It was 17 December 1944. The American B-24 bomber aircraft, better known as the Tulsamerican, was circling the island of Vis off the coast of Croatia. The plane was damaged following an attack by the Germans and finally crashed into the sea. Seven of the ten crew members survived but three died, among them the pilot, Eugene Ford. Now, the marine archaeologist Brendan Foley has brought him home for

Biologists feasting on spring in Abusa Valley

Swedish nature is teeming with wild edible plants. Some taste good, others don’t. A group of biologists from 11 different countries got to learn which plants are edible, and what they taste like, when the department’s SACT (Scientific Activities) group organised a herbal excursion to Abusa Valley outside Södra Sandby in Skåne. The goal was to learn more about the herbs of nature while letting the

Improving conditions for autonomous ships

Just like self-driving cars, we can expect autonomous ships to become more common in the coming years. However, two safety challenges which need to be solved along the way, and which are different for ships compared to cars, are navigation without GPS and remote control. In his research, Mårten Lager has developed user interfaces for remote control of ships, as well as positioning using water dept

Is the end of the world nigh?

Apocalyptic beliefs are as old as humankind itself. So, why are we drawn to stories about the finite nature of everything? A group of researchers is trying to get to grips with the issue. “In fact, we have always been as close to or as far from an apocalypse, if by that we mean a global catastrophe that wipes out or radically alters life. The idea that human life is fragile and can come to an abru

Welcome back, Classical Archaeology and Ancient History!

Gifted and enthusiastic students work with the "layers of history" in our beautiful Sculpture Hall. Pufendorf IAS is situated in one of the most beautiful buildings in Lund (if we may say so ourselves), originally built in 1886. The last major renovation of the former Department of Physics and Classical Department was done in 2009, just before the Pufendorf Institute moved in. It was of great impo

New species formed when the Mediterranean dried up

A new study may have uncovered why wall lizards have become the most successful reptile in the Mediterranean region. The results reveal how drastic changes in sea levels and climate 6 million years ago affected species formation in the area. The researchers believe they can now explain why the lizards became so diverse and widespread, something that has puzzled biologists since the 19th century. T
