Loess provenance in the westernmost part of the lower Danube Basin, Serbia
Being Seen Is Believing
Like many other lowland South American groups described in the literature, Ache give a higher epistemic value to visually experiencing events, a sensibility that some have argued has impeded lasting conversions by Amerindians to Christianity given that the evidentiary practices of the latter can only be expressed through language. In this article, I qualify this idea by showing how the Ache acceptance of the idea of “being seen” by an omnipresent…
The Big Circles in Jordan
In this study, we provide the first absolute ages for a Big Circle megalithic structure in Jordan, using rock surface luminescence dating of the buried surface of rocks collected from circle J4 in southern Jordan. Five rocks were used for this study. All rocks showed evidence of previous daylight exposure before being used in the construction of the circle. The exposure was sufficient to bleach the latent luminescence signal to a negligible level…
Luminescence dating of anthropogenic deposits from Tall Zarʿa in the Jordan Valley
This study uses quartz‐based optically stimulated luminescence dating to determine when a massive fortification wall (W11186) was constructed in the archaeological site of Tall Zarʿa in the Jordan Valley. A total of 11 samples of sediments were taken from a trench on the north side of the wall ( extramuros ). The extracted quartz grains had good luminescence characteristics and were identified as well bleached by comparison with feldspar infrared…

Erosive Response of Non-Glaciated Pyrenean Headwater Catchments to the Last Major Climate Transition and Establishing Interglacial Conditions
Non-glaciated mountain headwater catchments feature high-resolution geomorphic archives, which provide important insight into erosive processes and sediment dynamics in mountain ranges. As such the Valle de la Fueva catchments in the southern Pyrenees present high-lying talus remnants, extensive denudation surfaces (pediments), deeply incised tributary ravines, and low-lying fluvial-cut terraces. Based on geomorphic analyses and absolute dating u…

The Effects of Distraction on Pursuit Rotor Learning, Performance and Reminiscence
Five groups of thirty subjects were equated for performance on the pursuit rotor, and were then given massed practice under conditions of no distraction, a little, medium or considerable distraction, as well as a control distracting condition. It was found that performance declined proportionally to the amount of distraction given and that the effect of distraction was on performance only, and not on learning. During a subsequent rest pause half …
