Conditioned Pharmacotherapeutic Effects
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesize that psoriasis patients treated under a partial schedule of pharmacologic (corticosteroid) reinforcement would show less severe symptoms and relapse than those given the same amount of drug under standard conditions. Behavioral conditioning as an inherent component of many pharmacotherapeutic protocols has never been examined. METHODS: A double-blind, simple randomization intervention was conducted with 46 patie…

Old Yorkshire Stone Crafts
In 1938–40 I recorded several old Yorkshire stone crafts which were either dying out or had already ceased to be followed. These records were published as articles in The Quarry Managers' Journal during the years 1940 and 1941. As few students of folk life would have easy access to that material, some of the articles are now being reprinted here, without revision.Yorkshire, on account of its size and the diverse nature of its geological structure…

The English Stone-Slater's Craft
The combination of stone walls and stone roofs, harmonizing as they do with their surroundings, provides one of the most satisfying forms of vernacular architecture wherever it occurs. In England it characterizes the architecture of the Pennines and the Cotswolds and several other areas where suitably fissile sedimentary rocks are available. The term ‘stone-slates’, or in the Pennines ‘thakstones’, includes almost all kinds of fissile rock, rangi…
A Late Stone Age Site in the Erongo Mountains South West Africa
The main object of this paper is to draw attention to the existence of Late Stone Age sites in South West Africa where perishable organic remains are preserved, and in particular to the ‘Big Elephant Cave’, discovered by Dr E. R. Scherz in the Erongo Mountains. These lie some 10 to 15 miles north-north-east of Usakos, at approximately 21° 40′ S., 15° 40′ E., in a region of open grass steppe with stands of thornbush, mainly Acacia, with low sclero…

Patterned Walling in African Folk Building
In 1955 I spent some time at Kota Kota on the western shore of Lake Nyasa where I was fortunate to have as my guide Shehe Khalidi Bin-Amrani, a fine old Yao schoolmaster who, when I first met him, was busily teaching his pupils to read selections of the Koran from handled boards. His father, he told me, was born at Lindi, an important centre of the slave trade from where a well-defined trade route led to Lake Nyasa, but he eventually settled at K…

Some forms of Bushmen art
The majority of the rock paintings in Southern Africa belong to the last six hundred years although crude monochromes were being painted much earlier. The engravings, which include extinct animals, are, in part at least, older than the paintings but they also have continued down to recent times. It has frequently been asserted that the Bushmen could not have been the artists responsible for the rock paintings and engravings because today they do …

Upland Houses
The difficulty of building in mountainous country has resulted in similar solutions over a very wide area, and certain houses and farm buildings in western Britain have many features in common with those in Scandinavia, the Vosges, the Black Forest, Switzerland, Spain, Macedonia and even in the Himalayas. The most obvious method of building in hilly terrain is to create a level platform either entirely by excavation or by excavating the upper por…

Early Bafokeng settlement in South Africa
SYNOPSIS The material culture of the early Sotho‐Tswana settlement in South Africa falls into a distinct three‐fold pattern, one aspect of which is attributable to the Bafokeng. Excavation of early Bafokeng settlements in Basu‐toland has revealed a culture which is traceable also in the southern Transvaal, the north‐eastern Free State and in Natal. This culture is marked by paved circular hut floors for wattle and thatch beehive huts, cave dwelli…

The Soapstone Birds of Zimbabwe
Hogback Tombstones and the Anglo-Danish House
In a number of publications W. G. Collingwood has described the north country hogbacks and he has suggested that they were replicas in stone of the dwellings prevailing at the time among the people responsible for their erection. He was primarily concerned, however, with their development and dating, based upon the ornament employed. In this paper I have concentrated rather on the hogback as a representation of an Anglo-Danish house and its beari…

Early Ba-Fokeng rock shelter dwellings at Ntlo-Kholo
SYNOPSIS In the extensive rock shelter of Ntlo‐Kholo, in Basutoland, are remains of dwellings which have been in continued use for over two centuries. Instead of demolishing the old structure and replacing it by a new, the practice has been followed of adding the new huts to those already existing. In this way a complete evolutionary sequence has been preserved, affording a rare picture of an early eighteenth‐century Bantu settlement and the subs…
The Development of the Cruck Framework
The use of pairs of straight or curved timbcrs to support the ridge-pole of a primitive Td welling affords one of the most fundamental of all house types. In England, Scotland and Wales, it developed into the complex cruck framework which, although it has many close analogies in north-western Europe, is a unique feature of peasant architecture, Detailed studies of the cruck buildings of northern England have been made by Addy (1), Innocent (2) an…

The Oval House
The place of the oval house in the evolutionary development of folk architecture is of particular interest. Although sporadic in occurrence it has been responsible for one of the principal present-day dwelling types, the hipped-roof. Innocent contends that the round house was the earliest and that the rectangular plan evolved through the intermediate oval stage which was produced by the joining of two circular frameworks. He further postulates th…
