It’s the end of July 2023 and we’ve handpicked a few of our favorite history stories from this month. Today, we’ll be talking about…

An 18,000-year-old shelter that could be the oldest human settlement in North America…
The remains of a U.S. soldier from World War II that were finally identified after 80 years…
A Norwegian family who found Bronze Age rock paintings while out on a hike…
And another Norwegian family who uncovered an ancient Viking burial site in their own backyard, as well as a number of historical anniversaries including the beginning of the Battle of Gettysburg, the Boise Bombing Raid, and the tenth anniversary of the Marriage Act in the United Kingdom.
