Archaeologists Discover Lost City In Cambodian Jungle 91
First time accepted submitter steve_mark66 writes "Australian archaeologists using remote-sensing technology have uncovered an ancient city in Cambodia that has remained hidden for more than a millennium under dense jungle undergrowth. The discovery of Mahendraparvata, a 1,200-year-old lost city that predates Cambodia's famous Angkor Wat temple complex by 350 years, was part of the Hindu-Buddhist Khmer Empire that ruled much of Southeast Asia from about 800 to 1400 A.D., during a time that coincided with Europe's Middle Ages"
The Age has a story of its own, with video.

Hoffa, I think, was killed by the Manson family back in the 80's, when they killed Sharon Stone. I think Charles Manson's daughter Marilyn is still around, I hear she's the singer in some band.
