A forgotten hilltop in the highlands of Guerrero in Mexico revealed something significant: a whole city uncovered through detailed surveying and systematic mapping. Researchers documented terraces that extended down the slopes and identified plazas used for community gatherings. Archaeologists also recorded perimeter walls, ceremonial platforms, and a ballcourt linked to political activity within the settlement. The combined evidence shows a well-organized center with long-term occupation. And anyone interested in ancient cities will find this discovery especially informative and historically valuable.

Beneath the hills of northern Spain lies a site that continues to reshape our picture of early human life. At Atapuerca’s Gran Dolina cave, researchers of IPHES-CERCA recently uncovered a tiny cervical vertebra—just over an inch long—that had been buried for nearly 850,000 years. It belonged to a child no older than four, and the sharp cut marks etched across its surface revealed something unsettling: the child had been deliberately decapitated. This discovery adds powerful confirmation to a long-debated idea that early cannibalism in Western Europe may have been both systematic and tied to survival pressures.

For decades, archaeologists searched the Valley of the Kings, chasing traces of forgotten pharaohs beneath Egypt’s endless sands. Now, after years of patient survey work, they’ve uncovered something remarkable—the tomb of Thutmose II. This discovery marks the first royal burial found since Tutankhamun’s in 1922, complete with painted ceilings and fragments that once surrounded a king. For history lovers and curious minds alike, this isn’t just another dig — it’s a rare glimpse into Egypt’s golden past.

This debate circles around Moses and Akhenaten as supporters highlight intriguing overlaps and skeptics push back, leaving a narrative shaped by shifting timelines and bold personalities.

There’s nothing quite like sitting at the gate, feeling that pre-flight optimism…only to hear the dreaded announcement: “This flight is canceled.” You barely have time to blink before your phone lights up with a rebooking for tomorrow. But what happens tonight—does the airline owe you a hotel?

Humans share a surprising amount of anatomy with the rest of the animal kingdom. We’ve got the same bones, joints, muscles, and basic internal plumbing. But there’s one tiny, everyday feature that no other species has—not even our evolutionary ancestors—and scientists still shrug when asked why it even exists. Meet the chin: evolution’s biggest unsolved facial mystery.
