When Kimberly Morris started tracing her family roots, stretching back to her ancestors' enslavement in the 1800s, she didn't expect to uncover an incredible piece of history. Her genealogy journey led her to a decaying, one-room schoolhouse hidden in the woods of Virginia's Caroline County, a place overtaken by nature since her father's childhood.

Editor's Note: This article was originally published on February 10, 2022. It has since been updated. Faced with the reality of being slaves in a foreign land, Igbo people chose death as they walked into the ocean and drowned while still chained to each other. It was one of the first documented acts of rebellion from the people of Africa against white slave traders. It was the year 1803 and 75 West Africans, with a majority of them being Igbo, were sold for $100 each to John Couper and Thomas Spalding. Originating from Nigeria, the Igbo people were renowned for their industriousness, independence, and pride in their work. John Couper and Thomas Spalding "bought" the Igbo people with the intention of taking them to work on plantations in St. Simons Island, Georgia, in the U.S. They were packed onto a slave ship but as the ship neared Georgia, Igbo people rebelled and took over the ship, killing the captain and some of the crew. The ship ran aground in Dunbar Creek, off St. Simons Island, according to Mother Jones.

Markings on a stone pillar found at the 12,000-year-old archaeological site of Göbekli Tepe in southern Turkey have been newly decoded by researchers, who believe they may document a tremendous comet strike that led to a major shift in human civilization. The site, a temple-like complex some seven thousand years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza, contains intricate carvings that archaeologists think may collectively form the world’s oldest calendar, as well as those that record the Taurid meteor stream that gave rise to a twenty-seven-day-long rain of comet fragments that plunged the Earth into a roughly 1,200-year-long ice age in 10850 BCE. The comet strike is believed to have wiped out many species of large animals, and to have spurred the lifestyle change from hunting and gathering to farming that led to the birth of civilization in the Fertile Crescent of West Asia.
