History is all around us, and if you look hard enough, sometimes it can be right under your feet... in the basement. Here is a list of people who made unintentional 'archeological' discoveries and then found a way to put them to good use.
1. Our new apartment has a little milk door under the cabinets

2. This vintage space themed wallpaper found under 3 layers of other wallpaper in an old farm house

3. The house I'm staying in has kept its original well as a feature

4. I've been living in my house and I just noticed my back door handle is a spoon

5. There's a random chain embedded in the wall of my 1930s-era home

6. Uncovered at a Times Square construction site

7. Friend tore down his wall for renovations and found this mural on another wall behind it
