Análisis paleoambiental de una sección del Plioceno Inferior en la Cuenca de Águilas (Cordillera Bética oriental)

La sección de El Barcelón, localizada en el sector interno del Arco de Águilas (Cordillera Bética oriental), registra la reinundación pliocena. Consta de una unidad basal de conglomerados, A, y una unidad B de margas limosas y areniscas glauconíticas. Los rasgos icnológicos esculpidos sobre los bloques de la unidad A, atribuibles a la icnofacies de Entobia, sugieren una transgresión rápida. En la unidad B se han reconocido tres asociaciones de foraminíferos bentónicos: una asociación I propia de ambientes epibatiales, seguida de la II, propia de medios circalitorales, y finalmente, una asociación III, infralitoral. En general, las asociaciones apuntan a condiciones eutróficas, con estrés ambiental, y a episodios de corrientes energéticas en el fondo.

Moriscos peninsulares, moros filipinos y el islam en el extremo oriental del imperio español: estudio y edición de la Segunda carta para la S.C.M.R. acerca de los mahometanos de las Philipinas de Melchor de Ávalos (1585)

Se publica como apéndice este documento.

Rabbinical manuscripts of Judah Monis, ca. 1700s

This leather-bound volume contains ten handwritten Hebrew texts presumably compiled by Judah Monis in the early 18th century. The pieces range from three to 150 pages on different sized leaves and appear to be in multiple hands. The last page of the volume has the struck-through inscription, "Judah Monis' Book" and accompanies a 44-page text. The texts are unattributed and undated, but have been identified as transcriptions of cabalistic writings and include a short biography of Isaac Luria (1533-1572) and extracts from the work of Luria, Hayyim ben Joseph Vital, Jacob ben Hayyim Zemah, Abraham ben Isaac of Granada, and Naphtali Bachrach. The transcriptions appear to be unattributed and undated.
