The Ancient Inhabitants of Easter Island were not the Cause of the Deforestation on the Island

A team of Spanish scientists has managed to reconstruct the past 3,000 years of history of Easter Island. Their new findings show that deforestation of the island occurred gradually, and not in all areas at the same time. Furthermore, they say that it was due to major climate changes and not overexploitation of resources by humans, as previously thought. The research suggests that deforestation ravaged Easter Island for more than a thousand years and influenced the collapse of its ancient civilization.

Unique Late Scythian Necropolis Tells of Demise and Transition

Russian archaeologists have spent the last several months thoroughly exploring an ancient Scythian necropolis discovered in 2018 in southwestern Crimea, near Sevastopol. This Scythian necropolis, which has been dubbed Kiel-Dere 1, has been dated to the Late Scythian period (approximately 200 BC to 375 AD). This was the time when the last remnants of the once mighty Scythian culture were struggling to survive on the Crimean peninsula, where they’d retreated after suffering defeats at the hands of their rivals in the east.

Healthy, Mostly Veg, Food Was Delivered to Bronze Age Mine Workers

Bronze Age food, plant and cereal remains, from a mining site in Austria dating to the 11th - 9th century BC have been studied and the scientists found no evidence of food processing.
