Fostoria Glass Museum in Moundsville, West Virginia

August 2, 2024

The story of a glass company named after the town of Fostoria, Ohio, is told almost 300 miles away in Moundsville, West Virginia.

The giant’s ghastly foot can be found toes-out embedded in the earth...

Just as the Earth is waking up from winter, mature agave send flower stalks toward the sky. It signals the moment when the plant is at its most calorically dense. While many might associate agave with distilling, it is also a seasonal food, one of the earliest fresh foods that was available to the Indigenous people of the Mojave Desert. The Cahuilla of Southern California have been gathering and roasting agave hearts for at least 3,000 years, if not...

Durrës Byzantine Forum in Durrës, Albania

August 1, 2024

August 1, 2024

The Wild Tale of the Cerutti Mastodon,...

August 1, 2024

California’s highway State Route 54, skirting southeast of San Diego, doesn’t seem like it would be the catalyst for challenging some of the longest-held ideas about human evolution and our spread across the planet. And yet, in 1992, along SR 54’s ribbons of asphalt and exit ramps to malls, taco joints, and subdivisions, road-widening construction unearthed a fossil that could rewrite the human story—if scientists ever stop arguing about it. Here, 130,000 years ago beside the future site of...

One Man’s Quest to Restore the First-Ever...

August 1, 2024

It was 1953 and U.S. President-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower sat at a big mahogany desk working on a plan to end the Korean War. A small team of elite Washington staffers lounged nearby on mid-century leather sofas or in custom bucket chairs, smoking over hand-carved wood tables.
