What's Left to be Discovered

Overview

Many people think that nearly everything has already been excavated, so what we haven’t yet found will probably never be found, unless it was hidden away in some secret passage or cave. But this isn’t the case at all! First of all, rarely is anything significant discovered in a random, isolated cave—the Dead Sea Scrolls, Nahal Mishmar Treasure, and the Lascaux Paintings are great exceptions. However, archaeological sites all over the world are still waiting to be discovered, and many of those that have been found sit there unexplored.
