 Aleesa Andresen

Archaeologist in Italy, have uncovered more than two dozen preserved bronzed statues that dating back to ancient Roman times.  These statues were discovered in San Casino den Bagni, in northern Rome.  These statues were covered in gold, silver, and bronze coins, and the hot muddy water helped preserve them. The archeologists were surprised they were made out of bronze and not terracotta. So far, 24 large statues and several smaller statues have been uncovered. The statues are going to a restoration laboratory but eventually will be displayed in a new museum.
