A mother had no idea she had two wombs until she discovered she was pregnant with twins – with one in EACH. Jennifer Ashwood gave birth to her one-in-500million twins Poppy and Piran House by c-section just months after discovering she had a rare ‘heart shaped’ uterus. The 31-year-old said her body has “surprised” her as there was no indication she had two wombs when she gave birth to her first child Millie, now eight. Doctors told her it was so rare to carry a baby in each one, they didn’t quite know what was going to happen until they…

Archaeologists from the Hubei Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology have uncovered a well-preserved human skill in China that is dated one million years ago while excavating in the central province of Hubei.

The first early animal bones began to develop 540 million years ago before the diversity of life on Earth blossomed. However, there aren’t many additional early skeletons left in the fossil record, and most of them have long since lost their soft portions. Because of this, it is difficult to describe the earliest skeleton organisms on Earth outside of hollow tubes and even more difficult to categorize them. Science Alert said archaeologists are now getting a close-up look at the early lifeforms around 514 million years ago thanks to a few fortunate fossils from China that beat the odds. (Photo :…

It may have been a storm or something else, but scientists now know a ship loaded with cargo from all over the Mediterranean ended its journey after sinking off the coast of Israel 1,200 years ago. The shipwreck offers evidence that traders from the West still came to port even after the Islamic conquest of the Holy Land. based on the findings so far, researchers have determined that the ship had docked in Cyprus, Egypt, maybe Turkey, and perhaps as far away as the North African coast. Its cargo is very interesting because some bore symbols of the Christian Byzantine…
