Piles of trash discarded by ancient people are a rich source of artifacts for archaeologists. I unearthed garbage dumps that advanced our understanding of prehistoric societies. On the island of Crete I found ancient trash that increased our knowledge about the Minoan people. And I recently uncovered informative Celtic rubbish.

'This is the BEST well we've dug!!'

"Yes, it's nice my husband has hoarded a fortune, but it would be nicer if he would let me spend some of it though..."

Hey, I think I found something. Heavy metal detector.

I.O.U. one pot of gold.

"Did you check the little patch of grass by the swing set?"

"Actually, I used them as collateral for a loan."

Unbeknownst to most, dogs are actually greedy bastards searching for gold,

'We grow our food, have solar energy, use bikes instead of car...now if we could only stop buying knickknacks!'
