We love April rain and snow, but it’s turned our road into one long mud wallow. We have to chain up all fours on the trucks to get in and out these days. And, truly, we hope it continues. More rain, please, Katchinas!
5,000 year old burials found in India.
- Apr 19, 2015 9:28 am
Harappan, or Indus civilization, arose in Pakistan and northwestern India around 2,500 B.C. This is a time when the great cities of Mohenjo-daro and Harrappa were urban centers. They were artists, builders, and writers. Archaeologists first discovered this civilization in the early 20th century when square stamp seals were found on the banks of the Ravi River in Pakistan. The writing on the seals was unknown at the time, so in 1920 Sir John Marshall and Rai Bahadur Daya Ram Sahni began excavations.

Warming permafrost in Greenland and archaeology
- Apr 18, 2015 7:02 am
Temperature rises are one of the greatest threats to archaeological sites that have been frozen in permafrost for millennia. As the permafrost melts, dormant bacteria become active and start slowly eating away organic deposits. In this case, the remains come from three cultures in Greenland, The Saqqaq, Dorset and Thule peoples. The Dorset play an important role in PEOPLE OF THE SONGTRAIL. They are Asson’s people.

Bison charged photographer… Well, yeah.
- Apr 16, 2015 2:23 pm
Honestly, there are times when we read articles like this and just shake our heads. The photographer obviously got too close, which threatened this bull and the members of the herd he cares about, and he instinctively responded by charging the predator–which is how they see humans. Know what would have happened to this bull if he’d injured the stupid photographer? Right. The bull would be dead now for protecting the people he loves. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3030109/Charge-heart-stopping-moment-angry-bison-decided-assert-dominance-hurtle-photographer.html

What rights do individuals have to artifacts stolen from their families by the Nazis seventy years ago? We think those looted artworks belong to the descendants of the victims.
