“Karnak was the largest and one of the most important religious sites in ancient Egypt. It was a massive collection of temples, shrines, and other buildings that were built by various pharaohs over a period of 1,500 years.

"Very little is known about the identities and ethnolinguistic affiliations of the creators of ancient settlements that predate the arrival of Europeans in the early 16th century," states Dr. Jan Szymański from the University of Warsaw. "This gets worse the further back in time we look." To fill this gap in our knowledge, Dr. Szymański and his colleague Gabriela Prejs excavated at the large, hitherto unexcavated site of San Isidro in the Department of Sonsonate, western El Salvador. At the top of the largest pyramidal structure at the site, the researchers made an unexpected discovery: a rich offering resembling a funeral deposit, but without any human remains.

The objects, which were fashioned out of the limbs of large mammals such as hippos and elephants, may have been used to process animal carcasses into food. Although early human ancestors first began to make stone tools during the Oldowan age, which stretched from 2.7 million years ago to 1.7 million years, it was previously thought that toolmaking with bone material only began to develop around 500,000 years ago.

The meme is a lie. Screenshot of the old woman comes from a Jimmy Kimmel live segment where they asked how to get men into bed. No housing prices were asked.

It's a bit misleading and the tests were performed in 2019 to a disputed shawl owned by the suspect. This wouldn't hold up in modern court let alone Victorian age court.

Really like this art style

Haha yeah it’s tough to get good media discussions on Lemmy unfortunately

I really really enjoyed it. I feel like I laughed at it more than the second Deadpool. I really loved how it basically tied up the Fox universe and, not gonna lie, got a little verklempt at the end. Surprisingly emotional.

The music was fantastic too.
