Abstract: During extensive salvage excavations carried out during the years 2004-2008 in a large Early Islamic industrial area at the vicinities of Ramla, in Central Israel, an unparalleled industrial device was unearthed. The star-shaped, soil embedded installation, whose lower part was preserved, consisted of a central pottery jar surrounded by five minor jars, linked by ceramic pipes. Evidence of heat was observed mainly around the central vessel, and metal hollow cones perforated in the tip were found inside the surrounding jars. Although the manufacturing procedures and operation techniques of the installation are not completely clear, it is proposed that the installation is part of an industrial workshop or an alchemy laboratory. Both industry and alchemy were well-developed during the Early Islamic period and very often closely related, to the point that sometimes it is difficult to distinguish between them. The identification proposed is based on comparisons with tools described in literary sources, and somewhat later drawings and etchings. Circumstantial ceramic evidence was found, as well as the proximity of a bathhouse whose guests could have been the consumers of perfumes and unguents seem to reinforce this possibility. Due to the poor state of preservation of the device and the lack of available comparisons, the identification proposed here is tentative, and future research coupled with eventual new discoveries is needed in order to clarify this matter.

Resumen: El autor describe la concepción económica del Ingeniero Alejandro Bunge, quien se destacó como una de las personalidades con mayor capacidad visionaria en la Argentina de la primera mitad del siglo XX. Formado en la escuela histórica alemana, Bunge comprendió muy tempranamente la necesidad de una nueva orientación para la estrategia de desarrollo de nuestro país. Orientado por los objetivos de un conocimiento exhaustivo de la realidad nacional, una nueva estrategia productiva de sesgo agroindustrial y una amplia reforma social basada en los valores cristianos, Bunge trazó un camino que, según el autor, sigue siendo un desafío pendiente para la Argentina.

Resumen: El Museo de Ciencias Naturales de La Plata, Argentina, posee una colección de piezas cerámicas provenientes del asentamiento egipcio y de la iglesia de Aksha, y de las tumbas nubias de Serra Oeste, sobre la margen izquierda del Nilo en la Baja Nubia, que pertenecen a las culturas meroítica y del Grupo X. Esta colección es producto del reparto después de las excavaciones realizadas por la Expedición Franco-Argentina en Sudán entre 1961 y 1963, como parte de las campañas de la UNESCO para salvar los monumentos de Nubia.

Trade and relations between the southern Levant and other regions of the Near East (mainly Egypt) during the Early Bronze Age (ca. 3,600–2,300 BC) have been the subject of many studies. Research concerning the exchange of local commodities was almost ignored or was discussed in parochial studies, focusing on specific archaeological finds. It is the intention of this paper to present the results of recent research of the exchange of commodities provided by archaeological data from excavations in the Southern Levant with regard to economic theories on the exchange-value of goods and exchange networks. Conclusions regarding the type of society and the forms of government in the Southern Levant during the Early Bronze Age are also presented.

Resumen: El autor del artículo propone un recorrido a través de las herejías que se presentaron en los primeros años de vida de la Iglesia con sus variantes y modalidades, y del testimonio de los Santos Padres. Su propósito es ofrecer un instrumento para la revisión de distintas actitudes actuales en el ámbito de la fe, la cristología y la eclesiología y plantear el desafío metodológico que proponen a la hora de elaborar respuestas. Presenta, en este sentido, las primeras herejías cristológicas y analiza los significados e implicancias en la perspectiva eclesiológica del docetismo, el gnosticismo, la tendencia monofisista y la herejía de Apolinar difundida en los siglos IV-V y el nestorianismo, y traza relaciones con el contexto cultural actual. Especial importancia concede al gnosticismo, tentación siempre presente de la existencia cristiana. Dentro de las herejías eclesiológicas, desarrolla el significado y las actitudes del movimiento donatista. En torno a las herejías de la gracia, desarrolla los contenidos de la doctrina pelagiana y de la propuesta semipelagiana como tendencia más espiritual y pastoral. Se destaca el valor de la Tradición que nos incorpora en la historia viva de la Iglesia.

Resumen: Los personajes de los tres poemas castellanos del temprano siglo XIII que componen el manuscrito K-III-4 de la Biblioteca de San Lorenzo de El Escorial (Libro de Apolonio, Vida de Santa María Egipciaca, Libro de los tres reyes de Oriente) viajan lamentando aquello que han perdido a causa de la ira regia, el propio pecado o la amenaza de muerte inminente, pero también para superar esas pérdidas. Esos viajes representan la medida de una aventura medieval cuya dinámica expresa la concepción profunda de la trayectoria vital como prueba cristiana, según se analizará en el presente trabajo.

In this paper, processes in the early stages of vortex motion and the development of flow structure behind an impulsively-started circular cylinder at high Reynolds number are investigated by combining the discrete vortex model with boundary layer theory, considering the separation of incoming flow boundary layer and rear shear layer in the recirculating flow region. The development of flow structure and vortex motion, particularly the formation and development of secondary vortex and a pair of secondary vortices and their effect on the flow field are calculated. The results clearly show that the flow structure and vortices motion went through a series of complicated processes before the symmetric main vortices change into asymmetric: development of main vortices induces secondary vortices; growth of the secondary vortices causes the main vortex sheets to break off and causes the symmetric main vortices to become “free” vortices, while a pair of secondary vortices is formed; then the vortex sheets, after breaking off, gradually extend downstream and the structure of a pair of secondary vortices becomes relaxed. These features of vortex motion look very much like the observed features in some available flow field visualizations. The action of the secondary vortices causes the main vortex sheets to break off and converts the main vortices into free vortices. This should be the immediate cause leading to the instability of the motion of the symmetric main vortices. The flow field structure such as the separation position of boundary layer and rear shear layer, the unsteady pressure distributions and the drag coefficient are calculated. Comparison with other results or experiments is also made.
