From the Green Zone to Havana Syndrome
Most foreign ministries use a rotational system in deploying personnel abroad, with diplomats moving between foreign posts every few years and earning salary premiums based on the risks, dangers, and hardships associated with different foreign posts. We examine rotationality and hardship in diplomacy, identifying these as spatial and institutional practices for managing a global network of diplomatic personnel and sites. These are institutionaliz…
Striped pants and Birkenstocks
The 2013 amalgamation of the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) and the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) has facilitated far-reaching changes in how the merged department, Global Affairs Canada (GAC), organizes expertise and the day-to-day work of its professional officer personnel. This paper examines this institutional change by approaching GAC as a highly differentiated workplace and work force in whi…
A possible case of neurofibromatosis in an archaeological skeleton
The skeletal remains described in this paper are those of a possible early sufferer of von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis, a tumour-forming disorder that occurs quite commonly today. This case is the earliest described from archaeological remains. As such, it provides possible confirmation for the problematical literary documentation of the disorder's presence and allows direct appraisal of its skeletal manifestations.

Age determination from dental microstructure in juveniles
The crypts outside St Bride's Church, London, contain a documented collection of skeletal remains dating from the mid‐18th century. Some of these remains became mixed during post‐war restoration work on the church. The worst example of such mixing involves ten infants that were boxed all together with their corresponding coffin plates. All the infants were aged between 1 and 4 years at death. Recognized skeletal aging criteria proved unsuccessful…
Growth and threshold weaning weights among captive rhesus macaques
Interspecific analyses of infant growth and the time to maternal reconception (or weaning) demonstrate a consistent threshold for weaning weight at close to four times neonate weight, irrespective of the duration of lactation (Lee et al., [1991] J. Zool. Lond. 225 :99–114). Intraspecific variation in the attainment of a threshold weaning weight was determined in a sample of 31 captive infant rhesus macaques, where growth between birth and subsequ…
Variation in cross‐striation number between striae in an archaeological population
The observed variation in the number of cross‐striations between Striae of Retzius in a sample of teeth from juveniles buried in the crypts of a London City church is presented. Estimates of intra‐and inter‐observer error in making such cross‐striation counts are discussed, together with implications for the estimation of age from perikymata counts on the tooth surface
Palaeopathology of the Kechipawan site
Burial of an early 19th century suicide in the crypt of St Bride's church, fleet street
A skull from the St Bride's collection showing evidence of gunshot wounds is described. The position of the wounds suggests that they were self-inflicted. Examination of historical records confirms that the individual committed suicide by shooting himself in the mouth. The fact that this individual was buried in the crypt of St Bride's church in 1821 is discussed in relation to early 19th century attitudes to suicide
