‘Lost In History’: 30 Illuminating Pictures That “Throw Light On Our Past”

Friendship goals 😌

Bless this man for his humanity and bravery.

I read a lot of mystery books about the Orient Express, and it is described as very luxurious and beautiful. I can see now why

It's beautiful like water flowing.

Seen it in person, it's wonderous to look at

Amazing, rising literally from the ashes. I do hope she didn't die horribly of radiation poisoning...

"Nooo... I'm not feeling this one just a few more.."

What are the cannibals going to eat? They're nothing but bones. What a horrific picture.

We are the worst species

How are they even alive. This is pretty horrible

This is just sad on so many levels. Its hard to believe someone that emaciated could even be alive. The cannibals had to be pretty desperate to kill and eat someone in this bad of condition.

Holy sh*t. You see this, you realize you've really got nothing to complain about.

And some still sing God save the King. It should be God dammed the Kings.

Winston Churchill is burning in hell. Thank God.

Terrible.

So sad & horrific

OMG how horrific what these people went through

So sad what we have done and still not done creating our own problems, sad just sad

I'm British but was only taught about this in university... there was food plenty food but surprise surprise the British stole all their supplies and shipped it back to Britain... millions literally starved to death... piles of bones all over the place... the British raj threw a huge party invited royalty from all over the world had a huge banquet... meanwhile surrounding millions where suffering like this its disgusting and more people should know about it!!!

This is the worst photo I have ever seen

Brains and bone marrow.

Omg I didn’t even notice the child at first. How incredibly heartbreaking.

This is absolutely horrible.

Similar situation today in Yemen. How many of you know about it?

Most of the Indian Famines had very little to do with the British. They were caused by extreme weather events like droughts and dry monsoon season; the damage was increased by the traditional methods of cultivation and cultivars used, that provided no protection to the crops and had very limited yield preventing stockpiling in the good years. Many small Indian landowners moved their cultivation to plants better suited for international export, such as tea and textiles, further reducing the grain and rice output of many regions that came to be dependent on import of food from neighboring lands. Only in the Great Famine of 1876 the British some kind of direct impact, when the Empire kept buying grain from India despite the dry season would forecast failing crops, and later on succeeded in providing only limited relief and assistance to the populations.

The worst part of the famine was the fact that Churchill knew about it. But saw no reason to do anything. Even going so far as the fact to say the Indians were to blame for the famine. Saying quote they breed like rabbits.

Wow, what an amazing scene

How can these people be alive?!

Horrid! How? How could this be? An entire family of skin & bones? Meth doesn't even leave such a sight

So sad

Wow what a frightening and sad picture all at once. I can’t even imagine the pain and fear they all must be in?!?

I believe he was more worried about the British than cannibals, cause the British as history time on time has reminded us would have tried snatching whatsoever was left with him.

Oh my god that's horrific

yeah they would make for some great bone meal right there if I was a cannibal or if a cannibal was you know what I mean

lol.

And people are still policing womens clothing

The part in Schindlers List which upsets me the most is when they are told to carefully write their names on their suitcases as they will get them back when they get off the train. You then see the suitcases being brought to the sorting areas and the contents being put into various piles like this. The fact that they gave these prisoners a glimer of hope (that their possessions would be returned to them) while knowing what was in store for them is just heartbreaking 😥

Beauty in chaos!!

Wow, how does he find the specific colour?

That picture is absolutely gorgeous

TIL goats like bananas. Looked into it, and in addition to hay and grains, I learned they also eat "foods like fruits, dried fruits, veggies, graham crackers, cheerios, Cheetos, and even corn chips."

"Stop, Hammer time! You can't touch this, You can't touch this, You can't touch this, Break it down!"

100% better than Edison, who was a liar and a thief.

Snow White is gorgeous

No, that's V for Victory as popularised by Churchill.

What a waste of beautiful trees

That doll in the middle is looking inside ur soul!

Too bad that it sunk. Cause that ship, is a masterpiece
