Secret under the old latrine

Falling out, the place where the old, crumbling latrine had remained for 130 years was the ' gold mine ' for archaeologists - who did not manage the stench of the rock, digging tirelessly and finally finding many mysterious ' legacies ' left in the 19th century.

After 130 years of serving the needs of ' solving the sadness ' of all men and women, young and old, the outdated toilet area (actually only 2 separate apartments) is located in the city bus parking lot. Ventura, California, USA has recently been put into planning to break down to build a new complex of state-managed garage.

The site suddenly had the appearance of archaeologists when suddenly many strange ancient relics began to appear, including a shotgun, a knife, a bottle of whiskey, a set of dentures, two skull heads and a scissors - specialized for shearing sheep.

'It is very likely that this is a place of evidence of a murder,' said excavation project director John Foster. 'It looks like two guard dogs were beheaded. Then he violently buries his head and pulls it to the ground, believing that no one will ever go to investigate this latrine . '

Working with obsolete ' toilets ' also has its own discomfort.

'The deeper the odor is, the more unpleasant it is.' Said archaeologist Marisa Solorzano. 'However, that doesn't stop us. This area is a gold mine for archaeologists'.

Previously, the 3.5-square-meter plot of land - equivalent to the area of ​​two football fields - once had the presence of Indians, Spanish missionaries, Mexican soldiers and American settlers. It was also this place in the late 1800s that rose to Ventura's court, prison and the first hospital, excluding a brothel nearby.

Items found under the 130-year-old toilet in Ventura and some pictures and materials about them were quickly brought into Ventura Museum for display.
