Bitasion Les Habitations-Plantations Constituent Le Creuset Historique Et Symbolique Où Fut Fondu L’Alliage Original Que Sont Les Cultures Antillaises
Kelly & Bérard Ouvrage dirigé par Bitasion Les habitations-plantations constituent le creuset historique et symbolique où fut fondu l’alliage original que sont les cultures antillaises. Elles sont le berceau des sociétés créoles contemporaines qui y ont puisé tant leur forte parenté que leur Bitasion - Archéologie des habitations-plantations des Petites Antilles diversité. Leur étude a été précocement le terrain de prédilection des historiens. Les archéologues antillanistes se consacraient alors plus volontiers à l’étude des sociétés précolombiennes. Ainsi, en dehors des travaux pionniers de J. Handler et F. Lange à la Barbade, c’est surtout depuis la fin des années 1980 qu’un véritable développement de l’archéologie des habitations-plantations antillaises a pu être observé. Les questions pouvant être traitées par l’archéologie des habitations-plantations sont extrêmement riches et multiples et ne sauraient être épuisées par la publication d’un unique ouvrage. Les différents chapitres qui composent ce livre dirigé par K. Kelly et B. Bérard n’ont pas vocation à tendre à l’exhaustivité. Ils nous semblent, par contre, être représentatifs, par la variété des questions abordée et la diversité des angles d’approche, de la dynamique actuelle de ce champ de la recherche. Cette diversité est évidemment liée à celle des espaces concernés: les habitations-plantations de cinq îles des Petites Antilles : Antigua, la Guadeloupe, la Dominique, la Martinique et la Barbade sont ici étudiées. Elle est aussi, au sein d’un même espace, due à la cohabitation de différentes pratiques universitaires. Nous espérons que cet ouvrage, tout en diffusant une information jusqu’à présent trop dispersée, sera le point de départ de nouveaux travaux. -

7.0 Cistern Design
7.0 Cistern Design 7.1 Overview of Practice Cisterns, or rainwater harvesting systems, are used to capture runoff, primarily from roof tops. Sometimes runoff from pavement is also temporarily held in cisterns. A cistern is simply a tank that stores runoff and range in size from 50 gallons (commonly referred to as rain barrels) to thousands of gallons. Cisterns can be employed above or below ground, with the former type of cistern typically being cheaper to purchase and install. Above ground cisterns will be the focus of this document. These systems vary in size, color, and shape. Preference shall be given to dark colored, non- translucent or covered cisterns as this limits the ability of light to penetrate the tank and cause algal growth. Figures 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3 show examples of cisterns installed in various locations in North Carolina. Figure 7.1 3,000-gallon cistern installation in Greenville, N.C. 47 Figure 7.2 5,600-gallon cistern in Kinston, N.C. Figure 7.3 300-gallon cistern in Greenville, N.C. Screening overflow outlet pipes are recommended to help to reduce insect and rodent access. The cistern is part of a larger system consisting of gutters and inflow piping, outlet piping, and often a pump (Figure 7.5). Rainwater captured in cisterns is used, or harvested, for uses such as irrigation, toilet flushing, vehicle washing, and clothes washing. Irrigation and car washing are expected to be the primary use for stormwater collected in backyard cisterns. These uses are non-potable (non- drinkable) only. -
