Post-medieval child labor left Dutch children with damaged spines before adulthood
A new study of Dutch skeletal remains shows how hard child labor damaged growing spines between the 17th and 19th centuries. Researchers examined the remains of 143 children and young adults aged about 4 to 25 years from three Dutch populations dating from 1650 to 1850. The groups came from rural Middenbeemster and urban Arnhem and Delft...

A whale head was found on an Irish beach by a ten year old boy. But the find was remarkable in that it is about 3,000 years old, though dating is yet to verify it. However, the whale was a Cuvier's beaked whale, so the question how did it get on a beach in Ireland. They are normally found in the Azores, but never in Ireland, being a deep sea whale. Examination of the fossil will now be done to find out more. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly4zkpvl4wo -

A discovery of cave art in Ireland has led believers to think that early gather-hunters in Ireland originally came from Wales. Computer modelling help the researchers to find 28 caves that had the potential to contain cave art. This has led to the earliest recorded evidence of man in Ireland being pushed back. A land bridge at that time, would have helped them travel from Wales to Ireland. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y75dl0jpko -

The oldest known written complaint is a cuneiform tablet from 1750 BCE. A Babylonian merchant named Nanni wrote to copper trader Ea-Nasir: wrong quality goods, refused refund, poor treatment of his messenger. The tablet survived. Ea-Nasir's reputation did not. The complaint is every complaint. #history #archaeology

The first labor strike in recorded history was in Egypt, 1170 BCE. Tomb workers at Deir el-Medina walked off the job over late rations — grain, fish, vegetables. They sat down in the pharaoh's mortuary temple and refused to leave until they were paid. The foreman's report still survives. #history #labor #archaeology
