Genetic and historical perspectives on the early medieval inhumations from the Menga dolmen, Antequera (Spain)
Despite poor preservation, DNA of Menga1 was captured and sequenced. • Menga1’s ancestry consistent with that of medieval groups from Spain. • Contributions from Iberian and North African sources into Menga1’s ancestry. • Menga dolmen used as a medieval burial place, four millennia after it was built. The Menga dolmen, part of the UNESCO World Heritage site at Antequera (Malaga, Spain), was built in the fourth millennium BCE in the Neolithic peri…
Paisagens islâmicas na Área Metropolitana de Lisboa
A história do Islão e dos muçulmanos no Portugal contemporâneo está indelevelmente marcada pelas dinâmicas coloniais, mas também por processos pós-coloniais. As próprias configurações institucionais do “Islão público” na sociedade portuguesa revelam esta importância e, simultaneamente, criaram as condições para uma hierarquização de determinadas vozes e projectos entre os muçulmanos.Partindo de três pesquisas sustentadas em trabalho de campo etno…
The genomic history of the Iberian Peninsula over the past 8000 years
Genomics of the Iberian Peninsula Ancient DNA studies have begun to help us understand the genetic history and movements of people across the globe. Focusing on the Iberian Peninsula, Olalde et al. report genome-wide data from 271 ancient individuals from Iberia (see the Perspective by Vander Linden). The findings provide a comprehensive genetic time transect of the region. Linguistics analysis and genetic analysis of archaeological human remains…
From the abandonment of small agriculture to the drama of rural fires
On a recurrent way we verify annual rural fires in Portugal namely since 1975 by combination of natural factors, negligent and criminal behaviors and failure of (para) State entities. In 2017 the Portuguese were confronted with two enormous tragedies in the North and Centre of the country with losses in goods, animals and especially 112 human lives. Over two centuries the forest had a huge increase in a uneven agrarian structure, being most posse…
Untangling Neolithic and Bronze Age mitochondrial lineages in South Asia
Two key moments shaped the extant South Asian gene pool within the last 10 thousand years (ka): the Neolithic period, with the advent of agriculture and the rise of the Harappan/Indus Valley Civilisation; and Late Bronze Age events that witnessed the abrupt fall of the Harappan Civilisation and the arrival of Indo-European speakers. This study focuses on the phylogeographic patterns of mitochondrial haplogroups H2 and H13 in the Indian Subcontine…
Maternal relationships within an Iron Age burial at the High Pasture Cave, Isle of Skye, Scotland
Eficiência técnica da produção de milho no estado de São Paulo
O presente artigo analisou a eficiência técnica da produção paulista de milho, empregando a metodologia de metafronteira estocástica, com base nos microdados do Levantamento Censitário das Unidades de Produção Agropecuárias do estado de São Paulo, realizado pela Secretaria de Agricultura e Abastecimento, para o ano-safra 2007/08 e informações de aptidão do solo, clima e relevo, utilizada para segmentar os produtores em grupos de alta, média e bai…
Atheists on the Santiago Way
In the past 30 years, the camino to Santiago de Compostela has been recreated as an eclectic pilgrimage, open to both religious and atheist travelers. Following previous work on motivational orientations and religion, we conducted a study examining atheist versus religious pilgrims' motivations to walk the Santiago way. We assessed pilgrims (N = 360) at various parts of the northern Spanish camino using a questionnaire that measured motivations t…
Gandy, Matthew. 2014. The fabric of space
In this book Matthew Gandy examines the ways through which city and nature dialectically coconstruct each other in a process traversed with cultural, historic, economic and political features. Using archives, interviews, and ethnographic observations, the author establishes data about six metropolises -Paris, Berlin, London, Lagos, Mumbai, and Los Angeles -each chapter focusing exclusively on one of these cities. The author builds upon a triple c…
Genetic and archaeological perspectives on the initial modern human colonization of southern Asia
It has been argued recently that the initial dispersal of anatomically modern humans from Africa to southern Asia occurred before the volcanic “supereruption” of the Mount Toba volcano (Sumatra) at ∼74,000 y before present (B.P.)—possibly as early as 120,000 y B.P. We show here that this “pre-Toba” dispersal model is in serious conflict with both the most recent genetic evidence from both Africa and Asia and the archaeological evidence from South…
The Expansion of mtDNA Haplogroup L3 within and out of Africa
Although fossil remains show that anatomically modern humans dispersed out of Africa into the Near East ∼100 to 130 ka, genetic evidence from extant populations has suggested that non-Africans descend primarily from a single successful later migration. Within the human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) tree, haplogroup L3 encompasses not only many sub-Saharan Africans but also all ancient non-African lineages, and its age therefore provides an upper boun…
Pleistocene‐Holocene boundary in Southern Arabia from the perspective of human mtDNA variation
It is now known that several population movements have taken place at different times throughout southern Arabian prehistory. One of the principal questions under debate is if the Early Holocene peopling of southern Arabia was mainly due to input from the Levant during the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B, to the expansion of an autochthonous population, or some combination of these demographic processes. Since previous genetic studies have not been able …
Evaluation of physical activity programmes for elderly people - a descriptive study using the EFQM' criteria
Our findings suggest that although there are some good practices in PA programmes, there are still relevant areas that require improvement
Population history of the Red Sea—genetic exchanges between the Arabian Peninsula and East Africa signaled in the mitochondrial DNA HV1 haplogroup
Archaeological studies have revealed cultural connections between the two sides of the Red Sea dating to prehistory. The issue has still not been properly addressed, however, by archaeogenetics. We focus our attention here on the mitochondrial haplogroup HV1 that is present in both the Arabian Peninsula and East Africa. The internal variation of 38 complete mitochondrial DNA sequences (20 of them presented here for the first time) affiliated into…

Clara Mafra. Na Posse da Palavra
Há cerca de cinco anos atrás, o sociólogo Tiago Santos, ao tentar uma análise do discurso académico feito em Portugal em torno dos novos movimentos religiosos e, em particular, da Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus, deparou-se com um obstáculo de vulto, nomeadamente a ausência do seu proposto objecto de estudo sob a forma de obra publicada.Na verdade, e até à edição em 1999 de Deus, o Demónio e o Homem: O Fenómeno Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus…
