Sample Stories
🧠 The Bog That Preserved 91 Ancient Brains
In 1982, Florida construction workers uncovered a 7,000-year-old burial site known as Windover Bog. Inside were 167 skeletons — and 91 still had preserved brain tissue. Scientists have no clear explanation for how it survived millennia.
⏳ The Emperor Who Ruled for Just 15 Minutes
In 1834, a Portuguese royal named Pedro V was declared emperor during a rushed power grab. But before his crown could even be placed on his head, the coup collapsed — making him the shortest-reigning monarch in recorded history.
🦴 The Skeleton That Solved a 500-Year Murder
Beneath a parking lot in Leicester, archaeologists found a twisted spine and fatal head wounds. DNA confirmed it was King Richard III — and his remains revealed the brutal truth behind his legendary death in 1485.
