Google Maps unearths Roman ruins

Italian computer programmer Luca Mori was using Google Maps to check out the area around his town of Sorbolo when he discovered an unusual shadow in the satellite images. "At first I thought it was a stain on the photograp," hhe said. "But when I zoomed in, I saw that there was something under the earth." That something is a Roman villa dating just before the birth of Christ.
