New #pterosaur species discovered in previously overlooked specimen of dinosaur regurgitalite. The discovery also offers a glimpse into ancient food chains in the region. The regurgitalite is fairly clear evidence of pterosaurs serving as prey to larger dinosaurs. https://phys.org/news/2025-11-pterosaur-species-previously-overlooked-specimen.html #dinosaurs #globalmuseum #fossils

Delightful detail from the Roman “unswept floor” mosaic by Heraclitus, showing a mouse nibbling a walnut. Superb use of darker tiles for subtle shadow effect! 2nd century AD.

A German family has lived in the same place for 3,000 years Scientists have discovered that the Huchthausen family from the village of Förste (Lower Saxony) has lived there continuously for around three millennia, Bild reports. DNA analysis showed that the ancestors of Manfred Huchthausen lived just two kilometers away — in the Lichtenstein Cave, where archaeologists found human remains buried around 1000 BC, along with bronze jewelry, animal bones, and traces of funeral pyres. #globalmuseum

Scientists discovered the world’s largest spiderweb, covering 106 m² in a sulfur cave on the Albania-Greece border. Over 111,000 spiders from two normally rival species live together in a unique, self-sustaining ecosystem—a first of its kind. @Rainmaker1973 #globalmuseum #spiders #science

Discovered in 19th Century Toledo, Spain, a city famed for its master swordsmiths, this artifact is a marvel of concealed #weaponry. Crafted with exquisite skill, it features a flexible, double-bladed rapier ingeniously housed within a #silver ring snake sheath. This design allowed the weapon to be worn discreetly as jewelry, its deadly nature hidden in plain sight. @histories_arch #globalmuseum

Ever seen witches’ butter? It’s found in forests around the world growing on dead branches, where it feeds on other #fungi. Researchers are studying it for the potential medicinal value of its bioactive compounds, including possible anti-inflammatory & antiallergic properties.
