We’ve seen a lot of global challenges last year but the MENA region’s fintech ecosystem has been resilient and thriving. The past year has been great for Savii; we closed our pre-seed funding at the start of last year, launched our youth banking app and Visa cards in the UAE and rolled out our money management for teens workshops across Bahrain. As a woman in tech, I learned from a very early age that the only way to earn the respect of male peers and superiors, was to demonstrate my ability to deliver in whatever role I was in. I…
An Ohio woman with a passion for hunting deer, turkey and other game is being slammed online after sharing her prize kills, and how she got them, while racking up millions of views in the process.

Armstrong began hunting at 11, when she would watch her father hunt, and killed her first deer at 12. “I started off using a rifle and sitting on…

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania has yet to hit theaters, but some fans are already upset with the CGI on offer, continuing an unfortunate recent MCU trend.

Researchers have gotten a glimpse inside an 800-year-old pendant, which was discovered in 2008 in a medieval refuse pit in the Old City section of Mainz, Germany. They did so not by cracking open the heavily corroded relic, but with a high-tech solution: neutron imaging. The study was carried out by a team from the Leibniz Center for Archeology (LEIZA), which recognized the delicacy of the artifact. “Centuries of corrosion have heavily damaged the object as a whole and especially the lock mechanism,” said LEIZA restorer Matthias Heinzel. “Opening the pendant would have meant destroying it beyond all hope of…
Ancient Roman concretes have survived millennia, but mechanistic insights into their durability is an enigma. To solve the mystery, researchers from MIT and elsewhere analyzed the samples of Roman concrete from the city wall of the ancient city of Privernum, near Rome, Italy. Privernum was occupied as early as the 2nd century BCE through the 13th century CE, and the site was first excavated in the 18th century, with the most recent work performed from 1990 to present. For many years, researchers have assumed that the key to the ancient concrete’s durability was based on one ingredient: pozzolanic material such…
Amber exquisitely preserves the delicate organs of fossil flowers for millions of years. However, flower inclusions can be rare and usually do not exceed 1 cm (0.4 inches) in size. Symplocos kowalewskii, an exceptionally large flower from Baltic amber, measures 2.8 cm (1.1 inches) across — about three times as large as most flower inclusions. Amber preserves organisms three-dimensionally and with great fidelity, including arthropods, fungi, lichens, as well as minute inclusions of seed plants, such as leaves, flowers, catkins and pollen. These inclusions are otherwise rare from the fossil record and therefore can yield new insights into ancient ecosystems ranging…
The newly-discovered Viking hall was up to 40 m (131 feet) long and 8-10 m (26-33 feet) wide. The building had 10-12 oak posts that supported the roof. The posts were rectangular in cross-section and measured up to 50 by 90 cm (20-35 inches). “This is the largest Viking Age find of this nature in more than 10 years, and we have not seen anything like it before here in North Jutland, even though it has only been partially excavated,” said Dr. Thomas Rune Knudsen, an archaeologist with Nordjyske Museer. “And it’s not just a slightly larger house than average,…
Long-distance supply chains, vulnerable to disruptions from wars and disease outbreaks, may have formed millennia before anyone today gasped at gas prices or gawked at empty store shelves. Roughly 3,650 to 3,200 years ago, herders and villagers who mined tin ore fueled long-distance supply chains that transported the metal from Central Asia and southern Turkey to merchant ships serving societies clustered around the Mediterranean, a new study finds. Remote communities located near rare tin deposits tapped into an intense demand among ancient urban civilizations for a metal that, along with copper, was needed to produce bronze, researchers report in the Dec. 2 Science…
