Unsettling Discovery: 77 Headless Skeletons Found at Ancient Site

Unsettling Discovery: 77 Headless Skeletons Found at Ancient Site

It’s a real head-scratcher.Archaeologists are struggling to put together the pieces after 77 headless skeletons were discovered in a Stone Age gravesite in Slovakia, per a grisly study in the journal The Proceedings of The Prehistoric Society.“We must assume that these practices were embedded in completely different contexts of meaning than those of modern societies,” lead author Martin Furholt, a professor of archaeology at Kiel University, said in a statement, Popular Mechanics reported.The macabre caper dates back to 2022, when archaeologists excavated a 7,000-year-old settlement near Vrable that belonged to the Linear Pottery Culture (LBK), one of Europe’s earliest farming communities. One of the headless skeletons found in the ancient mass grave. K. Fuchs, T. Kuhl, N. Muller-ScheebelThis particular Neolithic site was bigger and more complex than its counterparts, boasting 350 house layouts, approximately 80 of which were inhabited during the society’s zenith. However, it also harbored a dark secret. While investigating the site, the scientists stumbled across a ghastly scene — 78 skeletons piled atop each other.All of the bodies were missing a head, save for the skeleton of a child that had been curiously placed among the adults. Archaeologists initially assumed that the grave’s inhabitants, who were buried soon after they died, must have been the victims of an act of violence such as war or human sacrifice.“The features clearly exhibit an intentional manipulation of the bodies,” noted Katharina Fuchs, a biological anthropologist at Kiel University. K. Fuchs, T. Kuhl, N. Muller-Scheebel“It may seem obvious to assume a massacre with human sacrifices, perhaps even in connection with magical or religious ideas,” posited Maria Wunderlich, Kiel University project leader, in 2023. However, through examining the remains, Furholt and his team concluded that the decapitated skeletons were not the result of a massacre but rather some mysterious ritual for which we lack context.The remains were found at a 7,000-year-old settlement near Vrable that belonged to the Linear Pottery Culture (LBK), one of Europe’s earliest farming communities. K. FurholtFor one, the skeletal markings suggested that the skulls were not haphazardly hewn using blunt instruments, but rather carefully extracted with sharp tools, researchers noted.“The features clearly exhibit an intentional manipulation of the bodies,” noted Katharina Fuchs, a biological anthropologist at Kiel University.Furthermore, the fossil forensicists didn’t find any jaw bones at the repository, indicating that the culprits meticulously removed the entire noggin in order to keep it intact. The discovery of vertebrae near a ditch wall further suggested that these were extricated with care post-decapitation.These pieces of evidence spawned several theories ranging from head-hunting practices to, perhaps most notably, a tradition intended to honor ancestors or deities.As headless interments were ubiquitous throughout Neolithic Europe, researchers concluded that these post-mortem decapitations were an established custom.Furholt said that interpreting these practices remains challenging as they’re rooted in systems of belief that differ drastically from those of modern societies. Researchers hope that further analyses of the skeletons and the artifacts interred with them will shed light on the relationships between the individuals and other aspects of this post-mortem ritual.

Samantha Busch's Heartfelt Signs From Beyond: What Happened After Kyle's Passing?

Samantha Busch's Heartfelt Signs From Beyond: What Happened After Kyle's Passing?

Samantha Busch is finding comfort where she can in the weeks following her husband former NASCAR driver Kyle Busch’s surprising death. “One of the greatest gifts these past few weeks has been hearing people’s stories about Kyle,” Samantha, 40, wrote via Instagram on Tuesday, June 16. “Every memory, photo, and message has helped me feel connected to Kyle in ways I can’t fully explain and made me want to share some moments that brought me comfort over these unimaginably hard weeks.” Kyle died on May 21 at age 41, just days before he was supposed to participate in a race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. A death certificate obtained by Us Weekly confirmed his family’s statement that he died after battling pneumonia, which progressed to sepsis. In addition to Samantha, he is survived by son Brexton, 11, and daughter Lennix, 4. His last Instagram post before his death was a celebration of Brexton’s birthday. “After Brexton’s birthday party, Kyle had kicked off his sandals in our bathroom, and we never moved them,” Samantha continued. “About a week after he passed, I had one of the hardest nights yet…I finally gave up on sleeping and walked into our bathroom. There, shining directly across Kyle’s sandals, was a rainbow. Not anywhere else in the bathroom, just across his sandals. I literally laid down on them and felt a bit of peace, like he was giving me a sign.” Samantha added that even though she understood the science behind the rainbow, she had never seen one in that room before. “The second moment happened at our church,” she wrote. “A bird was flying around during the entire service. At one point, it flew over to where I was sitting, tilted its head sideways, looked right at me, and then flew away. I immediately looked at my friend and asked, ‘Am I hallucinating? I haven’t been sleeping.’ She said, ‘Nope. I see it too.’” The bird returned later while everyone was praying. Samantha said she heard a noise that she believed to be someone’s phone until she opened her eyes and saw the bird by her feet. “I know some people will say it was just a bird and just a rainbow,” she said. “Maybe they’re right. But standing in the same church where we said goodbye to Kyle a few days earlier, and carrying a grief that still doesn’t feel real most days, it felt like more than a coincidence to me. It feels like God is reminding me that I’m not alone and that Kyle is letting me know he’s OK, that he’s close, and that somehow he’s still walking beside us.”

Emotional Tribute: NHL Star's Daughter Shares Heartfelt Goodbye

Former NHL star Kyle Calder was remembered in an emotional tribute by his daughter, Madison, after his death on Monday, June 15, at the age of 47.  “Dad, there will never ever be enough words in the world to describe how incredibly lucky I was to have you as my dad,” Madison shared via Instagram on Monday, June 15. “Never in a million years would I have thought this day would come. There will forever be a void in my heart, but forever a spot just for you.” She continued, “The father, husband, son, man, friend, coach, hockey player, and everything in between that you were is truly indescribable. The lessons you taught me, the strength you showed me, and the person you pushed me to become every single day — I carry all of it with me.” Kyle died after suffering “a brief illness,” according to the Associated Press. An official cause of death has not been publicly released. “Thank you for being my biggest fan through every stage of my life,” Madison added. “Thank you for loving me unconditionally. I would give anything for one more conversation, one more hug, one more “I love you,” or to hear your voice one more time.” Her post concluded, “I love you more than anything in the world to the moon and back infinitely. Save me a spot on the ice, Dad. I know you’re skating around in heaven cheering all of us on from above. Fly high ♥️��️��.” Kyle played 10 seasons in the NHL for the Chicago Blackhawks, Philadelphia Flyers, Detroit Red Wings, Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks. In 590 career regular season games, he scored 114 goals and added 180 assists. Former NHL player-turned-TV analyst Colby Armstrong left a comment for Madison about her father.  “I’ve known your father a long time,” Armstrong, 43, wrote. “I used to train every day in the summer with him in Saskatoon. He had such a laid back, loving, easy going way to him that made him so easy to be around. I’m going to miss him a lot and loved seeing these pictures of him with you guys.  He added, “I’m so sorry for you and your families [sic] loss, Madison. I’m going to miss my friend.” Former NHL player Daniel Carcillo commented, “Your dad’s warm and loving spirit will live on with thousands of people that he touched Madison, including me. Beautiful tribute to a wonderful man.”

Why Is Pizza Hut Selling for $2.7 Billion?

Why Is Pizza Hut Selling for $2.7 Billion?

Someone “outpizzaed” the hut.Yum! Brands said Tuesday it is selling Pizza Hut for $2.7 billion, after years of lagging sales at the pizza chain.Private-equity firm LongRange Capital has agreed to acquire Pizza Hut’s operations, excluding mainland China, for roughly $1.5 billion. Yum China Holdings will purchase operations in mainland China in a separate deal worth $1.2 billion.Yum! Brands on Tuesday announced it is selling Pizza Hut for $2.7 billion. Christopher SadowskiThe deals – which are expected to close in the third quarter – come as little surprise after Yum! launched a strategic review last November while Pizza Hut continually churned out weaker results than sister brands Taco Bell and KFC.Shares in Louisville, Ky.-based Yum! jumped 1.9% Tuesday after it said the sales will provide it with “the strongest path to maximize shareholder value” and allow it to focus on its stronger brands.With US sales at Pizza Hut falling for about two years, the chain has consistently lost market share to Domino’s Pizza – which snagged its title as the largest pizza-restaurant operator in the country in 2017.“Under LongRange and Yum China, Pizza Hut will be well positioned for future growth with ownership that brings deep expertise in the restaurant industry,” said Yum! CEO Chris Turner, who took the helm last October and argued for a sale of the pizza segment.Fast-food pizza chains have been ailing as cash-strapped consumers cut back and third-party delivery apps eat into profits. US sales across the category dropped 0.3% last year from 2024, according to market-research firm Technomic.As of 2025, Pizza Hut operated about 6,300 stores in the US, its largest market. It has nearly 20,000 locations worldwide across 108 countries.Earlier this year, Yum! announced it was closing around 250 underperforming US Pizza Huts. Papa John’s has been shuttering dozens of locations, too.In a last-ditch effort to turn around sales, Pizza Hut added flashy items to its US menus, including a Crispy Parm Pan Pizza, and launched new deals and a membership program.Pizza Hut has continually churned out weaker results than sister brands Taco Bell and KFC. NurPhoto via Getty ImagesIt also attempted to lean into fans’ nostalgia, bringing back its Book It! reading program. That rewards elementary schoolers with a free personal pan pizza for hitting reading goals.China, its second-largest market, has been a bright spot for Pizza Hut – which is the biggest casual dining brand in the country. It operates 4,375 restaurants in China, selling steak and pasta in addition to the mainstay of pizza.Yum! said it expects to rake in about $2.3 billion in net proceeds from both deals. It also anticipates one-time expenses of roughly $85 million through the rest of 2026 tied to the sales.LongRange, the private-equity firm acquiring Pizza Hut, earlier this year agreed to buy 24 Hour Fitness. It and also owns Batesville, a company that makes caskets and cremation urns.Yum! announced earlier this year it was closing around 250 underperforming US Pizza Hut stores. Christopher SadowskiPizza Hut was founded by brothers Dan and Frank Carney in 1958 in Wichita, Kan.It quickly grew into the largest pizza chain in the world, and in 1977, it was bought by PepsiCo.The soda giant spun off its restaurant business in 1997, combining Pizza Hut under the same holding company as Taco Bell and KFC.Over the past few years, Pizza Hut has moved away from its traditional, sit-down layout with a salad bar to focus more on delivery services – but has failed to win back customers en masse.

Dejona Mihali's Explosive Challenge to Sami Lushtaku: The Question Everyone's Asking

Dejona Mihali's Explosive Challenge to Sami Lushtaku: The Question Everyone's Asking

TBGazeta Minuti arbn · June 16, 2026 · Uncategorized Është ashpërsuar debati politik mes zyrtares së Lëvizjes Vetëvendosje, Dejona Mihali, dhe figurës së njohur të Sami Lushtaku, pasi Mihali ka reaguar me një deklaratë tejet të fortë publike, duke e sulmuar drejtpërdrejt ish-komandantin e UÇK-së me akuza dhe kritika të rënda.Në reagimin e saj, Mihali ironizoi fillimisht paraqitjen publike të Lushtakut duke thënë se “u lajmërua edhe bosi i Përpamiut”, duke shtuar se ai vazhdimisht qëndron “pas shpinës së Ganimete Musliu”, duke pretenduar se deputetja e PDK-së është ajo që çdo ditë kujdeset për mbrojtjen e emrit të tij në skenën publike.Më tej, Mihali theksoi se Lushtaku po e mban peng Partia Demokratike e Kosovës, duke pretenduar se ai dëshiron një parti “sa për vete”, vetëm për të mbuluar, sipas saj, “gjynahet dhe marifetet” që e kanë shoqëruar ndër vite.Në deklaratën e saj nuk munguan as akuzat personale, ku ajo përmendi edhe Aleksandër Mihalin, duke e mbrojtur figurën e tij dhe duke e krahasuar me Lushtakun, për të cilin përdori fjalë tejet të ashpra, duke thënë se persona si ai “i kanë dhënë vetes të drejtën të grabisin pasurinë e popullit për 20 vjet”.Kulmi i reagimit erdhi në fund, kur Dejona Mihali hodhi dyshime edhe mbi rolin e Sami Lushtakut gjatë luftës, duke e sfiduar publikisht me pyetjen provokuese: “Kur erdhe në luftë o zotëri? Në cilin muaj e vit?”Ky reagim ka ndezur debat të madh në rrjetet sociale dhe pritet të sjellë reagime të tjera në skenën politike kosovare, duke thelluar edhe më shumë tensionet mes eksponentëve të pushtetit dhe opozitës.

LVV Faces New Challenge: What Lies Ahead?

LVV Faces New Challenge: What Lies Ahead?

TBGazeta Minuti arbn · June 16, 2026 · Uncategorized Ish-deputetja e VV-së, Arbërie Nagavci, deklaron se “pas certifikimit të rezultatit të zgjedhjeve të 7 qershorit, prioriteti i vendit duhet të jetë krijimi sa më i shpejtë i institucioneve. Kosova ka nevojë për funksionalizimin e Kuvendit, formimin e Qeverisë, zgjedhjen e Presidentit/es dhe ecjen përpara me punët e shumta që presin zgjidhje”, shprehet ajo.Sipas saj, “qytetarët kanë votuar për institucione që punojnë, jo për bllokada e zvarritje. Zgjedhjet e reja mund të ishin shmangur. Mund të ishin shmangur pas zgjedhjeve të shkurtit. Mund të ishin shmangur edhe pas atyre të dhjetorit. Por veçanërisht pas rezultatit të fundit, është e qartë se qytetarët kanë folur me një zë të qartë dhe të përsëritur”.Ajo thotë se “tri herë me radhë është dhënë i njëjti mesazh: Lëvizja Vetëvendosje mbetet forca më e madhe politike në vend. Jo vetëm kaq, por mbështetja qytetare për Lëvizjen Vetëvendosje vazhdon të jetë më e madhe se ajo e tri partive tjera shqiptare së bashku”.Tutje, Nagavci thotë “në vend të reflektimit, disa zgjodhën bllokadën. Në vend të pranimit të realitetit politik, zgjodhën ta çojnë vendin në procese të reja zgjedhore, duke humbur kohë të çmuar institucionale dhe duke i kushtuar miliona euro buxhetit të shtetit”.“Sot, kur rezultati po konfirmohet sërish, bëhet edhe më e qartë se qytetarët nuk kërkojnë kalkulime politike, por përgjegjësi, stabilitet dhe punë. Mesazhi i tyre është i qartë: besimi fitohet me punë dhe mbahet me rezultate”, shprehet ajo.
