In 1906 an arch bridge over the Soča River was built, which today connects Slovenia and Italy. The bridge is the longest railway bridge in the world, at 220 meters long, and the second largest stone bridge. The architects of the structure were Rudolf Jassner and Leopold Orli. Originally the bridge consisted of four and a half thousand stone blocks, during the First World War, it was blown up by the Austrians, and was restored in 1927. In 1985, the government of then Yugoslavia and the Society for the Protection of Monuments took the bridge under protection and declared it the national treasure of the country.

2021-12-29 17:37:53 Have you ever looked closely at the mountains of the Abkhazian coast? I am not hinting at anything, but the spoils do not have clear facets, and nature does not build identical "pyramids" by the force of wind and water. Under similar hills were the pyramids of Mesoamerica, so now look many pyramids of China.
Have the officials ever had any desire to dig into the suspiciously flat edges of these "natural formations"? Открыть/Комментировать

2021-12-29 12:07:54 Did mammoths go extinct 10,000 years ago? In October, Naked Science wrote about a study published in Nature. Mammoths on Taimyr survived until 1900 BC, on Wrangel Island until 1700 BC.

OK, there are no humans, no large predators on the islands. But scientists at McMaster University in Canada, the British Southampton and the American Museum of Natural History took samples in Canada, showing that mammoths existed as early as 5,000 years ago, that is, when the Pharaohs ruled in Egypt.

They cut the extinction date of the species in half. Shall we wait until they find a living specimen somewhere on the islands? Открыть/Комментировать
