A digger who found an 1,800-year-old artifact said, 'I had a real shock as the digger bucket rolled over what I thought was a big stone to reveal a face.'
A 'pale object' that looked like a large, bland stone was unearthed by chance during a routine construction project in the United Kingdom. Then the digger, Greg Crawley, saw a face. At the time, he had no idea that he had stumbled upon an 1,800-year-old artifact that dates to the first or second century. After careful study and cleaning, experts said Crawley found the head of an ancient Roman sculpture. Two weeks later, a marble bust was found at the same construction site.
The estate displays a vast collection of Italian Old Master paintings, among other historic works of art, and acts as a venue for special events, such as weddings, and operates a number of hotels.
