A skull that was found in 2011 near Gilgo Beach on Long Island has been identified as that of a 34-year-old woman who went missing in 1996, the authorities said on Friday. The death of the woman, Karen Vergata, has not been linked to Rex Heuermann, a Long Island architect who last month pleaded not guilty to killing three women whose bodies were found along the beach. The skull of Ms. Vergata, who investigators said had worked as an escort, was discovered on Tobay Beach around the same time that investigators discovered the remains of 11 other people along the stretch of the South Shore that includes nearby Gilgo Beach. Other remains belonging to Ms. Vergata had been found in Davis Park on Fire Island in April 1996. For years, she was known as “Fire Island Jane Doe” as the police worked to identify her.

In mid-2020 Rome secured the lion's share of a 724-billion-euro kitty aimed at helping EU members emerge from COVID greener and more tech-friendly. Italy's 191.5 billion euros ($210 billion) of cheap loans and grants, to be received in tranches through 2026, was intended for productive investments in the bloc's most chronically stagnant economy. MICRO-PROJECTSMore than half the EU money is meant to go on digitalisation and ecological transition, with the rest devoted to sustainable transport, education, social cohesion and health. The government is still awaiting a 19-billion-euro tranche of the EU funds blocked in March over missed policy targets stemming from 2022. It brings Italy's byzantine rules closer to EU standards, but Gobbato said people will initially find it hard to adapt.

Oasele fosilizate, care includ bucăți de craniu și maxilare rupte, au fost găsite în peștera Guattari din orașul de coastă San Felice Circeo. Mario Rolfo, profesor de arheologie la Universitatea Tor Vergata, a spus că majoritatea oamenilor de Neanderthal au fost uciși de hiene pentru hrană și aduși în peșteră. Alte rămășițe ale oamenilor de Neanderthal au fost descoperite întâmplător în peștera Guattari în 1939, aceasta devenind "unul dintre cele mai importante locuri din lume pentru istoria oamenilor de Neanderthal". Peștera a fost sigilată în trecut de un cutremur sau o alunecare de teren, permițând păstrarea în bună stare a conținutului ei.
