I wonder how many more lost works might be found in the so-called "Valley of the Golden Mummies"?

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. Thanks.

One of the real treasure troves--the famous library of Pliny the Elder in Pompei--is just now being examined thanks to new technology.

They found a lot of charred papyrus rolls in a villa which they think belonge to Pliny--but the condition made them unreadable. I understand they are working on them now with some kind of electronic (x-ray?) technology.

Wouldn't it be incredible if they found all the lost works of antiquity?
