Geography: Colorado Landscape ---> Pagosa Springs & Wolf Creek Pass

 

Original post by @eaglespirit

Traveling alone from Denver, Colorado is quite a hike and can range up to 6 plus hours if you add in a meal or bathroom break. Ever since I first got to Colorado two years ago, I've been trying to find land in the four corners are of the state. The area is not an easy place to live since there are few jobs and expensive housing.

Pagosa Springs is a sweet town since it is home to a very popular hot springs and about an away from the area I am looking to buy land. In my opinion, it is a nice place to visit but not to live. What I like most about the town is the hot springs, and if you know anything about me then you know that is one of the main reasons I left California.

Geology: Hawaiian volcanoes - Part 14: Current eruption of Kīlauea

 

Original post by @sooflauschig

For the past two days it has been all around the news that parts of Kīlauea, located on the Big Island of Hawai'i, are erupting. It seems that I am not allowed to end my series on Hawaiian volcanoes yet, as Pele demands attention.
What was Kīlauea again?

In case you are not deeply into the material anymore, here a quick summary of the volcano that everyone is talking about.

KĪlauea is the youngest volcano that is currently emerged above the sea surface. The youngest volcano itself is Lō'ihi, but this one is still submerged off the southeastern side of Hawai'i. KĪlauea is located at the southeastern side of the main land Island of Hawai'i. It does not appear as a single shield volcano, but emerges as a bulge on the southeastern flank of Mauna Loa...

Archeology: Trepanation ever done humans on animals since 5000 years ago

 

Original post by @nasrud

The interactions and relationships of animals with humans have had many positive effects for a long time. It was expressed in a research conducted by the researchers. A mature, hollow cow (Bos taurus) skull was discovered by archaeologists. The skull is thought to originate from 3400-3000 years ago and shows that man has tried to do trepanation since 5000 years ago.

History: A study about the Aegean world.

 

Original post by @siruniversalis

During the sixth millennium BC numerous groups of tribes from Asia Minor and Syria who already knew agriculture, at least in their most rudimentary techniques, arrived on the shores of the Aegean Sea (located in the Eastern Mediterranean, off the coasts of Greece and Turkey today). Three thousand years later, in the first centuries of the Bronze Age, various civilizations of farmers, ranchers and merchants succeeded each other in the Aegean, distinguished only by certain features, such as Crete's characteristic funeral architecture or the Trojan goldwork . Among these civilizations there was a continuous movement of people, products and ideas, so that the Aegean became, over time, a single cultural space.
