  5. 1,200-Year-Old Viking Ship Burial Found in Supposedly Empty Mound

    A large Viking burial mound found on the island of Karmøy off Norway’s western coast was long thought to be empty. Excavations that opened the Salhushaugen mound in 1906 were launched in the belief that it held a buried Viking ship, but only a few unremarkable artifacts were found at that time. But a new survey by archaeologists who used ground-penetrating radar to search more deeply revealed that the mound actually does hold the remains of a huge ancient vessel.

  13. Shock Discovery - Humans First Interbred with Neanderthals 250,000 Years Ago

    A groundbreaking study has shattered the conventional timeline of human-Neanderthal interactions. The prevailing belief was that Homo sapiens ancestors first mingled with Neanderthals in Eurasia after a massive exodus from Africa about 75,000 years ago. However, the startling revelations from this research expose a far more ancient narrative, one that traces back over 250,000 years, suggesting that early human DNA flowed into Neanderthals long before our anticipated migrations.

    Swiss scientists believe that only decades remain before areas that have been covered with ice for thousands of years melt away. The melting of the long-frozen snow and ice in the Swiss Alps, and elsewhere around the world, has already yielded numerous ancient artifacts, from hunting tools to goat-skin leggings, shoes, and Otzi the Iceman, the remains of a man who lived more than 5,000 years ago; and they are turning up with more and more frequency as the speed of melting increases.
