Greek archaeologists have uncovered an underground grave with a skeleton in a large tomb in Amphipolis, Greece. The burial site is believed to be the largest ever discovered in Greece and was estimated to have been built in the 4th century BC during the reign of Alexander the Great. According to the Ministry of Culture, the almost intact skeleton belonged to a distinguished public figure due to the amount of marble that was used to build the elaborate tomb. Archaeologists have been digging out the mysterious tomb since August and have found iron and copper nails from the coffin along with decorative bone and glass ornaments that adorned it.

An ancient Anglo-Saxon gold and silver treasure worth $5.5 million was discovered in a farmer's field in England. Archaeologists used modern scanning and microscopy technology to study the 3,500 pieces without damaging them. The treasure provided new insights into the artistic craftsmanship and travels of the mysterious Anglo-Saxons who ruled England between the 5th and 11th centuries AD. It showed they traded with other lands and were skilled metalworkers, challenging past views of the Anglo-Saxon period as unadvanced. However, many questions remain about the treasure's origins and purpose.

Beringia Humans were here Copyright © canada.com .docx
Beringia: Humans were here
Copyright © canada.com
Beringia is thought by a handful of renegade scientists to be a prehistoric
homeland for aboriginal people who later spread across the Americas and
the key to one of archeology's greatest Holy Grails - figuring out how humans
first got to this continent. This July, Jacques Cinq-Mars, a renowned
archeologist living in Longueuil, is heading to Beringia - a vast territory that
once spanned the Yukon, Alaska and Siberia - in hopes of resolving a
controversy he unleashed nearly 20 years ago when he chanced upon a
curious-looking cave in the Yukon's Keele Mountain Range, perched on a
ridge high above the Bluefish River.Here, at a site known as the Bluefish
Caves,Cinq-Mars's team discovered something that would turn archeology on
its ear and has fuelled debate ever since - a chipped mammoth bone that appeared to have been fashioned into a
small harpoon point.
Radiocarbon dating showed the bone to be 28,000 years old. The find stunned archeologists who had long presumed
the first people to enter the Americas did so 13,000 years ago via a land bridge from Siberia after the end of the last
Ice Age.Until that point, routes from Alaska down into the Americas were blocked off by glaciers up to four kilometres
thick, which would have cut off any possibility of migration for thousands of years. But scientists have unearthed a
growing number of ancient human sites across the continent that date back much more than 13,000 years. How did
those people get here? No one knows for sure. Cinq-Mars, a retired former curator at the Canadian Museum of
Civilization, believes the answers lie in the lost land of Beringia. Named after 18th-century Danish explorer Vitus
Bering, this territory emerged from under the sea when advancing glaciers locked up seawater and caused ocean
levels to fall 120 metres. The 1,000-kilometre-wide land bridge that joined the two continents was so arid it remained
a glacier-free oasis of grassland steppes that teemed with life at the height of the Ice Age. People here lived
alongside giant and outlandish animals - beavers the size of today's bears, fearsome carnivorous bears that would
have dwarfed today's grizzlies, sloths as big as oxen, mastodons, lions and woolly rhinos and camels. Cinq-Mars,
who has been exploring Beringia since his student days in 1966, believes the region was not only away-po......

sought refuge during the Ice Age.
If he is right, his finds at the Bluefish Caves and even older mammoth bone flakes found by another Canadian team
at nearby Beringian sites mean people were already trundling around in the Americas long before the Ice Age.
(Radiocarbon dating puts the age of the mammoth bone flakes found by the Archeological Survey of Canada team at
40,000 years old.) Nearly 20 years after the initial mammoth ...
Who Really Discovered America?
While Christopher Columbus is often credited as the discoverer of America, there is evidence that others reached the Americas before him, including the Vikings, Japanese, and Irish monk Saint Brendan. The Vikings may have established a settlement in present-day Newfoundland or Nova Scotia as early as 1000 AD. Some pottery fragments found in Ecuador date to 5000 years ago and suggest the Japanese may have sailed across the Pacific. An Irish text describes a voyage by Saint Brendan in the 6th century that may have reached Newfoundland. Ultimately, the Native Americans who crossed the Bering Strait over 10,000 years ago were likely the first to discover America.

- 10. Old tomb in Greece Greek archaeologists have uncovered an underground grave with a skeleton in a tomb in the northern city of Amphipolis. The burial site is believed to be the largest ever discovered in Greece. The tomb is estimated to have been built in the fourth century BC around the reign of the great warrior Alexander the Great of the Macedonian Kingdom. According to a statement by the Ministry of Culture, the almost intact skeleton belonged to a "distinguished public figure", due to the amount of marble that was used to build the tomb. Greeks have been following with bated breath, as each of the chambers has been being dug out, with speculation running wild over who it could belong to.
- 11. Experts say it could belong to a friend or family member of Alexander the Great, or someone from his military or naval forces, due to its elaborate detail. Archaeologists have been digging out the mysterious tomb, since August. In the recent discovery, iron and copper nails of the coffin, and decorative bone and glass ornaments that adorned it were also found. Previously discovered items include two winged sphinxes at the entrance and a colourful detailed floor mosaic, depicting the mythological tale of the abduction of Persephone.In ancient times, Amphipolis was a significant naval base and Alexander and his forces passed through.
