Read excerpt
A rare collection of early-medieval coins found by archaeologists in Rome has provided a window into a time when English travellers and expats had special rights in the papal city and thrived in their own vibrant Anglo-Saxon quarter. Historical records show that the English had their own area within the city, known as the Schola Saxonum.

Unsettling images reveal stark impact of humans on the environment | New Scientist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Do you have any idea what you’re looking at in the image above? It might look completely abstract at first glance, but this is, in fact, an aerial photo. The white cobwebby-looking bits are bubbles, the green is algae and the straight lines are the edges of tanks. This is the Kasslerfeld sewage-treatment plant in Duisburg, Germany, next to the Rhine river, which treats wastewater from nearby businesses and homes. “This is part of my series which illustrates environmental damage in a creative way
