Iron Weapons And Tools From The Bronze Age Have An Extraterrestrial Origin

Image
MEDIA WHALE/SHUTTERSTOCK How did Bronze Age civilizations manage to forge iron weapons before they had learned how to smelt iron ore? It turns out, they had a little bit of help from the cosmos, as many of the iron artifacts from this era appear to have an extraterrestrial origin. French scientist Albert Jambon has been working on a new study that's carried out geochemical analysis on numerous iron artifacts from Bronze Age cultures across the ancient world. His findings, published in the Journal of Archaeological Science , strongly suggest that many of these relics were made out of iron meteorites from outer space. These artifacts included: beads from Gerzeh in Egypt (dating from 3200 BCE); a dagger from Alaca Höyük in Turkey (around 2500 BCE); a pendant from Umm el-Marra in Syria (approximately 2300 BCE); an axe from Ugarit in Syria (1400 BCE); relics from the Shang dynasty civilization in China (1400 BCE); and the dagger, bracelet, and headrest of Tutankhamun (1350 BCE).  Using ...

स्थानीय तहमा विधिको शासन

काठमाडौँ — निर्वाचित भएर काम थालेको एक वर्ष बितिसक्दा पनि कतिपय स्थानीय सरकारहरूले अझै लय पक्रन सकेका छैनन् । यसपालि पनि कैयौं स्थानीय तहले औपचारिकता पूरा गर्ने हिसाबले मात्र ‘कर्मकाण्डी’ बजेट ल्याएका छन् । यसले उनीहरूको कार्यप्रणालीमा रहेको बेथितिलाई औंल्याउँछ । हरेक असार १० गतेभित्र स्थानीय सरकारहरूले आगामी वर्षको बजेट पेस गरिसक्नुपर्ने कानुनी व्यवस्थाका कारण कतिपय गाउँ तथा नगरपालिकाले नीति तथा कार्यक्रमको खाका मात्रै ल्याएका छन् । विकासे योजनाका शीर्षक र रकम बाँडफाँडको आधारबिनै उनीहरूले बजेट प्रस्तुत गरेका हुन् । यसरी स्थानीय सरकारहरूले संविधान तथा कानुनप्रदत्त अधिकारहरूको समुचित अभ्यास गर्न नसक्नु दु:खद छ । कानुनद्वारा निर्धारित समयसीमा सकिसक्दा पनि कति स्थानीय सरकारले अझै बजेट ल्याउन सकेका छैनन् । ल्याएकामध्ये पनि कतिपयले ‘झारा टार्ने’ किसिमले मात्र ल्याएका छन् । बजेट पेस तथा पारित गर्ने क्रममा कतिले स्थानीय सरकार सञ्चालन ऐन, २०७४ को ठाडो उल्लंघन गरेका छन् । ऐनमा ‘सबै स्थानीय तहका उपाध्यक्ष, उपप्रमुख वा कार्यपालिकाले तोकेको सदस्यले’ बजेट पेस गर्नुपर्ने प्रावधान भए ...

"Ghost Disease" Near North Korea's Nuclear Test Site?

Image
IS IT REALLY DOWN TO RADIATION SICKNESS, OR SOMETHING ELSE? ATTILA JANDI/SHUTTERSTOCK There’s no doubt that parts of North Korea feature hellish humanitarian disasters. The Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site near Mount Mantap has made headlines several times in this regard in the last few months, with reports of deformed babies, corpses floating down rivers, and more being linked to the subterranean detonations. Now, as reported by  NBC News , North Korean defectors fleeing the area have spoken of something they’re colloquially referring to as a “ghost disease”. According to their accounts, leaking radiation is having a dreadful effect on their health, causing weakness, sores, and worse. One middle-aged escapee explained that people were dying all around her back in Kilju County, which features the underground test site. “We thought we were dying because we were poor and we ate badly. Now we know it was the radiation,” defector Lee Jeong Hwa told the human rights activists based in ...
