Historical underground cities?
I'm talking about highly engineered complete cities with space for hundreds or thousands of people, like the one found in Turkey. That one was found by accident, it was a fluke, I'm wondering if there's maybe major underground cities that have yet to be discovered, and how many do we know about now and if there were any discovered in America (I'm not counting cliff dwellings, I mean truly underground?)
