    Archaeologists in Egypt have announced a major discovery.
    More than 100 wooden coffins with well-preserved mummies, along with and some 40 gilded statues in a vast pharaonic necropolis south of the capital, Cairo.
    The discovery was displayed on Saturday in a makeshift exhibit at the feet of the famed Step Pyramid of Djoser at Saqqara, a site that was the cemetery for the ancient Egyptian capital of Memphis and is now a UNESCO world heritage site.
    It is home to more than a dozen pyramids and burial sites.

    I hope they do a proper analysis. King Tut's tomb was faked by the British. It was the tomb of a female ruler and there is evidence
    based on established tomb construction protocols that it could not have been for a male ruler. The British faked the hieroglyphs
    which have degraded unlike the real ones found in tombs. This is because they failed to properly "cure" the paint like the original
    tomb makers would have done. The various statuettes inside the alleged Tut tomb are clearly female ones. And no period
    Egyptian tomb maker would have thrown the furniture and personal possessions into some dump-style pile. It was ultra important
    for them to have everything arranged for the afterlife. And Tut's golden head sarcophagus was a patch job unlikely to have been
    an original.

    Manipulation of history is one of the routine tricks of western imperialists.

    Skeletal remains of 2 killed in Vesuvius eruption found in Pompeii

    Remains of two victims of the volcanic eruption of Vesuvius, which took place nearly 2,000 years ago, have been discovered in Pompeii

    The footage shows the remains of the victims, believed to be a man and his male servant. The remains were discovered in a side room of an underground corridor of a villa on the outskirts of the ancient city during excavations. Findings suggest the two victims had survived the initial fall of ash but were killed in a powerful volcanic explosion the next day

    A camp site where more than 20 Clovis tools have been recovered has been discovered on farmland in southwest Michigan.

    ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN—According to a statement released by the University of Michigan, a Clovis camp site has been discovered on farmland in southwest Michigan. It had been previously thought that the presence of glaciers in the region some 13,000 years ago made it uninhabitable beyond an occasional hunting trip in the ice-front environment. Independent researcher Thomas Talbot explored the farmer’s fields each spring after they had been plowed for more than ten years, and recovered nine pieces of Clovis points over that time. He contacted archaeologists Henry Wright and Brandon Nash of the University of Michigan, who investigated the area where Talbot found the points. Digging down some five feet, Nash and his colleagues uncovered two artifacts in an undisturbed layer below the plow zone. In all, the team has recovered more than 20 Clovis tools and hundreds of pieces of stone debris left behind by tool production. Nash thinks the camp may have been used for a short period by a small group of people who split from their main group for a season. Residue analysis could reveal what animals they hunted and what plants they processed, he added. To read about pre-Clovis peoples in the Americas, go to "America, in the Beginning."

    Aztec manuscript dating back 500 years details 12 earthquakes from the 15th and 16 centuries and is the first written evidence of seismic activity in the Americas

    A 500-year-old manuscript found in Mexico is the first written evidence of earthquakes in the Americas

    It was created by Aztecs who used a type of writing known Codex Telleriano-Remensis, which is a pre-Hispanic system of symbols and colors

    Earthquakes, called tlalollin in the Nahuatl language, are represented by two signs: ollin (movement) and tlalli (earth)

    Ollin is a character consisting of four helices and a central eye or circle and Tlalli includes of one or several layers filled with dots and different colors
    The pictograms show natural phenomenoms and social events that happened when an earthquake hit

    This allowed experts to date the 12 earthquakes from 1460 and 1542

    The images, however, also include natural phenomena and social events that occurred at the same time of an earthquake.

    One pictogram, for example, shows an earthquake that hit in 1507, which happened the same time as a solar eclipse.

    A temple was also destroyed during that year and 1,800 warriors drowned in a river that was likely in southern Mexico.

    Gothic Wielbark Culture Jewellery and Metal Items Found in Poland as Good as Their Contemporary Roman Counterparts.

    Map Legend:


    "Gothic" Wielbark Culture is in Dark Yellow. Ancient branch of the Ossetians known as the Goths, plus some remaining Przeworsk Culture inhabitants, and probably also some Slavs and Balts.

    "Burgundian/Vandalic" Przeworsk Culture is in Red. The red "stripes" are areas with especially high population density. Ancient Germanics, the so-called Kowalewko "Goths" are falsely misrepresented Burgundians or other Germanics. That is why those Kowalewko genetic samples look so Nordic, they have nothing to do with real Goths. Look where Kowalewko is on this map, it should be in the territory of the Przeworsk Culture.

    The ancient Balts are shown in Brown. Balts are actually very ancient Finno-Slavic/Neuri mongrels.

    https://edition.cnn.com/2023/02/23/world/france-cave-earliest-bow-arrow-use-outside-africa-scn/index.html

    The Persian word for Arrow is " Tir , or Felesh " the same as French or old European ( according to a linguist friend of mine) word " Tire , Fletch" Since  migration route of early humans , out of Africa , was through the dry Sea- bed , that is now where the Suez canal is , and this was possible during the low Sea levels of Ice ages . And also because migration from Africa through the ME , then spread in all directions , including Europe , then these Arrows are not the earliest example of such artefacts . Linguistics is far more resilient to change , than first thought . Some of the language groups in Finland , share the same root , as in Northern India . Yet the people look very different due to climatic adaptation .

    Must also add that the name of Rivers in Ukraine , starting with "  Dnie, " are derived from the old Persian " Danu, " or River . It could be that the River Dnieper , is old Persian name of " Danu- peer, " or old River ! Europeans are keen to emphasise their links to ancient Greece or Rome , but not Persia . They are afflicted by the modern idea of race and see Persians as non-whites ! Deny their heritage .

    Euro-centrism dominates the minds of Europeans including Russians. In the Russian language there are clear traces of the far east
    but there is no awareness of them. One such example is the Oriental word "chi" (land, power) which shows up in "chinovnik" (functionary),
    "otchizna" (homeland, "ot" translates as from), and "chernoye" (colour black).

    But it is also the case that the far east is influenced by more western regions. So Japanese has many features of Turkic (Turkic
    also has a strong influence on Russian, Ukrainian and other Slavic languages). There is a "controversial" Altai language group
    that spans Asia. It is "controversial" because western chauvinists don't like it for some reason.

    Archeology and anthropology are corrupted with petty political agendas and capricious whims of group-think research communities.
    Like the ludicrous attribution of megalithic structures to peoples who did not have the tools and knowledge to make them. The official
    history of humanity is not credible.

    Not really news but an example of BS logic. The word "fake" does not have the meaning that the narrator is imposing in this case.

    Reconstruction is not faking. In particular, using fragments of the original structure cannot be called fake in any possible way. Following
    the BS logic of this clown, all historical structures that have been buried in the ground as debris, should stay there. Supposedly for authenticity.
    This is autistic cringe and not a valid position.

    I have seen this "fakery" BS applied to Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Moscow and by implication any of the palaces rebuilt after WWII.
    This is a scumbag attempt to try to steal history from a country. The country is supposed to forget or relegate important structures to pieces of
    paper or electronic media instead of reconstructing them and maintaining their physical impact. I could care less for some abstract record,
    but do not mind visiting a fine cathedral or palace that has all of the features of the "original" (again, if it reuses the pieces of the original
    then it is partly original). Tourists do not visit libraries or their home computers.

    Tanais, Northernmost Colony of the Ancient Greeks.






    Today you can see its ruins in southern Russia. The video shows the museum that currently exists at the archaeological site of the ancient Greek colony of Tanais, which was part of the ancient Greek Bosporan Kingdom.



    Heyerdahl's intention was to prove the veracity of the account of Snorri Sturluson in the Ynglinga saga, written in the 13th century, about the origin of the Norse royal dynasties, and the pre-Christian Norse gods. Snorri provides a euhemeristic account, in which he describes the Norse god Odin and some other Norse gods, the Æsir, as having been real people who emigrated from the area around the river Don to Scandinavia at the time of the Roman expansion into their old homeland. In Scandinavia, Snorri writes, they so impressed the native population that they started worshipping them as gods.  Heyerdahl tried to seek the origins of the Æsir, following the route set out by Snorri Sturluson in the Ynglinga saga, from the Black Sea and the river Tanais (referred to by Snorri Sturluson by the names Tanaís and Tanakvísl[1]) via Saxon homelands in northern Germany, Odense on Fyn, Denmark to Old Sigtuna, ancient Sweden. When Heyerdahl died in 2002 the second season of excavations had just been finished. wrote:
