New Study Finds Dinosaur Fossils Did Not Inspire the Mythological Griffin

New Study Finds Dinosaur Fossils Did Not Inspire the Mythological Griffin For centuries, scientists thought they knew where the griffin legend came from. A new study takes a closer look at the data and folklore’s influence on science. A popular and widely-promoted claim that dinosaur fossils inspired the legend of the griffin, the mythological creature with a raptorial bird head and wings on a lion body, has been challenged in a new study. The Griffin Origin Story The specific link between dinosaur fossils and griffin mythology was proposed over 30 years ago in a series of papers and books written by folklorist Adrienne Mayor. These started with the 1989 Cryptozoology paper entitled ‘Paleocryptozoology: a call for collaboration between classicists and cryptozoologists’, and was cemented in the seminal 2000 book ‘The First Fossil Hunters.’ The idea became a staple of books, documentaries and museum exhibits. It suggests that an early horned dinosaur of Mongolia and China, Protoceratops, was discovered by ancient nomads prospecting for gold in Central Asia. Tales of Protoceratops bones then travelled southwest on trade routes to inspire, or at least influence, stories and art of the griffin. Read moreSection: NewsGeneralMyths & LegendsRead Later

The House of Agilolfings, Bavaria’s Powerful Overlords

The House of Agilolfings is a significant, though often overshadowed, dynasty in the history of early medieval Europe. Originating in the region that would later become Bavaria, this noble lineage played a pivotal role in shaping the political, cultural, and social landscape of Central Europe during the early Middle Ages. From their obscure beginnings to their eventual integration into the larger web of European nobility, the Agilolfings were instrumental in the establishment and consolidation of territorial control that would influence the development of medieval states. The Franks, Charlemagne, and the Forging of Europe Faith or Economy? Why Pagan Religions Lost Their Position in Europe The House of Agilolfings, the Rulers of Bavaria The origins of the Agilolfings are shrouded in the mists of early medieval history. The dynasty likely emerged in the mid-6th century AD, though the details of its early genealogical history are largely based on legend and limited historical documentation. The Agilolfings are believed to have descended from a noble family within the Merovingian court, the ruling dynasty of the Frankish kingdom. This connection to the Merovingians provided them with a degree of legitimacy and influence that facilitated their rise to power. Read moreSection: NewsGeneralHistoryFamous PeopleRead Later

A Glimpse into the Life as a Pirate Captain (Video)

The transition to Pirate Captain often stemmed from a background in privateering or ownership of a ship. Wealthy backers would commission vessels, appointing experienced leaders like Henry Jennings or those with military ranks like Stede Bonnet, who preferred the title of "Major" from his militia days. The title "Captain" wasn't universal; some, like Henry Morgan's former soldier Charles Swan, commanded as merchant captains turned pirates. The Intricate World of Pirates, Privateers, Buccaneers, and Corsairs 10 Of The Most Famous Pirates, Male And Female, Who Ruled The Seas! Democratic election was another avenue to captaincy, often following successful mutinies or vacancies. Candidates vied for support, possibly with speeches or informal ballots, though manipulation was common. The newly elected Captain would then appoint lieutenants, including a Quartermaster to balance power. Once in command, a Pirate Captain's duties were multifaceted. They managed ship operations, mediated disputes, and represented the crew in negotiations. Despite limited documentation, historical insights suggest a blend of administrative tasks and interpersonal challenges, from maintaining morale to strategizing collective decisions.

Study Revises History of Brazilian Coast Occupation From 2,000 Years Ago

A brilliant new study from Brazil has revised the historical narrative of human occupation along Brazil’s coast, offering new insights into the ancient sambaqui builders at the Galheta IV archaeological site in Laguna, Santa Catarina. The study offers new dating for the site, estimating it was active between 1,300 and 500 years ago, rather than the previously thought 1,170 to 900 years ago. Contrary to previous beliefs, the sambaqui builders at the Galheta IV archaeological site in Laguna, Santa Catarina, were not replaced by the ancestors of the Southern Jê. The study has been published in PLoS ONE by researchers from the University of São Paulo’s Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology (MAE-USP), supported by The São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP). The research has been conducted in collaboration with scientists from the United States, Belgium, France, and various Brazilian states.

Knock, Knock: Who are the Mysterious Cornwall Knockers?

Cornwall's tin mines, with their labyrinthine tunnels and subterranean chambers, have long been the backdrop to stories of supernatural beings known as the Knockers. These elusive spirits, central to Cornish folklore, played an integral role in the lives of the miners who toiled deep beneath the Earth's surface. The Knockers, with their distinctive sounds and mysterious behavior, became an inseparable part of the mining culture in Cornwall, shaping the beliefs and practices of those who sought fortune in the mineral-rich depths. The Evocative Scenery of Cornwall, An Ancient Landscape (Video) Prince William Inherits Ancient Duchy of Cornwall Estate Worth $1.2billion! The Realm of the Knockers According to Cornish folklore, the Knockers were small, thin-limbed entities with large, hooked noses, reminiscent of mythical dwarves or elves. These spirits were believed to inhabit the darkest, deepest parts of the mines, far from the reach of daylight and human activity. Their presence was both feared and revered, as they were thought to be guardians of the mines' secrets, capable of both aiding and hindering the miners.

A Bronze Bust of Roman Emperor Caligula Rediscovered

Long believed to have been lost, a bronze bust of the Roman Emperor, Caligula, has been rediscovered. The bust vanished nearly two centuries ago and concludes a decade-long quest by the curator at Strawberry Hill, Dr. Silvia Davoli. Originally gifted to the renowned writer, aesthete, and Whig politician, Horace Walpole, by the British envoy to Italy, Horace Mann, the bust was last seen by the public during the “Great Sale” of 1842. In which most of Walpole’s collection was dispersed into private hands. According to Mann, the sculpture was excavated from the ruins of Herculaneum. The Madness of Caligula: Rome’s Cruelest Emperor? The Search Is On For Caligula’s Orgy Boats Where His Twisted Fantasies May Have Been Played Out   Herculaneum was one of the two Roman towns to be buried by pumice and ash from the Mount Vesuvius eruption in 79 AD; the second being Pompeii. It is located in the modern region of Campania. Tradition states that the city was rediscovered in 1709, during the drilling of a well.

Monumental Long Barrow Burial Discovered in the Czech Republic

Recent archaeological research on the D35 Plotiště-Sadová highway in the Czech Republic has unveiled an extraordinary long barrow, shedding light on the funerary practices of the Eneolithic period. Located at the border of the villages of Dlouhé Dvory and Lípa, this monumental structure provides a unique glimpse into the social hierarchies and burial customs of the Funnel-Beaker culture, which thrived between 3800 and 3350 BC. Rescue Excavation Reveals Funnel-Beaker Culture Burial Site The long barrow, a significant funerary monument, was identified by an elongated trapezoidal gutter typical of such structures. Spanning an impressive 190 meters (623 feet) in length, it ranks among the longest barrows in Central Europe. Although traces of a palisade, often found in similar structures, were absent, the barrow's dimensions and orientation—15.1 meters (49.5 feet) wide in a north-east-south-west direction—are noteworthy. Intensive agricultural activities over the centuries have erased the above-ground evidence of the mound, which is unsurprising given the region's farming history. However, the excavated entrance, preserved as a posthole and gutter, along with the gutter structure, provides critical insights into the barrow's original form and construction.
