Rivers have a knack for carrying away all sorts of objects, leading to some truly unusual discoveries. Archaeologists often scour riverbanks, unearthing everything from ancient pottery and weapons to submerged shipwrecks, offering fascinating insights into bygone eras. Rivers occasionally yield lost jewelry, with lucky finders stumbling upon diamond rings, gold coins, and other precious gems glinting in the mud. From vintage toys to unexpected oddities like prosthetic limbs and even a typewriter, rivers occasionally reveal a whimsical assortment of forgotten items. There are also some more extravagant discoveries, like whole ships!
