Centuries of History Unearthed in Quest to Fix Toilet

Repairing a toilet in this old building in Lecce, Italy, Luciano Faggiano discovered a false floor. Beneath it were underground corridors, a Messapian tomb, a Roman granary, a Franciscan chapel, and many relics. I ask again: why can't something like this happen to me? I am always open to uncovering hidden mysteries. But I simply cannot find them.
