Hatzilazaridou MARMIN STONE 2008 44 ISSN: 1791-4523 INTRODUCTORY ADDRESS FROM THE GENERAL DIRECTOR OF THE INSTITUTE OF GEOLOGY AND MINERAL EXPLORATION ellenic Geosphaera is a quarterly Magazine of the Institute of Geology and Min- eral Exploration (I.G.M.E.), published with the aim to inform the public of the H activities and important work the Institute has and continues to perform in the geoscientific field. The natural environment is directly connected to the geological structure of our country, which the I.G.M.E. systematically studies since 1950. The Special Issue of the Magazine that you have in your hands is dedicated to Indus- trial Minerals and Rocks, and presents a small part of the research performed at the National and European level in this field. It is published to commemorate the occasion of the I.G.M.E’s participation as local co-organiser of the 19th International Industrial Minerals Congress and Exhibition (IMC). The Institute shows a remarkable activity in the field of Industrial Minerals and Rocks. Further to identifying and studying occurrences over the country by applying the inno- vations offered by modern technology, it is currently active in the following activities: • Compilation of G.I.S. data bases and maps that will include past and current informa- tion on deposits of industrial minerals and rocks; • Geological mapping at various scales (1:500 – 1:50,000) of selected areas of inter- est; • Development of know-how for the exploitation of industrial minerals, residues from marble exploitation, aggregates and other raw materials for the production of mar- ketable products; • Evaluation of raw materials for cement manufacture; • Development of tools for the after-closure beneficial use of abandoned quarries; • Evaluation of new deposits (e.g., zeolites, pozzolanas), and • Compilation of inventories of wastes from quarries/mines, as well as other wastes, such as fly ash. It is worth mentioning at this point that the organisation of the 19th IMC in Hellas coin- cides with the actions that have been undertaken for the “International Year of Planet Earth” (www.yearofplanetearth.org). The “International Year of Planet Earth 2007-2009” aims “to capture the people’s imagination with the exciting knowledge we possess about our planet and we see that knowledge used to make the Earth a safer, healthier and wealthier place for our chil- dren and grandchildren”.

Papadopoulos, Chair This research project examines the appearance and proliferation of some of the earliest cremation burials in Europe in the context of the prehistoric north Aegean. Using archaeological and osteological evidence from the region between the Pindos mountains and Evros river in northern Greece, this study examines the formation of death rituals, the role of landscape in the emergence of cemeteries, and expressions of social identities against the backdrop of diachronic change and synchronic variation. I draw on a rich and diverse record of mortuary practices to examine the co-existence of cremation and inhumation rites from the beginnings of farming in the Neolithic period

  • Aiani—Historical and Geographical Context
    CHAPTER 5 AIANI—HISTORICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL CONTEXT G. Karamitrou-Mentessidi Aiani—Elimiotis—Upper Macedonia According to the foundation myth preserved by Stephanos of Byzantium, “Aiani, a Macedonian city, was built by Aianos, a son of Elymos the Tyr- rhenian king, who migrated to Macedonia, ‘Aianaios’ was the ethnikon.” A reference to the city of Aiani was found by the French academic L. Heuzey in 1861 in two inscriptions in churches in the village of Kalliani (whose name may derive from “kali Aiani,” meaning “fair Aiani,”: in 1926 it was renamed Aiani). They led to various theories about the site of the settle- ment and its urban organization. The problem was not solved until offfijicial excavations began. Even if an urban settlement by the name of Elimeia did also exist, Aiani became the capital of Elimiotis at a very early date. The district of Elimeia or Elimiotis, bordering Orestis and Eordaea to the north, occupied the southern part of Upper Macedonia on both sides of the middle reach of the River Haliacmon, although its exact territorial extent is difffijicult to determine. During the Hellenistic era it appears to have included the region of Tymphaea to the west and, perhaps at an earlier date, the northern part of the Perrhaebian Tripolitis (Pythium, Azorus, and Doliche). Territorial disputes between Elimeia and its neigh- bours occurred, as can be seen in a Latin inscription found at Doliche, in which the emperor Trajan (101 ad) defijined the boundary between the Elimiotae and the inhabitants of Doliche by reviving an earlier ruling by King Amyntas III (393–369 bc) on the same issue.
