@histories_arch Where is the sudarium? There is one supposedly in another church but the image on it isn't the same. Also, to me, the blood splotches on the cloth look like they were dripped onto it rather than soaked in. And where are the bindings?. I believe Jesus existed, but this isnt him.

Using high-resolution photographs and modern image-analysis techniques, a chemical engineer has reexamined the Shroud of Turin and concluded that its faint body image is best explained by a short, intense burst of radiation, rather than paint, scorching, or natural decay. The research, published in June 2025 in the International Journal of Archaeology, analyzed both visible-light and ultraviolet images and found that the image’s pixel intensity naturally encodes real three-dimensional depth information. This is the same effect first observed in 1976 when a NASA-developed image analyzer produced a lifelike relief of the body from the shroud’s data.
When the image data is mathematically processed, it forms a coherent height-relief map of a human body that exists only at the outermost surface of the linen fibers, penetrating just micrometers into the cloth. According to the paper, radiation is the only known mechanism capable of producing both the shroud’s grayscale image and its intrinsic 3D information without saturating the fabric. The study does not claim proof of a miracle and does not directly challenge the medieval carbon-dating results. Instead, it argues that whatever formed the image behaved like an energetic radiation event, and that direct testing of the cloth is now the only way to determine its exact nature.
If the image wasn’t painted, burned, or caused by slow decay, what kind of event could realistically leave a radiation-like imprint on linen 2,000 years ago?

@archeohistories My dad worked as a milkman from 1955 til 1980. I helped him in the summers when school was out .it was hard work and long early hours and looking back i loved every day of it.but rhe old small town dairys and locally owned milk companies dont exist anymore. I miss it.

In 1950s, the milkman was a trusted figure who played a quiet yet essential role in everyday life. With his crisp uniform and clinking bottles nestled in a wire crate, he arrived each morning like clockwork, leaving fresh milk on doorsteps before most families had even begun their day. Often using a horse-drawn cart or an early electric milk float, he navigated suburban streets and city lanes alike. The milk, capped with foil or paper tops, was chilled and ready for breakfast—cream often rising to the top, waiting to be spooned into tea or cereal.
But the milkman delivered more than just dairy—he brought a sense of rhythm and connection to the community. Many families would leave handwritten notes in the empties requesting extra butter, cream, or even eggs, and the milkman would oblige without fail. His brief exchanges at the doorstep were a lifeline for those homebound, like new mothers or the elderly, and children eagerly awaited his arrival, sometimes rewarded with a smile or a wink. His presence represented a kind of trust and neighborliness now rare in modern life.
As supermarkets expanded and home refrigeration became widespread, the daily visit from the milkman began to fade. Yet for many, he remains a powerful symbol of a more personal, slower-paced era—when goods came to your door, and the people who delivered them knew your name. The soft rattle of glass bottles on a front step is now a nostalgic echo, reminding us of a time when community was measured in shared routines and friendly faces.

@histories_arch I will nwver understand how we went from under stand how we went fom understanding the cosmos thousands of years ago to thinking the sun recolved around the earth just a few hundred years ago.

For over 150 years, scholars have studied a mysterious cuneiform tablet discovered in the hidden library of King Ashurbanipal in Nineveh, Iraq. Initially thought to date to the Assyrian period around 650 BC, modern computer analysis has traced its origins back to 3300 BC, confirming it as a Sumerian creation. This revelation makes it one of the oldest surviving records of human observation of the heavens.
The tablet functions as an ancient astrolabe, featuring a segmented circular design with angular measurements etched along its edges. Researchers believe it may have been used to track celestial events, including early observations of the Köfel impact event. Its precise markings demonstrate advanced understanding of astronomy in early Mesopotamia and reflect the sophistication of Sumerian science.
As both a star map and an instrument, the tablet provides an extraordinary window into early human curiosity about the cosmos. It highlights how ancient civilizations systematically recorded celestial phenomena, bridging the gap between mythology, observation, and science. This artifact remains a testament to the ingenuity and intellectual achievements of Sumerian culture.

@femalebodybuil6 The women who deal with periods,pregnancy,and menopause of course... (totally kidding). Men have to deal with our own insecurities.

TRUMP: "Every time I end a war they say, 'If President Trump ends that war, he's going to get the Nobel Prize.'"
"If I end that war... 'Well, he won't get it for that war. But if he ever gets it for the next war.'"
"Now they're saying, 'If he ever ends the war with Russia and Ukraine, he's going to get the Nobel Prize.'"
"What about the other eight wars? ... Think of all the wars I ended."
"I should get the Nobel Prize for every war. But I don't want — I don't want to be greedy."
