Vikings are the focus of countless movies, TV shows, video games, sports teams, and comic books today—but that doesn’t mean we always get them right. From the myths surrounding their horned helmets to their not-so-fiery burial customs, here are some common misconceptions about Vikings, adapted from an episode of Misconceptions on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MoA36H9KtUw 1. Misconception: Vikings Wore Horned Helmets. In 1876, German theatergoers were abuzz about a hot new ticket in town.

On Saturday, Egyptian authorities confirmed they had uncovered a trove of 30 ancient wooden coffins in Luxor, with a number concealing mummies perfectly intact. Mostafa Waziri, secretary-general of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, told reporters the discovery was the country’s largest in more than a century.

Neapolis was a major Roman city on the coast of Tunisia, established as a trade port by the Greeks of Cyrene in the fifth century before it became a port when the Roman Empire conquered North Africa. Now, a Tunisian city known as Nabeul stands where the ancient metropolis once was, built on top of most of the remains, making them inaccessible and likely mostly destroyed. However, researcher Mounir Fantar was convinced a large portion of Neapolis was permanently submerged in the ocean when a tsunami hit the city on July 21, 365AD, meaning the Mediterranean could be hiding an underwater city. It was revealed during Channel 5’s “Ancient Mysteries”…

It’s now been almost a year since The Illuminerdi reported that a film titled The Mutants was in development at Marvel Studios.

There’s one Marvel Cinematic Universe character who keeps getting cut from every potential appearance, despite being a major Thor character. The Thor franchise has largely revolved around the relationship between Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Loki (Tom Hiddleston), and their mixed feelings towards their parents.

It is a blessing because we get more of what we love than we could have ever hoped for, but this can be a curse because sometimes too much of a good thing is detrimental. It is true that some of these properties have…

If you thought Stone Agers simply let their cavity-riddled teeth rot right out of their mouths, think again. In 2017, researchers published a study suggesting that Neolithic dentistry may have had a thing or two in common with today’s procedures. The cavities in two 13,000-year-old teeth appeared to have had decayed tissue scraped out with a stone or other sharp object; and the holes were then filled with bitumen, a natural (and waterproof) tar. In general, we tend to underestimate our prehistoric ancestors—and on this episode of Misconceptions, host Justin Dodd is revealing exactly in what ways. While Stone Age foodies weren’t indulging in all our…

“Cut marks on bones are often interpreted in archaeology as an indication of the utilization of meat,” said lead author Dr. Ivo Verheijen, a researcher with the Senckenberg Centre for Human Evolution and Paleoenvironment at the University of Tübingen and the Forschungsmuseum Schöningen. “But there is hardly any meat to be recovered from hand and foot bones. In this case, we can attribute such fine and precise cut marks to the careful stripping of the skin.” “A bear’s winter coat consists of both long outer hairs that form an airy protective layer and short, dense hairs that provide particularly…

The 3,000-year-old scarab was discovered by Gilad Stern of the IAA Educational Center during a school field tour in Azor, about 7 km southeast of Tel Aviv, Israel. “We were wandering around when I saw something that looked like a small toy on the ground,” Stern said. “An inner voice said to me: ‘Pick it up and turn it over.’ I was astonished: it was a scarab with an incised scene, the dream of every amateur archaeologist. The pupils were excited.” The scarab was designed in the shape of the common dung beetle. The ancient Egyptians saw the act of the…
