Archaeologists have been excavating a “new Great Wall of China” that stretches for over 4,000 kilometres.
The excavations on a medieval frontier garrison in Mongolia are flipping everything we thought we knew about ancient walls on its head.
The international dig has revealed that some colossal barriers stretching across the Eurasian steppe weren’t built to fend off invaders - as per legend - but instead to manage people, mark territory, and show off dynastic might.
The so-called Medieval Wall System (MWS) takes in Mongolia, China and Russia – and hows now being hailed as a forgotten sibling to the Great Wall of China. However, it may have had a different purpose.
“We sought to determine the use of the enclosure and the Mongolian Arc,” said Professor Gideon Shelach-Lavi from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, who’s leading the excavations.
“What was its function? Was it primarily a military system designed to defend against invading armies, or was it intended to control the empire's outermost regions by managing border crossings, addressing civilian unrest, and preventing small-scale raids?
“Considerable investment in the garrison’s walls, as well as in the structures within them, suggests a year-round occupation”, concludes Professor Shelach-Lavi. “Future analysis of samples taken from this site will help us better understand the resources used by the people stationed at the garrison, their diet, and their way of life.”
The team, part of a Mongolian-Israeli-American research project called The Wall, surveyed the 405km-long Mongolian stretch – known as the Mongolian Arc – and excavated a fortified enclosure.
What they found was very different to what they expected.
The “wall” running along the Arc turned out not to be a towering fortress, but rather a shallow ditch and a mound of earth – unlikely to stop an army but perfect for controlling mo *** Local Caption *** 47

Iran-The City Of Dwarves
An Iranian tourism activist visits a mud-brick structure known as the City of Dwarves, located on the western edge of the Lut Desert near the city of Kerman, 1,335 kilometers (830 miles) southeast of Tehran, Iran, on May 22, 2025. The City of Dwarves of Shahdad, which archaeological reports indicate dates back more than five thousand years, is one of the most mysterious ancient sites in Iran. It is located on the western edge of the Lut Desert, near the city of Shahdad in Kerman Province. This ancient city is known as the ''City of Dwarves'' due to its unique architecture and the small size of its houses, alleys, and living facilities. (Photo by Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto) -

FEATURE - Aus Forschung und Wissenschaft: 2.000 Jahre alte Fresken in einem grossen Bankettsaal in Pompeji entdeckt
**VIDEO AVAILABLE: CONTACT INFO@COVERMG.COM TO RECEIVE**
A newly discovered fresco in Pompeii is shedding fresh light on the mysterious Dionysiac cults of the ancient world - and how they depicted “wild” women who broke free of the male order.
More than a century after the famous Villa of the Mysteries was unearthed, archaeologists have revealed a strikingly detailed frieze depicting the procession of Dionysus, the god of wine.
The nearly life-sized fresco, known as a "megalography" due to its large-scale figures, was found in a grand banqueting room in Insula 10 of Region IX in central Pompeii. It spans three sides of the room, while the fourth side opens onto a garden.
The vivid artwork portrays bacchantes, or maenads, as both dancers and fierce hunters. Some carry slaughtered kid goats or wield swords while holding the innards of animals. Young satyrs, with their distinctive pointed ears, are shown playing the double flute. At the centre of the frieze stands a mortal woman accompanied by an aged Silenus holding a torch, suggesting her initiation into the Dionysiac mysteries—a cult promising rebirth and the possibility of an afterlife.
Explaining its significance, Gabriel Zuchtriegel said: “These frescoes have a profoundly religious meaning which, however, was also designed to decorate areas for holding banquets and feasts, rather like when we find a copy of Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam on the wall of an Italian restaurant in New York to create a little bit of atmosphere.
“Behind these magnificent paintings, which play with illusion and reality, we can observe the signs of a religious crisis that was affecting the ancient world, but we can also grasp the grandeur of a ritual that dates back to an archaic world.”
He also said the bacchante or maenad, “expressed the wild, untameable side of women,” who “break free from male order to dance freely” and take on traditional male pursuits like hunting.
Intriguingly, all the figures appear to *** Local Ca

A newly discovered fresco in Pompeii is shedding fresh light on the mysterious Dionysiac cults of the ancient world - and how they depicted “wild” women who broke free of the male order.
More than a century after the famous Villa of the Mysteries was unearthed, archaeologists have revealed a strikingly detailed frieze depicting the procession of Dionysus, the god of wine.
The nearly life-sized fresco, known as a "megalography" due to its large-scale figures, was found in a grand banqueting room in Insula 10 of Region IX in central Pompeii. It spans three sides of the room, while the fourth side opens onto a garden.
The vivid artwork portrays bacchantes, or maenads, as both dancers and fierce hunters. Some carry slaughtered kid goats or wield swords while holding the innards of animals. Young satyrs, with their distinctive pointed ears, are shown playing the double flute. At the centre of the frieze stands a mortal woman accompanied by an aged Silenus holding a torch, suggesting her initiation into the Dionysiac mysteries—a cult promising rebirth and the possibility of an afterlife.
Explaining its significance, Gabriel Zuchtriegel said: “These frescoes have a profoundly religious meaning which, however, was also designed to decorate areas for holding banquets and feasts, rather like when we find a copy of Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam on the wall of an Italian restaurant in New York to create a little bit of atmosphere.
“Behind these magnificent paintings, which play with illusion and reality, we can observe the signs of a religious crisis that was affecting the ancient world, but we can also grasp the grandeur of a ritual that dates back to an archaic world.”
He also said the bacchante or maenad, “expressed the wild, untameable side of women,” who “break free from male order to dance freely” and take on traditional male pursuits like hunting.
