I finally made the switch to the iPhone 16, and I picked the larger iPhone 16 Plus. After a few days with it, I have lots of thoughts about it as I adjust to the larger size. But I've been able to test the new Camera Control button, one of the highlights of the iPhone 16, and I'm equally excited and frustrated. Picture this: you're out and about, and you need to snap a quick photo of something around you. You press the Camera Control button, but then you can't take the picture using the hand you're holding the iPhone 16 Plus with. That means you have to use your other hand to tap the screen and get the picture. So... what's the point of the Camera Control button?

Many 21st century Indigenous groups are descended from peoples who decorated the walls of caves, cliffs, and rocky outcroppings with impressive collections of rock art. These ancient peoples used drawings, engravings, and illustrations for the purposes of intergenerational communication, as they wanted to make sure the memories of their beliefs and experiences would be preserved indefinitely.In a new research project, a rock art expert from Poland looked more closely at the work of modern Indigenous artists from Central Asia (Siberia and Kazakhstan) and Canada, to discover how much they have been influenced by ancient artistic traditions.Ancient Themes by Modern Hands According to archaeologist Andrzej Rozwadowski from Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, Poland, rock art explores themes that should resonate with Indigenous groups still today. The purpose of his research was to find out how frequently Indigenous artists incorporate such themes into their work and to what extent they did so intentionally, as a way to help modern peoples reclaim their deeply historical cultural identities.

By examining ancient walrus DNA, an international research team led by Lund University in Sweden have retraced the walrus ivory trade routes of the Viking Age. They found that Norse Vikings and Arctic Indigenous peoples were probably meeting and trading ivory in remote parts of High Arctic Greenland, several centuries before Christopher Columbus “discovered” North America. The study is now published in Science Advances. "On a more human level these remarkable encounters, framed within the vast and intimidating landscapes of the High Arctic, would probably have involved a degree of curiosity, fascination and excitement."
