  • Unearthing the Histories of Agrarian Landscapes

    Open AccessTimothy Kinnaird, Tim C Kinnaird et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2025Cited by: 4References: 2

    This article presents an interdisciplinary programme for research on historic landscapes that has emerged since 2020 in the framework of the project Terraces as Sustainable Agricultural Environments (‘TerraSAgE’). While the methodology has been tested in specific Mediterranean case studies, it is also applicable in other locations and regions. Our integrated approach provides new insights into the development of terraced agrarian landscapes and t…

  • The impact of devolution on local health systems

    Open AccessPhilip Britteon, Alfariany Fatimah et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2024Cited by: 1References: 30

    Devolution and decentralisation policies involving health and other government sectors have been promoted with a view to improve efficiency and equity in local service provision. Evaluations of these reforms have focused on specific health or care measures, but little is known about their full impact on local health systems. We evaluated the impact of devolution in Greater Manchester (England) on multiple outcomes using a whole system approach. W…

  • Evaluating whole system reforms

    Open AccessAlfariany Fatimah, Philip Britteon et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy2023

    Whole-system reforms, including devolution and integration of health and social care services, have the potential to impact multiple dimensions of health system performance. Most evaluations focus on a single or narrow subsets of outcomes amenable to change. This approach may not: (i) capture the overall effect of the reform, (ii) identify the mechanisms through which system-wide changes may have occurred, (iii) prevent post-hoc selection of outc…

  • Provincializing Roman Dacia

    Matthew M McCarty, Mariana Egri et al.ARTICLEMouseion Journal of the Classical…2022

    The Apulum Roman Villa Project (ARVP) examines the “provincialization” and “de-provincialization” of Roman Dacia through the archaeological micro-history of a villa site at Oarda-Bulza, just outside one of the provincial capitals at Apulum. As one of the first villas in Dacia to be excavated scientifically and from multidisciplinary perspectives, the site promises to shed new light on the interplays among forms of production, cultural consumption…

  • The relative effects of non-pharmaceutical interventions on wave one Covid-19 mortality

    Open AccessJohn Stokes, Jonathan Stokes et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    Focusing on 'compulsory', particularly school closing, not 'voluntary' reduction of social interactions with mandated interventions appears to have been the most effective strategy to mitigate early, wave one, Covid-19 mortality. Within 'compulsory' settings, such as schools and workplaces, less damaging interventions than closing might also be considered in future waves/epidemics

    Open AccessAldo A Vasquez-Bonilla, Javier Brazo‐sayavera et al.ARTICLECultura Ciencia y Deporte2021

    The measurement of resting muscle oxygenation capacity is under investigation in team sports. The aim of the current study was to observe the changes after a preseason, in muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) at rest and the relationship with body composition and jump power in soccer players. 17 soccer players (age 21.8 ± 2.2 years) were enrolled. Body composition, somatotype, countermovement jump (CMJ) and single-leg countermovement jump (SLCMJ) were…

  • Agricultural terraces in the Mediterranean

    Open AccessSam Turner, Timothy Kinnaird et al.ARTICLEAntiquity2021Cited by: 30References: 37

    The history of agricultural terraces remains poorly understood due to problems in dating their construction and use. This has hampered broader research on their significance, limiting knowledge of past agricultural practices and the long-term investment choices of rural communities. The authors apply OSL profiling and dating to the sediments associated with agricultural terraces across the Mediterranean region to date their construction and use. …

  • Going beyond the mean in examining relationships of adolescent non-cognitive skills with health-related quality of life and biomarkers in later-life

    Open AccessRose Atkins, A Turner et al.ARTICLEEconomics & Human Biology2020

    Several studies have established associations between early-life non-cognitive skills and later-life health and health behaviours. However, no study addresses the more important policy concern about how this relationship varies along the health distribution. We use unconditional quantile regression to analyse the effects of adolescent non-cognitive skills across the distributions of the health-related quality of life at age 50 and biomarkers at a…

  • Optically-stimulated luminescence profiling and dating of historic agricultural terraces in Catalonia (Spain)

    Open AccessTimothy Kinnaird, Jordi Bolòs et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science2016Cited by: 23References: 3

    Dating agricultural terraces is a notoriously difficult problem for archaeologists. The frequent occurrence of residual material in terrace soils and the potential for post-depositional disturbance mean that conventional artefactual and lab-based dating methods often provide unreliable dates. In this paper we present a new technique using luminescence field profiling coupled with OSL dating to produce complete (relative) sequences of dates for se…

  • The Lateran Project

    Open AccessIan Haynes, Paolo Liverani et al.ARTICLEPapers of the British School at…2014Cited by: 4References: 1

    The archaeological area of the Lateran in Rome lies immediately within the Aurelian Walls near the gate of the Via Tusculana, under the Cathedral of St. John and the neighboring buildings. It is an area of great historical importance. The domus of the first two centuries AD were superseded by the Castra Nova Equitum Singularium of Septimius Severus and later by the Constantinian basilica and the Lateran bishopric

    Open AccessA Turner, Sameera Pathirana et al.ARTICLEBMC International Health and…2009

    BACKGROUND: On the 26th December 2004 the Asian tsunami devastated the Sri Lankan coastline. More than two years later, over 14,500 families were still living in transitional shelters. This study compares the health of the internally displaced people (IDP), living in transitional camps with those in permanent housing projects provided by government and non-government organisations in Sri Lanka. METHODS: This study was conducted in seven transitio…

  • Medieval big cat remains from the Royal Menagerie at the Tower of London

    Open AccessH O''Regan, Hannah J O''Regan et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2006Cited by: 4References: 4

    Big cats have been regarded as a symbol of power in different cultures throughout history. Here we present a study of the only known big cat remains from the Royal Menagerie at the Tower of London. They were excavated in 1937 but have not previously been published. Our radiocarbon dating has established that they range in date from the 13th-17th centuries, making them the earliest post-Pleistocene big cat remains in Britain. We provide a descript…
