Roman Ruins Discovered Via Google Earth

An Italian software programmer and BLOGGER was viewing some satellite photos on Google Earth, when he noticed strange oval and rectangular shapes in the ground that, he reasoned, must be of HUMAN ORIGIN. He called some archaeologists, who started digging, and confirmed that he was looking at yet undiscovered Roman ruins. Think about it: It's possible to discover ancient ruins while sitting on your ass in front of a PC.
