Researchers at Yale University have proposed a new model explaining the dramatic fluctuations in Earth's magnetic field during the Ediacaran Period, from 630 to 540 million years ago. Their analysis of rocks from Morocco suggests these changes followed a structured global pattern rather than random chaos. The findings, published in Science Advances, could improve reconstructions of ancient continents.

Scientists at Yale University have uncovered chemical evidence of opium in an ancient alabaster vase, suggesting that the drug was commonly used in ancient Egyptian society. The discovery raises the possibility that similar vessels from King Tutankhamun's tomb once contained opiates. This finding points to opium's role in daily life, medicine, and rituals across ancient civilizations.
