The world was through a difficult period in the 1960s. Everyone was concerned about the danger of nuclear war as America and Russia were at odds. Some even constructed bunkers and fallout shelters in their backyards. A Woodland Hills, California couple found one of these shelters in their new residence in 2013. Even though they were aware of the bunker when they purchased the house, they initially believed it to be only a hole in the ground. They found a subterranean time capsule filled with pristine vintage supplies, such as food, water, beds, and more, when they examined the fallout shelter.

27. Farmer Finds 4,500-year-old Statuette of Ancient Goddess
Location: Gaza Strip, Palestine
Year Discovered: 2022
Est. Value: Unknown
A farmer in the Gaza Strip discovered a limestone statue of the ancient Canaanite goddess Anat while tending to his land. Canaanite mythology described the 4,500-year-old goddess as the embodiment of beauty, love, and warfare. The statue’s “inscription of a snake” on its head, according to the farmer Nidal Abu Eid, told NBC News, made him realize it was significant right once. The snake was said to have been worn by the goddess as a crown of strength and invisibility. Some historians claim that because Athena is frequently shown with snakes, Anat was the inspiration for the Grecian goddess of war, Athena.
