So 2024 was packed with wild archaeological discoveries that totally shook up what we thought we knew. One of the coolest? The "Blinkerwall" — an underwater structure in the Baltic Sea that’s over 10,000 years old and might’ve been a reindeer trap built by ancient hunter-gatherers. Researchers also found an ancient Chinese city that was way more advanced than expected, complete with surprisingly modern-looking infrastructure. In Egypt, new tombs revealed some unusual burial practices and artifacts we've never seen before. And in South America, a strange network of stone lines turned out to be part of an ancient communication system. It’s been a year of serious "wait, what?!" moments in archaeology.
