Two researchers discovered hundreds of thousands of arraten documents, indigenous legal contracts, in Morocco's Atlas Mountains, offering deep insights into Amazigh social, legal, and economic history. They estimate that up to 500,000 arraten may still be hidden, emphasizing the importance of preserving this unique cultural heritage.
A massive underwater landslide off the coast of Morocco around 60,000 years ago, known as the «Bed 5 event», grew from an initial 1.5 km³ to 162 km³, making it one of the largest submarine gravity flows ever recorded, reshaping the ocean floor over a 450 km distance.
