A new 2,159-sq-km corridor in Ecuador now links high-elevation Andes ecosystems with the lowland Amazon. This "altitudinal connectivity" between Llanganates National Park and Yasuní Reserve is vital for species migrating in response to climate change and habitat loss.

Ce qui me frappe, c'est le nombre équivalent de puits et de tombes à Hegra.
Le motif architectural surplombant les tombes, symbole d'accès au monde souterrain, évoque l'accès à la nappe phréatique et aux canaux souterrains.

This cultural linguistic hypothesis of a symbolic toponymy that contains the Alef hieratic character related to the Faiyum's dual Dja specificity allows us an independent reading of a hypothetical first consonant.
Taking into consideration Amenemhat III's legacy in the history of the Faiyum and the fact that this historical note is inscribed on the reverse of the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus, the toponym might only be related to the Faiyum through its specificity to the Dja-Dja Gates.

Tonight's 'wolf' supermoon appeared to me behind a tall fir tree on the mountain ridge, split in two along its entire height by this majestic tree. Unfortunately, I was unable to capture this apparition.
Then Jupiter came.

Amenemhat III as a priest, evidenced by the leopard skin and paw over both shoulders. He has a heavy and unusual haircut and a real beard. The high cheekbones, wrinkled face, and bitter, pouted mouth identify the statue as belonging to the 12th Dynasty ruler, King Amenemhat III. He is wearing the Menat necklace. This statue shows highly individualistic facial features, which goes against the usual idealizing tendencies. The torso of a sculpture of the king portrayed with the semblances of a primordial priest was discovered in the ancient capital of Faiyum, Crocodilopolis. The face of the monarch is framed by a bulky haircut, seemingly Archaic in style, that falls heavily onto his shoulders in braids; traces of the missing uraeus serpent remain on his forehead. Nor has the false beard survived, but finely engraved indications of a real beard can be seen on the king’s chin. Egyptian Museum, Cairo. JE 20001
He made the Black Pyramid of Dahshur and the Hawara Pyramid, the Labyrinth of Egypt, achieved the excavation of the Lake Moeris and the Great Canal, the temple of The living Renenutet of Dja, the temple dedicated to Sobek at Kiman Faras, made the original version of the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus...

In Ecuador, the Kichwa Sani Isla community and fStop Foundation are using high-resolution camera traps — some 40 meters up in the canopy — to document local wildlife.
Since Feb, they’ve recorded at least six jaguars, signalling a healthy ecosystem. Ecotourism at Sani Lodge helps protect the forest.
Même si l'éruption du Thera, coïncidant avec l'apparition du culte de Iah dans la Seconde Période Intermédiaire en Égypte, est antérieure de plus d'un demi-siècle à l'avènement du Nouvel Empire, elle pourrait toutefois en être directement la cause par le dérèglement climatique généré par son ampleur
Les conséquences dans l'Europe médiévale de l'éruption du Rinjani en Indonésie mettent en perspective les bouleversements climatiques du siècle des Ahmosides relatés notamment dans la Stèle de la Tempête à la suite de l'éruption du Thera, cet autre événement volcanique majeur avec un impact global.
