  • Reasons for Turnover of Kansas Public Health Officials during the Covid-19 Pandemic

    Open AccessCristi Cain, David Hunt et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

In Kansas, 51 local health department (LHD) administrators and/or local health officers left their positions due to the pandemic between 15 March 2020 and 31 August 2021. The purpose of this study was to identify factors that led to turnover of Kansas local public health officials during the COVID-19 pandemic. Those eligible to participate in this study in…

  • Evaluating life history trade‐offs through the presence of linear enamel hypoplasia at Pueblo Bonito and Hawikku

    Open AccessAllison C Ham, D H Temple et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology2021

    OBJECTIVES: Due to the indelible nature of enamel, bioarchaeologists use linear enamel hypoplasia (LEH) to detect early investments in surviving stress and have identified an association between LEH presence and constraints in growth and maintenance as well as an increased susceptibility to future stress events. This study evaluates heterogenous frailty and susceptibility to death in relation to episodes of early life stress, as reflected by LEH …

    OBJECTIVES: This study compares lower limb diaphyseal robusticity between Native Alaskan hunter-gatherers to reconstruct patterns of mobility and engagement with terrain. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ancestral remains included in this study date between 600 and 1800 C.E. and were divided into three regions: Coastal Bay, Far North Coastal, and Inland/Riverine. Cross-sectional properties were determined at femoral and tibial midshafts and standardized by…

  • The Taunton Stop Line and Its Camouflage

    Open AccessDavid R Hunt, David Hunt et al.ARTICLEThe Antiquaries Journal2020Referências: 2

    The Taunton Stop Line was a defensive work built in the second half of 1940 to contain a possible German invasion of the south-west peninsula of Britain. The line ran across the ‘waist of the South West’ from the mouth of the river Parrett (in Somerset) to the mouth of the River Axe at Seaton (in Devon). This was a massive feat of construction involving both military and civilian personnel working under the threat of an imminent German invasion. …

  • Did Neandertals have large brains? Factors affecting endocranial volume comparisons

    Open AccessCaroline Vansickle, Z Cofran et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Physical…2020Citada por: 5Referências: 32

    Our results demonstrate that Neandertals do not have uniquely large brains when compared with recent humans. Their brain size falls in the large end of the recent human range of variation, but does not exceed it. These results have implications for future research on Neandertal encephalization

  • Tuong Vu. Vietnam’s Communist Revolution

    Open AccessDavid HuntARTICLEThe American Historical Review2018

    In Vietnam’s Communist Revolution, Tuong Vu sets out to demonstrate that communist internationalism shaped the outlook of leadership within the Vietnamese Communist Party. He argues that in the 1930s, party members shared “a deep love of the Soviet Union as a laboratory of revolution.” They quarreled about united-front versus class-against-class strategies, but were united in “their loyalty to the Comintern” (32). The author goes on to fault hist…

  • Five Cases of Dental Anomalies Attributable to Congenital Syphilis from Early 20th Century American Anatomical Collections

    Open AccessStella Ioannou, David R Hunt et al.ARTICLEDental Anthropology Journal2018Citada por: 1Referências: 1

    Specific dental abnormalities are considered pathognomonic of congenital syphilis (CS); however, European physicians recognized their variation during the late 19th to mid 20th centuries. Observations of syphi-lis-related dental abnormalities in American individuals from similar time periods are made to determine types of variation among the American population.From a survey of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History anat…

  • Propaganda and the Public

    David R Hunt, David HuntARTICLEJournal of Social Issues in…2016

    In the Mekong Delta province of Mỹ Tho, village populations paid attention to print and electronic media controlled by the Government of Vietnam in Saigon and by the National Liberation Front during the early 1960s. They also relied for news on rumours and on information circulating on the grapevine. At first, NLF militants benefited from their dialogue with an ascendant rural public. But after 1965 mounting violence complicated Front efforts to …

  • Modern and Strange Things”

    David HuntARTICLEJournal of Vietnamese Studies2014Citada por: 1

    Alterations in the spending habits of country people constitute one thread in the history of Vietnamese society in the 1960s. Some welcomed and others objected to mass-produced consumer goods and especially to new forms of dress. The ensuing controversy played out amidst the violent crosscurrents of the Vietnam War and led to dissension within the ranks of the National Liberation Front and in the Sài Gòn milieu. The last word belongs to villagers…

  • Edward Miller. Misalliance

    David HuntARTICLEThe American Historical Review2014

    Edward Miller has written an important and fascinating book on the career of Ngo Dinh Diem and his troubled and ultimately disastrous relations with the United States. In hopes of moving beyond the simplistic views found in earlier work, Miller shows how Diem understood Catholicism and Confucianism and attempted to adapt them to current realities. He and his brother Nhu forged alliances “across sectarian, political, and regional lines” (p. 33) th…

  • Temporal trends in femoral diaphyseal torsional asymmetry among the Arikara associated with postural behavior

    Open AccessDaniel J Wescott, Deborah L Cunningham et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Physical…2014Referências: 39

    Average femoral torsion has been reported to differ among populations, and several studies have observed a relatively high prevalence of femoral anteversion asymmetry in Native Americans, especially females. This study investigates sexual dimorphism and temporal trends in femoral torsional asymmetry among the Arikara from the seventeenth to the early nineteenth century. To establish if there are population differences, femoral torsion was first m…

  • Inequalities in cardiovascular disease mortality

    Alison Beauchamp, Alexis Peeters et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2010Citada por: 4Referências: 33

    BACKGROUND: While the relationship between socio-economic disadvantage and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is well established, the role that traditional cardiovascular risk factors play in this association remains unclear. The authors examined the association between education attainment and CVD mortality and the extent to which behavioural, social and physiological factors explained this relationship. METHODS: Adults (n=38,355) aged 40-69 years li…

  • Dirty Wars

    Open AccessDavid R Hunt, David HuntARTICLELatin American Politics and Society2010Citada por: 6

    Counterinsurgency doctrine emerged in the early 1960s as the Kennedy administration sought a politically progressive alternative to 'pacification' campaigns waged by the French against the Vietnamese revolution. But its architects could not come up with a substitute for the conventional military reliance on massive firepower, which brought devastation to the Vietnamese people and failed to crush the 'Viet Cong.' The Americans were again unsuccess…

  • The Face of the Wolf is Blessed, or is It? Diverging Perceptions of the Wolf

    David R Hunt, David HuntARTICLEFolklore2008Citada por: 4

    Evidence shows divergent perceptions of the wolf in different parts of the world. The populations of Asia, the Near East and the indigenous peoples of North America see the wolf positively, as an ideal hunter, warrior and survivor in the wilderness, although shepherds and animal-herders in these regions seem to have an ambivalent attitude towards the animal. Among many of the peoples mentioned above, there appears to be a desire to emulate the wo…

  • Valentinian And The Bishops

    David C Hunt, David HuntCHAPTERAmmianus after Julian2007

    This chapter provides a context for understanding Ammianus Marcellinus' noted commendation of Valentinian's religious toleration. Valentinian's acclaimed religious tolerance was, then, perhaps no more than might be expected from a (new) imperial regime seeking to navigate successfully through the entrenched interests of its subjects. The chapter surveys the evidence for Valentinian's religious policy in general, and in relation to Christianity. I…

  • Colour Symbolism in the Folk Literature of the Caucasus

    David R Hunt, David HuntARTICLEFolklore2006Citada por: 2Referências: 1

    Colour associations are analysed indirectly by a study of oral traditions and legends, using methods developed in structural anthropology. Colours are considered not in isolation, but mainly in contrasting pairs or in sequences. It has been found that a specific colour could have different associations in different conditions, and that generally the associations are more abstract than concrete
