Michelangelo’s tomb.

Thutmose II was the fourth ruler of the illustrious ancient Egyptian 18th dynasty, which included Tutankhamun. Now, the location of his long-lost tomb, one of the last missing royal tombs, has been confirmed by the New Kingdom Research Foundation, a British-Egyptian archaeological team led by Piers Litherland. It’s the first pharaoh’s tomb to be discovered in Luxor for over a century.

Flagstones:

Archaeological research conducted on the prehistoric Dorset burial site known as Flagstones has revealed that it is the earliest known large circular enclosure in Britain.

The monument, located near Dorchester, has been redated to about 3,200 years BC—approximately two centuries earlier than previously thought—thanks to advanced radiocarbon analysis of some of the finds discovered there, including human remains, red deer antlers and charcoal.

The analysis suggests that Flagstones may have served as a prototype for later monuments like Stonehenge.
