1. Thousand-year-old Lombard warrior skeleton discovered buried with horse in Italy
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/2041811/Thousand-year-old-Lombard-warrior-skeleton-discovered-buried-with-horse-in-Italy.html
Extracts:

The skeleton, which was found in a park at Testona, near Turin, is of a 25-year-old Lombard who died of a fever. Unusually, his horse was buried alongside him.

The Lombards were a nomadic tribe of Germans who settled near the Danube and launched an attack on Italy in the sixth century.

Under the leadership of King Alboin, the Lombards stormed across the Alps in the spring of AD568 with an army of around 500,000.

Vicenza, Verona and Brescia were quickly conquered from the Byzantines, who were still suffering from battling the Goths. Lombardy was established across the whole of the north of the country, an empire which lasted for around 100 years.

3. Palm tree grown from 2,000-year-old date stone

From: Paul D Pruitt <socrtwo@s2services.com>
Yair,

Is the return of Judean Date Palm forests to Israel, the fulfillment of any prophecy?

Extract:
The ancient date palm differs from modern Moroccan, Egyptian and Iraqi varieties at around half of the 399 genetic markers the researchers looked at. It will be another couple of years before they know whether the plant can bear fruit ? and so whether they will be able to cultivate it. "We hope that one day, we'll be able to breed it," said Sallon.
