Eero’s Signal is a cellular safety net for your Wi-Fi network

It’s even depicted on the flag of the Republic of Venice. But while it is known as the Lion of Venice, the statue’s origin story appears to be far murkier than once believed. In a new paper published Thursday in the journal Antiquity, researchers lay out evidence that the bronze statue was made using copper ore from the Lower Yangzi River basin in China
