Mozambique Stone Age Landscape
Since the publication of our 2016 review mapping the Stone Age of Mozambique (Gonçalves et al., 2016), Stone Age archaeological research in the country has intensified significantly. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of 654 Stone Age sites, including 272 newly documented sites. The recent discoveries in a total of more than 400 sites, discovered primarily through systematic survey campaigns between 2010 and 2025, represent an important…
Planning place-based health policies
Health policy governance with place-based approaches is a growing reality configured within a network of institutions producing actions that link health services with community needs. This paper aims to understand this place-based collaborative governance functioning and how it can be improved for better effectiveness, efficiency, transparency and accountability. Using a qualitative methodology, through the realization of interviews to the respon…
The Non-Adult Burials of Cabeço da Amoreira, Muge (Portugal)
Constitucionalismo contemporâneo
Este trabalho teve como foco entender a situação constitucional israelense, considerando a ausência de um documento formal intitulado "Constituição" do país. A ideia foi estudar os elementos do direito na teoria - e, dentro do possível, na prática - da sociedade israelense, e identificar possíveis semelhanças com o brasileiro. Partindo do conceito de constituição atual e das principais teorias, a Parte I traz uma abordagem teórica do constitucion…
Mesolithic and Chalcolithic Mandibular Morphology
Human skeletal remains are routinely used to examine cultural and biological aspects of past populations. Yet, archaeological specimens are frequently fragmented/incomplete and so excluded from analyses. This leads to decreased sample sizes and to potentially biased results. Digital methods are now frequently used to restore/estimate the original morphology of fragmented/incomplete specimens. Such methods include 3D digitisation and Geometric Mor…
Collaborative place-based health governance systems
This study aimed to assess the Baixo Vouga sub-region (Portugal) governance system through 15 interviews with leaders of institutions with decision-making power and provide healthcare. The interviews were subjected to a content analysis, organized in matrices by cases, categories, subcategories, and indicators. Recording units were extracted from the interviews to produce data for each indicator. A Collaborative Place-based Governance Framework s…

Testing the reliability of CT scan‐based dental wear magnitude scoring
OBJECTIVES: Digital models are now frequently used in biological anthropology (bioanthropology) research. Despite several studies validating this type of research, none has examined if the assessment of dental wear magnitude based on Computerized Tomography (CT) scans is reliable. Thus, this study aims to fill this gap and assess if dental wear magnitude scoring based on CT scans provides results consistent with scoring based on direct observatio…
Resiliência urbana e serviços sociais de interesse geral
Os Serviços de Interesse Geral (SeIG) operacionalizam um tipo de modelo de sociedade, posicionando-se entre as leis de mercado e os mecanismos que atenuam as suas falhas. O planejamento dos Serviços Sociais de Interesse Geral (SeSIG) assume um papel relevante para a (sobre)vivência digna de todos os cidadãos, conferindo-lhes pertença e cidadania através de princípios de acessibilidade e coesão territorial. A primeira parte deste artigo posiciona-…
The Early Neolithic at the Muge Shellmiddens (Portugal)
This article, on the Early Neolithic pottery from the Cabeço da Amoreira shellmidden in the Muge region of central Portugal, presents a detailed review of the evidence to date and a systematic analysis of the decorative and mineralogical characteristics of the stratified and radiocarbon-dated ceramic assemblage. A homogenous pottery manufacturing tradition seems to be present right from the beginning, including both local and non-local ceramics. …
Assessing the reliability of virtual reconstruction of mandibles
OBJECTIVES: Mandibular morphological variation is often used to examine various aspects of human palaeobiology. However, fossil and archeological skeletal remains are often fragmented/distorted and so are frequently excluded from studies. This leads to decreased sample sizes and, potentially, to biased results. Thus, it is of interest to restore the original anatomy of incomplete/distorted specimens. Thin plate splines (TPS), commonly used in Geo…
Monte do Carrascal 2 (southern Portugal)
Middle Stone Age Technologies in Mozambique
Southeast Africa has become an important region for understanding the development of the Middle Stone Age ( MSA ) and Anatomically Modern Humans. Due to its location between east and southern Africa, Mozambique is a key region for evaluating the development of Homo sapiens and the MSA across Africa. Here, we present the first results of lithic analyses of MSA assemblages collected during survey and testing in the Niassa and Massingir regions of M…
Perspetivas Sobre Resiliência Territorial
Num quadro, em que a propagação das incertezas se mistura com a falência de abordagens espartilhadas ao desenvolvimento das sociedades e com o crescimento das interações (nem sempre correspondendo a integrações) que impactam no devir dos territórios, os estudos territoriais que adotam o referencial da resiliência ganham crescente centralidade. Esta abordagem traz contributos novos para equacionar oportunidades de desenvolvimento sustentável injet…
Portable art and personal ornaments from Txina-Txina
This paper reports on preliminary fieldwork at the Later Stone Age site of Txina-Txina in Mozambique. Excavation yielded a long stratigraphic sequence, a large lithic assemblage, a unique decorated gastropod shell fragment and two ostrich eggshell beads-the first of their type recovered from a Stone Age context in Mozambique
Crise pós-2008 nas cidades portuguesas da NUT III Oeste
Neste artigo, avaliam-se os impactos da crise pós-2008 no desemprego, na acessibilidade a fontes de rendimento e a bens essenciais e nas situações de pobreza e de exclusão vivenciadas pelas famílias residentes nas cidades da NUT III Oeste1 (Alcobaça, Caldas da Rainha, Peniche e Torres Vedras). Os resultados obtidos baseiam-se em trabalho de campo (inquiriram-se 387 famílias, recolhendo-se informação referente a 1.028 indivíduos), realizado entre …
A Google-Based Freeware Solution for Archaeological Field Survey and Onsite Artifact Analysis
This paper introduces a new freeware digital system, based on Google/Android platforms, designed to be a fully integrated and customizable solution to record, manage, and share archaeological survey data. The core of the system is two custom smartphone/tablet applications, through which surveyors are able to retrieve geographical coordinates and relevant attribute data from archaeological locations, but also to perform onsite analysis of artifact…

Resilience, replacement and acculturation in the Mesolithic/Neolithic transition
Regiões, cidades e comunidades resilientes
Os efeitos da sucessão/sobreposição de crises ambientais, de insegurança, de governação, financeiras, econômicas e sociais diluíram-se no quotidiano de boa parte das regiões do planeta. Essa presença constante destrói a estabilidade e a previsibilidade associadas aos estádios mais avançados de progresso. A turbulência deixou de ser exceção e passou a ser regra. Neste artigo, discute-se o que vulnerabiliza os territórios e capacita as regiões, as …

O impacto dos estilos educativos parentais e do desenvolvimento vocacional no rendimento escolar de adolescentes
Compreender a complexidade da problemática do in/sucesso e/ou do abandono escolar, tem sido uma das preocupações dominantes da investigação nas últimas décadas, sendo não só objeto do interesse geral, como também tem vindo a municiar os discursos críticos em relação à dita escola de massas. Neste sentido, a presente investigação incide na análise dos preditores familiares e individuais do rendimento escolar de adolescentes. Participaram neste est…

Middle and Late Stone Age of the Niassa region, northern Mozambique. Preliminary results
Vale Boi (Algarve, Portugal) and the Solutrean in Southwestern Iberia
Located at the crossroads of two rather different ecological and cultural worlds (Mediterranean Spain and Portuguese Atlantic), the site of Vale Boi is a crucial element in understanding the economic and social traits of the communities that inhabited Southwestern Iberia during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). Combining an open-air with a rockshelter component, Vale Boi presents a lengthy Solutrean record starting with a Proto-Solutrean phase foll…
