megangibson+FollowAncient Egyptian Blue Is Back—With a Twist!Get this: scientists just cracked the code on Egyptian blue, a 5,000-year-old pigment that vanished after the Romans. Not only did they recreate it using ancient methods, but they found it glows in infrared—meaning it could be used for high-tech stuff like anti-counterfeit money and medical imaging! Turns out, the secret was slow-cooling the mix, just like the OG artisans did. Who knew a color from King Tut’s tomb could help shape the future? #EgyptianBlue #AncientTech #ScienceNews100Share
susanfoster+FollowNeanderthals: The OG Hunters?Mind blown! Those ancient wooden spears found in a German coal mine might actually be Neanderthal tech, not from an earlier human ancestor like we thought. New research says they're about 200,000 years old—so Neanderthals could’ve been out there hunting horses with some seriously sophisticated weapons. This totally shakes up what we thought about their skills and teamwork. Still, not everyone’s convinced about the new timeline, but if true, Neanderthals just got way cooler in my book! #HistoryRewrite #Neanderthals #Archaeology #AncientTech #ScienceNews #Science00Share
