Cats have fascinated people for centuries. Archaeologists in Peru were remodeling a view point on the Nazca Lines UNESCO site. They found a faded cat figure during this remodeling process. The geoglyph at first was difficult to spot because of its steep slope.
The Ministry of Culture in Peru said they thought the outline of the cat was over 2,000 years. Its style of art indicates it may have been created during Late Paracas Period. The cat outline is 121 feet in length, with lines between 12 to 16 inches wide.

People tend to do some work on their new home when they move in. Some renovations may require removing the floorboards. This can reveal a hidden treasure. A lucky Alberta homeowner found an extensive collection of film posters under his feet while repairing his house.
Among the pile were posters for The Dance of Life and Red Headed Woman. The posters were near-perfect, even though they had been hidden under floorboards. Heritage Auctions estimated the total value of these posters at 600,000.
