Most places with such varied history usually are, I'd be surprised if I were allowed to even keep a pottery shard.
Like id absolutely make sure it gets a climate controlled enclosure built around it and it would be open for public viewing and everything, I'd just want it to stay where it was buried
Egypt is pretty locked down about their antiquities (for incredibly understandable reasons, Europe looted and destroyed huge swathes of their history), I’d be surprised if you’re allowed to keep anything more significant than a pot shard. I’d want to at least keep it until I died too, though. I’m just watching it for the museum!
So obviously in certain areas, they can be fairly sure that if they stumble across certain things it could be an archeological find, and should contact some form of archeological society, museum, or other research authority....
But I'm imagining a farmer tripping over a rock, calling the cops, and the cops showing up to arrest the stone.
Also I'm not sure what they do in situations like this, but if they wanted to move them, I'd want to keep one.
Back when Geraldo did actual journalism.
Hell yeah, Nightwish. Go Finland.
Like the implication that the Mongolian people are just constantly reading about their hometown hero Genghis Khan
I think the point is that you can put in any location that might be of interest to you and an advertiser probably cares a lot less about the things that you read about on a different continent.
I have been dreaming of something like this for years. Walk around and be like i wonder what the story is behind that (public) building? And then just be able to find out or add information yourself.
That's true of any site you share your location with, isn't it? What elevates this site to "wet dream" levels?
Sure... but then what's the point of using the tool?
That's really only if you use your location. If I use Nukus, Uzbekistan, for example, then that's kind of a nothingburger for them.
I don't know anything about the person who runs this and I don't want to make any unfounded accusations, but I have to imagine that a site like this would be a data broker's wet dream.
It knows where you live and what local things you're most interested in. That's gotta be extremely valuable to advertisers.
"Hoop snakes are real" wasn't on my 2026 bingo card
Ah, a new nightmare unlocked. Neat.

Wow, I had no idea of this flight. Fascinating story.
What began as a daring experiment in the conquest of the skies would end in one of the most horrifying tragedies in the early history of aviation.
Neat!
That's beautiful.
Damn, that was my nickname in high school.
(No it wasn't.)
What’s weird concept for a movie. Could be interesting.
This guy gets it.
Neat.
Did anyone else read that article in a subtle Welsh accent and do a mental origami crane transition at least once between paragraphs?
