पाचाकामाकमधील एका दफन स्थळातून सापडलेल्या विधीतील पोपटांच्या पिसांचा उगम संशोधकांनी डीएनए, आयसोटोप विश्लेषण आणि अवकाशीय मॉडेलिंगद्वारे अमेझॉनच्या जंगली पक्ष्यांपर्यंत शोधून काढला, ज्यातून इंका आधीचे लांब पल्ल्याचे व्यापार जाळे उघड झाले.

प्राचीन डीएनए विश्लेषणाने पुष्टी केली आहे की 1,400 वर्षांपूर्वी अँग्लो-सॅक्सन इंग्लंडमध्ये एकत्र दफन केलेली दोन मुले भाऊ-बहिण होती, ज्यामुळे असामान्यपणे जवळच्या कबरीला दुर्मीळ जैविक तपशील मिळाला

An archaeological reconstruction of medieval Nubian ceremonial dress is giving researchers a more tangible sense of how clothing communicated prestige, rank, and authority in a lost Christian kingdom.

A genetic study of 78 skeletons from a Korean cemetery is providing new evidence about sunjang, the practice of burying attendants with elites, and is offering a sharper picture of kinship and hierarchy in ancient Silla.

Greek officials are taking a closer look at how wildfires, extreme heat, and rising water levels could threaten major archaeological sites, reframing cultural preservation as a climate resilience challenge
