- trump will *never* admit to not knowing anything

I've been mostly offline today and I saw Erik Von Daniken died. He was a virulent racist and bigot and a convicted felon, and his alien archaeology "theories"
did incalculable harm to the field of archaeology. Those are his legacies.

A shake-up of the dinosaur family tree! Rhabdodontids are not ornithopods. They are ceratopsians.
There were horned dinosaurs in Europe! As shown by a new fossil of Ajkaceratops from Hungary!

Nice!
This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

2nd century AD tombstone of Regina from the tribe of the Catuvellauni & wife of Barates from Palmyra. The tombstone is bilingual in Latin and Aramaic - the only known example in Britain. Part of the collections at Arbeia Roman Fort in South Shields. 📸 My own #EpigraphyTuesday
