000549617.Pdf Bombardière, Bombardièro, il dim Bombardìno e l’accr Bombardòne, il dim Bombètta “petardo”. Bombàre “tuonare” (omn di Bombare “bere” e Bombare “arrotondare”) con un Bòmbito “rimbombo”, Bombaròlo. A Ferdinando II di Borbone (1810/1859) fu assegnato l’epiteto di re Bomba. Il percorso conta le locuzioni Bomba molotov o Bottiglia molotov coniata da combattenti finlandesi durante la seconda guerra mondiale, Tornare a bomba. Il percorso conta il prefissato Rimbombàre col pref RI iterativo adattato cui Ribombànte e il devb Ribòmbo. Ancora, l’esot Bòmber dall’ingl BOMBER bombardiere, fig il giubbotto tipo militare attraverso l’ingl BOMBER JACKET o “cannoniere calcistico”. Bomber, semant è in snm con Bombarolo, cui il tragicamente famoso l’imprendibile Unabomber veneto che da oltre dieci anni (oggi 2008) terrorizza vigliaccamente la gente; il prefissato Unabomber sta giornalisticamente per “bombarolo che colpisce una volta tanto” sul calco di “Una (volta) tantum” dalla corrispondente locuzione lat, attestatasi in ital quale “tassa straordinaria”. Bombìsta e Bombòne stanno anche per “fanfarone” da Bomba fig “notizia- bomba”. Eppoi i fig Bombàre “arrotondare come una bomba” (omn di Bombare “bere”) con Bombàggio, Bombàto, Bombatùra e il dim Bombètta questa volta “cappello” stanno per “a forma di bomba” cui il glb franc Bombè (corretto Bombé) con l’omologismo Bomberìna, ancora Bòmbola con Bombolètta, i fig Bòmbolo con Bombolòne e Bombolòtto, questo al plur Bombolòtti in gastronomia (primo piatto); il volg fig Bombare nel senso di “menare”. In connessione, fig o meno, l’ital conta Bòmbo (omnn di Bombo bevanda”) sia “rumore cupo-ronzio” sia “insetto” cui Bombìre e Bombìto, un Bòmbero “sciocco” (omn di Bombero “vomere”), Bombòne “fanfarone” omn di Bombone “beone”, ed ancora Bòmbice “sorta di farfalla” dal lat BOMBYX BOMBICIS insetto ronzante cui la locuzione Bombice del gelso “baco da seta” e Bombìcidi (Famiglia di Lepidotteri) con Bombicìllidi (Famiglia di uccelli), Bombìlio dal gr BOMBYLIOS insetto ronzante svoltosi in “vasetto d’unguento”. Da Bombice svoltosi in Bòmbico cui l’ipocoristico Bico e, in pron sett, Bigo, l’ital conta un Bìghero o Bìgaro già dal XSVIII sec coin valore di “trina, merletto” cui Bigherìno e Bigherinàia; famosa la tela Le bigherinaie (1881) del macchiaiolo Telemaco Signorini (1835/1901). L’omn Bombòne e Bombonièra sono i termini alieni nel percorso transitati dal franc BONBONNIERE da BONBON questo da voce onomatopeica infantile per dolciume e che vale buono buono (notare la norma ital di mutare la n in m ove preceda le consonanti b e p). Bombànza, poi, è dal prvz BOBANSA già franc BOBANCE con epentesi eufonica della lettera m. Certamente fuori percorso è il termine mer Bombìno “sorta di vitigno” che sta per “buon vino” (metaplasmo dialettale), così anche per Bombicìno “sorta di carta”, detto erroneamente anche Bambagìna o Bambagìno (poiché si credeva fatta di bambagia), dal toponimo ar Bambice oggi el-Mambi dove veniva prodotta. \ Diminutivo latino - Diminutivi italiani COLO UNCOLO ATTOLO ICIATTOLO ICINO 1050 Nella nostra lingua ritroviamo molteplici termini ricopiati ed adattati dal dim lat CULUS, quali Follìcolo, dal lat FOLLICULUS dim di FOLLIS sacco; Currìculum (CURRUS), Forùncolo (FURO)… e dal dim UNCOLO cui Omùncolo (HOMO), Ranùncolo, dal lat RANUNCULUS, dim di RANO (mas di RANA), cui Ranòcchio… e così via. UNCOLO è un suff alterativo in senso diminutivo anche spregiativo. Esistono termini che a causa dell’identica finale in COLO – dal lat COLA - potrebbero essere scambiati per diminutivi, quali Terrìcolo, dal lat TERRICOLA, composto di Terra e del tema verbale di COLERE abitare (in contesto agricolo), come Agrìcolo da AGRICOLA. Miràcolo, poi, è il nome di strumento dal verbo lat volg MIRARI guardare, cui il fig Miracolàio o Miracolòne, Miracolàre, Miracolànte, Miracolàto, Miracoleggiàre, Miracolìsmo, Miracolìsta, Miracolìstico, Miracolòso con Miracolosità e Miracolosamènte. Per la chiesa cattolica il Miracolo (lemma adottato già alla fine del XIII sec) è evento unico per intervento divino e inspiegabile dalla scienza; per accezione la guarigione improvvisa da un male incurabile. È considerato un suo snm il termine Prodigio (già adottato nel XIV sec) che in verità è evento reiterabile, in virtù della volontà divina, così come lo scioglimento del sangue di S. Gennaro nell’ampolla. Dal lat MIRARI guardare, l’ital conta Miràre con Mìra, Mirìno e Miratòre, eppoi Miràbile con Mirabilmènte, Mirabìlia (raccolta medv di racconti immaginari), il minerale Mirabilìte (suff ITE per minerali) dalla locuzione lat SAL MIRABILIS sale da ammirare (per la sua estetica), Miràggio (rientrato dal franc MIRAGE), Miràglio questo già snm di Specchio, l’aggettivo Miràndo al fem in toponomastica e in onomastica o cognomastica Miranda “ammirevole” con Mirella, il composto Mirasòle “guarda il sole” snm di Girasòle, Miràto, Mìro. L’onomastico Mirko, dim dello slavo MIROSLAW, invece, non ha nulla di questo percorso poiché sta per glorioso nella pace in coppia col polacco Stanislao da STANISLAW gloria dello stato. Mirabilia, inv dal lat MIRABILIA di MIRUS meraviglioso, s’è svolto nell’ital Meravìglia o Maravìglia (toscano) con Meravigliàre o Maravigliàre, Meravigliàto o Maravigliàto, Meravigliòso o Maravigliòso con gli avverbi rispettivi Meravigliosamènte e Maravigliosamènte; l’ingl conta WONDER meraviglioso cui il marchio registrato glb ingl Wonderbra composto con BRA reggiseno. Il percorso conta il prefissato Ammiràre da ADMIRARE (AD allativo) con Ammiràbile, Ammiràndo dal gerundivo ADMIRANDUS Ammiratìvo, Ammiràto, Ammiratòre, Ammiraziòne ed Ammirèvole, eppoi il reiterativo Rimiràre da RIMIRARE (RI reiterativo) e il composto Mirìfico con Fico “fico meraviglioso”. Il gr conta lo specifico AGAUOS meraviglioso cui Agave-àgave “pianta delle Amarillidàcee; dall’azteco METI agave, poi, l’ital conta l’omologismo Metella “sorta d’erba velenosa delle Solanacee”. Il termine Ammiràglio, cui Ammiragliàta, Ammiragliàto e Contrammiràglio, non appartiene al prefissato lat ADMIRARE, bensì è il derivato dall’ar AMIR AL principe-comandante di… attraverso il franc AMIRAIL, svoltosi 1051 dallo sp in Almirànte e dall’ar in Emìro. Il gr conta AGAUOS meraviglioso cui Agave-agave “pianta erbacea” o una fibra tessile che si ricava dalle foglie di Sisal “pianta tropicale”, questo esot dal toponimo del porto messicano Sisal, cui l’omologismo Sisalàna; nessuna connessione con Sìsaro o Sìsero “erba delle ombrellifere” dal gr SISARON. Il dim lat s’è inc col suff dim ital ATTOLO nei termini quali Giocattolo (IOCUS), Barattolo, Scoiàttolo 1 questo dal gr SKIUROS composto con SKIA ombra e URA coda pertanto coda che fa ombra, cui Sciùridi (la Famiglia). Un suff dim che ritroviamo riadattato in Naneròttolo (dal lat NANUS già gr NANOS), Pianeròttolo (da Piano), questi comunque transitati da un primitivo dim Naneròtto, Pianeròtto. L’ital conta ancora un raro suff dim spregiativo ICIATTOLO in termini quali Mostriciàttolo da Mostro, Omiciàttolo da Uomo (lat HOMO), Vermiciàttolo da Verme; il termine Fiumiciàttolo, quindi, è una forzatura linguistica qualora si voglia indicare esclusivamente un “piccolo corso d’acqua”, che al contrario potrebbe essere suggestivo e poetico. Il suff dim vezzeggiativo è invece ICINO per termini quali Camicìno da Camicia, Morticìno da Morto, Ossicìno da Osso, Posticìno da Posto, Volpicìno da Volpe, e vrs il toponimo romano Fiumicino da Fiume. 1 Una sorta di scottaiolo è indicato con l’omologismo Scilù di genesi tigrina (Etiopia) SILLU. \ Furto Furia Dal verbo lat FURARI rubare, denm da FUR ladro, sono derivati Forfàre o Furfàre con Furfànte, questo passando innanzitutto dal lat FURCUFER furfante, eppoi dal prefissato franc ant FORSFAIRE agire, fare fuori (della legge), questo con Furfantàggine, Furfantàglia, Furfantàre, Furfanteggiàre, Furfanterìa, Furfantèsco, Furfantìna, Furfantìno, cui ancora gli esot Forfè da FORFAIT che vale fatto fuori (della legge) con Forfetàrio o Forfettàrio, Forfetizzàre e Forfetizzaziòne, eppoi un Forfeit attraverso l’ingl FORFEIT svoltosi in penalità, eppoi, sempre da FUR cui il volg FURIUS, Fùio modernizzato Fùro “ladro”, Furàre dal lat FURARI commettere un ladrocinio cui Furàce e Furacuòri (già nel 1578) snm di Rubacuori già dal 1527, il fig Furètto (puzzola europea, ladra di conigli) il cui verso è definito in Potpottàre imitativo del suono POT POT, ma che in lat scientifico è detto VIVERRA cui la Famiglia Vivèrridi da VIVERRIDAE. Il Furetto dai piedi neri è una varietà che nel 2012 è considerata in estinzione. Il percorso prosegue con l’aggettivo Furtìvo dal lat FURTIVUS col sostantivo Refurtìva ellittico della locuzione lat RES FURTIVA roba proveniente da un furto, pertanto il RE di Refurtiva non è come si può pensare il pref RE bensì indica il lemma latino RES cosa. Fùrto è dal Pp sostantivato lat FURTUM rubato, infine Fùrbo questo attestatosi fig passando dal franc FOURBE ladro connesso all’omologismo Forbìre, con Forbìta, Forbitèzza e Forbìto, dal franc FORBJAN pulire le mani, cui Furbàccio, Furbacchiòne, Furbàstro, Furbàta, Furberìa attraverso il franc FOURBERIE, Furbèsco, Furbìzia. Il lat conta lo specifico ASTUTUS per Furbo da ASTUS furbizia, cui Astutezza e Astùzia questo con un obsoileto Asto-àsto; termine alieno 1052 Asturiàno che vale “abitante delle Asturie”. Dal verb intensivo denm FURICARE da FUR ladro, cui un ant Furàre, si ha il risvolto in metatesi FRUCARE e l’ital conta in percorso Frucàndolo, Frucàre, Frucàta, Frucòne; con lenizione della c in g, si ha ancora Frugàre, Frugamènto, Frugàta,

They mostly comprise large samples of isolated teeth, but there are also several partial or complete adult crania from Shihuiba and a single juvenile cranium from Yuanmou. Here we describe a new, relatively complete and largely undistorted juvenile cranium from the terminal Miocene locality of Shuitangba, also in Yunnan. It is only the second ape juvenile cranium recovered from the Miocene of Eurasia and it is provisionally assigned to the species present at Shihuiba, Lufengpithecus lufengensis.

  • 8. Primate Evolution
    8. Primate Evolution Jonathan M. G. Perry, Ph.D., The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Stephanie L. Canington, B.A., The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Learning Objectives • Understand the major trends in primate evolution from the origin of primates to the origin of our own species • Learn about primate adaptations and how they characterize major primate groups • Discuss the kinds of evidence that anthropologists use to find out how extinct primates are related to each other and to living primates • Recognize how the changing geography and climate of Earth have influenced where and when primates have thrived or gone extinct The first fifty million years of primate evolution was a series of adaptive radiations leading to the diversification of the earliest lemurs, monkeys, and apes. The primate story begins in the canopy and understory of conifer-dominated forests, with our small, furtive ancestors subsisting at night, beneath the notice of day-active dinosaurs. From the archaic plesiadapiforms (archaic primates) to the earliest groups of true primates (euprimates), the origin of our own order is characterized by the struggle for new food sources and microhabitats in the arboreal setting. Climate change forced major extinctions as the northern continents became increasingly dry, cold, and seasonal and as tropical rainforests gave way to deciduous forests, woodlands, and eventually grasslands. Lemurs, lorises, and tarsiers—once diverse groups containing many species—became rare, except for lemurs in Madagascar where there were no anthropoid competitors and perhaps few predators. Meanwhile, anthropoids (monkeys and apes) emerged in the Old World, then dispersed across parts of the northern hemisphere, Africa, and ultimately South America.

An Ypresian (early Cuisian) age of w53 Ma (based on foraminifera) indicates that these Accepted 8 January 2009 primates were roughly contemporary with, or perhaps predated, the India-Asia collision. Here we present new euprimate fossils from Vastan Mine, including teeth, jaws, and referred postcrania of the Keywords: adapoids Marcgodinotius indicus and Asiadapis cambayensis. They are placed in the new subfamily Eocene Asiadapinae (family Notharctidae), which is most similar to primitive European Cercamoniinae such as India Donrussellia and Protoadapis. Asiadapines were small primates in the size range of extant smaller Notharctidae Adapoidea bushbabies. Despite their generally very plesiomorphic morphology, asiadapines also share a few derived Omomyidae dental traits with sivaladapids, suggesting a possible relationship to these endemic Asian adapoids. In Eosimiidae addition to the adapoids, a new species of the omomyid Vastanomys is described.

  • Primitive Adapidae from Namibia Sheds Light on the Early Primate Radiation in Africa
    Primitive Adapidae from Namibia sheds light on the early primate radiation in Africa Marc GODINOT 1, 2, Brigitte SENUT 1, Martin PICKFORD 1 1, Sorbonne Université (MNHN, CR2P, CNRS), Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, CP 38, 8 rue Buffon, F-75005, Paris, France ([email protected])([email protected]) 2, Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes, P. S. L. France ([email protected]) Abstract : The initial radiation of primates is best documented on Northern continents, in which two groups are abundant and well-known : the Omomyiformes, often considered to be primitive haplorhines, and the Adapiformes, usually considered to be strepsirrhines. The extinct Adapidae is one of the families of the Adapiformes, which was first documented in Europe and more recently found in Asia and North Africa. The late Eocene African adapids, from the Egyptian Fayum deposits, appear as a group of three genera constituting with the European genus Caenopithecus , a monophyletic subfamily, the Caenopithecinae, sister group to the otherwise exclusively European Adapinae. We report here the discovery, in the Middle Eocene locality of Black Crow in Namibia, of an undoubted primitive adapid, Namadapis interdictus nov. gen. nov. sp., which compares closely with the European genus Microadapis and the Chinese genus Adapoides . It also appears smaller, more primitive, closely related to the Fayum caenopithecines, being broadly ancestral to them but not directly in line with the three genera. The three primitive middle Eocene adapid genera present in Europe, Asia and Africa lead us to recognize an early differentiation between European Adapinae and African Caenopithecinae, the latter becoming more cristodont at smaller size than the former.
