Gateway to the Yayla
Recent ground surveys in the Samtskhe-Javakheti region of southern Georgia have investigated a previously undocumented group of sites along a ridge overlooking the upper Kura river valley. Features and artefacts recorded at Varneti suggest long but episodic occupation from the Chalcolithic to the later medieval periods, with prominent phases in the Early to Middle Bronze Age and the Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age. Varneti has the potential to …
Impact of Internet Use on Loneliness and Contact with Others Among Older Adults
BACKGROUND: Older adults are at increased risk of experiencing loneliness and depression, particularly as they move into different types of care communities. Information and communication technology (ICT) usage may help older adults to maintain contact with social ties. However, prior research is not consistent about whether ICT use increases or decreases isolation and loneliness among older adults. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to exa…
Fortification and Landscape Transformation in Late Antique Pessinus
Fortified structures were a prominent feature of urban landscapes in late antique Anatolia. They served not only as defensive barriers and oppressive strongholds but also as monuments that delineated residential and inhabited spaces and enclosed zones of administrative and political power. They provided visual and physical focal points that could alter a city’s layout, and were seen and felt daily by city-dwellers. Yet, despite the significance o…

Blessing the Fields? A Study of Late-medieval Ampullae from England and Wales
An Increase in reported finds of metal ampullae enables a reappraisal of this distinctive class of pilgrim souvenir in England and Wales, Norfolk in particular: their form, decoration, distribution, context and the physical signs of their production and use. This sheds light on an aspect of late-medieval culture and custom; additionally, it encourages reflection on the kinds of data that metal-detectorists currently record and report. The thesis …
Old wine in a new technology, or a different type of digital divide
Gender differences exist in both general and specific uses of information and communication technologies (ICTs). Most of this research has focused on computers and the internet to the exclusion of mobile phones. Little research has examined gender differences in specific types of mobile phone usage, especially among youth. This issue is examined using data from a random sample of middle-school students. Although gender differences exist at the bi…
An archaeology of late antique pilgrim flasks
Pilgrimage happens when a place becomes the focus of veneration because of its association with a person or event. Pilgrim cults from the past can sometimes be identified by grouping certain types of material evidence, although interpretation of a cult's historical meaning is only possible once the material has been fully assessed. This study considers what sorts of information can be drawn from the archaeological context of a group of clay ampul…

Bureaucracy and Professionalism in the Social Services
A multidimensional approach to the study of bureaucracy and professionalism among 200 social service workers provides general support for two hypotheses. The conflict hypothesis is that, as perceived by the workers, the bureaucratic dimensions of hierarchy of authority, formalized rules, procedural specificity, and impersonality are inversely associated with workers' professionalism. The congruence hypothesis is that an extensive division of labo…
Social Movements, Violence, and Change
Anthropological Studies in Hazardous Environments
Losses arising from natural disasters continue to mount world-wide, though the most alarming social and economic dislocations are occurring in developing countries. How effectively social institutions protect against and adjust to catastrophic events is an issue which has generated a growing body of research. This paper surveys anthropological contributions to natural-disaster studies and considers their relevance for disaster mitigation policy. …
Avoiding Redundancy
Redundancy between graduate and undergraduate social work education is a waste of both program and student time and resources. Graduate programs have several alternative methods for decreasing redundancy, and some of the advantages and disadvantages of three such methods are considered here. After briefly presenting the historical development of the advanced placement issue and identifying the primary goals of undergraduate social work education,…

Disaster Warning and Communication Processes in Two Communities
This paper is based on a study of disaster warning in the communities of Crescent City, California and Hilo, Hawaii, both of which have had a history of tsunami threats and warnings. Disaster warning is viewed in the paper as a process consisting of a number of interrelated activities and procedures in which a variety of organizations and individuals become involved. The study indicates that local officials such as those in Crescent City and Hilo…

The Family and Individual Social Participation
T HE HYPOTHESIS presented in this paper is that the participation of an individual is a considerable degree a function of the participation of the family. It says that if husbands participate, wives usually do, and if husbands and wives participate, children usually do, so that participation is chiefly a family trait. Such an hypothesis, if correct, is of considerable importance for sociology and for work. In a democratic society, participation i…

The Spacing of Births in the Families of University Graduates
In 944 completed families of Cornell University graduates of the classes of 1919, 1920, and 1921, first births occur about 2.5-2.9 years after marriage. The intervals between successive births ar usually longer than the interval between marriage and the first birth. In families of a given size the average length of the interval increases for each successive birth, the first birth coming after the shortest time interval and the last usually after …

Culture of a Contemporary Rural Community
Excerpts from the report Foreword: This is a report on one of six communities which were studied contemporaneously by six different participant observers or field workers during 1940. Each study was sufficiently independent of the other five to make separate treatment and publication desirable, but the reader will gain full understanding of the findings only when he has read the reports of the six studies as a group. The analysis of Irwin communi…
