Archaeologists are excavating the relics of the ancient and long-forgotten kingdoms of Dadan and Lihyan in the parched desert and mountains of AlUla in northwest Saudi Arabia. The spectacular tombs of Madain Saleh, a 2,000-year-old city carved into rocks by the Nabateans, the pre-Islamic Arab people who also constructed Petra in neighboring Jordan, have made AlUla a major tourist attraction since it opened in 2019. Five nearby sites associated to the Dadanite and Lihyanite civilisations, key regional powers that flourished 2,000 years ago, are currently being excavated by a team of French and Saudi archaeologists. Abdulrahman al-Sohaibani, who is co-directing the Dadan archaeological mission, said, "It's a project that genuinely aims to unveil the mysteries of (these) civilisations." According to the Royal Commission for the project, Dadan is referenced in the Old Testament, and the Lihyanite kingdom was one of the greatest of its time, ranging from Medina in the sout...
Introduction You'll understand why the world today is characterized by high levels of fear, stress, and anxiety about the future, despite the fact that the future contains many promises. In actuality, tensions, societal divisions, daily confrontations, international terrorism, assassinations, and the destructive actions of modern technology on the existing natural environment characterize the world today. Despite these issues, people still have the certainty and possibilities of directing their destiny and ensuring that their lives are shaped for the better, something that previous generations may not have been able to achieve.

This is what causes the field of sociolo...
The museum pays homage to the forefather of Indian history Robert Bruce Foote, a pioneer of both south Indian geology and Indian prehistory, has a new museum in Ballari, Karnataka, dedicated to his legacy. Robert Bruce Foote unearthed the first Palaeolithic stone tool—a hand axe—in Pallavaram, near Chennai, in 1863, marking a watershed moment in Indian archaeology. Notwithstanding, in 1884, the geologist discovered the Belum caves in Andhra Pradesh, the Indian subcontinent's second largest cave system. Foote amassed a large collection of relics during his tenure, based on his 40 years of geological and archaeological excavations in western and southern India. And now, in Ballari, Karnataka, a museum devoted to his many findings has opened. The Robert Bruce Foote Sanganakallu Archaeological Museum is not only a monument to the geologist's many accomplishments, but it also examines the historical significance of Ballari. For example, in the 1970s, the faculty of Karnatak Univer...
