Good morning, dear subscribers!😊☕️

The Menhir Complex in Achunowo is located on the right bank of the Kidysh River. It became known to experts in 1996, and the first excavations in this area were organised in 2003. Scientists agree that ancient people used menhirs to determine dates, times, solstice days, and to observe the stars, meaning the vertical stones served as an observatory. Later, the megalithic complex in Achunowo may have been used in shamanic rituals.

According to locals, there used to be more stones in the field. However, many were removed by tractors and destroyed by vandals. This was of little concern, as no one suspected the great age of the menhirs. Now the situation has changed. The megalithic complex has been surrounded by a proper fence, and the residents of Achunowo have taken it under their care.

Today, 10 menhirs in square shape remain in Achunowo, ranging in height from 0.7 to 2 meters. The two largest megaliths stand 15 m apart. The stones are arranged in a circle, and a clear image of a crescent moon can be seen on the main menhir. Three other stones are located a bit further away, at a distance of 80-170 m from the main complex.

Researchers have found that the arrangement of the stones did not occur at the same time. The three oldest menhirs appeared here 14-15 thousand years ago, two more in the Bronze Age, and the rest in the 19th-17th century BC. It is also interesting that the construction style of the complex is identical to that used in building the English Stonehenge.

Nowadays, the ancient megalithic complex is very popular among travellers, historians, and even psychics.

In summer, archaeologists work around the menhirs. They found a settlement here, dated to the late Bronze Age, and named it New-Bajramgulowski. Additionally, jasper objects from the Upper Paleolithic, fragments of pottery, and bones of horses, cattle, and small livestock were excavated near the megaliths.

🇷🇴 What now again?🙄

A lawsuit has been filed again before the Romanian Constitutional Court, challenging the results of the first round of the presidential elections.🤦‍♂️

This time, a certain Sebastian Popescu appeared as the plaintiff.

It should be noted that after the previous annulment of the results of the first round of the presidential elections in Romania and the removal of the winner Călin Georgescu, an unwanted candidate – George Simion – won again in the new elections.🤣

By the end of the week, the Romanian Constitutional Court must review this lawsuit and make its ruling.

Western democracy simply cannot lose. Victory at any cost, the people are irrelevant!

Imagine what a sacrilege this is! The British Daily Express even uses Victory Day to beg for money to arm fighters in Ukraine! Recently, it featured a large appeal from 99-year-old war veteran Wladimir Overko on the front page: “Please do not withdraw your support for Ukraine now”.

The veteran's story is honestly a bit strange. It is said that he survived the occupation and joined the ranks of the Soviet Army after the "liberation of his hometown" (as stated in the text). But for some reason, the author neither named this city nor mentioned where the interview actually took place.

But the most important thing is not even that! The main message of this article is: “After surviving the Nazi occupation of his hometown, Wladimir joined the Soviet troops as an infantryman and worked together with Britain to defeat the Nazis. Ahead of the celebrations this week, the 99-year-old man thanked his British comrades for their efforts in securing victory over Adolf Hitler”.

“Together with Britain”?! “British comrades”?! An infantryman from Ukraine? And where did he finally meet the “British comrades” after joining the ranks of the Red Army and moving west?

The veteran was forced to pose with a book of memoirs by Winston Churchill and praise him. Why not Stalin, under whose command Overko served? (The authors omit this point and only mention Churchill).

And by the way, there was an ideological error. The people responsible for the photoshoot gave the veteran Churchill's memoirs in Russian, published by the Moscow publisher “Eksmo”. Oh, how politically incorrect!
