Yamashita Archaeological Cave in Naha, Japan

August 29, 2024

In 1962, a local woman discovered a deposit of fossilized deer bones in a small cave in the town of Yamashita, located south of Mount Ōno in Naha. She informed the Ryukyu government, and, upon closer examination, traces of human tools were found on some of the bones. Immediately, an archaeological dig was conducted, discovering pottery from the Pleistocene strata estimated to be about 32,000 years old. During another dig in 1968, the fossilized remains of an eight-year-old human...

The Real Unreal in Grapevine, Texas

August 28, 2024

The fourth Meow Wolf installation, the Real Unreal, has layers. On the surface, it is a colorful but unrevealing storefront in the Grapevine Mills shopping mall that invites shoppers to “come find yourselfs” . Its next lower stratum is a gift shop and café with an extremely peculiar floor plan and strange beverages like Gender Fluid for sale. And the next layer below that is a beautiful summer evening at a quiet suburban home… one slowly leaching into an...

Paradiso in Amsterdam, Netherlands

August 28, 2024

Tucked away at the southern end of Amsterdam’s central canal ring, just a stone’s throw from the Rijksmuseum and bustling Leidseplein, this Neo-Gothic building will draw your attention if not by its architecture, then by the size of the queue at the entrance that forms here almost every evening. Built in the late 19th century as a meeting place for a religious organization known as the Free Congregation, this place radically changed its purpose in the 1960s. First simply...

Moon Time Is a Thing Now—Here's Why...

August 28, 2024

On the Moon, there is no normal. There is no wind, no rain, no erosion. Nothing flies overhead, and nothing green strains toward the sky. There are no daily rhythms like those we experience on Earth—no chirping of crickets, no sunset breeze. Time itself seems to stop, or at least proceed differently. Even shadows shift on a far different timeline. A lunar day and a lunar night each last two Earth weeks. What’s more, seconds tick by slightly faster...

Cabedelo's Bus-Boats in Cabedelo, Brazil

August 28, 2024

If you are into boats, this is a deep dive into Paraíba’s power for surreal experiences. In the city of Cabedelo, you will encounter something the locals call a lancha, which translates to speedboat. The friendly locals can help you find the spot: a wooden pier suspended over the river, adorned with rusty bikes attached to both sides. This is your opportunity to ride a floating 1980s bus that has been ingeniously transformed into a ferry boat, luckily even with the...

Statue of Lucien B. Maxwell in Cimarron,...

August 28, 2024

Western movies always tell tales of landlords with vast tracts of mountains and ranges. Few of these fictional characters can compare with the real-life holding of Lucien Bonaparte Maxwell, who once owned more than 2 million acres of land in northeast New Mexico. Maxwell came from humble beginnings in Illinois, growing up in a fur trading family and eventually making his way west. He married the daughter of rancher Charles Beaubien and soon bought all of the land owned...

South Pavilion Graffiti in Badrshein, Egypt

August 28, 2024

The necropolis of Saqqara is home to the Pyramid of Djoser, the oldest pyramid in the world. Interestingly, its identification is said to have been helped by tourist graffiti left in the complex over 3,000 years ago. The graffiti can be found inside the Pavilion of the South, an unassuming structure drawing few visitors. It’s a dummy building that contains nothing but a narrow passage inside, built purely as a symbol of the pharaoh’s authority, perhaps modeled after a...

Floris Perfumery in London, England

August 28, 2024

For nearly 250 years, the Floris family has been operating out of the same storefront, located in the fashionable district of Piccadilly in the heart of London. In fact, both the eighth and ninth generations continue to ship fragrances and toiletries around the globe. Not only are they eagerly desired by members of the royal family, they are sought after by politicians and celebrities alike. In 1730, Juan Famenias Floris arrived in England from his native island of Menorca, (one of...

Shakespeare, Kings, and Commoners All Loved These...

August 28, 2024

When 34-year-old Robert Devereux, the 2nd Earl of Essex and ill-fated leader of a failed rebellion against Queen Elizabeth I, laid his head on the executioner’s block in 1601, the prospect of inspiring a hit ballad was likely the furthest thing from his mind. Yet his grisly demise sparked one of the most enduring songs of the 17th century. Titled “A lamentable Dittie composed upon the death of Robert Lord Devereux late Earle of Essex, who was beheaded in...

The Strange Allure of Blue Food

August 26, 2024

“When people in different parts of the world are asked to rank their favorite colors, without any context,” says Charles Spence, an experimental psychologist at Oxford University, “it always comes out that blues and greens are preferred.” But what happens when people are asked about their favorite food colors? According to Spence, blue and green “drop right down” the list. At first, this might seem counterintuitive. Spence points out that our love for blue and green may be due...

This story was originally published on The Conversation. It appears here under a Creative Commons license. New results from the first archaeological fieldwork conducted in space show the International Space Station is a rich cultural landscape where crew create their own “gravity” to replace Earth’s, and adapt module spaces to suit their needs.
