The genetic distinctiveness of King Matthias Corvinus has been identified, and the legendary Hungarian king’s remains can finally be located within the Székesfehérvár Ossuary. The search, taken on by Human Resources Minister Miklós Kásler and his team from the Hungarian Research institute (MKI), will be far from easy.
Minister Kásler said that with current archaeogenetic technology, researchers now have the opportunity to accurately analyze the remains of kings and identify their genes.
So far, only the bones of Béla III and his wife were successfully distinguished in 1848, but some still argue that the remains are actually those of Kálmán (Coloman The Learned/Coloman The Book-Lover). Either way, they gave archaeologists the ability to identify the genetic distinctiveness of the Árpád dynasty.

Lent is a mystery to a lot of people. Many folks are generally aware that it’s a religious observance that happens every spring and somehow involves people getting ashes smeared on their forehead and/or giving up chocolate or booze or Facebook until Easter. But like most practices rooted in Christianity, the way people observe Lent, or whether they observe it at all, varies wildly depending on their heritage, specific religious tradition, and preferences.
Still, there are some rules and guidelines that mark the observance of Lent for Christians who observe the season. And, increasingly, even nonreligious people are picking up the ritual. Here’s an overview.
We don’t need to be Christian to celebrate Christmas. That’s been true for a long time. We don’t even need to be religious. Considering the commercialization of the holiday, that might be an advantage.
But there is no way to get around the religious iconography. Jesus, nativity scenes and Christian symbols are everywhere. So how do you explain this to your children – or someone else’s children – if you and they are not religious?
Explaining Jesus to your child means explaining God. But when you pull that thread the story unravels to reveal the many versions of god that make up mainstream religion. So we have at least two distinct Christmas problems: the question of God’s existence, and which god might we be talking about.
