The Discovery of ‘The Tomb of Osiris’ in Egypt: January 1st, 1898

The year is 1898 and we’re at Umm El Qa’ab in Abydos where Emile Amélineau is leading an important excavation. At this time, knowledge on the history and culture of Ancient Egypt is limited but growing, with so many important sites still yet to be excavated.

But an incredible find seemingly spoke for itself and French archaeologist Emile Amélineau believed he had discovered the true tomb of Osiris. He published his findings in 1899, in a book titled: “The Tomb of Osiris” and it seemed he had the physical evidence to back up his claims.

But did he? What happened to this exciting discovery and why is it not more known about today? Watch this video to learn about the fascinating story of discovery.

Historic New Archaeological Discovery - Homo Naledi Was Highly Intelligent

Archaeologists Lee Berger said in an interview that it is "possible" that humans and Homo Naledi interacted. Homo Naledi, a new species of Homo fossil that was discovered in South Africa in 2014, is currently the most mysterious Homo fossil yet discovered.

In this video, we'll explore the possible implications of Berger's statement and ask whether it is even possible for humans and Homo Naledi to have interacted. We'll also ask whether Berger's findings change our understanding of the evolution of Homo.

If you're wondering whether or not humans and Homo Naledi interacted, then this is the video for you. Lee Berger, discusses the possibility in this fascinating video. He explains how the discovery of Homo Naledi could change our understanding of human evolution. So be sure to watch and decide for yourself!

Experts Found Evidence That Suggests The Tomb Of Jesus Christ Is Much Older Than Anybody Believed

The New Testament and Christian tradition tell us that Jesus of Nazareth was crucified by the Romans in the year 30 or 33, some 20 centuries ago. According to the Gospel of Luke, his body was put in a tomb that was guarded by a Roman soldier. Jesus was then resurrected and ascended to heaven. What has intrigued the Christians ever since is the question of exactly where Christ’s tomb is located.

Archaeological Discoveries: 30,000 year old freshwater and seashells discovered in Spain

In Malaga’s Cueva de Ardales, up to 13 freshwater and marine shells that were carefully transformed by humans between 25,000 and 30,000 years ago have been discovered.

According to a study published in the environmental scientific journal Environmental Archaeology, the first Homo sapiens wore necklaces and earrings made from seashells from the Bay of Malaga.

This incredible discovery was the result of research conducted in collaboration with the Neanderthal Museum of Colonia, the University of Colonia, and the Cueva de Ardales, according to a press release from the University of Cadiz.

This archaeological enclave is now once more among the most significant in the Iberian Peninsula thanks to the discovery. When it comes to the Paleolithic era, body adornments are a subject of great interest to the scientific community.

According to the scientific article, the shells were “carefully transformed” by humans of the genus Homo sapiens into ornaments and pendants to decorate the bodies of these groups that occupied the Ardales Cave.

Historians Unearthed Evidence That Could Prove The Existence Of The Real King Arthur

The dramatic ruins of Tintagel Castle sit atop craggy hills with waves crashing against steep cliffs. Dating from the 13th century, the fortress is located in the far south-west of England in the county of Cornwall. It’s a fascinating remnant from the Middle Ages. But it also looms large in the British imagination as the dramatic site of the legendary King Arthur’s life and times, the monarch who presided over the Knights of the Round Table.

Was There An Advanced Civilization Before Humans? The Silurian Hypothesis

We are always there talking about extra worlds, aliens, and how civilizations might be sitting safely on extrasolar planets, protected by the enormous distances involved.

And it is as if we take it for granted that nearly five billion years of geological and biological evolution of the Earth could have resulted in only one dominant form of intelligence: that of our species.

We, Homo sapiens, as the apex of evolution, the final, unique, and unrepeatable product of a time course all aimed at bringing us to the dominance of this planet...

But... what if this is not really the case? What if before us ... long before ... there was a way and time for evolutionary roulette to have birthed another terrestrial civilization?

Would it really be far-fetched to think so?

After all, complex life has existed for more than 500 million years. How sure are we that humans are the first intelligent species to have evolved on this planet?

Might there not have been - I don't know - a Cambrian civilization of intelligent trilobites, building underwater cities powered by hydrothermal vents? Or big-brained Cretaceous theropods capable of using tools and language?

This is not as absurd as it sounds. On the geological time scale, we inhabited this planet for only an instant, and industrial civilization existed for only a fraction of that instant. And if humans became extinct tomorrow, the relics of our society would not last long.

But why these questions? And who are the Silurians?

What Was Earth Like in The Early Years of Human Life? | Pre-Historic Humans Documentary

Each of us likely has their own ideas and interpretations of what the world might have looked like at the dawn of humanity, but some of them might look a bit like this: dramatic landscapes, mostly void of human structures; great beasts that roamed the wilds; nomadic bands of early humans settling down across the globe. This was in fact the reality and surely, it was a sight to behold, wherever you were in the world. As Homo sapiens began to spread out across the world towards the end of the Pleistocene Epoch, the world was in the clutches of the Ice Age, a time synonymous with frigid temperatures, megafaunal animals and what the general public generally percieve as 'cavemen'.

In today's video, we will be taking a whistle stop tour of the globe during the early years of humanity - specifically the years when Homo sapiens began to spread out across the continents. We will be focussing on a time roughly situated between twenty thousand and sixty thousand years ago, when members of our own species had begun to arrive in each and every corner of the world's continents. We will look at a general overview of what each continent looked like, whilst meeting some of the strange and often deadly residents that had evolved there before us.

Sit back and relax as we take you on a tour across the world in the early years of humankind.

Roman Baths and Public Buildings still in use today

What Happened to the Vikings After Battling The Native Americans

As quickly as they came, they left. Stories of Vikings in North America tell of mysterious lands and foreign tribes known only as Skraelings. It was 1,000 AD. For nearly 12,000 years, the Americas had been cut off from Eurasia. Civilizations developed on each side without knowledge that the other existed. Nearly 500 years before Columbus sailed the ocean blue, the Vikings journeyed to the Americas from Greenland and Iceland, possibly multiple times. And it wasn’t very peaceful.

Today, we’re examining the Viking fingerprints in North America, their clashes with the Native Americans, and why they disappeared almost as soon as they arrived.

According to one rumor, a bizarre billionaire constructed it in anticipation of the zombie apocalypse. Others have asserted that the home is the property of a hermit or the well-known Icelandic singer Bjork. Some people on social media have even asserted that the mansion doesn't actually exist and that the pictures were Photoshopped.

So who put the house there in the first place? © @h0dur Instagram

The original occupants of the island of Ellidaey recount the history of the lonelyest residence in the entire globe.

The Ellidaey Hunting Association constructed the house so they could hunt the puffins because flocks of the birds live on the island.

The world's most lonely house isn't as lonely as we first believed, it seems. There remains still the original house where scientists and bird watchers stayed and kept their equipment. The original was replaced with the white cottage.
