What did you find during excavation?

I asked my dig crew the same question. I guess they uncovered someone's mumified pet monkey at another site. Mine was pretty uneventful.
So far - just the original water lines from a well. We knew they would be there, as the parts of the decayed well pump were still next to the old shed.

Sewer line to septic tank here. Fixed in an hour or two.
No monkey skeletons or the like.

main sewer line overlapped one corner of our pool. We ended up building the pool over the line by creating a bench
That the original owners dug a 5' hole to sink an above ground pool, and the "investors" that picked it up and sold it to us saw the hole as a free dumpster for construction debris including carpet and paint which they covered with a few inches of soil and sod. 
Thankfully our PB was sympathetic because he said it was the worst he had ever seen in 30 years in the business and only made us pay for the extra dumpster, they loaded it for free for us and we were able to get our dumpster fees reimbursed without too many legal threats.

Really have to watch those "flipped" houses. Paint and new "cheap" carpet can cover a multitude of sins. And apparently so can 2" of top soil.
Yeah, no kidding. Thankfully what we fell in love with was the building layout and not the "finishes"
