Horses came to American West by early 1600s, study finds

A new analysis of horse bones gathered from museums across the Great Plains and northern Rockies has revealed that horses were present in the grasslands by the early 1600s. That's earlier than many written histories suggest. The timing is significant because it matches up with the oral histories of many Indigenous groups that they had horses of Spanish descent before the Europeans physically arrived in their homelands, perhaps through trading networks. The study was published Thursday in the journal Science and involved more than 80 co-authors – including archaeologists and geneticists, as well as historians and scientists from the Lakota, Comanche and Pawnee nations.

No Scandal At Scandal Point

This was the time when the soon-to-be-famous, Rudyard Kipling came to the ‘summer capital’ of India and its glittering social swirl. Well over a century and a half, after he first put pen to paper, part fiction, part fable and part reality, he created a world whose images are still with us.

Book Review: If I Could Tell You

Detail by detail the narrator takes us through his daughter’s school going, the tension of entrance interviews and all the things that anxious parents are aware of. That is when the book comes to life, the love of Oishi and her small world. The narrator covers the family things, a holiday with his wife, and their very Satyajit Ray-like meeting which led to love and marriage.
