Construction of the Parthenon began in 447 BC when the Athenian Empire of ancient Greece was at the peak of its power. It was completed in 438 BC.By Will Ferguson, WSU News When it comes to the great civilizations of human history, the pen really might have been mightier than the sword. That’s according to a new paper in Nature Communications that shows the ability to store and process information was as critical to the growth of early human societies as it is today. “There’s a fundamental relationship that exists between the way in which societies process information and how…

We met the famed Berlin-based tattoo artist (actual name: David Rinklin) and had him explain the secrets and procedures of his trademark and frightening black ink. How does it happen that one day David Rinklin turns into Neon Judas and shocks the tattoo world with his disturbing and creepy Black-n-Grey works? I started using that name around 9 years ago I think. I was posting paintings and artworks under another pseudonym on Myspace before and I decided to change the overall look and appearance so I did. I don’t think I would have chosen to publish tattoos under an “artist…

Until it was demolished and left for dead in 50 B.C. by a volcanic eruption, Cuicuilco was an important ancient site on the southern shore of Lake Texcoco in the southeastern Valley of Mexico. Today, an entire ancient city is buried beneath the ashes, but one structure survived –  the Cuicuilco circular pyramid. What is left of the remains of Cuicuilco city is buried and preserved in the lava flow. But one pyramid, a circular pyramid showing designs of an agricultural system, was preserved, with the lava flow flowing around it. Image credit: Siebe, 2000 Cuicuilco’s circular pyramid was an imposing…

For those who adore intricate nail art, stiletto nails are quite the rage! Thanks to celebs like Lady GaGa, Fergie and Rihanna for bringing back this popular style from the 1950’s and 60’s. More and more women are opting for this bold new look! As far as nail art goes, stiletto style nails make quite a statement. They are basically oval shaped, but pointed at the top rather than rounded. They tend to be quite long and are therefore almost always fake nails. However, due to the fact that they are longer, they provide more options for detailed and intricate…

The lion is seen planning an assault on a herd of zebras and wildebeest that is grazing in the field in the video. The lions’ plan initially succeeded when they actively separated the herbivores into two groups. While the other lions continued to pursue the large group, one lion broke off the pack, chased the small group running in the opposite direction and caught a young, immature zebra. The lion quickly grabbed its prey by the neck, knocking it back to the ground. What seemed to be an easy meal, suddenly appeared another zebra, apparently the mother of the restrained…

Internet a fait des vagues avec l’histoire virale de squelettes mystérieux découverts dans le sous-sol de l’un des orphelinats de Londres. En démolissant une maison en 2006 pour faire place à un nouveau projet immobilier, une équipe d’ouvriers a découvert des tonnes de caisses en bois scellées au sous-sol. Les ouvriers du bâtiment se sont réjouis, pensant avoir découvert un trésor caché, mais lorsqu’ils ont ouvert les cratères, ils ont découvert les momies de nombreux animaux inhabituels, dont beaucoup ressemblaient à des fées et des nains de la mythologie britannique populaire. Le propriétaire de la maison était Thomas Theodor Merrylin,…

Les archéologues ont mis au jour une sculpture en bois à Chan Chan, la capitale du royaume Chimú. La culture Chimú est apparue vers 850-900 après JC, après avoir succédé à la culture Moche et contrôlé une zone de 1 000 kilomètres de côtes de Piura au nord à Paramonga au sud. Le Royaume était centré sur Chan Chan, une grande ville en adobe qui couvrait une superficie de 4942 acres, faisant du site l’une des plus grandes villes précolombiennes d’Amérique du Sud. Le nom du site est probablement dérivé du Quingnam « Jiang » ou « Chang » qui…

Mientras deambulaba por el prado, una manada de ñus fue perseguida repentinamente por 3 jaguares. Ante la feroz persecución de los depredadores hambrientos, un ñu de la manada de repente giró la cabeza “hacia la muerte”. En este punto, el antílope cae en una posición de “1 contra 3”. A pesar de estar en una posición más débil, el ñu aún luchó con tenacidad. Incluso cuando la presa devolvió el ataque, 3 jaguares tuvieron que rendirse. El jaguar africano es conocido como un súper depredador. Su velocidad puede alcanzar los 120 km/h. Al detectar presas, los jaguares pueden acelerar de 0 a 95 km/h…

The study of extrasolar planets has led to some astounding discoveries, many of which have defied the expectations of astronomers and challenged our notions about the forms planetary systems can take. For example, the discovery of Jupiter-sized planets that orbit closely to their stars (“Hot Jupiters”) defied what astronomers suspected about gas giants. Previously, the general consensus was that gas giants form beyond the “Frost Line” – the boundary beyond which volatile elements (like water) freeze solid – and remain there for the rest of their lives. Interestingly, this will happen when our Sun leaves its main sequence phase and…

Venus is our closest planetary neighbour, and above its oppressive surface, in the clouds, there is a mystery. In the planet’s clouds, scientists have discovered traces of phosphine, a substance that may be produced by living organisms. In Venus’ hazy atmosphere, life may exist, as scientists have long assumed. The surface of Venus reaches temperatures of more than 800 degrees Fahrenheit, making it unfriendly. No probe sent to the planet has managed to survive for more than a few hours. But the planet’s atmosphere, which is made up of thick layers of sulfuric acid clouds, might offer a special environment…

The Dead Sea Scrolls and Eastern papyri are being analyzed using cutting-edge methods, which are exposing fascinating truths about daily life in the ancient world. Around 2,100 years ago, a Judaean scribe deftly swirled a stylus to dab the final strokes of black ink onto a piece of parchment. The so-called “Dead Sea Scrolls” are a set of ancient Jewish/Biblical documents discovered on the northwest shore of the Dead Sea between 1946 and 1956. Most are in Israel today, but this (and others) are in Jordan since borders have shifted over the years. Written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, mostly…
