Good dog! 🐾🐕😍

An amazing c. 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian mechanical dog. This leaping hunting dog opens and closes its mouth as if barking by using a lever below its chest. Beautifully carved from ivory. Photo my own.

There is enough DNA in the your body to stretch from the Sun to Pluto and back — 17 times. There are about 37.2 trillion cells in the human body whose DNA sums to a total length of 2×10¹⁴ meters — enough for 17 Pluto round-trips

From Bronze Age France, the exquisite and enigmatic gold torc from Guînes

A massive masterpiece of gold working, weighing 2.51 kg and measuring 92 cm in length, it is often referred to as a belt

Torc or belt? It’s unclear how it was worn 3000+ years ago
