From our new podcast, the Disappearing Spoon:
The so-called "Peking Man" fossils are some of the first ancient human remains discovered in mainland Asia. So when they disappeared during World War II, it was called one of the worst disasters in the history of archaeology. Now some archeologists claim to have tracked them down. The only problem is they're underneath a parking lot.
