The Associated Press: Searchers find remains of... →
The Teutonic Knights featured heavily in a fantasy book I started sketching out once, as morally dubious religious maniacs (is there any other kind) - and a very schlocky idea has just occurred to me about Eastern European pagan sorcerors (vampires, even?) having to defend themselves against the rampaging Christians (a sort of Seven Sorcerors, perhaps)

Ananova - Swiss watch found in 400-year-old tomb →
So, I know that since its on Ananova it is, categorically, a lie and probably just text made up to go with a picture someone found on the internet, but still the pulp tugs at my soul.

These reconstructions always seem pretty pointless to me - and surely it can only be the Daily Telegraph that’s at all amazed to discover that Cleopatra was black?
