With the constant traffic between the ancient worlds of Greece and Rome, these flatbreads made their way to what is now known as Italy, where they became known as pizza. The word was probably derived from the Latin word “pinsa,” which means “flatbread.”Pizza became a popular street food, not topped with anything, just eaten au natural. Typically young boys would walk around the city with small tin stoves on their heads, hawking their wares. The next step was brushing them with olive oil and fresh herbs and occasionally some cheese was added. But the big leap that turned into what we know as pizza was the introduction of the tomato in the 16th century.At first...

Israeli and Palestinian mothers birth a new generation of peace with healing lullaby music
In ancient times, prior to Abraham, women were the healers. They used their voices and rhythm as natural healers, with common archaeological evidence of these practices found in ancient Egypt, Persia, Iran, Syria, Palestine, Israel, and Lebanon. In Jewish tradition, Moses' sister, the biblical prophetess Miriam, was also a midwife. It is written in the biblical commentary that Miriam taught women (Targum Michah) and in the book of Exodus she leads them in rhythm and song praising the Divine for leading the Hebrews to safe passage from slavery through the treacherous parted seas. Over time, a wordless music modality was developed combining both an Eastern and Western approach to music.
Ancient Feathery Beast Solidifies Evidence That Birds Evolved From Dinosaurs
A new dinosaur species has been identified, and it's a birdlike creature (pictured) that's 15 million years older than the first bird. Haplocheirus sollers could be a common ancestor to both dinosaurs and birds. There's so little evidence from the fossil record during the time that birds evolved that scientists have debated whether birds evolved from dinosaurs, or independently. Haplocheirus, possessing some characteristics of a flightless bird and some of a dinosaur, is an important clue in solving this mystery. This creature suggests that dinosaur-like birds called therapods evolved from the same ancestor as modern birds. A group of Chinese paleontologists p...
