Nagoro, Japan, is now known as the "Doll Village," because over time local artist Tsukimi Ayano has made replicas of neighbors who have died or moved away. The town's population is now 10 dolls to every 1 person. #WyrdWednesday

Ancient Archaeology Alive: Bryn Celli Ddu Open Day | Cadw

A celebration of prehistoric Wales and beyondBryn Celli Ddu and its surrounding landscape is truly magical. One of the most important aspects of being there is the fabulous surroundings: the monument is not only beautiful but is also one of the most important and best-preserved examples of a Neolithic passage tomb in Wales, dating to around 5,000 years old.
