Evaluation of a Subsequent Deposition of Human Bodies in a Funerary Site in Sardinia (Italy) Using Entomological Evidence
Environmental elements, such as insects, plants, algae and microbes, may provide important information when reconstructing and interpreting past events. In archaeological contexts, the study of the insects associated with dead bodies can contribute to describe funerary practices. Funerary archaeoentomology is increasingly being utilized; however, there is a lack of application in ancient contexts, thousands of years old. During archaeological exc…
Characterisation of the entomo-fauna from the mummies of Castelsardo (Sardinia, Italy) and considerations about the minimum number of individuals (MNI) in funerary archaeoentomology
During renovations within the crypt of the Sant'Antonio Abate Cathedral in Castelsardo (Sardinia, Italy), an ossuary and several mummies were discovered. Entomological remains were collected in two different surveys: one performed by archaeologists in 2011 and a second one conducted by an entomologist in 2018. In 2018, Giordani and colleagues published a paper presenting the results of the entomo-fauna analysis of samples collected during the fir…
Seasonal Variation in Fungi in Beach Sand in Summertime
It appears reasonable that the sands, even on non-urban beaches, should be included in health monitoring programs in addition to the waters, and that access to them should be regulated by limiting the number of bathers with the aim of reducing the presence of pathogenic fungal species
Medical Student Perceptions of Near Peer Teaching within an Histology Course at the University of Sassari, Italy
Near peer teaching (NPT) is becoming recognized as a valuable instrument with advantages for both students and teachers. Despite the recognized benefits, NPT programmes are not usually embedded within university healthcare curricula and, to our knowledge, there have been few studies assessing medical students’ attitudes towards NPT for histology courses. Our study is the first that assess medical students’ perceptions concerning the value of NPT …
First evidence of vivianite in human bones from a third millennium BC Domus de Janas
Sardinia is an island located in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. Due to its position geologically acquired in the Middle Miocene (around 16 Ma ago), this island had a very strategic position in antiquity, as it was involved into all the trade routes that crossed the Mediterranean Sea; however, it developed original archaeological features up to the Iron Age. During the Final Neolithic, the Ozieri’s Culture developed throughout the Sardinian …
Anthropological and physicochemical investigation of the burnt remains of Tomb IX in the 'Sa Figu' hypogeal necropolis (Sassari, Italy) - Early Bronze Age
Excavations carried out in Tomb IX of the hypogeic necropolis of 'Sa Figu', near the village of Ittiri (Sassari, Italy), supplied burnt human bone remains and pottery unambiguously referred to the Early Bronze Age (characterised by the local culture of 'Bonnannaro'). Besides the anthropological study, we have investigated and evaluated the possibility of a funerary cremation practice in Sardinian pre-history, a subject that has previously not bee…
A study by thermal treatment and X-ray powder diffraction on burnt fragmented bones from tombs II, IV and IX belonging to the hypogeic necropolis of “Sa Figu” near Ittiri, Sassari (Sardinia, Italy)
