TRACING AINU AND PRE-AINU CULTURAL CONTINUITY THROUGH CLADISTIC ANALYSIS OF FAUNAL ASSEMBLAGES ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to The Graduate Faculty Central Washington University ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Resource Management ____________________________________ by Christopher James Lowry November 2017 i CENTRAL WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY Graduate Studies We hereby approve the thesis of Christopher James Lowry Candidate for the degree of Master of Science APPROVED FOR THE GRADUATE FACULTY ______________ __________________________________________ Dr. Steve Hackenberger, Committee Chair ______________ __________________________________________ Dr. Karisa Terry ______________ __________________________________________ Dr. Kathleen Barlow ______________ __________________________________________ Dean of Graduate Studies ii ABSTRACT TRACING AINU AND PRE-AINU CULTURAL CONTINUITY THROUGH CLADISTIC ANALYSIS OF FAUNAL ASSEMBLAGES by Christopher James Lowry November 2017 Cladistics (Hennig 1950, 1965, 1966), a method for establishing evolutionary relationships, is used to compare faunal assemblages from Jōmon (14,000-500 BC; 14,000–2700 cal. BP), Epi-Jōmon (3rd – 7th century; 2700-1500 cal. BP), Satsumon (7th century - 13th century AD; ca. 1500-800 cal. BP), and Ainu (13th century AD – present) period components (Habu et al. 2011; Matsumura 2006; Ōnishi 2014; Weber et al. 2013) from sites in Central Hokkaido, Japan using Generalized Frequency Coding methods (Smith & Gutberlet 2001). Associations of site components follow geographic rather than temporal trends, showing similarities in animal use across these time periods but differentiated between coastal lowland, inland lowland, and inland upland areas. Statistical analyses confirm the trends found in cladistic analysis. These findings suggest some level of cultural continuity across these time periods and important local environmental forces at work in shaping animal use. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my committee members Dr. Kathleen Barlow, Dr. Steve Hackenberger, and Dr. Karisa Terry for their support and involvement, without which this thesis could not have been completed. Dr. Terry gave crucial assistance in the writing process, and Drs. Barlow and Hackenberger had important insights into shaping the overall research path and in addressing important concerns. I would also like to thank Dr. Yuichi Nakazawa of Hokkaido University for his hosting my research, providing facilities to scan documents, helping me locate and obtain the reports from which the data used in this study originated, and helping steer the direction of this thesis. The Braden- Dodd Memorial Graduate Fellowship provided funds for data-gathering and the Central Washington University Graduate Assistantship funded a significan part of costs in pursuing a Master’s degree. I would like to thank Dr. John Bowen for his assistance with the statistical analysis. Finally, I would like to thank my wife, Sadie, and my friends and family who provided support and encouragement throughout this process. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page I INTRODUCTION

They are a class of biocide. Herbal insecticidal method is a rapidly expanding field of agriculture, where natural agents, primarily parasitism and predators are used to control an insect that has been causing economic harm to human interests. These methods can be alternatives or supplements to conventional pest control methods such as synthetic pesticides.

  • GIANT ULLEUNG CELERY Stephen Barstow1, Malvik, March 2020
    GIANT ULLEUNG CELERY 1 Stephen Barstow , Malvik, March 2020 Scientific name: Dystaenia takesimana Carrot family (Apiaceae) English: Seombadi, Sobadi, Dwaejipul, giant Ulleung celery, Korean pig-plant, wild celery, giant Korean celery Korean: 섬바디, 드와지풀 Norwegian: Ulleung kjempeselleri Swedish: Ullungloka, Vulkanloka The genus Dystaenia belongs to the carrot family or umbellifers (Apiaceae) and consists of two perennial species, one is a Japanese endemic (Dystaenia ibukiensis), and the other is endemic to a small island, Ulleung-do in Korea (Dystaenia takesimana). Genetic analysis (Pfosser et al., 2005) suggests that the larger D. takesimana evolved from D. ibukiensis rather than vice versa. The specific epithet takesimana is according to one reference to Takeshima Islet, which is disputed with the Japanese. Campanula takesimana is apparently found there. However, Takeshima island is also an alternative name for Ulleung-do, so this may be a misunderstanding. That Ulleung-do is Takeshima is confirmed on the following web site from the Oki Islands off Japan http://www.oki-geopark.jp/en/flowers-calendar/summer where it is stated that Dystaenia takesimana is also found there and is critically endangered: “This plant was designated as Cultural Property of Ama Town in 2012. It has only been discovered on the two isolated islands of Ama Town of the Oki Islands (Nakanoshima Island) and Ulleung-do Island of South Korea. It can be seen on the Akiya Coast in Nakanoshima Island. It is called Takeshima- shishiudo, as Ulleung-do was referred to as Takeshima” (see the map in Figure 1 for places mentioned here). Ulleung-do is a rocky steep-sided volcanic island some 120 km east of the coast of South Korea, the highest peak reaching 984m.

The combination of glacial history, climate and relief has allowed the development of the richest and most unusual temperate forests in the world. Compared to other temperate ecosystems, the level of endemic plants and invertebrates present in the region is extraordinarily high which has resulted in unusual assemblages of plants and animals. For example, subtropical species such as tiger and Himalayan bear share the same habitat with species typical of northern taiga such as brown bear and reindeer. The site is also important for the survival of endangered species such as the scaly-sided (Chinese) merganser, Blakiston's fish-owl and the Amur tiger. This serial nomination consists of two protected areas in the Sikhote- Alin mountain range in the extreme southeast of the Russian Federation: NAME LOCATION AREA Sikhote-Alin Nature Preserve Terney District 401,428 ha Goralij Zoological Preserve Coastal zone on the Sea of Japan, N of Terney 4,749 ha The Committee encouraged the State Party to improve management of the Bikin River protected areas (Bikin Territory of Traditional Nature Use and Verkhnebikinski zakaznik) before nominating it as an extension.

  • De La Música, Lo Bello Y Las Sombras. La Compleja Relación De Joy Division Con La Estética De Lo Oscuro
    149 De la música, lo bello y las sombras. La compleja relación de Joy Division con la estética de lo oscuro Dr. Pompeyo Pérez Díaz Universidad de La Laguna Resumen El papel de Joy Division como uno de los grupos impulsores del rock gótico es difícilmente discutible. Sin embargo, los rasgos sono- ros y estéticos de su propuesta presentan notables diferencias con otras bandas referenciales de dicha corriente, como Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Cure o Bauhaus. Los seguidores de estas, sin embar- go, siempre se mostraron receptivos hacia sus letras, su música y sus austeros conciertos. Hay algo extremo y/o radical en su plantea- miento que es percibido como oscuro por naturaleza. Este vínculo entre Joy Division y una estética gótica más canónica se vio refor- zado por un suceso inesperado, la muerte de Ian Curtis. Su suicidio consolidó el proceso de conversión de Joy Division en una banda de culto al tiempo que otorgó una “credibilidad” excepcional a la carga poética de las letras y al sonido descarnado de su música. I. Shadow at the side of the road Always reminds me of you� Ian Curtis.
