The Archaeology Thread

[Anomalocaris]

during the construction of the large hadron collider,  the world’s largest particle collider,  workers excavated underneath several historic Swiss towns near Geneva and map out what their street plans had been during roman and pre-roman period.    The were surprised to find that in each case the modern street plans of the center of these towns almost exactly reflect the original street plan they had already adopted when they were preliterate early iron age settlements.
