He posted a photograph from a magazine on the net, and convinced several British men to send “her” money for a visa so she could come and meet them. After the woman failed to arrive, several of the men complained to the Russian police, who arrested the student.

It contains the carving of a male figure with arms and legs outstretched to recreate the arrangement of stars in the constellation we still represent with the figure of a male hunter?over 30,000 years later. The Ancient Egyptians identified this group of stars with their god Osiris. It’s amazing to think that this representation of that group of stars could have lasted all these years through so many different cultures.
