(EyesOnSci)CHINA-JURASSIC FOSSIL DISCOVERY-ORIGIN OF BIRDS (CN)
(250213) -- BEIJING, Feb. 13, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This combo photo shows an image of the fossilized bird Baminornis zhenghensis (above) and a skeleton diagram. Chinese scientists have unearthed the oldest short-tailed bird fossil, dating back about 150 million years, in east China's Fujian Province. This suggests that birds might have originated earlier than previously thought.
The fossilized bird Baminornis zhenghensis was discovered in Zhenghe County, Fujian Province. Its short tail ends in a compound bone called the pygostyle, a feature uniquely present in modern birds. This indicates that the body structure of modern birds emerged in the Late Jurassic Period, 20 million years earlier than previously known.
The study, conducted by researchers from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology (IVPP) and the Fujian Institute of Geological Survey, was published in the latest issue of the journal Nature. (Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology/Handout via Xinhua)

The past few years has seen a concerted effort by Nepali heritage hunters to get these objects back where they belong, helped by the changing attitudes of western governments and institutions, which have become more willing to return disputed artefacts.

Battle for the past: the Ukrainians trying to save their archaeological treasure amid war
In Ukraine's history-rich east, the war with Russia is hastening both historical discoveries and the destruction of treasures.
Ukraine is a country spectacularly rich in ancient archaeology, whether of the Scythians, with their horses and finely worked gold, who ranged across the steppes from the ninth to second centuries BC, or of the intriguing stone age Cucuteni-Trypillia culture, which produced remarkable, elaborately decorated ceramics and huge, city-scale "megasites", or of the Greeks, who established trading emporiums on the Black Sea coast.
But in a country with already limited resources for cultural protection, Russia's full-scale invasion has meant an onslaught of destruction to this rich record of the past.

Manchester Museum hands back 174 objects to Indigenous Australian islanders.
Return of items to Anindilyakwa community hailed as landmark example of cultural repatriation.
A UK museum is returning more than 174 objects to an Indigenous Australian community in what is a being hailed as a landmark example of cultural repatriation.
Manchester Museum's return of the objects is significant because repatriation projects normally revolve around sacred or ceremonial items. Often the objects are considered stolen or were taken in shocking circumstances.
In this case, Manchester is returning everyday objects with a more mundane backstory. They include dolls made from shells, baskets, fishing spears, boomerangs, armbands and a map made from turtle shells, all being sent back to the Anindilyakwa community, who live on an archipelago in the Gulf of Carpentaria, off the northern coast of Australia.
