#Archeologists in Norway found an arrow that was likely trapped in ice for 4,000 years

by Dustin Jones, September 6, 2023

"Archeologists in Norway discovered an arrow shaft that appears to be from the #StoneAge, meaning it is approximately 4,000 years old.

"The discovery was made on the side of #MountLauvhøe, which stands at just over 6,500 feet in Norway's Lom Municipality. Archeologists had found arrows from the Iron and Middle ages when they last surveyed the area in 2017. However, this arrow shaft was found after ice at the site melted away in recent years, according to Lars Holger Pilø, co-director Secrets of the Ice, part of Norway's Department of Cultural Heritage.

"He said the discovery predates earlier finds by more than 2,000 years, which adds a lot more "time depth" to the site. Researchers can determine the age of the artifact by its shape, but will submit a sample of the wood for carbon dating once the field season is over."

Sur le #blog récit d'un naufrage : en 1431 des Vénitiens sombrent loin de chez eux et se retrouvent en Norvège #Histodon 📚 https://chezmarketmarcel.blogspot.com/2023/09/nous-perseverames-dans-cette-existence.html

Un ouvrage vient de paraître sur l'entrée de Jeanne de Castille à Bruxelles en 1496. C'est peut-être un détail pour vous mais pour moi, c'est une publication très très intéressante, que j'ai hâte de lire !
Cette entrée est connue grâce notamment à un manuscrit peint à l'aquarelle. Il donne à voir les spectacles, les acteurs et les actrices et une partie des dispositifs de mise en scène.

Et pour faire bonne mesure, c'est suivi l'après-midi de la projection du documentaire "Les Suppliques" de Jérôme Prieur.

"Les Suppliques" s'appuie sur les milliers de lettres - "suppliques" - adressées à Pétain par les victimes de la persécution antisémite, qui en appellent directement au chef de l’État, le "vainqueur de Verdun", pour les protéger. Glaçant, effrayant, déchirant, salutaire.

Super série d'émissions sur Harriet Taylor Mill, la fameuse "femme de" John Stuart Mill, le philosophe libéral. (A écouter jusqu'à la fin, dernier épisode un peu à part et très chouette, avec une universitaire et philosophe qui a contribué à renouveler l'historiographie sur elle à la fin des années 90, Michèle Le Doeuff, érudition x mimsitude)
