Peru is a country rich in history and culture, with many ancient civilizations that left behind fascinating traces of their lives and beliefs. One of these civilizations was the Lima culture, which flourished between 200 and 700 AD in the central coast of Peru, near the modern city of Lima. The Lima culture is known for its distinctive pottery, textiles, and architecture, but also for its unique burial practices. Recently, a team of archaeologists from the National University of San Marcos made a surprising discovery in Cajamarquilla, a significant archaeological site about 15.5 miles inland from Lima. They found a mummy, fully bound in ropes and with its hands covering its face, in an underground tomb that dates back to pre-Hispanic times. The mummy is estimated to be between 800 and 1,200 years old, which means it predates the Inca civilization that dominated the region in the 15th century. The mummy’s pose is not common among the Lima culture, which usually buried their dead in a si...

I have always been curious about meditation, but I never really gave it a try. I thought it was too hard, too boring, or too woo-woo for me. But recently, I decided to challenge myself and try something new. I wanted to see if meditation could help me reduce stress, improve my focus, and enhance my well-being. So, I downloaded a popular meditation app on my phone and signed up for a free trial. The app promised to guide me through the basics of meditation and help me develop a daily habit. It also had a variety of sessions to choose from, depending on my mood, goal, or time available. I decided to start with a 10-minute session called “Introduction to Meditation”. The app instructed me to find a comfortable and quiet place to sit, close my eyes, and breathe deeply. Then, a soothing voice started to talk me through the process of meditation. The voice told me to pay attention to my breath, notice any sensations in my body, and gently bring my attention back to the present moment wheneve...

Nigeria, Africa’s largest oil producer, has been struggling with the economic and social consequences of removing the fuel subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), also known as petrol. The subsidy, which was introduced in the 1970s to keep fuel prices low for consumers, had become a huge fiscal burden for the government, costing about $10 billion in 2020. President Bola Tinubu announced the end of the subsidy on May 29, 2023, during his inauguration speech, saying that "the Fuel Subsidy is gone!" The removal of the subsidy has led to a sharp increase in fuel prices across the country, reaching as high as 1000 naira ($1.00) per litre in some states, compared to 167 naira ($0.21) per litre before the subsidy was scrapped. This has resulted in higher costs of transportation, electricity, and other goods and services that depend on fuel. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the inflation rate rose to 32.7% in October 2023, the highest since 2017. The fuel price hike has...
