[00:00:01][music] A mummy from Siberia is covered in [music] strange markings.

[00:00:09]Researchers have deciphered them. New imaging methods have [music] allowed researchers to reveal previously unknown details of symbols [music] carved on the skin of a 2,500year-old mummy.

[00:00:24]The [music] remains found in Siberia belonged to a woman from the Pazaric culture.

[00:00:31]This has sparked a debate [music] about the ancient societies that inhabited this remote region of the world.

[00:00:38]Thanks to near infrared imaging [music] and 3D photoggramometry, it was possible to reconstruct [music] details that had remained invisible under the mummified skin for [music] centuries.

[00:00:51]Traditional archaeological methods did not provide [music] such precision in documenting patterns and techniques.

[00:01:00]The mummy [music] from the Alai Mountains represents the Pazaric culture, famous for its rich tombs and [music] refined art. Modern tools allowed us to peer deeper beneath [music] the skin's surface and digitally recreate the original decorations.

[00:01:19]As the authors of the study explain, [music] the tattoos of Pazaric mummies are of immense importance to Siberian archaeology related [music] to the Iron Age.

[00:01:30]Scientists are examining them from a broad stylistic and symbolic perspective, although more detailed study [music] of this practice has so far been hampered by the lack of access to highquality data. A [music] publication describing the latest work on this case and the conclusions reached has been published in antiquity. [music] Research has shown that ancient masters used both multi- needle tools and single needles to create tattoos. [music] This discovery challenges previous theories about the exclusive use of sewing [music] or in sizing techniques.

[00:02:10]The tattoos were primarily made using carbon pigments, [music] likely s.

[00:02:16]Most intriguing were the differences in [music] quality between the decorations on the mummy's left and right forearms.

[00:02:24][music] The tattoo on the right side is distinguished by greater attention to detail, [music] intricate composition, and use of perspective, which was rare in Pazaric art.

[00:02:36]Archaeologists [music] emphasize that this is the first time they have been able to distinguish [music] the contributions of different artists on a single tattooed body. The [music] precision of some designs was so great that achieving similar effects would be a [music] challenge even for modern tattooists with modern equipment.

[00:02:57]>> [music] >> This in turn leads to the conclusion that tattooing was considered thousands [music] of years ago not just a symbolic decoration but as a specialized craft, one that required [music] technical skill, aesthetic sensitivity, and formal training or practice. [music] The results suggest that tattoos served an important function during life. They [music] expressed identity, social status, and may have served to [music] tell stories.

[00:03:28]However, analysis of post-mortem skin incisions that intersect the decorations reveals a surprising [music] finding.

[00:03:37]Gino Kaspari, one of the research [music] team members on the case, explains that there is no indication that tattoos had religious or afterlife [music] significance.

[00:03:49]They were part of identity, status, [music] and perhaps storytelling.

[00:03:55]But once the person died, that chapter closed. [music] Seven tattooed individuals have survived from the early iron age of southern Siberia, [music] 9th to 2nd centuries BC, suggesting the practice was widespread in that time and region.

[00:04:14]Unfortunately, [music] climate change and thoring perafrost pose a real threat to such finds.

[00:04:22]This underscores [music] the urgent need to digitally document archaeological sites before they disappear [music] forever.

[00:04:30]For scientists, these discoveries are more than academic [music] curiosity.

[00:04:36]Kaspari admits that his research has allowed him to feel much closer to the people behind [music] this art, their methods of work, their learning of the craft, and the [music] mistakes they make. Thanks to new technologies, ancient [music] patterns have gained a second life.

[00:04:54]He claims to have found proof of Mosa's existence.

[00:04:59]Astonishing reports from Egypt. [music] Independent researcher Michael S.

[00:05:06]Bon has spent [music] eight years analyzing ancient texts from Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.

[00:05:13]His [music] findings are intriguing as he claims to have discovered the signature of the biblical Moses.

[00:05:20]If [music] confirmed, these findings could constitute the first archaeological evidence confirming the historicity of this [music] key Old Testament figure.

[00:05:31]Baron focused on inscriptions from Sarabit Elcardim, an ancient turquoise mine in Sinai.

[00:05:39]This site preserves texts written in the protosinatic [music] script considered one of the oldest alphabets closely related to biblical Hebrew [music] but with a touch of Aramaic.

[00:05:52]According to the researcher, two particular [music] inscriptions, Sinai 357 and 361 contain [music] the sequence of MS signs in arrangements suggesting personal signatures.

[00:06:08]The first contains [music] the phrase ZTMM, the second numm, which may be an [music] archaic spelling of the name Moses.

[00:06:17]The author of the sensational reports on this subject adds that in all four [music] cases the names appear to the right of the main inscription slightly lower. They either [music] descend from the main text or contain glyphs facing away from the main text.

[00:06:35]In his opinion, [music] this configuration suggests that these are the author's signatures.

[00:06:42]Baron utilized [music] advanced research techniques in his work, including highresolution photography, [music] 3D scanning, and direct analysis of casts at Harvard University's Museum of the Ancient Near East. [music] The inscriptions examined date back to the reign [singing] of Pharaoh Amenat 3 of the [music] 12th Dynasty.

[00:07:06]Baron's findings go beyond a potential signature. [music] He found evidence of a violent religious conflict. [music] One indication was the deliberate destruction of symbols of the goddess Balat [music] identified with the Egyptian athera and their replacement [music] with the veneration of the deity l associated with early Hebrew worship. [music] Another valuable clue is the traces of the burned temple of Balat at cereabit [music] elcardim.

[00:07:39]These also seem to support the theory of a religious cleansing. [music] Combined with phrases like nimosh, let us depart. The inscriptions may describe a narrative from before the mass exodus recorded almost in real time. [music] Based on analysis of the inscriptions, the researcher also hypothesizes [music] that the Egyptian vizier Anku may have been the historical model for the biblical [music] Joseph.

[00:08:08]Baron's thesis have been met with a sharp reaction from some in the scientific [music] community.

[00:08:15]Dr. Thomas Schneider of the University of British Columbia called them [music] completely unproven and misleading.

[00:08:24]He accused the researcher of subjective interpretation [music] of the science and theological bias.

[00:08:31]Dr. Peter Van Derine, [music] Baron's academic advisor, disagrees.

[00:08:38]He believes [music] the work is written in a rather critical manner and with a proper scientific approach.

[00:08:45][music] However, due to the two men's connections, it is difficult to consider such opinions as fully objective.

[00:08:54]Baron explains his [music] position, emphasizing his critical attitude towards his own findings.

[00:09:02]What if his [music] interpretations prove correct?

[00:09:06]Under such circumstances, [music] we would undoubtedly be able to speak of a breakthrough in biblical archaeology.

[00:09:12][music] For the first time, we would have material evidence suggesting that [music] the story of the famous Exodus may have roots in actual events, not solely [music] in oral religious tradition.

[00:09:27]If this were to happen, a considerable amount of time would undoubtedly have to pass.

[00:09:34]Baron's [music] 8-year effort deserves recognition, but the final assessment of [music] his findings should be left to an international panel of experts.

[00:09:44]Even if [music] it turns out not to be Moses's autograph, the documentation of early religious [music] conflict and Semitic writing in Sinai remains an extremely valuable contribution to our understanding [music] of antiquity.

[00:09:59]Cooperation between the energy, water, and chemical industries seems [music] crucial.
