Archaeologists in Spain have discovered a possible hidden Roman Empire from over 2,000 years ago.

A team of researchers from the University of Cádiz started exploring an area of the Sierra de Cádiz region last year hoping to just find a few remnants of ancient life there.

Instead, they were stunned to come across 57 Roman Empire-era sites — which they believe could all be connected, based on trade and communication routes, according to the Independent.

Archaeological discoveries often bring the past to life in vivid and unexpected ways. While conducting an excavation in Jerusalem, archaeologists uncovered a monumental structure that not only enriches our understanding of ancient architecture, but also ties closely to biblical narratives. This significant find sheds light on the topographical and historical aspects of one of the oldest cities in history: the City of David.

We can confidently say that the computer is a modern-day invention. However, certain findings may prove that is unlikely. A 2000-year-old hunk of metal with gears on it was found near the island of Antikythera in Greece 120 years ago and left people questioning everything we know about computers. The piece of metal was anything but ordinary. It is now believed to be the oldest known computer on the planet and was found among various other things in a shipwreck near the island, per BBC.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

History never ceases to amaze us and there is much out there that is still unknown. There were several generations that lived before us and many are yet to come into existence. So, when archaeologists and other experts discover something new about the old, it’s always a fascinating journey of understanding what really went down there. In 2000, French archaeologist and head of the European Institute of Maritime Archaeology, Franck Goddio, led a team that successfully located the ancient city of Thonis-Heracleion, which was Egypt’s only port on the Mediterranean coast about 2,500 years ago.

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.

Meghan Markle's venture into the lifestyle space has not been met with universal acclaim, particularly from one well-known figure: Martha Stewart. Earlier this year, in March, Meghan unveiled her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. The brand immediately drew comparisons to other celebrity wellness empires, particularly that of culinary icon Martha Stewart. However, these comparisons have reportedly struck a nerve with Stewart, who finds them both "irritating and insulting."

Daisy-May Hudson became a documentary maker when her family was suddenly made homeless. The result, Half Way (2015) launched her career, and her feature debut explores similar territory. Posy Sterling stars as Molly, who comes out of prison to discover the children she’d left with her mother have been put into care. With no fixed abode, she can’t get them back – but she can’t find a place to live, either. Her situation is borderline Kafkaesque, but the tone is realism as Molly desperately tries to reunite with her two children and find a place they can all live.

Who is Anubis? Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god, is often depicted with a jackal's head and a human body. He played a crucial role in Egyptian mythology, especially in the afterlife. Anubis was the protector of graves and the guide of souls to the afterlife. His duties included overseeing the mummification process and weighing the hearts of the deceased against the feather of Ma'at, the goddess of truth. This determined whether a soul was worthy of entering the afterlife. Anubis's significance in Egyptian culture cannot be overstated, as he ensured the dead received proper rites and a fair judgment.

Tracing their ancestral home to the picture-perfect Channel Islands, the Chumash likely descend from some of the Americas' earliest settlers. When I was in elementary school, my class read a book called Island of the Blue Dolphins about a young Indigenous girl who was stranded on an island off the coast of California. The novel is based on the true story of the "Lone Woman of San Nicolas", who supposedly lived alone on San Nicolas Island for 18 years during the mid-19th Century, after the rest of her native American tribe was relocated to the mainland by missionaries.
