Medieval manuscript that could “redefine history of thirteenth and fourteenth century music in Bohemia” discovered in Prague’s Klementinum. “The discovery was made by Dominique Gatté, our colleague from Strasbourg in France, who started to follow all of the new digitalised medieval manuscripts and their musical parts.
He made this discovery thanks to his systematic work and let us know about it through our international cooperation on this topic. “It was bound into a book from the 1430s, which is a copy of an earlier work written by Petrus de Crescentiis, it is about agronomic systems and how a man is supposed to manage his agricultural estate.” I understand that binding old parchment into new manuscripts was quite common back then? “Yes, that is correct. It was a common practice.

Divers discover world's largest underwater cave system filled with Mayan mysteries. Mexican scientists discovered the world’s largest flooded cave system that extends an amazing 216 miles (347 km) and is filled with artifacts.
The maze of caves is a major archaeological find that promises to shed light on the mysteries of the Mayan civilization. Underwater archaeologist Guillermo de Anda of Mexico's National Institute of Anthropology and History led the Great Maya Aquifer Project (GAM), which has been exploring underwater caves on the Caribbean coastline of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico for decades. The region has 358 freshwater flooded cave systems that stretch for over 870 miles (1,400km). De Anda explained that their accomplishment has wide-ranging significance: Origins: Where did Catharism in the Languedoc Come From?/ Bogomilism was a Dualist sect founded in the First Bulgarian Empire by a priest called Bogomil during the reign of Tsar Peter I in the 10th century.
It arose in what is today the region of Macedonia in opposition to the Bulgarian state and the church. Enormous Hidden Void Discovered Within The Great Pyramid Of Giza Using Cosmic Ray Particles.

Although the monument’s original purpose is still disputed, we now know that within a few centuries it became a memorial to a vanished people. By then, almost every Briton, from the south coast of England to the north-east tip of Scotland, had been wiped out by incomers. It isn’t clear exactly why they disappeared so rapidly. Experts Restore Largest Known Early World Map, Complete With Unicorns, Lizard People, And Mermen.
Experts have restored one of the largest known early maps of the world, and it's glorious, mythical creatures and all.
The hand-drawn map was created 430 years ago by Urbano Monte. Centuries later, collector David Rumsey and his nephew have painstakingly scanned and digitally stitched together all 60 pages previously bound in an atlas, completing the map for the first time as it was originally intended. While little is known about the 16th-century cartographer who made it, the newly restored map gives insight into how people at the time understood the world. Created in 1587 in Milan, Italy, it shows the world in great detail, and was quite advanced for its day. The world as seen from above, looking down on the North Pole, was a perspective not commonly used by mapmakers at the time. This Is The Richest Person To Have Ever Lived.

No, it’s not Jeff Bezos or Bill Gates. China's 4,000-Year-Old "Great Flood" Founding Myth Was True All Along. Around four millennia ago, the Xia dynasty – China’s first line of unbroken hereditary rulers – was born along the Yellow River, according to legendary texts.
Save for some mysterious stone carvings and possible tombs, though, there’s very little archaeological evidence that convincingly shows that the Xia dynasty ever existed. It is, however, immortalized in the tale of the Great Flood. This epic story describes how a huge natural disaster almost destroyed the region before a man named Yu stepped in to save the day. According to legend, an immense flood 4,000 years ago left a portion of China on the brink of ruin, but, supposedly, Yu managed to divert much of the floodwater away from major settlements. Many have thought that this was nothing more than an elaborate work of fiction, but a striking new study published in Science reveals that the Great Flood was almost certainly a historical fact.

Lainaa: How the English Failed to Stamp Out the Scots Language. Over the past few decades, as efforts to save endangered languages have become governmental policy in the Netherlands (Frisian), Slovakia (Rusyn) and New Zealand (Maori), among many others, Scotland is in an unusual situation. A language known as Scottish Gaelic has become the figurehead for minority languages in Scotland. This is sensible; it is a very old and very distinctive language (it has three distinct r sounds!) , and in 2011 the national census determined that fewer than 60,000 people speak it, making it a worthy target for preservation. But there is another minority language in Scotland, one that is commonly dismissed.
It’s called Scots, and it’s sometimes referred to as a joke, a weirdly spelled and -accented local variety of English.

Pelkästään Kalevaa lukemalla voi havaita, että rakennussuojelijan osa tässä maassa on nykyisin todella hankala. Weimarin tasavallan sanasto. Espanjan vallankumous (1936) Espanjan vallankumoukseksi kutsutaan Espanjassa vuonna 1936 maan sisällissodan aikana anarkistien hallitsemilla alueilla käynnistyneitä yhteiskunnallisia uudistuksia ja muutoksia. Sen aikana työläiset ja talonpojat kollektivisoivat muun muassa maatalouden ja teollisuuden anarkososialistisen mallin mukaisesti. Lisäksi alueelle perustetut neuvostot käynnistivät uudelleen kunnallisia palveluja, kuten joukkoliikennettä ja kouluja maan hallituksen toiminnan osittain lamaannuttua sodan johdosta. Ensimmäinen työläisten johtamasta tehtaasta valmistunut linja-auto vuonna 1936.
Espanjan vallankumouksen aikana luotiin yksi harvoista maailmassa toteutuneista anarkistista yhteiskunnista. Lyhytaikaiseksi jäänyttä yhteiskuntajärjestelmää on aikalaiskertomusten mukaan yleisesti pidetty onnistuneena, joskin sisällissodan luonteesta johtuen siitä raportoivat lähinnä maassa vierailleet vasemmistolaiset toimittajat ja poliitikot.

"Hullu vuosi" 1968 toi ylioppilaat kaduille toukokuisessa Pariisissa, koko Euroopassa ja kautta maailman.

Travel - The secret seat of the Knights Templar. It was a beautiful spring day in Paris and I was on the terrace of Café Charlot in the French capital’s chicest district, the Marais.
Sipping an Aperol spritz, I watched the parade of Parisian glitterati sashay past me. At this time of year, Paris loves to celebrate the end of the dreary winter months, and nowhere can the famous Parisian joie de vivre be felt more strongly than in this Rive Droite centre of frivolity. On that day, however, I wasn’t interested in the surface-turned-runway of the Marais – but rather what lay below these designer-clad feet.
Because, incongruously, under the district’s cobblestoned streets lie the remnants of the mysterious Knights Templar’s mightiest stronghold. Osallistuivatko suomalaiset SS-vapaaehtoiset sotarikoksiin? - Kansallisarkisto. Avoin vastaus eversti evp Pekka Holopaisen ja eversti evp Kalle Liesisen arvosteluun Kansallisarkiston SS-selvityksestä Kanavassa ja Suomen Kuvalehdessä Suomalaisten SS-vapaaehtoisten toimintaa tutkittaessa on tärkeää tarkastella kokonaisuutta laajasta perspektiivistä - siitä, josta asioita tarkastellaan tämän päivän kansainvälisessä tutkimuksessa. Ei ole perusteltua ajatella, että suomalaiset SS-vapaaehtoiset olisivat toimineet omaehtoisesti jonkinlaisessa poliittisessa tai sotilaallisessa tyhjiössä.
He palvelivat Saksan asevoimissa ja toteuttivat Saksan poliittisia ja sotilaallisia tavoitteita. Suomen poliittinen johto oli jo keväällä 1941 hyväksynyt tämän ehdon, kun vapaaehtoisia ryhdyttiin värväämään. The British Library MS Viewer. Kotromanić dynasty.
