THE WILD HUNT – Since 2014, the Apache have fought in court to stop the transfer of their sacred land.

It dated to the 2nd Century B.C.E. Inside, they found traces of alcohol, honey, and human fluids. Davide Tanasi and the other authors of that article theorized that people used the cup as part of a ritual of dream incubation.
