The burning is one of the most mysterious sites in Mexico. And their fire craters continue to baffle archaeologists

Mexico is a archaeological treasure And, although the Yucatan Peninsula be the one that usually monopolizes All eyes due to Mayan ruins and initiatives such as Mayan train for enhance tourismthe central area of Mesoamerica It is home to other relevant archaeological sites. One is the burned one, which is said to be the original place of The Aztecsand, although there are several mysteries associated with the place, a study He has focused on analyzing the enigmatic fire pits. It is not known if it is where the Mexicans were born, but they have discovered when they lit and ventured to decipher for what they served. Chicomóztoc. Located in a privileged central area of ​​Mexico, it seems clear that, due to its location, natural resources were abundant, being able to be a strategic area for nomadic peoples to supply. At some point in 300 AD A town settled in the placewhere what would later know as “the burned one” was founded. The site reached its peak towards the 800 AD, when it began to fortify strongly to compete against nearby locations, and took place until 1200 AD It is estimated that it was then when a progressive abandonment and, When the Spaniards arrivedthey found ruins with numerous fire traces. Legend has it that, because of this, they baptized the site as “The burned”And it was Francisco Javier Clavijeroin 1780, who associated the site with the mythological original place of the Mexica: Chicomóztoc. Part of the citadel and pyramid The patio of columns Archaeological zone. Located on a hill, the burned one has numerous architectural remains. Using mortar, stone and vegetable fiber, its inhabitants built a series of buildings whose purpose does not differ from that of many others Archaeological sites from Mexico. Thus, we have defensive structures such as a wall of four meters wide and up to six high, or one 70 -meter long ball courtbeing of the Longer Mexico. Also ceremonial buildingslike the votive pyramid About 12 meters high, the Hall of Columns or an Observatory that would serve to monitor and that could also have had astronomical functions. The function of the different elements is more or less clear, but there is something that has confined archaeologists for a long time: huge holes. The holes. The inhabitants of the burned were built in phases about the old structures, but something that stands out is that the recent analysis performed by archaeologists points out that the holes were used at all times. There are several, but they focused on five of them called from LQ1 to LQ5 and, through the Archeomagnetism techniqueThey have been able to identify when they were active. This technique is like reading a fossil compass that allows you to know how many years a clay or stone material has been very heated. When this occurs, internal minerals are oriented according to the Earth’s magnetic field At that time, being “recorded” the orientation forever. It is something that allows the rocks to be dated and find out when it was the last time that element was heated. Thus, they identified that the LQ4 and LQ5 holes were used in the apogee era, between 675 AD and 903 of the LQ1 was lit between 927 AD and 1101 AD and the LQ2 showed more confusing data, but they estimate that it can be the oldest. And from LQ3 no data were obtained. Mystery. Several theories have been established on their use, some pointing to harvesting ceremoniesothers linked to change of stations and also those that suggest that they were torches for night ceremonies. This mystery will be difficult to solve, but as we read in The green compassLQ1 is the one that has caught the attention of researchers. “Its date coincides with the collapse of the site, so perhaps the rituals persisted until the end, as a symbolic farewell,” they say. In addition, it is the closest to the votive pyramid. The different dates of use of the holes, however, reinforce that theory that abandonment was gradual and that, even in the last moments, “the fire could be a way to keep the memory of the place alive.” As we say, it will be difficult to clarify What kind of ceremonies were celebrated In them, but the next step of the project is to study the rest of holes that have not yet been excavated.

LaLiga IPS blockages are based on a mysterious judicial sentence. Rootedcon is trying to legally cancel it

The War between LaLiga and Cloudflare The IPS blockages ordered by LaLiga to fight against illegal soccer matches leave thousands of websites, but for a few days there are an effort specifically aimed at trying to end the problem. Rootcon against the sentence in which LaLiga is shield. Those responsible for Rootedcon They organized two weeks ago an initiative to collect data and testimonies of those affected. These are companies or people who have seen how their websites – totally legitimate – have been harmed and have ceased to be temporarily accessible during those IPS blockages. That may also have caused economic losses, but the situation persists without being a solution on the horizon. Legal Arthimañas. That is precisely what Rootedcon is trying to do, which has announced that he has raised: “An incident of nullity in the Commercial Court number 6 of Barcelona, ​​against Judgment No. 310/2024, dated December 18, 2024, achieved through legal arthingswhich is used by the League to force operators to block and restrict Internet access in their fight against “piracy” at the request of the football company. This ruling, and the way in which it is being used, violates fundamental rights and limits free access to information, a right that we consider unnegotiable. “ Request for nullity for the sentence. In Xataka we have contacted those responsible for Rootedcon, who have explained that this process is not a legal lawsuit as such, but a petition so that this sentence on which LaLiga is supported is annulled. This sentence has been difficult to locate, and according to rootedcon it should be annulled by violating fundamental rights. There is damage to third parties. As we already explained, the procedures in which LaLiga is shielded They are debatable at the legal levelespecially because the Article 21 of the Civil Procedure Law (LEC). According to this text, the search should be rejected when it involves damage to third parties not demanded in the procedure. Here many affected have not demanded have been –all economically harmed companies and individuals-, but still the measures (the IPS blocks) have been executed anyway. Defense of Freedom of Expression. For rooted with this conflict is being used “to justify actions that limit access to content in the network” and that constitutes “an injustice against freedoms of expression and information.” As they explain in their communication, this blockade “is massive and not only affects the assumptions cybercriminals, but economically impacts the activity of many organizations and companies.” There are currently more than 140,000 websites using Cloudflare services. Not everyone has been affected by the cuts, but of course a part of them. Source: Builtwith. About 140,000 affected potentials. An analysis of the IPS blocked in Cloudflare shows how these IPS are being shared at the moment For more than 140,000 websites. Not everyone is inaccessible, of course: it depends on the services that these websites have hired with this company. However, in that list are all kinds of companies: from the media (El País, El Mundo, La Vanguardia, RTVE) to large companies such as Carrefour, Decathlon, Idealist or Pccomponent) and of course websites of more modest projects that are also losing business opportunities for those blockages. And among them, football team websites. Ironically, lalaiga -instructed locks They are also affecting to the websites of First Division equipment. A systems administrator called Jaume Pons has been tracking these blockages for some time and last weekend he warned how the Girona FC online store It was inaccessibleas had also happened to the Valencia CF website either To Kelmesponsor of the Spanish RCD. The legal battle continues. Blocks too. The situation remains worrying for users and companies that legitimately use Internet services in our country. They have become involuntary victims of a Legal battle between LaLiga and Cloudflare that at the moment does not seem to have a solution. The latter began legal actions against LaLigabut there have been no changes in the way of acting of LaLiga, which continues to order these blockages and affect thousands and thousands of users.

We have been looking for the mysterious ancestor town of the Indo -Europeans. We have a new track in DNA

We know that Latin languages ​​have their common origin in Latin peoples such as the one that ended up forging the Roman Empire. We know that Germanic languages ​​had their origin in the Germanic tribes that at that same time inhabited northern Europe. But these two language families have a common trunk that goes back to prehistory, the language protoindoeuropeo. Now, who spoke this language? CLV. A new study He has discoveredthrough a genetic analysis in several archaeological sites in Europe, a new prehistoric group, an archaic society that they have called people of the Caucasus-Bajo Volga or CLV (Caucasus-Lower Volga). As the study concludes, this town could be linked to the protoindo -European language and with Its expansion. The protoindoeuropeo. The protoindoeuropeo (foot) language is the “common ancestor” of numerous contemporary languages, including Spanish and the rest of languages ​​spoken in the Peninsula (except Basque). A list that includes from English to Persian, through Russian and Greek. It is estimated that about half of the world population speaks languages ​​with this origin. This language would have been the speech of one or more prehistoric peoples of the border region between Europe and Asia. The migrations starring this group would have given rise to the speakers of this language ending their linguistic imprint in much of Eurasia. And more than linguistics, also genetics. From Yamnaya to Clv. Genetics had already given us important clues about these peoples, allowing us The so -called Yamnaya culturea population that would have inhabited the steppes north of the Caspian between the years 3,300 and 2,600 before our era. These analyzes had focused on this culture as probable vector of Indo -European expansion around the year 3,100 aec But there was a problem with its own name: the Anatolias languages, a group of languages ​​already extinct among which was included, for example, the hitita. These languages ​​would have been the first to break down from the common Indo -European trunk, before acquiring “steppe features.” This implied that this separation would have occurred before the arrival of Yamnaya culture and that there should be a protoindo -European group prior to this from which both anatolias languages ​​arose and those that would later derive in the Greek, Latin or Celta. Now, the new Study points to the people of the CLV as possible common ancestors of both. More than 4,000 years ago. All thanks to genetics. The new work studied the DNA of 435 individuals found in various archaeological sites in Eurasia, covering a period between the years6,400 and 2,000 AEC the details of the study were broken down In an article Posted in the magazine Nature. Missing link. Genetic analysis pointed out that Yamnaya’s group would have inherited about 80% of its ancestry of the CLV population, which in turn would have legacked about 10% of its ancestry to the anatolians. This makes this mysterious group the common ancestors of the populations that initiated the expansion of Indo -European languages ​​during the Copper Age.
