I dette nummeret

This issue features our annual list of the Top 10 Discoveries of the Year, including a Moche queen’s splendidly painted throne room, the surprising origins of the Scythians, and petroglyphs carved alongside 140-million-year old dinosaur tracks in Brazil. We also bring you on a trek into the mountains of Guatemala, where Maya artists created murals depicting elaborate dance performances. Follow along as researchers decipher passages from lost Greek tragedies that were preserved on a discarded papyrus. And dive down to a medieval ship carrying precious marble bound for England’s grandest cathedrals. In these stories—and so many more—this issue of ARCHAEOLOGY brings the past to life.
