The Spacetimes of the Scythian Dead
The Eurasian Iron Age Scythians, in all their regional iterations, are known for their lavish burials found in various kinds of tumuli.

Based, at least partially, on the amounts and types of grave goods found within these mounds, the Scythians are usually modeled as militant, patriarchal mobile pastoralists, with rigid social structures. Yet, such interpretations are also…
Customizing Health Security Preparedness Activities in Sub-Saharan Africa
The International Health Regulations (IHR) continue to be one of the driving forces behind health security preparedness in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).

Thi…

Recruitment was conducted through word of mouth and a snowball approach beginning with two well-known HIV education and prevention outreach centres in southeaster…

This article presents case studies of two lo…

AIDS is forcing urban policymakers to engage in unusual efforts at large and nonincremental change while possessing relatively little understanding of the ultimate nature and course of the disease. A variety of uncertainties exist, involving the future scope and deve…
