers a lot of this stuff.
