Stupendemys Geographicus: The Giant Miocene Turtle 🐢
A recently discovered fossil in the Tatacoa Desert of Colombia and the Urumaco region of Venezuela sheds light on the enormous freshwater turtle Stupendemys geographicus, which lived between 8 and 4 million years ago. This turtle, reaching up to 13 feet in length and weighing approximately 2,750 pounds, is one of the largest ever recorded.
Male turtles had robust horns for territorial or mating battles. These horns left scars on fossils, suggesting aggressive encounters. In contrast, females lacked horns.
Stupendemys is the second-largest known turtle after Archelon, which measured 15 feet and lived 70 million years ago. The newly found fossils include the largest recorded turtle shell (9.4 feet long) and the first lower jaw remains.
Its diet included fish, caimans, snakes, mollusks, and vegetation, particularly fruits and seeds. These giant turtles primarily lived at the bottom of large lakes and rivers in what is now northern South America.
Stupendemys shared its environment with formidable predators like the caiman Purussaurus (36 feet long) and the gavial Gryposuchus (33 feet long). A crocodile tooth found embedded in a Stupendemys fossil indicates violent interactions between these creatures.
This discovery deepens our understanding of reptile evolution and past biodiversity, providing fascinating insights into the complex ecosystems of the Miocene epoch.

Homo Heidelbergensis : The Footprints of the Devil's Trail
A recent study reveals that the footprints found at the volcanic site of Roccamonfina, often called Ciampate del Diavolo (The Devil's Trail), likely belong to Homo heidelbergensis. Dated to around 350,000 years ago, these prints were preserved in volcanic ash after a major eruption. The analysis shows that five individuals of varying foot sizes descended the slope, sometimes in zigzags, using their hands for stability.
The detailed impressions, rediscovered in the 19th century, were formed in ash that was soft enough to capture intricate details. Researchers led by Adolfo Panarello highlight the similarity of these prints to fossils of H. heidelbergensis from Spain, specifically their short and wide shape. However, the possibility that the tracks might belong to Neanderthals or other hominins is not entirely ruled out due to evolutionary overlaps.
The volcanic ash of Roccamonfina offers a remarkable snapshot of the lives of these hominins, capturing their movement in a hazardous landscape. Stone tools found at the site and nearby support the hypothesis that these individuals hunted and lived in the region. The footprints tell a story of survival, curiosity, and possibly hunting, providing a rare glimpse into the behavior of distant ancestors.

🇮🇹 Perché i dolmen furono costruiti in tutto il mondo?
Si ritiene che si tratti di rifugi, depositi di cibo, una fonte di energia o qualcosa di astronomico, ma nessuna delle versioni è stata provata.

WOW!! Can’t believe I missed this news from last week…..The Notre Dame bells rang out for the first time in four years last Friday. Three new bells have been added to the tower, with the biggest bell called Gabriel. It will be completed by 7th or 8th December, with a whole weekend of celebrations marking the re-opening of the Tartarian building.
Bells are powerful and were used for healing. Bet the shapeshifting lizards are pissed, as they are afraid of bells because of the frequency. What a shame.
Make Bells Great Again!

There is no clear indication of when we stopped building wooden sheds with unequal levels - and started building palaces and citadels with symmetrical complexity and beauty. When did we go from one to the other and why did the skills die off after the war ?
