Archaeologists unearth child's 600-year-old shoe
Archaeologists unearthed a child's leather shoe during excavations at England's town of Newton Abbot, which they claim dates back to the 1400s. A number of other artefacts, including wooden barrels and a millstone, have also been unearthed at the site. The artefacts did not rot reportedly due to waterlogged clay soil which prevented organic materials like leather from being oxidised.
