Watching the second season of HBO’s “Game of Thrones” prequel series “House of the Dragon” has been a lot like running into an old acquaintance from high school at a bar.

You vaguely recognize them from afar. Perhaps they sat in the back during Ms. Carp’s English Lit class. Or was it Chemistry? One thing is certain: You have no idea what their name is.

This is how I feel, two years on, about 99% of the Targaryen family. After casually devouring Season 1 as though it was not delivery, but DiGiorno, I still don’t know Aemond from Aegon.

It is extremely clever in the way it sets up its pieces like on a chessboard. Nothing, as brief as it may be, seems to be there by mistake or oversight.

Archaeologists conducting excavations at the site of a church have unearthed a marble shrine containing a relic that they believe may be tied to Moses receiving the Ten Commandments.

The shrine contained a 1,500-year-old ivory box adorned with Christian motifs, according to an Innsbruck University press release.

The item was discovered by archaeologists from Innsbruck University in southern Austria under an altar inside a chapel at the summit of Burgbichl, a small hill, in the municipality of Irschen.  

Since 2016, archaeologists from the University of Innsbruck have been carrying out excavations in Irschen, which is a part of the Carinthian Drava Valley.

A swords-and-sandals epic that’s cast in a Game of Thrones mold—and strives to whet audiences’ appetites for Ridley Scott’s upcoming Gladiator II—Those About to Die delivers intrigue, deception, and coliseum carnage with an enthusiasm that’s offset by its derivativeness.Though nominally based on Daniel P. Mannix’s 1958 book of the same name, George R.R. Martin appears to be the true authorial inspiration for showrunner Robert Rodat and director Roland Emmerich’s 10-part Peacock drama (out July 18), what with its mix of sex, violence, treachery, and murder—as well as its treatment of its most famous star, whose participation turns out to be...
