Turns out, it wasn’t just elite dudes making these—commoners and even women were in on the action! Scientists traced the hair to a regular person’s diet and region, proving khipu literacy was way more inclusive than anyone guessed. How wild is that? #History #IncaEmpire #HistoryRewrite40Share
Michael Flores+FollowGreenland Sled Dogs Just Changed HistoryTurns out, Greenland’s sled dogs (qimmit) have been keeping secrets for over a thousand years! New DNA research shows these pups split from their ancestors way before the Vikings showed up—like, over 1,100 years ago. Even wilder? Their closest dog relatives are ancient Alaskan sled dogs, not modern huskies. Basically, these dogs just rewrote what we thought we knew about when and how people settled Greenland. Who knew our furry friends could be history’s best storytellers? #Science #GreenlandDogs #HistoryRewrite451Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowAncient Chinese Star Chart Shakes Up HistoryTurns out, the Greeks weren’t the first to map the stars! Researchers just found a 2,300-year-old Chinese manuscript, Shi’s Star Catalogue, that’s now the world’s oldest star chart. Using AI, they confirmed it’s even older than the famous Greek charts. This ancient map logged 120 stars and 28 constellations—way ahead of its time. Who knew the Chinese were tracking the cosmos before anyone else? This discovery is literally rewriting astronomical history! #HistoryRewrite #AncientChina #Astronomy #Science71Share

Those ancient wooden spears found in a German coal mine might actually be Neanderthal tech, not from an earlier human ancestor like we thought. New research says they're about 200,000 years old—so Neanderthals could’ve been out there hunting horses with some seriously sophisticated weapons. This totally shakes up what we thought about their skills and teamwork. Still, not everyone’s convinced about the new timeline, but if true, Neanderthals just got way cooler in my book! #HistoryRewrite #Neanderthals #Archaeology #AncientTech #ScienceNews #Science00Share
