In the German state of Brandenburg, barely a hundred meters (about 330 feet) from the border with Saxony-Anhalt, the Havel River curls around a low rise of land that locals call the Pilatsch. For generations, a local legend held that a knight named Pilatus lived there, ambushing boats on the river and locking captured boatmen […]

A team led by the National Museum of Denmark has worked out, for the first time, what people actually cooked in the pots of Hama, an ancient city in western Syria, roughly 4,500 years ago. By analyzing animal bones, plant remains, and fat residues absorbed into the vessel walls, the researchers found a surprisingly varied […]

The site is called Külhöyük, in the Oyaca neighborhood of Ankara’s Gölbaşı district, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) south of the capital. It’s a tell — the term Near Eastern archaeology uses for an artificial mound built up by layer upon layer of human occupation — roughly 250 by 150 meters (820 by 490 feet) […]

On the slope below the cemetery of Sant’Elpidio a Mare, in Italy’s Le Marche region, recent heavy rains loosened the hillside enough to expose something no one was looking for: a rounded ceramic vessel, decoration still visible, sitting almost intact in the displaced earth. It looked, at first, like debris. It turned out to be […]

Around 1590 BCE — more than 800 years before Rome was founded, and before Tutankhamun was even born — a small number of people in what is now southeastern Poland started eating a cereal that had never grown in their fields. It wasn’t a local crop, and it didn’t belong to any plant known elsewhere […]

Two skeletons from the Indonesian island of Sulawesi had something strange going on in their mouths. Not cavities. Not the usual wear from a tough diet. Deep, rounded grooves cut into the teeth — a pattern no archaeologist had documented before, and one nobody could explain. The answer, published in Science Advances, pushes the known […]

The unilateral declaration of two marine parks by Turkey in international waters in the Aegean Sea has caused heavy waves and threatens to drown the “calm waters” policy between the two neighboring countries and has led to sharp rhetoric from both sides. “Any move that could lead to uncontrolled escalation must be avoided,” Foreign Minister […]

In the 1930s, the German Nazi regime launched an ambitious archaeological research program with a clear goal: to prove that Germanic culture was the oldest and most superior in the world. To achieve this, the organization known as Ahnenerbe (Ancestral Heritage) sent two expeditions to Scandinavia with the mission of making plaster casts of the […]

For nearly two centuries, archaeologists excavating Nimrud, one of the capitals of the Assyrian Empire in present-day northern Iraq, focused their attention on the acropolis mound. There, they unearthed palaces, temples, and massive stone reliefs depicting the deeds of kings. But the city that spread at its feet—an extensive area of 340 hectares surrounded by […]

Jeder in Deutschland weiß, dass die westliche Propaganda erfolgreich dafür gesorgt hat, dass im kollektiven Gedächtnis in Deutschland massenhafte Vergewaltigungen durch Soldaten der sowjetischen Roten Armee verankert wurden, während die gleiche Propaganda die Soldaten der westlichen Länder als Befreier darstellt, die Kindern Schokolade gegeben haben. Dass laut historischer Forschung alleine US-Soldaten bis zum Ende der […]

Am Dienstag war ich mal wieder im Homeoffice von NuoViso zu Gast, wo mich Robert Stein und Frank Höfer zwei Stunden lang zu den aktuellen Themen der Weltpolitik befragt haben. Da in den drei Tagen seit dem nicht so viel passiert ist, haben Robert Stein und ich beschlossen, Tacheles diese Woche ausfallen zu lassen, weil […]

I used to be in a friend group chat called “Tinder Spinsters,” a group of girls offering support as we navigated the tumultuous dating world. Faith Hill’s chat is named “Lonely Hearts Club,” but are these groups becoming a thing of the past? Are people even still trying? In a 2025 YouGov poll, 69 percent of single respondents said they “rarely” or “never” go on dates. Nowadays, it’s complicated. On the positive side, a relationship is no longer seen as essential for a happy life—women’s interest in men, in particular, has dimmed as their financial independence has grown. But many people would still love to find a partner; they are just finding that modern romance requires a toll “paid in energy, in sanity, in cash, in hours—and not everyone can afford it.”

The hug was the last round, though, and then real life resumed. We mingled, but the intimacy had disappeared. One man told me that he had high emotional intelligence and could tell that I did too—then he suggested that we travel together someday, handed me his business card, and walked away. I gave a few people my phone number, including one man who sent me a picture of his face the very next morning and another who texted me so much (even after a polite rebuff) that I had to block him. One date with another guy resulted, but I wasn’t interested in a second. The perception of abundance had, once again, evaporated into nothing.
