Editor's note: Depending on your mail software, some urls may wrap which
will require you to rebuild the url at your end; if you get a 'file not
found', check to see if the url wrapped on you. Most urls should be active
for at least eight hours from the time of 'publicatio' .

Today's trolling results:

The New York Times has a feature on 'Sungbo's Eredo', a massive wall and
moat structure which once defended (apparently) a kingdom of the Yoruba
(thanks to Francis Deblauwe for the heads up):


<url:>


The Aberdeen Press and Journal has the latest installment of 'Bulldozers
and archaeological sites don't mix' (alas):


<url:>


EurkeAlert leads us to an ASU press release on discoveries at Teotihuacan
of late:


<url:>


David Rohl is back in the news, this time claiming to have discovered the
location of the Garden of Eden, according to the Boston Globe (watch the
wrap ... this is apparently a BG exclusive):

EXPLORATOR is an irregular newletter (posted every two-three days)
representing the fruits of the labours of 'media research division' of The
Atrium. Various on-line news and magazine sources are scoured on a daily
basis for news of the ancient world (broadly construed: practically
anything relating to archaeology or history prior to about 1700 or so is
fair game) and when a sufficient number of urls are gathered (usually a
minimum of three stories), they are delivered to your mailbox free of
charge! Those articles that don't expire, plus supplementary links
eventually find a home at:

Commentarium (news articles)



The Rostra (audio files)



A media archive of links of files that have previously appeared in
Commentarium or at the Rostra is currently under construction.
