  • Shoe that lay in prof's office is nearly 6,000 years old

  • The snowshoe was just a few thousand years older than thought. Photo: Roman Clara/Bolzano regional govementA snowshoe discovered over a decade ago in Italy’s Dolomite mountains and previously thought to belong to a nineteenth century cattle farmer is actually nearly six thousand years old, it has been revealed. The shoe was found in 2003 in the melting snow of Gurgler Eisjoch glacier by Simone Bartolini, a cartographer for the Military Geographic Institute in Florence. Bartolini was mapping the Austrian-Italian border in South Tyrol, a German-speaking area of northe Italy.  Assuming the shoe to be about a hundred years old, Bartolini displayed the shoe in his office as a memento. He only realised that it was much older than previously thought after discussing it with an archaeologist colleague.  Radiocarbon dating by two separate labs now shows the shoe dates from 3800-3700 BC. This makes it up to 600 years older than the famous ice man Ötzi, who was found in 1991 just seven,shoe lays,shoe layaway,shoelaces styles,shoe layers,shoe layout,shoelaces online,shoelaces tricks,shoelaces models,shoe lays design,shoe lays tie ...ادامه مطلب

  • Eurogroup chief plays down Italy's banking woes

  • Italian Minister of Economy and Finance Pier Carlo Padoan (L) talks with Dutch Finance Minister and president of Eurogroup Jeroen Dijsselbloem. Photo: John Thys/AFPEurogroup head Jeroen Dijsselbloem on Monday said there was still time to solve the crisis affecting banks in Italy that is raising fears of new dangers to the eurozone economy. "It is not an acute crisis so that also gives us some time to sort these things out," said Dijsselbloem, who leads the group of 19 finance ministers from EU countries that use the euro. Fears are rife on the financial markets that Italy could cause a retu of the eurozone debt crisis if it does not address the €360 billion ($398 billion) in bad debt sitting in its national banks.   Markets have tued sour on several Italian banks, most notably Italy's number-three lender and the world's oldest bank, Banca Monte Paschi.   The bad debt predicament poses political as well as economic difficulties for Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, who must obey new eurozone rules which limit the bailing out of banks through public money unless investors are required to bear part of the burden.   "The rules... are clear and they are strict," Dijsselbloem, who is also Dutch finance minister, told reporters.   "They make it very clear on when there needs to be a bail-in and who needs to be bailed in and in what order," he said, using the technical term for those who will incur losses if a bank in the eurozone should fail.   But, he added, these problems need to be addressed "gradually".    Italian Finance minister Pier Carlo Padoan insisted savers in Italy "will be protected by the Italian govement."   Rome "is in the process of putting in place precautionary measures that will only be used if necessary," Padoan said.   The Italian govement, desperate to avoid a public backlash which could also handicap a key referendum on constitutional reforms later this year on which Renzi's political fate hinges, is extremely wary of angering the country's army of small, ...ادامه مطلب
