Knight's tomb found under parking lot

It's not just his royal majesty Richard III, that took a dirt name under a parking lot--it turns out a knight has been found under a lot in Scotland. The headstone above was discovered while excavating for a new building. An adult skeleton was found nearby, which is thought to be the knight or noble in question. The headstone has been dated to the 13th century. From MSNBC:

Builders at the site expected they would find historic objects during construction. Before it became a parking lot (coincidentally, once used by the University of Edinburgh's archaeology department), the site housed the 17th-century Royal High School, the 16th-century Old High School, and the 13th-century Blackfriars Monastery, researchers said. Archaeologists also apparently uncovered some medieval remains of the monastery, which had been destroyed and somewhat lost since the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century.

Indiana Jones and the Lost Scripts

Indy discovers an ancient UFO

Mental Floss has great three-part series on the scripts that were almost made into movies. Some were meant to be more comedic, others began to take on the science fiction flavor that was prevelant in the last installment, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (KotCS).

While some of the "coulda' been" storylines might be heartbreaking for fans, there's some really great inspiration for writers, world-builders, and lovers of pulp action adventure. Check it out!

Abandoned concept for a Lost Expedition ride at Disney

• Part 1: Indiana Jones and the Monkey King - A 1985 attempt to revive Indy after Last Crusade and would have followed that film's comedic tone. Indy's female sidekick, "Betsy with a Brooklyn" accent might have been a recipe for disaster!
• Part 2: Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men From Mars - A noble "Indy vs. Aliens" effort that would have come to theaters in the mid 90s, but the wild success of Independence Day closed the door on Indy until...
• Part 3: Indiana Jones and the City of the Gods - Frank Darabont's scifi script that was sadly rewritten (a number of times) and finally became KotCS.
