New archeological discovery in the central Mexican state of #Puebla. Corroborado por expertos de la @INAHmx - Antigua observatories en el Estado de Puebla, #Mexico. No veo la hora de visitarlo. #Cultura

De buenas noticias y sorpresa nos llenan las investigaciones en los sitios arqueológicos de nuestro país. El Instituto de Antropología e Historia corroboró esta semana la existencia de un observatorio solar prehispánico, de más de 2,500 años, en Teteles de Ávila Castillo, en la Sierra Norte de Puebla. Este complejo arquitectónico y astronómico, también conocido como #Tetelihtic, constituye el más antiguo de Mesoamérica, fuera de la región maya. El observatorio, entre otras funciones, de acuerdo al boletín emitido por el @INAHmx, “servía para fijar el inicio del calendario prehispánico mesoamericano en febrero, y la cosecha en octubre, lo cual es un elemento complejo y único” y “la orientación de sus estructuras piramidales se basa en el conocimiento de los astros”. A otro nivel, “podrían encontrarse los principios de la cultura totonaca la cual florecería en esta región serrana y el norte de la Costa del Golfo”, y señala que “los pobladores originales eran antepasados de los grupos totonacos” que se asentaron en lo que ahora son Cuetzalan, Puebla y El Tajín, Veracruz. Además, las investigaciones aportarían datos e información en relación a los vínculos culturales entre los antiguos huastecos y mayas. Estas investigaciones nos reafirman el avanzado conocimiento científico de las grandes civilizaciones que son pilares de México.

My latest for The Art Newspaper on the battle to prevent the Mexican Department of Defence from using one of its old bases in México City’s #Chapultepec Park to build a cafe, a shop, and a car park with a #museum attached… #Cultura #Ejercito #Museo theartnewspaper.com/2026/10/…

Mexican military retreats from plans to build enormous museum in a popular park

Following widespread opposition, including from Mexico City’s mayor, the plans to build a sprawling military museum in Bosque de Chapultepec are on hold while authorities seek an alternative site

One of the best pieces of advice I was ever given was to keep a note of these funny / special moments. If anyone can help @nmdacosta find her case - and especially her journal - please contact her directly. #LostProperty

A long shot...Last Wednesday, I left a small grey hardshell suitcase on a train from London St Pancras to Cambridge between 5-6pm The thing in it I'm most upset about losing is a five-year journal in which I've recorded moments with my daughter (now 7) that have made me laugh or smile, and how she's changed. I like to read them back to her so she knows how precious she is. Nothing has turned up through the train companies' lost property systems yet, and I know that may take a while, but I don't want to leave a stone unturned. Any bright ideas? Know this is a long shot. @TLRailUK @GNRailUK

Today, Baroness Campbell of Surbiton delivered a speech in the @UKHouseofLords using an AI recreation of her voice, built by ElevenLabs. A first for the UK Parliament. Baroness Campbell has spinal muscular atrophy, which affects her speech. The Baroness has now created an AI voice that replicates the tone, rhythm, and pitch of her original voice. Our technology has now been used to restore the voices of more than 11,000 people who have lost their voices through injury or illness, and we’ve committed to help one million people living with voice loss around the world.

A quote from Liam Byrne MP, Chair: “AI could transform our prosperity, public services and scientific progress, freeing up time for all of us to focus on the things that matter. But when powerful systems go wrong, we know from bitter experience that it’s the public that pays the price and taxpayers that pick up the bill. So we need to get to the bottom of who is checking these systems, when those checks begin, and whether Britain’s safety experts have the power to sound the alarm and stop the harm when things go wrong."
