  Forty-four-year-old Bridget Driscoll, who lives in Croydon, Surrey, is out for her usual evening walk. In 1897, on a bright Tuesday in August, on the seventeenth day of the month, she decided to extend her short walk to London. Mixed with the murmurs of the daughter who accompanied her, the gallivanting journey of her friend Elizabeth's contemporary gossip may have been tiring. Sometimes that may not be the case. However, she had decided to return. That's why she clings to the Dolphin Terrace near the Crystal Palace, holding her daughters' hands. She was stunned by the strange sound that came out of nowhere. It had a mechanical abnormality that sounded like an inhuman hoot. She was one of the most ignorant Londoners, still unfamiliar with the sound of a car horn, and stared at it for a moment. The metal masked mechanical killer took the space with his permission to push his own mass onto the small surface of a delicate body.            Arthur Ja...

  A few years ago the world was shaken by some unexpected news, news about Atlantis suddenly it turned out that the mysterious ancient state had been located in the Sahara. but isn't Atlantis supposed to have sunk in the water not in the sand, it turns out that not everything is so  simple to find out where the truth is in this story I conducted my own investigation.   before moving on to Atlantis let's first deal with the Sahara the desert is located on the African continent it's considered the largest hot desert in the world, and the third largest of them all after the deserts of the Arctic and Antarctica. the area of the Sahara is 9 million 200,000 square kilometres or 3 million 550,000 square miles, of course there are enough sites on such a huge territory but the most amazing and unique place is the eye of the Sahara. The eye of the Sahara also known as the Richat structure is located in west central Mauritania, and it does look like an eye it's kind of a collap...

  In 2013 scientists discovered a very unusual find in the Spanish cave of Sima de los huesos or pit of the bones what they found were human remains what was so unusual about this was primarily its location, after all the cave is located at a depth of 43 feet or 13 meters it's too deep to be inhabited by humans there were also no signs that the cave was used as a burial place after some time it became clear this find was evidence of the very first murder in human  history. at least the first case known to science to date what guided the first murderer  on earth and what made the circumstances of this crime unusually strange at the dawn of scientific research there were two opposing points of view on the nature of man on the one hand was Thomas Hobbes who suggested that the nature of Homo sapiens is extremely violent and  the entire evolutionary development of mankind is a war of all against all, on the other hand there was a Jean Jacques Rousseau who believed that h...

  Over the decades, there have been many theories as to where the first people to get to the  New World originated, and now, thanks to DNA, we likely have a definitive answer.  We humans have a couple million years behind us, and it's taken us nearly that entire time  to spread across the planet. Anthropologists know for a fact humans evolved in what is  now Ethiopia and Somalia. Eventually modern humans stood up and started walking out of  Africa, but not long afterward, things get a bit blurry.  By following the fossil record, humans moved from Eastern Africa into South Africa and  onto the Arabian Peninsula. Over thousands of years, modern Homo Sapiens migrated throughout  Europe and Asia, supplanting or interbreeding with populations of Neanderthals and Homo- erectus. Eventually, modern humans spread to the New World and populated there too,  but how humans made it over here -- when the map makes it look SO. FAR. has been a puzzle...

In 1922, Egyptology Howard Carter was frustrated. Months ago he had sent a telegraph to his financier, Lord Carnarvon, informing him of another disappointing season of digging in the harsh Egyptian desert with no luck. Lord Carnarvon's reply back had been simple: you have one more season of funding to make a significant find. Carter thus returned to a spot he had previously scouted but not dug at in the Valley of Kings, a line of ancient huts mostly covered over with sand. Yet whatever secrets lay hidden under the Egyptian sands remained that way, and now time- and money- was running out. If he didn't make a major discovery in the next week or two, his funding and career both would be over. In the work site a young Egyptian water boy is hurrying along bringing drinking water to the thirsty workers when suddenly, he trips on a stone and dislodges it slightly. Curious, he pries the stone loose and his eyes widen when he spies a set of stairs cut into the bedrock. he r ushed to Ca...
