TORRES -MAR T ÍNEZ (KECHU )*, AN T XO K A MAR T ÍNEZ VELASCO ** y CRIS T INA PÉREZ FARRACES *** RESU M EN - ABS T RAC T El oppidum de Monte Bernorio es conocido como una de las ciudades fortificadas de la Edad del Hierro más importantes del cantábrico. Domina una importante encrucijada de pasos a través de la Cordillera Cantábrica que per- mite la comunicación entre la submeseta norte y la zona central de la franja cantábrica. La conquista de este oppidum resultó esencial, como demuestran las recientes campañas de excavación arqueológicas, durante las campañas mili- tares que el emperador Octavio Augusto desencadenó contra Cántabros y Astures. Se presentan en este trabajo nuevas informaciones relacionadas con la conquista del núcleo por parte de las legiones romanas y de los restos de armamento localizados en las excavaciones, en especial de los proyectiles de artillería empleados en el ataque. La presencia de proyectiles de artillería de pequeño calibre indicaría el empleo de este tipo de máquinas en época altoimperial. The oppidum of Mount Bernorio is known as one of the most prominent fortified sites in the Iron Age in the Cantabrian coast.

The Project ARCHEST was designed to improve the presentation of the site and to, consequently, attract new visitors. The main objectives were support- ing the archaeology-related creative sectors to operate transnationally and to increase the knowledge of common Roman history through the most important archaeological sites. Additionally, there was an objective to increase the audience with an integrated approach and modern technology, transforming a non-audience into a new audience and changing the opinion that archaeology is something boring or too elitist. The results of the project have a huge appeal to ordinary audiences and support a better understanding and acceptance of Roman civilization through clear images which, at the same time, do not contradict the scientific concept but, rather, aim to support it. keyWords: 3d reConstruCtIon, VIRTUAL reaLIty, VIMInaCIuM, arCHest.

The purpose of the piece The Strategikon as a source — Slavs and Avars in the eyes of Pseudo- Maurice, current state of research and future research perspectives is to demonstrate what the author of Strategikon knew about the Slavs and Avars and review the state of research on the chapter of the treatise that deals with these two barbarian ethnicities. As a side note to the de- scription of contemporary studies of Strategikon, the piece also lists promising areas of research, which have not yet received proper attention from scholars.

INTRODUCTION The Strategikon is a Roman military treatise, written at the end of the 6th or the beginning of the 7th century. It is one of the seminal sources not only on East Roman military history but also on the Slavs, the Avars and other peoples neighboring the Empire at the onset of the Middle Ages.

  • Commagenorum
    CASTELUL DE LA CAPUT STENARUM ŞI COHORS I FLAVIA COMMAGENORUM Cristian SCHUSTER* Fortificaţia de la Boiţa/Caput Stenarum Înainte de a părăsi Transilvania, Oltul face un unghi de aproape 90 de grade, pornind apoi spre sud, prin Carpaţii Meridionali, devenind ulterior „graniţa” dintre Oltenia şi Muntenia. Chiar în dreptul respectivului cot, pe malul drept al râului, investigaţiile arheologice au permis descoperirea resturilor unei fortificaţii romane. Acestea, aflate în punctul cunoscut sub denumirea În Rude (fig. 1), se găsesc astăzi pe teritoriul satului Boiţa (oraşul Tălmaciu, judeţul Sibiu)1. Aşa cum se ştie, cei mai mulţi dintre specialişti consideră că în acest sat trebuie localizat ceea ce Tabula Peutingeriana indică a fi Caput Stenarum2. Prezenţa urmelor romane a fost semnalată încă de la sfârşitul veacului al XIX-lea - începutul celui următor3. Primele cercetări arheologice s-au derulat în 19574, fiind continuate în 19585, 19736, 19797 şi, în cadrul practicii arheologice a studenţilor de la Facultatea de Filologie-Istorie din Sibiu, în vara anului 19818. Fortificaţiei, prin dimensiunile sale reduse – „de 46 x 47 m, fiind, deci, aproape pătrată”9, i se potriveşte mai degrabă termenul de castellum decât cel de castrum. Cu privire la momentul ridicării fortificaţiei din piatră, dar şi a „termelor cu palestrele, tabulariului vămii şi construcţiile cu caracter gospodăresc” s-a emis ipoteza că ele au fost realizate „după anii 167-169 e.n., când s-a operat reorganizarea administrativă şi militară de către Marcus Aurelius”10.

Oleson, Department of Greek and Roman Studies Supervisor Dr. Gregory D. Rowe, Department of Greek and Roman Studies Departmental Member During the last stages of the Marcommani Wars in the late second century A.D., Roman literary sources recorded that the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius was planning to annex the Germanic territory of the Marcomannic and Quadic tribes. This work will propose that Marcus Aurelius was going to create a province called Marcomannia. The thesis will be supported by archaeological data originating from excavations in the Roman installation at Mušov, Moravia, Czech Republic. The investigation will examine the history of the non-Roman region beyond the northern Danubian frontier, the character of Roman occupation and creation of other Roman provinces on the Danube, and consult primary sources and modern research on the topic of Roman expansion and empire building during the principate. iv Table of Contents Supervisory Committee .....................................................................................................

  • Sexual Selection Can Reduce Mutational Load in Drosophila Subobscura
    UDC 575 DOI: 10.2298/GENSR1302537V Original scientific paper SEXUAL SELECTION CAN REDUCE MUTATIONAL LOAD IN DROSOPHILA SUBOBSCURA Marija SAVI Ć VESELINOVI Ć1, Sofija PAVKOVI Ć-LU ČIĆ1, Zorana KURBALIJA NOVI ČIĆ2, Mihailo JELI Ć1, Marko AN ĐELKOVI Ć1,2,3 1 Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia 2 Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković”, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia 3 Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Belgrade, Serbia Veselinovi ć Savi ć M., S. Pavkovi ć Lu čić, Z. Kurbalija Novi čić, M. Jeli ć and M. An đelkovi ć (2013): Sexual selection can reduce mutational load in Drosophila subobscura. Genetika, Vol 45, No. 2, 537-552. According to theoretical predictions sexual selection can reduce mutational load through male mating success. Males of good genetic quality should be more successful in matings, compared to the males of low genetic quality, thus in this way females can prevent deleterious alleles to be transmitted to the next generation. We tested this hypothesis through set up of two experimental groups from same genetic pool, where in one group genetic quality was manipulated by ionizing radiation. Within each group opportunity for choosing mates was imposed: males and females had no choice or had multiple choice. Mutational load was measured through the variability of different fitness components: fecundity and egg-to-adult viability. Our results indicate that sexual selection can reduce mutational load, only for fecundity. Group with the presence of female choice exhibited higher fecundity than group in which sexual selection was experimentally eliminated, but only in “irradiated” group. There was no overall difference in egg-to-adult viability between different sexual selection regimes in any of the group.

    UDC 904:725.96 »653« (497.115) 133 VUJADIN IVANI[EVI], PERICA [PEHAR Institute of Archaeology, Belgrade EARLY BYZANTINE FINDS FROM ^E^AN AND GORNJI STREOC (KOSOVO) Abstract. – In this article, we presented the archaeological finds from ^e~an and Gornji Streoc – hill-forts on Mount ^i~evica in the immediate vicinity of Vu~itrn (Kosovo). We studied the archaeological material from the Roman, Late Roman and, in particular from the Early Byzantine period. A large number of archaeological objects and especially iron tools found on the ^e~an and Gornji Streoc fortresses indicate a well-developed level of production in the crafts and iron manufacturer. We emphasize the importance of these fortresses in Late Roman times and we highlight the fortification of the interior regions of Illyricum. This suggests that Dardania had a considerable population in the Late Roman period as is confirmed by the many fortresses constructed throughout the entire region, often on almost inaccessible terrain.
