A huge ancient city has been found in the Amazon, hidden for thousands of years by lush vegetation.

The discovery changes what we know about the history of people living in the Amazon.

The houses and plazas in the Upano area in eastern Ecuador were connected by an astounding network of roads and canals.

The area lies in the shadow of a volcano that created rich local soils but also may have led to the destruction of the society.

While we knew about cities in the highlands of South America, like Machu Picchu in Peru, it was believed that people only lived nomadically or in tiny settlements in the Amazon.

"This is older than any other site we know in the Amazon. We have a Eurocentric view of civilisation, but this shows we have to change our idea about what is culture and civilisation," says Prof Stephen Rostain, director of investigation at the National Centre for Scientific Research in France, who led the research.

"It changes the way we see Amazonian cultures. Most people picture small groups, probably naked, living in huts and clearing land - this shows ancient people lived in complicated urban societies," says co-author Antoine Dorison.

The city was built around 2,500 years ago, and people lived there for up to 1,000 years, according to archaeologists.

It is difficult to accurately estimate how many people lived there at any one time, but scientists say it is certainly in the 10,000s if not 100,000s.

The archaeologists combined ground excavations with a survey of a 300 sq km (116 sq mile) area using laser sensors flown on a plane that could identify remains of the city beneath the dense plants and trees.

"The road network is very sophisticated. It extends over a vast distance, everything is connected. And there are right angles, which is very impressive," he says, explaining that it is much harder to build a straight road than one that fits in with the landscape.

The scientists also identified causeways with ditches on either side which they believe were canals that helped manage the abundant water in the region.

There were signs of threats to the cities - some ditches blocked entrances to the settlements, and may be evidence of threats from nearby people.

Researchers first found evidence of a city in the 1970s, but this is the first time a comprehensive survey has been completed, after 25 years of research.

It reveals a large, complex society that appears to be even bigger than the well-known Mayan societies in Mexico and Central America.

—

Some of the findings are "unique" for South America, he explains, pointing to the octagonal and rectangular platforms arranged together.

The societies were clearly well-organised and interconnected, he says, highlighting the long sunken roads between settlements.

Not a huge amount is known about the people who lived there and what their societies were like.

Pits and hearths were found in the platforms, as well as jars, stones to grind plants and burnt seeds.

Prof Rostain says he was warned against this research at the start of his career because scientists believed no ancient groups had lived in the Amazon.

What’s my love language? Glad you asked, my love language is biting. But it’s cool that yours is acts of quality affirmation or whatever from some book by a homophobic pastor.

#periodic reminder that the book which originated the concept of 5 love languages was written by a Baptist pastor and is very misogynistic #and since he doesn’t believe in divorce it also encourages women in abusive relationships to stay in them #also there’s 0 scientific backing; he made up the whole concept based on his experience as a marriage counselor for couples in his church #and has no credentials as a therapist or psychologist; his doctorate is in religious education #chomp

GOT COMMENTS ON MY PHD THESIS FROM THE MOST STRICT PROF IN MY COMMITTEE and she said ‘the thesis, and i specifically want to point out the discussion, is very beautifully written, especially considering how broad/detailed the subject studied is’ and she only has a few like technical details, she didn’t even send me the file back she just wrote it as bullet points in an email im literally about to fucking CRY

#I CANT BELIEVE IT LIKE THIS IS ITTTTTT #btw she’s VERY strict about Croatian language & grammar and very detailed about science and genetics specifically #which is like literally her field of research & also she wrote the part of the Croatian dictionary that has to do w scientific terms #SO LIKE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 remember when supervisor from hell said that i ‘clearly can’t write very well and need a lot of help with writing and the #Croatian language’ well babe 😌 maybe it’s a You thing instead of a me thing

I think often abt the way that Wylan is in s2 ep6

spoilers ahead obvs but like me when me and my bf are fighting and i miss him so much that I infodump to myself abt the symbiotic relationship that reminds me of us. (He's dying in the other room)

#ppl will rage that anti intelectualism is bullshit and then in the next post complain that they hate math and it is useless #like ok do you even realise that the point of..ath is not just memorizing formulas but knowing how why where they come from how to use them #and learning effecient problem solving and also increase reaction speed to solving issues #like yeah ok maybe u had a bad teacher or u just actually suck at math thats fair #dont throw and entire scientific language that so many other fields.relly on under the bus #even in art i use math and chemistry so lke maybe go learn that everything is connect and science is beautiful #and tje youll be less of an annoying whinner about something just bc u suck at it

im experiencing scar induced madness again. I feel like people do not give him enough credit for being extremely poetic when he wants to be. sure he might seem stoic, but the dude busts out lines like this like it's nothing

#fma #scar fma #the one when he's talking to mustang gives me CHILLS #GET HIS ASS #''I am the ooze born from the open gaping wound that was ishbal'' good LORD dude #I love this guy so much #I feel like people see ''stoic warrior on a vengeance quest'' and don't see much past that #forgetting that scar is extremely well read #like. the guy is fluent in an archaic language #he's probably trilingual #he might not be god's (least) favorite little scientific prodigy like edward #but he's extremely intelligent #I love moments in fight scenes when we get a bit of insight into his thought process #seeing how quickly he's thinking on his feet and how strategic he is #god I love this guy

does anyone acquainted with dnd lore have an idea what the in game world was like when Raphael was born? Is it as much a difference as 1000–2000 years in our world??

#NEED to know this #for scientific purposes #that mans a FOSSIL imagine bg3 set in our world and him literally existing since the iron age #does he constantly need to learn new mortal languages? since those evolve quite fast as well?? #what about CUSTOMS what if he's busy and accidentally doesn't visit the mortal plane for 500 years and suddenly everyone acts different #bg3 raphael #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate iii #raphael the cambion #raphael bg3

Okay people help me out I wanna see something / I have a question out of pure genuine interest

(I hope the options are good I tried my best 🙏)

Feel free to elaborate in the tags I'm genuinely interested!

Personally I'm this:

do you ever think about how english allows for a lot of cool vivid expressions with verbs due to combining them with prepositions and how spanish has gender embedded into like every word and how the inflectional system is incredibly rich and. do you ever think of how that changes the way in which we understand and create literature in both languages since they have such different tools for producing poetic imagery. do you ever think about that.

#a classmate pointed it out a while ago and though it is obvious and i knew it it just. hit me? #like OH. YES #so so in awe at path of motion constructions and how sadly we dont have any naturally sounding equivalent in spanish #now im curious and i want to read different poems and their translations into both languages and see how they differ bc. fascinating #see this is the kind of shit that scares me abt literary translation lmaoo gimme any scientific journal and ill do good #bUT A POEM?? #anyway. nerdy thoughts. #nerd bee #linguistics #poetry #literature #mine #boludeces y reclamos mios(?

Beatrice notices it early on in Switzerland, the way Ava circles her in a decaying orbit. She's well aware that, if left unchecked, collision is inevitable. That Ava, caught in her gravity well, will do everything she can to burn bright and fast rather than fade away.

I think my university should pay me for emotional damages for having to write a thesis exposé. To the amount of whatever I need to go on a short trip to Helsinki to recharge from this bs and to get a tattoo and a coffin full of Fazer chocolates.

#i've been in the library since 6pm or so and have not gotten a single letter done #because i genuinely Do Not Know what to write about this #i don't WANT to write a thesis; having to write a thesis will be my last straw to a break-down if that terminography seminar doesn't do it #and i don't get the point of a thesis anyway. no one but me and my advisor and maybe two examinors will read it #i'll not bring forth any important new knowledge to use #even if i did magically discover some groundbreaking new way to teach second languages - which is not the focus of my paper #like i wanted because the head of institute said no - it would still mean nothing because no one's gonna read it anyway #i'm literally just some rando with subpar grades and papers and motivation and dedication to my studies except for the classes i like #and feel like i'm actually learning something important #which is another point: I'm studying translation and interpreting.
