In an ancient country with booming development, it's inevitable that relics will be unearthed.
In Japan they have a simple, elegant, and holistic approach to dealing with this: they find a convenient nearby location, often a street corner or a piece of a pocket park, and pile up whatever they find. This adds a nice visual touch to the neighborhood, and provides objects of veneration for the locals.
Here's a gang of them near my friend Simeon's house in Tokyo's Bunkyo-ku.
