John Brown and George Kellogg
John Brown and George Kellogg By Jean Luddy When most people think of John Brown, they remember the fiery abolitionist who attacked pro-slavery settlers in Kansas in 1855 and who led the raid on the Federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia in 1859 in order to spark a slave rebellion. Most people do not realize that Brown was no stranger to Vernon and Rockville, and that he worked for one of Rockville’s prominent 19th century citizens, George Kellogg. John Brown was born in Torrington, CT in 1800. His father was a staunch opponent of slavery and Brown spent his youth in a section of northern Ohio known as an abolitionist district. Before Brown became actively involved in the movement to eliminate slavery, he held a number of jobs, mainly associated with farming, land speculation and wool growing. (www.pbs.org) Brown’s path crossed with George Kellogg’s when Brown started to work for Kellogg and the New England Company as a wool sorter and buyer. John Brown George Kellogg, born on March 3, 1793 in Vernon, got his start in the woolen industry early in life when he joined Colonel Francis McLean in business in 1821. They established the Rock Manufacturing Company and built the Rock Mill, the first factory along the Hockanum River, in the area that would grow into the City of Rockville. Kellogg worked as the company’s agent from 1828 to 1837. At that time, he left the Rock Company to go into business with Allen Hammond. They founded the New England Company and built a factory along the Hockanum River. -
Macedonian Kings, Egyptian Pharaohs the Ptolemaic Family In
Department of World Cultures University of Helsinki Helsinki Macedonian Kings, Egyptian Pharaohs The Ptolemaic Family in the Encomiastic Poems of Callimachus Iiro Laukola ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki in auditorium XV, University Main Building, on the 23rd of September, 2016 at 12 o’clock. Helsinki 2016 © Iiro Laukola 2016 ISBN 978-951-51-2383-1 (paperback.) ISBN 978-951-51-2384-8 (PDF) Unigrafia Helsinki 2016 Abstract The interaction between Greek and Egyptian cultural concepts has been an intense yet controversial topic in studies about Ptolemaic Egypt. The present study partakes in this discussion with an analysis of the encomiastic poems of Callimachus of Cyrene (c. 305 – c. 240 BC). The success of the Ptolemaic Dynasty is crystallized in the juxtaposing of the different roles of a Greek ǴdzȅǻǽǷȏȄ and of an Egyptian Pharaoh, and this study gives a glimpse of this political and ideological endeavour through the poetry of Callimachus. The contribution of the present work is to situate Callimachus in the core of the Ptolemaic court. Callimachus was a proponent of the Ptolemaic rule. By reappraising the traditional Greek beliefs, he examined the bicultural rule of the Ptolemies in his encomiastic poems. This work critically examines six Callimachean hymns, namely to Zeus, to Apollo, to Artemis, to Delos, to Athena and to Demeter together with the Victory of Berenice, the Lock of Berenice and the Ektheosis of Arsinoe. Characterized by ambiguous imagery, the hymns inspect the ruptures in Greek thought during the Hellenistic age. -

Insights Into a Translucent Name Bead*
INSIGHTS INTO A TRANSLUCENT NAME BEAD* [PLANCHES XIII-XIV] BY PETER PAMMINGER Institut für Ägyptologie der Johannes-Gutenberg-Universität Saarstr. 21 (Campus) D-55099 MAINZ Recently, while visiting a private collection in Belgium, I became aware of a rock- crystal bead of quite distinctive qualities, which might once have belonged to the royal entourage of the 25th dynasty King Piye. The object was acquired not long ago on the art market, unfortunately without any proof of provenance. Its owner was kind enough to grant me permission to publish it. The bead itself (diameter 1.8 to 2.5 cm) has been drilled through (the hole 1.0 to 1.1 cm wide), embodying a sheet of gold in its core. One side of the surface being decorated with a raised cartouche bearing the inscription Mn-Ìpr-R{, the opposite side depicting a vulture1 who is carrying in each claw a symbol of {nÌ. Inbetween these two motives are situated two raised circular dots, each obviously representing a sun-disc (fig. + pl. XIII). * Abbreviations generally in accordance with Helck, W. und W.

The Historic Mills of North Andover
The Historic Mills of North Andover: Local History at a Glance The mills at North Andover altered the history of the town forever. Beginning with the Scholfield Mill in 1802, North Andover grew to become one of many leading textile equipment manufacturers in Massachusetts. By the nineteenth century, four sites stood along Cochichewick Brook to facilitate the growth of the North Parish’s (incorporated as North Andover in 1855) woolen textile industry. During this period, the Stevens, later renamed Osgood, and Sutton Mills produced woolen textiles, while the Da- vis and Furber Machine Shop produced the machinery deployed in the manufacturing of those textiles. In the 1860s, Davis and Furber undertook rapid expansion as a result of the immense growth of the woolen industry during the Civil War period. In the backdrop of the war, the American woolen industry remarkably doubled in size. Even into the twentieth century, the companies located at the Cochichewick Brook sites provided North Andover with a formidable industrial business as well as a principal em- ployer. Scholfield Mill (1802) .The Scholfield/Sutton Mills are believed to be the oldest continuous woolen man- ufactory in the country .The Scholfield’s/Sutton Mills was the first woolen mill in North Andover .The mill was built in 1802 on Cochichewick by James Scholfield, originally con- sisting of a small building that stored a carding machine as well as a dwelling house which contained spinning jacks and looms operated entirely by man power .Early on the mill manufactured broadcloth which was one of the first fabrics made throughout the New England mills .In the early days of the mill, the spinning, carding and weaving were done mostly by the James Scholfield family .The Scholfield’s carding machine used at Sutton is said to be the third carding machine ever operated in the United States .William Sutton began to operate the mill in 1826 Stevens Mill (1813) .The idea for Stevens Mill began in 1813 with the creation of a partnership be- tween Captain Nathaniel Stevens, Dr. -

Abstract Fashioning Slavery: Slaves and Clothing in the U.S. South, 1830–1865 By Katie Knowles This dissertation examines such varied sources as Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Eastman Johnson’s genre paintings, runaway advertisements, published narratives, plantation records, the WPA ex-slave narratives, and nearly thirty items of clothing with provenance connections to enslaved wearers. The research presented in the following pages seeks to reveal the complexities surrounding clothing and slave life in the antebellum South by examining a variety of sources in combination. Enslaved people resisted race-based slavery by individualizing their appearance when working and when playing, but they were ultimately unsuccessful in resisting their exclusion from the race-based American fashion system. In bringing together previous scholarship on slavery in the American South, material culture, and fashion studies, this project reveals the deep connections between race and fashion in the antebellum United States. Enslaved people struggled against a racist culture that attempted to exclude them as valid participants in American culture. The individuality expressed by slaves through personalizing their clothing was a tactic of resistance against racism and race- based slavery. In many instances, enslaved people chose to acquire and dress in fashionable Euro-American clothing, a method of resistance because it was an attempt by them to disrupt the racially exclusionary fashion system of the antebellum United States. Though relatively few garments survive today, the voices of enslaved people and the records of their oppressors provide a rich narrative that helps deconstruct the many ways in which slaves encountered clothing. Clothing played an integral part in the daily life of enslaved African Americans in the antebellum South and functioned in multi-faceted ways across the antebellum United States to racialize and engender difference, and to oppress a variety of people through the visual signs and cues of the fashion system. -
Mordansville
MORDANSVILLE EDITOR’S NOTE: Today, there only exists a remnant of Mordansville which in the latter part of the 1800s and early 1900s had a large woolen mill, sawmill, blacksmith, general store, and small hotel. It is approximately three miles north of Bloomsburg, located a short distance on the east side of State Route 42. The Sands family, Joseph E. and his son, Charles L., were prominent participants in the village’s economic life. When raising sheep for wool was a big business with area farmers in the closing decades of the nineteenth century, Charles operated the largest woolen mill in Columbia County. In addition, voters elected both men to the office of Columbia County Commissioner; Joseph served one term from 1875 to 1878 and Charles’ term was 1890 to 1893. The following article comes from the W.P.A. Project No. 5175, 1936, Columbia County History, at Bloomsburg Public Library. The author is not identified. The person relied in part on information found in two histories of Columbia County: Bates, Samuel P. History of Columbia and Montour Counties. Chicago: A. Warner & Co., 1887 and Historical and Biographic Annals of Columbia and Montour Counties Pennsylvania. Chicago: J. H. Beers & Company, 1915. There are several editorial revisions to the article to correct spelling and grammar errors, sentence structure, and the inclusion of additional content for clarity purposes. * * * * * Mordansville, a small community along Little Fishing Creek in Mt. Pleasant Township, was named after John Mordan who settled in the area during the 1790s. When more settlers moved into the area he built a sawmill that gave rise to a village.1 Years later in 1856 Joseph E. -
The History of Female Empowerment I: Regna
The History of Female Empowerment I: Regna December 7, 2019 Category: History Download as PDF One of the most significant neolithic societies of south-eastern Europe (in what would later be Dacia / Transnistria) is now known to archeologists as the Cucuteni-Trypillian civilization, which subsisted from the 6th to early 3rd millennium B.C. Their culture was overtly matriarchal; and their godhead was a female. The next major civilization (from c. 2600 B.C. to c. 1100 B.C.) was that of the Minoans, primarily located on Crete. That was also a predominantly matriarchal culture. The Minoans worshipped only goddesses (a precursor to Rhe[i]a–inspiration for the mythical princess, Ariadne). The enfranchisement of women goes back to the Bronze Age. Notable were the Sumerian “naditu”: women who owned and managed their own businesses. This is a reminder that mankind is a work-in- progress, making advancements in fits and starts. Such cultural saltations often occur pursuant to revolutionary movements; but sometimes civility is–as it were–baked into the cultural fabric by some serendipitous accident of history. To assay the empowerment of women across history and geography, let’s begin by surveying five ancient societies. Ancient Bharat[a] (India): Even as it was addled by the precedent of “varna” (a de facto caste system), the majority of women had a right to an education. Indeed, literacy was encouraged amongst both men and women; and it was even common for women to become “acharyas” (teachers). In the Cullavagga section of the “Vinaya Pitaka” (ref. the Pali Canon), Siddhartha Gautama (Buddha) declared that women are every bit as capable of achieving enlightenment as are men.
