The Image of God and Prayer in the Statements of Young People Aged 15-19 from Southeastern Poland
This article aims to explore the image of God and prayer practices among young people aged 15-19 from southeastern Poland. The study was conducted between 2019 and 2020 using an online survey (CAWI) on a sample of 1171 students. Cluster and exploratory factor analysis identified three types of God images: transcendent, nature-based, and human construct. The results suggest that the image of God influences the frequency and context of prayer. Adol…
Reminiscences of Plains Archaeology, Pre- and Post-World War II
In my three early field seasons in the Plains, I had worked only in Nebraska. The summer of 1939 was with Carlyle Shreve Smith, the summer of 1940 was with Robert Cumming, Jr., and in 19411 worked under Marvin (Gus) C. Kivett (Figures 1 and 2). I returned to the Plains for a season 11 years later in 1952, this time under the auspices of the Smithsonian's River Basin Surveys Program. My introduction to Plains archaeology was foreordained through m…
Pilot Study of Burin Use-Wear from Shanidar Cave, Iraq
Microscopic use-wear is present on all four burins studied. The four heavily patinated chert artifacts from the Upper Paleolithic Baradostian horizon, radiocarbon date between 28,000 and 33,000 B.P. Burin usage originates and extends from the trihedral bit to adjacent facets; probable haft wear traces are present on three of the four tools
Red Ochre and Human Evolution
This paper evaluates red ochre phenomena as a fossil indicator for developments of human capacities and red color choice in cultures. The archaeological record reveals that, from Early Palaeolithic to historical times, the collectors and users of red ochre have always been a distinctive minority (probable exceptions being the Magdalenian and Paleo-Indian peoples). Nevertheless, red ochre practices have persisted till the present, and the patterns…

William Duncan Strong 1899-1962
just one day short of his 63rd birthday.This was a tremendous loss to his family, his friends and colleagues, and to the science of anthropology.He was one of the major figures in anthropology in the twentieth century, contributing as a field worker, a theorist, and a teacher.It is gratifying to all of us who had long been associated with him to know that he had a rich and a highly productive life.His personality had many facets, which were refle…
Shantok Influence on Eastern Long Island
Carlyle Smith, on pages 159-62 of The Archaeology of Coastal New York, groups 2 historic sites, Pantigo and Fort Corchaug, on eastern Long Island with 2 historic Connecticut sites, Shantok and Noank, in what he calls the 'Shantok' aspect, following the taxonomic scheme of McKern (1939). After some deliberation, I find myself believing that, while on the face of it, the connections between Fort Corchaug and Pantigo may seem plausible, actually a s…
