d100 Burried Things

Not everything you dig up on a treasure map is going to be treasure. Sometimes erosion or a flood might partly uncover something. Or you might find suspicious mound of different coloured earth in field or dungeon or near that burned out old ruin.

More like archeology than a standard treasure table but the last items could be a mini dungeon or entry to a lost level.

Some things buried are intended to be collected later. Others are part of a ritual or buried in a disaster.
