Hari Tulsidas<p>Researchers have found an extensive wall of ancient pictographs deep in the Amazon rainforest. These intricate and vast artworks, often called the “Great Wall of Amazonian Pictographs,” depict scenes of wildlife, humans, and abstract symbols, providing a window into the lives and beliefs of ancient Amazonian civilisations. These pictographs remain mainly unknown to the public. </p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Archaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Archaeology</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Amazon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Amazon</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Pictographs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pictographs</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/AncientArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AncientArt</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ScientificDiscovery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScientificDiscovery</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.thecollector.com/amazonian-pictographs-great-wall/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">thecollector.com/amazonian-pic</span><span class="invisible">tographs-great-wall/</span></a></p>
Hari Tulsidas<p>A recently discovered ancient bone could provide insights into how Neanderthals cared for a child with Down syndrome.
