Latin America Sees Women Rise in Politics Across Nations
In Argentina Isabel Peron becomes vice president amid a wave of female political involvement across Latin America. Colombia, Venezuela, and other nations see daughters and wives of former leaders elevated to high offices or shown as potential contenders, reflecting shifts but often tied to strongman influence. The era marks growing female presence in government, with Eva and Isabel Peron and others shaping campaigns and policy in a region still navigating male-dominated power structures.

Ancient Synagogue Excavated at Sardis in Turkey
Ancient synagogue at Sardis in western Turkey identified as one of Asia Minor’s largest. A joint team from Harvard, Cornell, and UC Berkeley reported at the Tenth International Congress of Classical Archaeology that eight synagogues have been found in inscriptions across Asia Minor. The Sardis site, started in 19 and dated to the second century A.D., features a distinct ground plan with a square apse and Hebrew or Greek inscriptions. The discovery underscores the Jewish presence in the ancient world and distinguishes Sardis for its size and historical context.
