Traditional Islamic Poetry as a Form of Cultural Heritage Conservation
Syiir, one of traditional Islamic poetry has some functions in terms of cultural preservation and heritage and it will be discussed in this article.The less practical implementation and usefulness of Syiir in modern society of Indonesia and how to preserve it as cultural heritage have been the main concern.A qualitative research methodology has been used in this article to explore the cultural importance, the origins, and relevance of Syiir.Moreo…
Global economic crisis, austerity and neoliberal urban governance in England
The post-2008 global economic recession has had different spatial impacts as national and subnational economies are affected by and respond to economic downturn in a variety of ways. Drawing on recent research on the two English Core Cities of Bristol and Liverpool this paper develops an integrated and multiscalar analysis to explore the differentiated impacts of the economic crisis on cities and public services. This analysis is located within t…

The effect of charring and burial on the biochemical composition of cereal grains
Assessing natural variation and the effects of charring, burial and pre-treatment on the stable carbon and nitrogen isotope values of archaeobotanical cereals and pulses
DNA evidence for multiple introductions of barley into Europe following dispersed domestications in Western Asia
It has long been recognised that the Neolithic spread across Europe via two separate routes, one along the Mediterranean coasts, the other following the axis of the major rivers. But did these two streams have a common point of origin in south-west Asia, at least with regard to the principal plant and animals species that were involved? This study of barley DNA shows that the domesticated barley grown in Neolithic Europe falls into three separate…
Stable carbon isotope analysis as a direct means of inferring crop water status and water management practices
Stable carbon isotope analysis of plant remains is a promising tool for researchers studying palaeoclimate and past agricultural systems. The potential of the technique is clear: it offers a direct measure of the water conditions in which plants grew. In this paper, we assess how reliably stable carbon isotope discrimination can be used to infer water conditions, through the analysis of present-day crop plants grown at multiple locations across t…
P1-392 The evaluation of a novel general population sampling frame
Introduction Due to increasingly restrictive privacy regulations, it has become difficult to access representative general population samples. In the UK, commercially available online datasets are available that pool data from several sources, but are generally untested in terms of completeness and accuracy. Aim To evaluate the performance of a commercially available online dataset ( 192.com) as a population sampling frame. Methods Firstly, 192.c…

State of Immunity. The Politics of Vaccination in Twentieth- Century America
James Colgrove has written a book about the role of vaccination in epidemic disease that is primarily, although not exclusively, about how it affects children. He deals with smallpox, diphtheria, polio, measles and pertussis. His account concentrates on American attitudes and policy in the twentieth century and much of the evidence is drawn from New York. The book begins with the smallpox epidemics of 1893–4 and 1901–2 and ends with a discussion …

The Land Market in Mexico under Salinas
It is a central contention of urban political economy that changes in the macroeconomy will have demonstrable effects on land and housing markets. However, in few empirical studies has this relationship been investigated, particularly in cities of developing economies. The structure of the land market in Mexico under the changing economic conditions heralded by the election of Carlos Salinas de Gortari as Mexican President for the six-year ( sexe…

In Situ Measurements of Micro-Scale Surface Roughness of Sea Ice
Surface roughness at the centimetre and millimetre scale is an important factor governing radar backscatter, especially in the case of warm (>-5 degrees C) or highly saline sea ice types. Quantitative measurements of surface roughness are required as input to backscatter models. Several field techniques have been used to quantitatively measure the surface roughness of sea ice. These techniques usually posses at least one of the following obstacle…
Excavation of Prehistoric, Roman, and Saxon Deposits at Wraysbury, Berkshire
This report is concerned with a sampling excavation of Bronze Age, Roman and late Saxon/early medieval settlement traces near the church at Wraysbury, Berkshire. The most extensive evidence is for an agricultural settlement of the late ninth to twelfth centuries A. D. based on a series of ditched enclosures and trackways. The settlement moved location during the eleventh century. The environmental evidence is particularly important. A large fauna…
A History of the Vikings
Social Darwinianism and English Thought
History in One Dimension
Britain in 1914 was as near to revolution as it has ever been in the 20th century. A dispirited government, barely united and effetely led, groped its way between right-wing rebellion backed by military force in Ulster, and a militant syndicalist Labour movement freed from respectable leadership.
