A team of archaeologists recently discovered what they call the earliest depictions of a hunter-gatherer camp ever discovered. They said the primitive engravings they found are about 13, 800 year old.

According to the team, newfound etchings were discovered near the Molí del Salt rock shelter in northeastern Spain. The findings indicate that ancient people might have lived in dwellings that are very much similar to those of modern-day hunter-gatherers.

Researchers hope their findings could help shed some light on the lifestyle of the ancient people. It has been known that from about 15,000 to 9,000 year ago, ancient nomadic people kept returning to the Molí del Salt rock shelter.

A team of researchers using ESA’s XMM-Newton X-ray observatory found three massive filaments comprising hot gas that were flowing towards a cluster of massive galaxies.

The findings of the study published in the journal Nature this week showed that the discovery was the first ever unambiguous detection of gas in the cosmic web.

Study lead author Dominique Eckert of the University of Geneva, Switzerland, said in a statement that this was an unexpected discovery.

The object that the researchers studied during their study is Abell 2744, which has been nicknamed as the Pandora Cluster. The object comprises of at least four smaller components that appear to be merging, said researchers.

Space is full of mystery and everyday numerous events keep on taking place in the endless region of space. Recently a team of astronomers said that they were successful in finding the Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs).

Since the time when FRBs were discovered for the first time nearly a decade ago, these cosmic radio waves have been puzzling scientists. FRBs appear to come from the distant universe, but so far researchers were successful in gathering very few details about them.

The team associated with the finding said they uncovered an FRB after deeply studying the data from the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Green Bank Telescope (GBT) for more than 650 hours.

Restaurant chains Applebee's and IHOP are going to drop soda from their children's menu across the nation. While speaking to ABC News, Craig Hoffman, a spokesman for DineEquity, the group that owns Applebee's and IHOP, said that they believe this was a little step in helping parents while dining out, as parents know better what is the appropriate food and beverage choices for their children.

Applebee's and IHOP, restaurant chains, have decided to dump soda from their menus for children countrywide. A spokesman for DineEquity, the group that owns Applebee's and IHOP, Craig Hoffman told ABC News that according to them, this was a small step to assist parents while dining out as they can better determine the right food and beverage choices for their kids.

The University of Cincinnati released a migraines and asthma study on Monday, which has discovered that pre-existing asthma may be an early sign of chronic migraine attacks in the coming time.

The university said in a statement that the study’s findings were released online previous month in the journal Headache, a publication of the American Headache Society. The study contributors include researchers from the university, the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, the Montefiore Headache Center and Vedanta Research.

During the study, the researchers studied nearly 4,500 people who faced episodic migraines or less than 15 headaches every month in 2008. During their work, they analyzed data from the American Migraine Prevalence and Prevention Study.

On Tuesday, December 1, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a report, which showed that new diabetes cases in the United States have been falling, but that isn’t necessarily an indication that the epidemic is over.

After so many years of unparalleled rise, the numbers have finally shown promise and Americans seem to be headed for improved diabetes prognoses.

The federal agency issued a report showing that the rate of new cases has gone down from 1.7 million in 2009 to 1.4 million in 2014. This finding is supposedly the first maintained fall since 1990, when the endocrine disorder began to break out in the US.
