On this day, 5 May 1818, Karl Marx was born in Trier,

On this day, 5 May 1818, Karl Marx was born in Trier, Germany. Living until the age of 64, Marx was a journalist, revolutionary socialist, philosopher and economist, and one of the most influential figures in world history.  He inspired hundreds of millions with his works, including Capital which, over a century later, remains the most incisive critique of the capitalist system.  Though his wife was from a wealthy background, Marx and his family often lived in abject poverty, and four of their children died in infancy. His children who survived to adulthood all became socialist activists in their own right, including his eldest daughter Jenny who also died before him. Despite his often difficult circumstances and the tragedy in his personal life, Marx was also well up for a laugh. For example, his friend and biographer Wilhelm Liebknecht recounted an evening pub crawl in west London in which he, Marx and another German friend, Edgar Bauer, drunkenly began ridiculing "English s...

The ‘King of Stonehenge' -

Image
The ‘King of Stonehenge' - the grave of the Amesbury Archer is one of the most important discoveries in Europe. Found near Stonehenge, the burial is over 4000 years old. It is one of the earliest bell beaker graves in Britain.  The archer was 35–45 years old when he died and placed in a wooden chamber beneath a low mound.  His left kneecap was missing which would have caused him to have a bad limp.  As a result, he had a straight left leg that swung out to the side while walking, and he likely experienced constant pain from a bone infection.  Tests on the enamel of his teeth indicate that he grew up in central Europe, but it is unclear how long he lived in Britain. He likely spent his childhood in the Alps region, specifically in Switzerland, Austria, or Germany. The discovery of the Amesbury Archer is significant because he is the first example of a powerful elite. His grave contained an unusually large number and variety of objects.  They include five beaker p...
