Enhancing monitoring in protected areas
Crowdsourced data, such as that from mobile fitness apps (MFAs), has the potential to transform tourism research. This opportunity is particularly valuable as tourism to protected areas (PAs) increases, making it more difficult to manage their environmental impacts. However, such data sources come with challenges. Therefore, their representativeness should be carefully evaluated, particularly as their use continues to grow. We use the Paiva Walkw…
The Acheulean Technocomplex of the Iberian Atlantic Margin as an Example of Technology Continuity Through the Middle Pleistocene
El yacimiento achelense de as Gándaras de Budiño
El yacimiento paleolítico de As Gándaras de Budiño es un yacimiento clave en la Prehistoria antigua de la Península Ibérica. Aunque el yacimiento ha sido excavado en diferentes ocasiones, muchos de los aspectos geológicos y arqueológicos no son bien conocidos. Entre estos problemas está la cronología, que inicialmente fue atribuida al MIS 2 -originando una fuerte controversia-, aunque en la actualidad podemos afirmar que tiene una cronología del …

Os artefactos líticos talhados do litoral de Vila Nova de Gaia
O litoral de Vila Nova de Gaia, a sul da cidade do Porto, constitui um trecho geoarqueológico ímpar para o estudo da ocupação quaternária da fachada ocidental da Ibéria. Neste trabalho apresentam-se algumas características tecno-tipológicas das indústrias líticas do litoral de Vila Nova de Gaia e avançam-se hipóteses sobre os respetivos contextos cronoestratigráficos, litoestratigrágicos e geoarqueológicos. De acordo com observações mais ou menos…

Flood hazard, Santa Cruz do Bispo Sector, Leça River, Portugal
This paper presents a 1:4000 scale flood hazard map, covering 4,2 km 2 of a sector belonging to the Lec a river watershed (Portugal), named the Santa Cruz do Bispo sector.The map is the outcome of the combination of several hydrodynamic parameters -velocity, water column height and flood-prone -defined for three return periods (T10, T50, T100), which were calculated.An intensity-probability matrix supports the hazard map which combines the modell…
Coupling Hydrotoponymy and GIS Cartography
The aim of this multidisciplinary study is to retrospectively examine hydrohistorical issues, namely hydrogeographic, hydrotoponymical and hydrogeological features, in order to assess the evolution of the Porto urban groundwater system (NW Portugal). To achieve these goals, the comparison of two main field inventories in a large urban region was performed by (i) historical mapping of sources and groundwater data from scientific reports spanning t…

Anthropology and the Politics of Indigeneity
This article is essentially a critical reflection on the transnational concept of Indigeneity, drawing from my long-standing involvement as a scholar-activist with indigenous peoples in Malaysia. With its multiple interpretations, configurations, and local inflections, the concept of Indigeneity has attracted much debate and contestation. It has become a significant political strategy in the counter-hegemonic indigenous social movements against e…
Alter-Native 'Development
The goal of this article is to outline an indigenous form of social ecology offered as an alternative development model. Based on the normative system of the Orang Asli (Malaysian Aborigines), this model is characterised by various social, cultural and ecological ideas and practices undergirding the interconnected conditions of equality, sustainability and peace, which engenders a better life for all within the community. I contend that this mode…
Modernity and Malaysia
Bringing together over thirty years of detailed ethnographic research on the Menraq of Malaysia, this fascinating book analyzes and documents the experience of development and modernization in tribal communities. Descendents of hunter-gatherers who have inhabited Southeast Asia for about 40,000 years, the Menraq (also known as Semang or Negritos) were nomadic foragers until they were resettled in a Malaysian government-mandated settlement in 1972…
