They actually found an ancient Roman ship not 100 meters from my home
(some 2000 years old I think). Took them more than a year to dig it out.
Just before they shipped it on a big truck we could go in and have a
look (about 2 months ago). There it was lying about 10 meters below the
surface in a clean bed of grey mud.
Very impressive and weird to think what else is underneath the surface,
perhaps even under my own home...
