According to a new study, our early human ancestors used some of the oldest stone tools ever found to butcher hippos on the shores of Africa’s Lake Victoria, some 2.9-million-years-ago. The study, published in the journal Science, presents what is likely the oldest innovation in stone-age technology, otherwise known as the Oldowan toolkit, in addition to what is possibly the oldest evidence of hominins consuming large fauna. The toolkit was discovered at an archaeological site called Nyayanga on the Homa Peninsula in western Kenya, where excavations found the toolkit along with a pair of molars belonging to Paranthropus, a genus…

A CT scan has revealed that a 2,300-year-old Ancient Egyptian mummy has 49 amulets placed within the body.

Up cactus that crawls through the desert. Photo: Pamla J. Eiseberg Commonly known as the creeping devil, Stepocereυs erυca is one of the most distinctive cacti. Why? BυePO, you know, it crawls on the ground. The creeping devil lies on the ground and grows at one end while the other end feeds it, with the succession of several roots developing in the lower part of the stem. As the years pass, the cactus travels slowly, taking stems that branch and take root towards the growing shoots, while the older portions of the stem die off and decay. The poor man…

The Roman Empire stretched from its territorial holdings across the Mediterranean Sea, Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia, but the Empire had trading links that connected far beyond the empire’s borders. Early Indo-Roman relations in the area known as “India” are poorly documented, with the only contemporary accounts prior to Roman contact occurring during the Indian campaign of Alexander the Great from 327 BC until 325 BC. Alexander’s campaign is briefly recorded by the naval commander Nearchus, which is preserved in the “Anabasis of Alexander”, a 2nd century document written by Arrian of Nicomedia during the reign of Hadrian.

It is because of this that fans have predicted numerous plot developments in the series. Reasonably, many may assume that Oda has the entire series figured out, and perhaps he does. It goes…

Pompeii was a Roman city, located in the modern commune of Pompeii near Naples, in the Campania region of Italy. Pompeii, along with the Roman town of Herculaneum, were buried under 4 to 6 metres of volcanic ash and pumice during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.
