The location of Tharais. We have finally resolved

by

For decades archaeologists look at the Madaba mosaica fundamental map to understand the history of the Holy Land, asking a seemingly irresoluble question: where is the Byzantine city of Tharais? The settlement appears in his cartography with many others, but so far no one had been able to clarify what exact situation and much less locate their remains. Until now. On the MADABA map. The Basilica de San Jorge It is an orthodox temple raised at the end of the 19th century in Madaba, Jordan, less than 100 km from Jerusalem. If every year he receives a tide of visitors, it is not, however, for their architecture, their history or location. No. The key is its ‘roots’: the basilica was erected on the remains of an ancient Byzantine temple of the VI DC that stands out for a unique piece: Madaba’s mapa mosaic that offers the oldest cartographic representation (at least among the known) of the Holy Land. In the mosaic we identify the Dead Sea furrowed by fishing boats, several bridges in the Jordan River, Jericó, Belén, a detailed representation of Jerusalem with some of its most emblematic constructions … and, among other references, the ancient city of Tharais. That Figure in the Madaba mosaic gives us a clue of its relevance, but for decades historians have been circling an apparently irresoluble question: Where the hell was Tharais placed? Narrowing the fence. It may seem a minor issue, but for quite some time the exact location of the old Byzantine city warmed the academic debate. Archaeologists looked at Jordan, but without a clear idea where he could place. There were even those who spoke regions as remote as Dhat Rass. However, however, a team of researchers led by Musallam al-Rawahnehfrom the University of Mutahah, the discussion set out to settle To do so, the new methods of archaeological research, the valuable information of the Madaba mosaic map and above all the scattered clues on the ground. During their field studies west Karak archaeologists had noticed a gradual increase in ceramic fragments and architectural vestiges of the Byzantine era that were in their path. And that made them look towards a very specific point: the population of El-´iraq. When the pieces fit. “We discovered so many ceramic pieces near El-´iraq that we knew we were close to the settlement,” Professor Al-Rawahne points out in statements collected by The green compass. Not just that. In their favor they had the information of the mosaic of the Basilica of San Jorge. The place where they were looking for was much better adapted to the plane of the eighth century than the theory that Tharais placed in Dhat Ras. “That does not fit. On the MADABA map, Tharais appears near AI (today the population of Aiy). And there are no Byzantine churches there.” The Eureka moment. Convinced that they were on the right track, Al-Rawahne studied the area between 2021 and 2024, which allowed him to collect more and more blunt clues. In addition to mosaic fragments, tools or glassware, experts located a key reference: column remains, a door, mosaics … architectural vestiges that invite you to think of a Byzantine basilica that also fits with the image of Tharais that appears in Madaba. As remember Turkiye TodayDuring their exploration, archaeologists also identified ancient Greek and Latin funeral inscriptions that dated between the V and VII DC centuries, marks that revealed them from the presence of a Christian community in the area and finished convincing them that they had finally found the mythical Byzantine city. During their field work they also identified other interesting pieces, such as a circular oil press. Why is it important? For several reasons. The most obvious is that the finding of al-Rawahneh Zanja a priori the debate on the location of Tharais; But it is also that the location tells us about the history of the Roman Empire of the East in the region or the importance that Tharais had, which seemed to play a double role of religious center and enclave in a strategic commercial corridor. “The prominence of Tharais on the map of Madaba and the finding of a basilical church structure suggest that it served not only as an agricultural village, but also as a sacred site and commercial stop,” Comment The mutah teacher. “Defend heritage”. In addition to the remains of the temple, archaeologists have identified a oil mill, water mills and tools to crush grapes, which reinforces the idea that Tharais was an autonomous settlement. Experts now expect the finding, Posted in Specialized Magazine Gephyrahelp raise awareness about the importance of protecting the environment. “Our goal is not only to discover Tharais, but also to defend the protection of the rich cultural heritage of Jordan”, Recalca al-Rawahneh. The team He already warns that new excavations are needed to understand how people lived in settlement and what ties had with other cities of the empire.

We have been sending our location to space for 75 years without realizing it. It is now detectable in more than 120,000 stars

Deliberate attempts for Contact extraterrestrial civilizations, Like the famous Arecibo messagethey have not received an answer. But what takes the dream of a group of cosmologists are not our well -intentioned messages, but those who send without realizing all the airports in the world. An incredibly powerful beacon. We have been shouting at the cosmos for decades without even pretending, betraying our existence in more than 120,000 nearby star systems. A new investigation presented in the Royal Astronomical Society It reveals that the combined electromagnetic leakage of all our airports form a very powerful beacon. According to the study, the signal is so intense that a civilization with technology similar to ours could detect it at a distance of up to 200 light years. Civil and military aviation radars. Researchers at the University of Mercanster simulated how radar signals that are used to control air traffic spread in space. The conclusion is amazing: the combined power of civil aviation radars adds 2 × 10¹⁵ watts, a sufficient figure for a radio telescope to capture hundreds of light years. But the thing doesn’t end there. Military radars, although they have a accumulated power of less than 1 × 10¹⁴ watts, create a pattern that sweeps the sky like a lighthouse. This signal will seem clearly artificial for anyone who observes from interstellar distances. In fact, it can be up to 100 times more powerful than the background signals, depending on the location of the observer. Our accidental technofirma since 1950. While the detection potential is 200 light years, these radar systems only emit with a similar intensity Since the 1950swhich means that our unintentious signal has expanded for now about 75 light years in all directions. Our technofirma has already reached nearby star systems as next centauri (4 light years), the star of Barnard (6 light years) and au microscopii (32 light years), but we still have to wait another 125 years to spread to the maximum and be detected in a radius of 200 light years. There are two ways to take this. On the one hand, we are sending the entire neighborhood an unequivocal sign that there is intelligent life on Earth. Figures such as astronomer David Brin have been Very critical of the idea of “shouting to the cosmos” without first establishing a global consensus. It is an arrogant decision, he argues, because he could end up affecting all humanity. On the other hand, the study gives us an important clue to The search for extraterrestrial life: If there are other civilizations such as ours, perhaps the easiest signs to locate are not their messages, but the radars of their airports.

Madrid has the radar that most fine in Spain. We already know its location and where we have to be more careful this summer

by

3,440,655 speeding fines. Spain closed 2024 with a 4% increase in the number of sanctions for this reason. Associated European motorists (AEA) has carried out its annual report with DGT data to point to us which are the 50 radars that most fine in our country. This increase in the number of fines cannot be understood without the fact that there are more radars that fine in our country. Specifically, in Spain there are almost 3,400 controllers of speed that monitor that we do not exceed the maximum limits allowed. And those must add mobile radars and famous pegasus that watch from the air. In addition, we remember that in the AEA numbers of this report the fines imposed in the Basque Country or Catalonia are not collected, where traffic skills are transferred. The radar that is most fine in Madrid Given all this, AEA points out that the radar that most fine in Spain is at kilometer 20 of the M-40, the famous Circunvalación de Madrid. The cinemometer repeats in the first place but, perhaps because it is an old acquaintance, it has reduced its volume of complaints by 36%. In total, this controller has issued 74,873 sanctions for speeding, far from the 118,392 fines that it registered in 2023. The radar is not only in the Community of Madrid, since six others are part of the 50 most “multones” radars in Spain, being the province where the most controllers add up in this list. These are located in the following locations: Road M-40 PK 52: 33,057 sanctions. Road A-4 PK 13: 18,263 sanctions. Road A-2 PK 15: 15,713 sanctions. Road A-5 PK 12: 14,147 sanctions. Road A-4 PK 12: 13,722 sanctions. Road A-3 PK 48: 11,568 sanctions. What are the most fine radars? Although Madrid has the most fine of Spain and another six more radars appear in the list, Andalusia is the autonomous community that adds the most speed controllers to the list. In fact, according to AEA data, almost one in three fines processed in Spain have an Andalusian radar origin. In total, in 2024 they added 959,592 complaints, which represents 27.8% of the activity in the country, accumulating up to 14 cinemometers among those who most fine in our country. If we analyze by provinces, Malaga and Seville, with five and four radars among the 50 that most sanction in Spain are the two provinces (after Madrid) in which the most radars are located. As to Volume of complaints And despite the fact that Madrid has the radar that most sanctions, Castilla y León with 413,343 sanctions is the second autonomous community in which it is most sanctioned. And it is followed by the Valencian Community, with 366,360 complaints. As for the radars that most fine in Spain, these are the 10 that sanction: Autonomous Community Province Via PK Number of fines Community of Madrid Madrid M-40 20 74873 Andalusia Malaga A-7 968 67502 Navarre Navarre A-15 127 60878 Andalusia Seville A-381 74 54835 Andalusia Malaga A-45 128 49378 Balears (Illes) Balears (Illes) EI-600 9 39202 Andalusia Seville A-92 83 37616 Andalusia Malaga A-7 978 33358 Andalusia Malaga MA-20 10 33061 Community of Madrid Madrid M-40 52 33057 Photo | DGT In Xataka | How to know all the official locations of the DGT radars
