Alluvial gold’ in Bronze Age Egypt and Nubia
‘alluvial gold mining’ has two meanings, but only in the context of archaeological studies of Bronze Age Nubia. • proposed clast mining in Nubia contrasts with alluvial placer mining dominant in goldfields globally. • alluvial placer mining of detrital gold can yield artefacts containing PGE alloys. • ‘alluvial clast mining’ only yields gold like the source lode, hence no PGE alloys. • PGE alloys are common in Bronze age gold artefacts, so placer…

Alienated Outsider or Integrated Courtier? Edward Stafford, Third Duke of Buckingham, 1498–1521 and the Royal Court
Edward Stafford, third duke of Buckingham (d. 1521), is a key example in the historiographical interpretation of relations between crown and nobility as difficult and in conflict under the first two Tudor kings, not least because of his execution for treason in 1521. In particular, he has been seen as an outsider at the Tudor court, playing little role there except perhaps on great set‐piece occasions. He was, in this interpretation, unable to ad…
Use of Tracer Elements for Estimating Community Exposure to Marcellus Shale Development Operations
Since 2009, unconventional natural gas development (UNGD) has significantly increased in Appalachia's Marcellus Shale formation. Elevations of fine particulate matter <2.5 μm (PM2.5), have been documented in areas surrounding drilling operations during well stimulation. Furthermore, many communities are experiencing increased industrial activities and probable UNGD air pollutant exposures. Recent studies have associated UNGD emissions with health…
Opening a Large Delivery Service Warehouse in the South Bronx
Mott Haven, a low-income neighborhood in New York City, suffers from increased air pollution and accommodates several industrial facilities and interstates. In 2018, a large delivery service warehouse opened. Our objectives are to characterize black carbon (BC), fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ), and noise in the community; model changes in traffic due to the facility opening; and estimate associated BC and noise changes. BC, PM 2.5 , and noise w…
The English Aristocracy and Mesne Feudalism in the Late Middle Ages
Historians have generally argued that the feudal system in the later Middle Ages in England had declined into obsolescence, at least as far as the aristocracy were concerned, and little has been written in the last half-century on the subject. Yet not only were the greater landowners assiduous in keeping records of tenants holding land from them by knight’s service, serjeanty and socage, but evidence from these sources suggests that feudal rights…
The Aerodynamics of Heavy Vehicles II: Trucks, Buses, and Trains
French Music, Culture, and National Identity, 1870-1939
New, insightful essays from musicologists, historians, art historians, and literary scholars reconsider the relationship of Debussy, Gauguin, Zola, and other great French creative artists to cultural and political trends during the Third Republic.

It is often held that where a word or passage is not found in all the manuscripts, but occupies different places in the manuscripts in which it does occur, that is a sign (though not an incontestable proof) that it was not in the original text but has been interpolated
Retreat from Boothia
Following the abandonment of John Ross's expedition ship Victory in Lord Mayor Bay in 1832, Ross's nephew and second-in-command, James Clark Ross, led a separate forward sledging group for much of the retreat to Somerset Island. While John Ross described the events of his own sledging group in his published narrative, he provided essentially no information on James Clark Ross's group. Recently, the journal kept by James Clark Ross during the retr…
Aquinas’s Exemplarism; Aquinas’s Voluntarism
Round Lord Mayor Bay with James Clark Ross
During John Ross's arctic expedition of 1829-33 in search of a northwest passage, approximately 1000 km of new coastline was mapped. Included in these new coastlines was Lord Mayor Bay on eastern Boothia Peninsula, which was surveyed by Ross's nephew and second-in-command, James Clark Ross, in 1830. The results of the Lord Mayor Bay survey effectively ended any chance of there being a northwest passage south and east of Somerset Island or west of…
