I have not seen this elsewhere on here (tried search) so apologies if it is a repost.
2 100 foot holes dug out of a river bed in Amsterdam during construction if a a Metro line under the river.
What they dug up was incredible, and also incredible is what they have done with a select number of the 700,000 items of interest they found.

An archive of they found from modern day to the 1400s here; https://belowthesurface.amsterdam/en/vondsten

Sorry if they links do not show up as links. I have forgotten the formatting rule to make them into hyperlinks.
