Bulgarian archeologists in the historical coastal town of Sozopol are working on unearthing two antique temples - of Gods Poseidon and Priapus.

 

The information was announced over the weekend by the Director of the National History Museum and former Minister for Bulgarians abroad, Bozhidar Dimitrov. He added that archaeological excavations were ongoing near the fortress wall where the entrance to the town was uncovered in the summer with well-preserved parts of two towers and the "Saint Nikolay" monastery.

David Connolly's insight:

Bulgaria is one of the up coming places for archaeology and new knowledge! 

keep at it!

Where Did Curry Come From?

Where Did Curry Come From? | Archaeology News | Scoop.it
From www.slate.com - January 30, 1:50 AM
What is curry? Today, the word describes a bewildering number of spicy vegetable and meat stews from places as far-flung as the Indian subcontinent, the South Pacific, and the Caribbean Islands.

 

But the original curry predates Europeans’ presence in India by about 4,000 years. Villagers living at the height of the Indus civilization used three key curry ingredients—ginger, garlic, and turmeric—in their cooking. This proto-curry, in fact, was eaten long before Arab, Chinese, Indian, and European traders plied the oceans in the past thousand years.
