Studies on Stone Age Housepits in Fennoscandia (4000 - 2000 cal BC) : Changes in ground plan, site location and degree of sedentism

Housepits have a remarkably short research history as compared to Fennoscandian archaeological research on the Stone Age in general. The current understanding of the numbers and the distribution of Stone Age housepits in the Nordic countries has, for the most part, been shaped by archaeological studies carried out over the last twenty to thirty years. The main subjects of this research are Neolithic housepits, which are archaeological remains of semi-subterranean pithouses. This dissertation consists of five peer-reviewed articles and a synthesis paper. The articles deal with the development of housepits as seen in the data gathered from Finland (the Lake Saimaa area and south-eastern Finland) and Russia (the Karelian Isthmus). This synthesis expands the discussion of the changes observed in the Papers to include Fennoscandian housepit research as a whole. Certain changes in the size, shape, environmental location, and clustering of housepits extended into various cultures and ecological zones in northern Fennoscandia. Previously, the evolution of housepits has been interpreted to have been caused by the adaptation of Neolithic societies to prevailing environmental circumstances or to re-organization following contacts with the agrarian Corded Ware/Battle Axe Cultures spreading to North. This dissertation argues for two waves of change in the pithouse building tradition. Both waves brought with them certain changes in the pithouses themselves and in the practices of locating the dwellings in the environment/landscape. The changes in housepits do not go hand in hand with other changes in material culture, nor are the changes restricted to certain ecological environments. Based on current information, it appears that the changes relate primarily to the spread of new concepts of housing and possibly to new technology, as opposed to representing merely a local response to environmental factors. This development commenced already before the birth of the Corded Ware/Battle Axe Cultures. Therefore, the changes are argued to have resulted from the spreading of new ideas through the same networks that actively distributed commodities, exotic goods, and raw materials over vast areas between the southern Baltic Sea, the north-west Russian forest zone, and Fennoscandia.

Evaluación del efecto de cal y urea en la sobrevivencia de P. solanacearum E.F. Smith raza dos causante del moko bacteriano en musáceas

Con el objetivo de determinar el efecto de cal, urea y la combinación de ambos en la sobrevivencia del moko bacteriano en plantaciones de Musáceas, se desarrolló en la finca TICOMO en el Km 9 carretera Managua-El Crucero en el período de Octubre del 95 a Julio del 96 el presente estudio de investigación, el cual se dividió en dos etapas: una etapa de campo que incluyó metodología para la realización de los tratamientos, formas de muestreo de suelo y período para muestrear. La otra etapa se realizó en Laboratorio y consistió en la realización de pruebas bioquímicas para la identificación de la bacteria, métodos de siembra y conteos de colonias. Dentro del mismo período se realizó una encuesta a los productores del departamento de Rivas. Se realizaron análisis económicos de los tratamientos y se compararon con el producto químico Glifosato. Como resultado final de la Evaluación se obtuvo que la urea reduce en un 93.89% las colonias de bacterias iniciales, en segundo termino la cal disminuyó las colonias de bacterias en un 88.29%, la combinación de ambos tratamientos aminoró en un 86.5% el número de colonias de bacterias y el testigo redujo el 71.86% de la población. En general la Urea P.S el tratamiento más eficaz para bajar las poblaciones de bacterias en menor tiempo comparado con los otros tratamientos; cabe señalar que con sólo el saneamiento en la plantación la bacteria sin ningún tipo de tratamiento puede disminuir sus poblaciones, pero significará esperar mayor tiempo para que la bacteria descienda sus poblaciones y se atrasaría la época de resiembra, quedando a criterio del productor el utilizar o no sólo el saneamiento. Los resultados de las encuestas reflejan que los productores reconocen la enfermedad en sus distinto síntomas, la mayoría sabe como se transmite y como se puede prevenir pero no cómo controlar. Sin la debida Asistencia Técnica y la falta de información acerca de las enfermedades e indicarles la importancia de las medidas fitosanitarias, los productores tendrán siempre los mismos problemas de enfermedades en sus plantaciones

O peso das mãos: morte, memória e afeto em Cal, livro de José Luís Peixoto

Em Cal, livro do escritor português José Luís Peixoto, a morte mostra-se sob diversas perspectivas. Esta dissertação objetiva, primeiramente, reconhecer as singularidades dessas perspectivas, bem como o movimento de identificação entre elas. Considerando que o livro não apenas desvela possibilidades de morte, mas, principalmente, as interseções entre as noções de morte e de vida, buscaremos responder às seguintes questões: é possível saber se, de fato, estamos vivos? A morte é definitiva? Morte e vida são condições excludentes? A temática da memória e dos afetos, inseparável das reflexões acerca da finitude e das noções de presença e ausência, perpassará, inevitavelmente, toda a progressão deste trabalho. Para pensarmos esses temas, assim como seus temas transversais, tomamos como referência conceitos de teóricos da literatura, da filosofia e da psicanálise, como G. Deleuze, J. Derrida, M. Blanchot, F. Nietzsche, S. Freud, B. Spinoza, G. Bataille. O diálogo com e entre pensadores de contextos distintos contribui para dar a esta dissertação seu aspecto fragmentário, na qual as reflexões surgem e resurgem em progressão labiríntica, de limites deslocáveis

冲绳海槽北部PC-1岩芯24 cal.kaBP 以来孢粉记录的古环境信息

东海陆架是世界上最宽阔的陆架之一，面积达770 000 km2左右。在末次冰盛期（LGM），东海海平面下降120～130 m左右，绝大部分陆架暴露出海面。而冲绳海槽是第四纪以来一直保持海洋环境的东海深海区。本文以冲绳海槽北部PC-1岩芯为材料，通过分析该孔的孢粉，加上详细的AMS 14C测年，恢复了周边地区24 cal.kaBP以来的古植被，并推测古环境和古气候变化，重点讨论了LGM时期出露大陆架上发育的植被。 PC-1孔（31°27.5′N，128°24.8′E）位于黑潮支流对马暖流东侧，水深590 m，柱长812 cm。孢粉分析按间隔8 cm取样，个别为4~6 cm，共分析了103个孢粉样品。利用9个AMS 14C数据建立年龄标尺，用Calib5.1.0软件进行年龄校正。通过相邻样品深度的线性内插获得每个样品的年龄，采用外延法得到顶部和底部的校正年龄分别为351cal aBP、24 280 cal aBP，孢粉样品的时间分辨率平均为230 a。 根据孢粉百分比和沉积率的变化，可划分出四个带：Ⅰ带（812～715 cm，24.2～21.1 cal. kaBP）、Ⅱ带（715～451 cm，21.1～15.2 cal. kaBP）、Ⅲ带（451～251 cm，15.2～10.8 cal. kaBP）、Ⅳ带（251～0 cm，10.8～0.3 cal. kaBP），分别对应MIS 3末期、末次冰盛期、冰消期和全新世。末次冰盛期草本植物花粉占优势，孢粉沉积率较高，此时草本花粉主要来源于出露的大陆架，其上发育了以蒿属为主的草地植被，气候比较寒冷干燥；冰消期海平面开始回升，松属花粉含量升高，草本植物花粉含量下降；全新世以木本植物花粉占绝对优势，栗属－栲属花粉迅速增加，蕨类孢子含量升高，草本植物花粉含量锐减，孢粉沉积率降低，由于海平面回升，大陆架被淹没，此时孢粉主要来源于日本岛，九州地区生长了以栲属、栎属为主的常绿阔叶与落叶阔叶林，气候温暖湿润。 叶枝杉属花粉在整个岩芯中零星出现。叶枝杉属植物分布于菲律宾吕宋北部至塔斯马尼亚和新西兰气候潮湿的山地林中，该属花粉在岩芯中的出现，可能暗示了黑潮的影响或者是较强的夏季风。 草本植物与松属花粉百分比变化很好的反映了海平面的升降，松属花粉含量较高指示海平面较高。对岩芯中主要类型的花粉百分比进行了频谱分析，显示存在千年尺度的准周期变化，有明显的6.8，3.8，2.2，1.6 ka的周期。 孢粉样品中的炭屑统计表明，末次冰消期炭屑含量最高，可能因为末次冰消期降雨量增加，炭屑可被降水带到沉积地点沉积下来；全新世的炭屑浓度较高，尤其在晚全新世，出现了一个峰值，究其原因可能与气候变化和人类活动有关。

Tephra-linked peat humification records from Irish ombrotrophic bogs question nature of solar forcing at 850 cal. yr BC.

This paper investigates evidence for palaeoclimatic changes during the period ca. 1500-500 cal. yr BC through peat humification studies on seven Irish ombrotrophic bogs. The sites are well-correlated by the identification of three mid-first millennium BC tephras, which enable the humification records at specific points in time to be directly compared. Phases of temporarily increased wetness are suggested at ca. 1300-1250 cal. yr BC, ca. 1150-1050 cal. yr BC, ca. 940 cal. yr BC and ca. 740 cal. yr BC. The last of these is confirmed to be synchronous at five sites, suggesting external forcing on a regional scale. The timing of this wet-shift is constrained by two closely dated tephras and is demonstrated to be distinct from the widely reported changes to cooler/wetter conditions associated with a solar minimum at 850-760 cal. yr BC, at which time the Irish sites appear instead to experience drier conditions. The results suggest the possibility of either non-uniform responses to solar forcing in northwest Europe at this time, or the existence of unrelated climate events in the early first millennium BC. The findings caution against the correlation of loosely dated palaeoclimate data if the effects of forcing mechanisms are to be understood.
