Winter camp’ 1917: Integrated conflict archaeology on the Messines Ridge 1914-1918 (Belgium)
Integrated research using aerial photography, proximal soil sensing, historical research and excavations of an unusual First World War site in Flanders (Belgium) is presented. Aerial photography revealed a grid of 5x6 huts unusually close to the front line. Geophysical research indicates good preservation of these structures. A targeted excavation was carried out. The results give insight into the structure of a military camp built in autumn 1917…
Grafmonument Jan Samijn door Bentos (Achilles De Martelaere), Westerbegraafplaats
Een van de meest opvallende grafmonumenten op de Westerbegraafplaats is ongetwijfeld dat van Jan Samijn (1869-1933). Het werd ontworpen en gerealiseerd in 1934 door Achilles De Maertelaere (Bentos, Gent 1882-1964). Jan Samijn was een sterk geapprecieerde vakbondsleider die de rechten van de textielarbeiders in Gent verdedigde
Portretten van lachende vrouwen: Door Achilles De Maertelaere (Bentos)
Hoewel hij nooit getrouwd was en, voor zover wij weten, nooit een relatie had, schilderde Achilles De Maertelaere, alias Bentos, veel portretten van vrouwen. Sommige van die portretten behoren tot zijn meest expressieve werken

Understanding the landscape dynamics from a devastated to revived cultural landscape: The case of the First World War in Flanders through the lens of landscape patterns

Using the past to indicate the possible presence of relics in the present-day landscape: The Western Front of the Great War in Belgium
The First World War (WWI) had a notable influence on the landscape at the former Western Front in Belgium. Research on a landscape scale is necessary to understand the destructive and constructive impact of the war and its consequences for the post-war landscape in a holistic manner. This paper focuses on the trajectory and impact analysis of three study areas with contrasting landscape types and aims to indicate possible preserved military relic…
Revealing the preservation of First World War shell hole landscapes based on a landscape change study and LiDAR
The surface scars of the First World War (WWI; 1914–1918) are rapidly disappearing due to modern and fast changing landscapes. Therefore, there is a need to monitor landscape relicts that mark our past. This study examines depressions caused by shelling. These shell holes are still present today and are one of the last remains of the military impact during the 4 years long stalemate on the Western Front. Shell hole landscapes are until now overlo…

The archaeology of world war I tanks in the Ypres Salient (Belgium): A non‐invasive approach
In the past decade, the research of archaeological remains from World War I has become mainstream. This article uses non‐destructive techniques to investigate the possible material remains of tank warfare in Belgium. During World War I, tanks were used for the first time as a ‘land battleship’ in order to break through the stalemate in the trenches. During the Battle of Messines and the Third Battle of Ypres (1917), tanks were used in Belgium to …
Geometric stone settings in the Yustyd Valley and its surroundings (Altai Mountains, Russia): Bronze Age ‘virtual dwellings’ and associated structures
Testing of multi-coil FDEM sensors on a field model with magnetic susceptibility contrast
Introduction The main advantage of frequency domain electromagnetic induction (FDEM) sensors is the simultaneous measurement of both electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility. Nevertheless, this sensor type is still not routinely used in geoarchaeological prospection (English Heritage, 2008). Although both the electrical conductivity and the magnetic susceptibility measurement has been related to electrical resistivity and magnetometer …
Ground‐penetrating radar survey over bronze age circular monuments on a sandy soil, complemented with electromagnetic induction and fluxgate gradiometer data
This paper presents a ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) survey over two circular structures originally surrounding Bronze Age burial mounds at the site of Koekelare (western Belgium). The region is characterized by sandy soils. Their low water storage capacity and the consequent moisture contrasts in dry summers played an important role in the detection of over 1000 Bronze Age funeral monuments through aerial archaeology in the past few decades. At …
Genetic Analysis of a Scytho-Siberian Skeleton and Its Implications for Ancient Central Asian Migrations
The excavation of a frozen grave on the Kizil site (dated to be 2500 years old) in the Altai Republic (Central Asia) revealed a skeleton belonging to the Scytho-Siberian population. DNA was extracted from a bone sample and analyzed by autosomal STRs (short tandem repeats) and by sequencing the hypervariable region I (HV1) of the mitochondrial DNA. The resulting STR profile, mitochondrial haplotype, and haplogroup were compared with data from mode…
Le point de vue du Secours catholique
L'instauration dans chaque département d'une CASU a-t-elle contribué à une meilleure prise en compte de l'urgence sociale, la plupart du temps exprimée en demande de secours financiers ? Le Secours catholique donne une première impression en demi-teinte. Les délais de traitement des dossiers n'ont globalement pas été améliorés. Les petits départements ont su cependant rapidement trouver un mode d'organisation satisfaisant alors que les départemen…
