Archaeologists began new excavations at the medieval Urvich fortress 20km from Bulgaria’s capital city Sofia at the beginning of October 2012, with the first finds including silver rings, earrings and bronze and iron personal items, Bulgarian archaeology professor Nikolai Ovcharov said.
Urvich fortress is near the banks of the Iskar River in the Pancharevo area close to the road from Sofia to Samokov.
The fortress is estimated to date from the 13th century CE, during the time of the Second Bulgarian Kingdom.
Ovcharov told a news conference that work was to begin at a large necropolis near the fortress and the monastery.

Stone Age Europeans Were First Native Americans

History; Posted on: 2012-10-15 23:41:04 [ Print / Instant Flyer |

Europeans may have been the first people to settle in America, possibly more than ten thousand years before anyone else set foot there.
A series of European-style tools dating from twenty-six-thousand to nineteen-thousand years ago have been discovered in six separate locations along the east coast of the United States.
Archaeologists previously thought that America was populated by migrants making their way from Siberia to Alaska, and then spreading through the rest of the continent.
But the first of these Asian tribes started moving there about 15,500 years ago – and there is no evidence of human activity in Siberia or Alaska from before that time.
Professors Dennis Stanford and Bruce Bradford, the two archaeologists who made the discovery, suggest Europeans moved across the Atlantic during the peak of Ice Age.

Just how did these peoples live before they came into contact with Europeans?
For decades now, African American leaders have been calling for a formal
United States apology for the American role in the slave trade, with
some even demanding reparations. Indian tribes proclaim their tax-exempt
status as something they are owed for a legacy of persecution by the
United States. Mexican Americans in the
southwest United States seek to incorporate this region, including
California, into Mexico, or even to set up an independent nation,
Aztlan, that will recreate the glories of the Aztec empire, destroyed
centuries ago by the imperialistic Spaniards.

John A. Macdonald Wanted an ‘Aryan’ Canada
|
History; Posted on: 2012-09-16 10:19:18 [ Print / Instant Flyer |

Major cities are rapidly becoming dangerous third-world hell-holes, with
minority crime rates far exceeding those of white Canadians, and
innocents of all races being killed or wounded in the crossfire as black
gangs show no compunction about fighting it out and settling scores in
crowded public places. In 1885, John A. Macdonald told the House of Commons that, if the
Chinese were not excluded from Canada, “the Aryan character of the
future of British America should be destroyed …” This was the precise
moment in the histories of Canada and the British Dominions when
Macdonald personally introduced race as a defining legal principle of
the state. He did this not just in any piece of legislation, but
in the Electoral Franchise Act, an act that defined the federal polity
of adult male property holders and that he called “my greatest
achievement.”

Stone-age Europeans 'Were the First to Set Foot on North America'

|
Once again, the so-called "extremists" were right.
In a discovery that could rewrite the history of the Americas, archaeologists have found a number of stone tools dating back between 19,000 and 26,000 years, and bearing remarkable similarities to those made in Europe.
All of the ancient implements were discovered along the north-east coast of the USA.
The tools could reassert the long dismissed and discredited claim that Europeans in the form of Christopher Columbus and his crew were the first to discover the New World.

On Committing the Matricide of Europe

A comment on a review of the book "Hellstorm," and the collapsing economy that will soon overwhelm the anti-white, rootless spirit in America, moved me to add this article by Michael O’Meara, originally titled “Summer 1942, Winter 2010: An Exchange” (French translation here).
In the Summer of 1942—while the Germans were at the peak of their powers, totally unaware of the approaching fire storm that would turn their native land into an inferno—the philosopher Martin Heidegger wrote (for a forth-coming lecture course at Freiberg) the following lines, which I take from the English translation known as Hölderlin’s Hymn “The Ister”:[1]
“The Anglo-Saxon world of Americanism”—Heidegger noted in an aside to his nationalist/ontological examination of his beloved Hölderlin—“has resolved to annihilate Europe, that is, the homeland, and that means: [it has resolved to annihilate] the commencement of the Western world.”

The Pagan Roots of Easter
|
History; Posted on: 2012-04-06 06:27:36 [ Print / Instant Flyer |
|
Easter bunnies, Easter eggs, even the death and resurrection of a God are all far older traditions than you might think.
This Easter, let us celebrate a God, born from a virgin, who was sacrificed on a Friday only to resurrect three days later and bring with him the promise of eternal life. No, it wasn’t Jesus (he resurrected after only two days), this was Attis, an older God and consort of Cybele. Attis was a God of vegetation and it was the burgeoning Spring that he represented.
Worshipers of Attis used to mingle in ancient Rome with those following Jesus and doubtless they used to have some humdingers over which was the true God and which the usurper. Even then, they were not unique and virtually every civilisation has an equivalent deity: Tammuz, Adonis, Baal, Osiris, and Dionysus are a few.

First Americans Places Stone Age Europeans in America 20,000 Years Ago

Mounting evidence that Europeans in America predated the arrival of Native Americans.
When the crew of the Virginia scallop trawler Cinmar hauled a mastodon tusk onto the deck in 1970, another oddity dropped out of the net: a dark, tapered stone blade, nearly eight inches long and still sharp.
Forty years later, this rediscovered prehistoric slasher has reopened debate on a radical theory about who the first Americans were and when they got here.
Archaeologists have long held that North America remained unpopulated until about 15,000 years ago, when Siberian people walked or boated into Alaska and then moved down the West Coast.

The "White" Slave Children of New Orleans

Incredible historical photos of mixed children of white fathers; caught between two worlds, manipulated to raise funds...
When eight former slaves aimed to drum up support for struggling African-American schools in the 1860s, they believed they had just the thing.
In order to garner sympathy - and funds - from rich northerners as they toured the country, organisers from New Orleans portrayed the slaves as white for a propaganda campaign, using four children with mixed-race ancestry and pale complexions.
They believed the white faces of Charles Taylor, Rebecca Huger, Rosina Downs and Augusta Broujey would encourage donors to sympathise with the plight of recently-emancipated slaves and give more generously.
The youngsters are pictured together and with dark-skinned children in sepia-tinged photographs entitled 'Emancipated Slaves'. Dressed in dapper clothing, they are photographed wrapped in American flags above text such as: 'These children were turned out of [a] hotel on account of color'.

It's Not President's Day -- It's Washington's Birthday

So make a mental note for next year to honor our first President and founding father...
Why you should stop calling today Presidents' Day
True, many refer to today's national day off as Presidents' Day, but federal law actually lists the holiday as Washington's Birthday.
We don't care what that mattress sale ad says – there is no such thing as a national Presidents’ Day. It’s a myth, like the story about George Washington chopping down a cherry tree and throwing it across the Potomac at Abe Lincoln.
Yes, there is a federal day off on Feb. 20, 2012. But its official name is “Washington’s Birthday.” We’re supposed to celebrate the life and legacy of the Father of Our Country, not the rest of those Mount Rushmore guys. They can get their own holiday. Thomas Jefferson, we’re looking at you.

As terrible as it is to live in a nation where the press in known to be controlled by the government, at least one now has the advantage of knowing the bias is present, and to adjust for it. In the United States of America, we are taught from birth that our press is free from such government meddling. This is an insidious lie about the very nature of the news institution in this country. One that allows the government to lie to us while denying the very fact of the lie itself.

Archaeologists find preserved bodies of 21 World War One German soldiers
The bodies of 21 German soldiers entombed in a perfectly preserved World War One shelter have been discovered 94 years after they were killed. The men were part of a larger group of 34 who were buried alive when a huge Allied shell exploded above the tunnel in 1918, causing it to cave in.
Thirteen bodies were recovered from the underground shelter, but the remaining men had to be left under a mountain of mud as it was too dangerous to retrieve them. Nearly a century later, French archaeologists stumbled upon the mass grave on the former Western Front in eastern France during excavation work for a road building project.

Mysterious 'Winged' Structure from Ancient Rome Discovered

Europa reveals yet another of her secrets and of our people who live there.
A recently discovered mysterious "winged" structure in England, which in the Roman period may have been used as a temple, presents a puzzle for archaeologists, who say the building has no known parallels. (Emphasis ours. --Ed.)
Built around 1,800 years ago, the structure was discovered in Norfolk, in eastern England, just to the south of the ancient town of Venta Icenorum. The structure has two wings radiating out from a rectangular room that in turn leads to a central room.

White Cargo: The Forgotten History of Britain's White Slaves in America

Contrary to popular belief blacks were not the sole targets of slavery, thus negating the hushed reverence reserved for them by governmental and social dictate.
In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, more than 300,000 white people were shipped to America as slaves. Urchins were swept up from London's streets to labor in the tobacco fields, where life expectancy was no more than two years. Brothels were raided to provide "breeders" for Virginia. Hopeful migrants were duped into signing as indentured servants, unaware they would become personal property who could be bought, sold, and even gambled away. Transported convicts were paraded for sale like livestock.

Dear Santa Letter Sent 100 Years Ago Found Up Chimney

Echoes from ancestors
It may have been slightly scorched over the years but a letter to Santa written 100 years ago, which was later discovered in a Dublin fireplace, has the magic of Christmas written all over it.
On Christmas Eve 1911, a brother and sister, who signed their names, “A or H Howard”, penned their personally designed letter to Santa with their requests for gifts and a good luck message at their home in Oaklands Terrace, Terenure (or Terurnure, as the children spelled it) in Dublin.
They placed it in the chimney of the fireplace in the front bedroom so that Santa would see it as he made his way into the Howard household in the early hours of the morning.
The letter was discovered by the house’s current occupant, John Byrne, when he was installing central heating in 1992.

Happy First Day of Winter Eve

History; Posted on: 2011-12-21 14:14:13 [ Print / Instant Flyer |

The Unconquerable Sun dies and is reborn. Nights stretch long and the light is weak, tomorrow is the First Day of Winter! For three days the sun stands still and the dark is powerful and nights are long; then a slow crawl north to the point of the Equinox begins.
For the members of any culture, it can be easy to take for granted their customs and traditions of today, as if they are now as they have always been and will always remain; but because cultures evolve over the years, this is usually not so. Drawing back the curtains of time can bring to light the formation of a tradition's character -- revealing its origins and tracing its journey through time.
This is the case with celebrations at the time of the Mid-Winter Solstice. Throughout the world and throughout the ages, people have had celebrations at the time of the year's longest night. The power of this time of longest dark miraculously transforming into increasing light has spawned many beliefs and mythologies. All of the celebrations of this time incorporate in some way the idea of and the experience of light. The word "light" is often included in popular name of the holiday, such as the Jewish holiday of "Hanukkah, a Festival of Lights," and the Christian holiday of "Christmas, the Season of Light."

German Soldiers in the Soviet Union: Letters from the East
|
History; Posted on: 2011-12-18 20:19:08 [ Print / Instant Flyer |

History is written by the victor.
Background | When the Nazis invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, they encountered a propaganda windfall. Conditions in the Soviet Union were often deplorable by German standards. In January 1942, the Nazis published a 60-page booklet titled German Soldiers in the Soviet Union: Letters from the East. It consisted mostly of excerpts from letters from soldiers reporting on conditions they encountered. The letters, of course, were carefully selected, but soldiers had credibility, and the booklet surely had an impact. Germans who read it, even if they had doubts about Adolf Hitler, were likely to conclude that National Socialism was surely preferable to Bolshevism. The book is divided into 9 chapters. I here translate several sections from each chapter. Wolfgang Diewerge, the author, produced at least five other Nazi anti-Semitic pamphlets.
