Successful treatment of intractable MDMA adverse reactions using acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine
Psychedelic treatments like MDMA can sometimes have side effects which persist despite management with Western medical approaches. In what follows, we present a case study of an individual who suffered from insomnia, anxiety, tinnitus, and more for months following MDMA therapy. Ultimately, her symptoms responded to management within the Traditional Chinese Medicine framework. We present this case in detail, and argue that psychedelic management,…
Ethnoichthyology of freshwater fish in Europe
Caviar, soup and other dishes made of Eurasian ruffe, Gymnocephalus cernua (Linnaeus, 1758)
Background Many freshwater fish species that were earlier appreciated by consumers have disappeared in the central, north and west European foodways. Although they were regarded as healthy and tasty, commercially captured marine species and highly processed products have nowadays replaced these fishes. The global transformations of the food system contribute to the erosion of many local foodstuffs. Habitual tastes disappear. Methods The article i…
The Decline in the Consumption of Stored Cod and Herring in Post-medieval and Early Industrialised England
The Fish Bones
The social history of coarse angling in England AD 1750-1950
Locker, Alison (2014): The social history of coarse angling in England AD 1750-1950. Anthropozoologica 49 (1): 99-107, DOI: 10.5252/az2014n1a07, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/az2014n1a07
Fish for the city
The growth of medieval cities in Northern Europe placed new demands on food supply, and led to the import of fish from increasingly distant fishing grounds. Quantitative analysis of cod remains from London provides revealing insight into the changing patterns of supply that can be related to known historical events and circumstances. In particular it identifies a marked increase in imported cod from the thirteenth century AD. That trend continued…
Interpreting the expansion of sea fishing in medieval Europe using stable isotope analysis of archaeological cod bones
Detecting the medieval cod trade
Maternal reflective functioning, attachment, and the transmission gap
The notion that maternal reflective functioning, namely the mother's capacity to hold her baby and his mental states in mind, plays a vital role in the intergenerational transmission of attachment is investigated (Fonagy, Gergely, Jurist, & Target, 2002 Fonagy, P., Gergely, G., Jurist, E. and Target, M. 2002. Affect regulation, mentalization, and the development of the self, New York: Other Books. [Google Scholar]; Fonagy et al., 1995 Fonagy, P.,…
Dark Age Economics' revisited
When did the market economy come to Europe? Fish might seem an unlikely commodity to throw light on the matter, but the authors use fish bones from English sites to offer a vivid account of the rise and rise of the market as a factor in European development from the late tenth century
The potential significance of dietary offsets for the interpretation of radiocarbon dates
Production, Imports and Status
Botanical and faunal remains from a 3rd–4th century AD Roman farm at the modern Great Holts Farm, Boreham have provided a picture of an agricultural system based predominantly on arable production. Agrarian innovation is evinced by the bones of exceptionally large cattle which, it is suggested, may have been imported as powerful tractors so as to exploit heavy clay soils more effectively. Although the farm house was a vernacular timber building, …
