Fancy A Bite
We’ve all got a friend with pretty questionable taste. They choose the strangest items from the catalog, the weirdest dishes from the menu, and always the most eyebrow-raising relationship partners. But I’ve got news for you, they have some stern competition. Neanderthals from around 49,000 years ago used the skulls and bones of their cannibalistic victims as cutlery, crockery and jewelry. This came to light when archaeologists found 12 Neanderthals in a cave in northern Spain in 2010. This also further promoted the theory that Neanderthals’ cannibalism contributed to their extinction.

Underwater Oracle Of The Dead
In 1962 explorers discovered a complex tunnel system within the cliffs at Baiae, Italy. The area had already attracted divers and researchers who went to explore Roman sculptures that were covered by water after volcanic activities over the centuries. But the mysterious part of Necromanteion was the temple where locals went to consult with the dead. It was appropriately named the “Oracle of the Dead”. It remains mysterious and generally unstudied by archaeologists.
