Assumptions in intelligence analysis
This paper critiques the definitions of assumptions in intelligence analysis, highlighting their lack of clarity and precision. It proposes more specific definitions for assumption, presumption, and implicit assumption, emphasizing the overlooked importance of presumptions. The paper aims to enhance the understanding of assumptions among intelligence analysts, improving their ability to identify and work with various types of assumptions. The dis…
The Federalist Frontier
A pleasant combination of familiar and fresh, The Federalist Frontier reexamines the political dynamics of the Northwest Territory and demonstrates the persistence of the Federalist Party’s influence in Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. Conventional histories claim that Federalists fell out of political favor in the West following Thomas Jefferson’s election to the presidency, but author Kristopher Maulden argues that Federalists adapted well to chang…

Hockey
HARDY, Stephen, and Andrew C. HOLMAN – Hockey: A Global History. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2018. Pp. 582. While most scholars agree that the modern sport of ice hockey was born in Montreal in or about 1875, Stephen Hardy and Andrew Holman, the authors of Hockey: A Global History, point out that the story is not so simple: the sport had antecedents, so Montreal should more accurately be seen as the place of “the game’s re-invention” (p…
One Colour, (at Least) Two Minerals
Distinctive mulberry paintings found in northern Australia, particularly those of the Kimberley region, have been argued to represent some of the oldest surviving rock art on the continent. Significant research efforts continue to focus on resolving the age of these motifs, but comparatively little attention has been given to understanding their physical composition and potential source(s). In a pilot investigation, we conclude that (at least) tw…
Contrary to the ryght and to the order of the lawe
Furst ye must haue the roote of Iustice withowt the which the tree of comon welth can not contynew'. 1 Thus wrote Edmund Dudley, not without some irony perhaps, from the Tower of London as he awaited execution in 1509. Dudley and Richard Empson were the primary agents of, and were made the scapegoats for, Henry VII's fiscal exactions from his subjects, which many contemporaries perceived as unjust: Dudley 'excecutyd his power to the grete hurt an…
Direct dating indicates a Mid‐Holocene Age for archaic rock engravings in arid Central Australia
Archaic rock engravings are found widely across the arid interior of Australia and are thought to represent an early pan‐continental tradition. A late Pleistocene age is assumed because of extensive weathering, but attempts to test this by direct dating have been unsuccessful. We use AMS 14 C dating of calcium oxalate skins covering archaic engravings at two rock shelter sites in Central Australia (Wanga East and Puritjarra), constrained by 14 C …
Glen Thirsty
The archaeology of Glen Thirsty, a desert well in the Amadeus Basin, Central Australia, illustrates the changing relationship between the ranges and desert lowlands during the last 1500 years. Historical records and Aboriginal accounts of the site document the regional importance of Glen Thirsty as one of the few wells in this part of the desert. Archaeological excavations and rock art research show that despite its proximity to Puritjarra with i…
What happened at 1500—1000 cal. BP in Central Australia? Timing, impact and archaeological signatures
This paper reviews the late Holocene archaeology of Central Australia. The last 1500 years saw significant changes in the archaeological record in this part of the Australian arid zone, with shifts in settlement pattern, site histories, resource use, tool inventories and rock art. Much of the evidence points to regional population growth, beginning 1500—1000 cal. BP and coinciding with expansion of summer-rainfall grassland and more frequent pala…
A Reinvestigation of the Archaeology of Geosurveys Hill, Northern Simpson Desert
In October 1962 Norman Tindale was fl own to the Geosurveys Hill area, deep in the Simpson dunefield (Figure 1), to follow up reports of prehistoric occupation exposed on interdunal pans in the area (Anon. 1962). Tindale, then at the South Australian Museum, had been invited to make the trip by Reg Sprigg, Managing Director of Geosurveys of Australia Ltd, one of several companies prospecting the Simpson Desert for oil and gas in the 1960s (Sprigg…
