Ancient 'Cup and Ring' Stone Carvings: Who Made Them, and Why? - Daily Grail

An enduring mystery may have a remarkably commonplace explanation, if amateur archaeologist Ronald W.B. Morris is correct. And Morris' simple theory strengthens the notion that humans past and present are more alike than different. That goes for geography, too, as the Prehistoric "Woodhenge" Discovered in Portugal may demonstrate. Jocelyne LeBlanc reports that "a unique structure in the Prehistory of the Iberian Peninsula" bears similarities to Stonehenge, which may indicate "that those living across Europe were much more connected with each other during the Neolithic period than previously thought." And similarities may extend beyond modern humans, as Stephanie Pappas demonstrates that a Mystery Ancestor Mated with Ancient Humans. And its 'Nested' DNA was Just Found. New research pushes back the first intermixing of modern humans and Neanderthals by well over 100,000 years, and suggests a prior intermingling with an as yet unidentified hominin ancestor to maybe 1,000,000 years BP.
