The Juniper Coast: a Survey of the Medieval Shipwrecks THE JUNIPER COAST: A SURVEY OF THE MEDIEVAL SHIPWRECKS OF NOVY SVET, UKRAINE A Thesis by JOHN ARTHUR ALBERTSON Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Chair of Committee, C. Wayne Smith Committee Members, Filipe Vieira de Castro Daniel Schwartz Head of Department, Cynthia Werner August 2014 Major Subject: Anthropology Copyright 2014 John Arthur Albertson ABSTRACT This thesis provides an accurate, comprehensive physical context for the extent underwater archaeological excavations in the Bay of Novy Svet, located on the southeast coast of the Crimean Peninsula. In addition, it presents vital new historical context and explores new archaeological assemblages discovered while mapping the 100 x 250m2 research site. These include minimal hull remains, concretions, ceramics and an assemblage of anchors and ships equipment dating from antiquity to the modern day. Certain of these may indicate an 11th century wreck site, while others provide probable evidence for seafaring on the bay as early as the foundation of Sudak in 212 A.D. or before. These findings reinforce the work they are built on, and provide improved digital tools for future research. Results are assessed alongside historic and archaeological documentation of medieval and modern activity in the region, including invasive and destructive actions around the Bay of Novy Svet. In addition, the historical record has suggested that a 13th century wreck in the bay may be a Pisan ship burned there by the Genoese after a battle in 1277. While no proof of correlation has been found to date, extent datasets do not preclude the possibility, and support it to some extent. Therefore, this thesis also presents a framework for describing and discussing the 13th century Pisa Ship and its potential actions within historical and maritime landscape contexts. Current research and conservation efforts are presented, hopefully serving as a platform for increasing those efforts locally and internationally in the future. ii For Clifford Arthur Albertson, Julie Anne Albertson and William George Albertson of course it was a perfect day for it and For Dr. Sergey Zelenko, Ms. Yana Morozova, Mr. Nikita Zelenko and all the members of the Novy Svet teams over the years Ἀρχόμενος σέο, Φοῖβε, παλαιγενέων κλέα φωτῶν μνήσομαι1 1 Rieu 1959, 35, 109. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Above all and including all, I would like to thank the global community of friends and families that I have had the honor and pleasure to share my life with over the years. Learning about our common anthropological past is by nature a multinational, multicultural endeavor – one that should bring us together as a global community and help us remember and celebrate our shared heritage. To these individuals, but above all others to my family, Dr. Vaclav Paris and Captain Craig Clark, USAF, I would like to re-express the dedication of an intrepid adventurer who penned my exact sentiments 133 years ago, and thank them who variously, in their own profound, sublime geniuses, have “inspired in me that love of natural history and true sport which enabled me to pass so many hours of thorough enjoyment in wild countries far from home.”2 ℘ Captain H.C. St. John, R.N., Ret. More specifically, I would like to thank my committee chair, Dr. C. Wayne Smith, and my committee members Dr. Filipe Castro and Dr. Dan Schwartz for their guidance, support and advice during the course of this research. 2 St. John 1880, iii. iv I would also like to thank the Centre for Underwater Archaeology (CUA) at the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kiev (TSNUK) and the Institute of Nautical Archaeology (INA) for their initial and continued support of my research; the faith and help of their personnel were indispensable to the success of this project. In particular I would like to acknowledge Dr. Sergey Zelenko, Yana Morozova, Nikita Zelenko and Officer Slava of CUA, and Dr. George Bass, Dr. Deborah Carlson and Tamara Hebert of INA. The friends, companions and mentors to whom I owe so many great adventures, moments and lessons are too many to name in full, and you know who you are in any case. But in particular, though in no particular order, I would like to thank Dr. Jessi Halligan for absolutely everything, Dr. Donny Hamilton, Dr. Pulak and Dr. Castro for their inspiration, Chad Gulseth, Rodrigo Torres, Nick and Sarah Budsberg, Justin Parkoff, Jim Jobling, Dr. Helen DeWolf, John Hamilton, Bill Charlton, Sheila Mathews, Josh Keene, Marion Coe, Dave Hoffman, David Brankovits, Dr. Tom Iliffe, Brett Gonzalez, Tamara Thomsen, Tuba Ekmekçi, Bilge and all staff at the BRC, Chris Cartellone, Ralf Singh-Bischofberger, Laura White, Chris Dostal, Lilia Campana, Dr. Dan Davis, Dr. Michael R. Waters, Morgan Smith, Neil Puckett and Sunshine Thomas, Ed Green, Dr. Kris Trego, Deniz Güney Akkor, Andrey Kulagin, Eugene Archangelski, Sergey Spluhin, Yuri Ivanov, Sergey Ivanov, Alexandra Bashenkova, Katerina Valenterova, Peter Fix, Amy Borgens, Max Pschorr and Rugger. v I would also like to acknowledge and thank the Anthropology department staff, particularly Cindy Hurt, Rebekah Luza and Marco Valadez, who are tireless in their advocacy for their students, and without whose help I could not have completed my work. Finally, I would like to thank the CUA, INA and CSFA teams that I have had the great pleasure to work with over the course of this research. We, like our adventurous predecessors, have drawn gossamer webs across the world, bridging countless barriers with bonds of friendship and mutual scholarly inquiry, bonds that are nearly invisible, and yet are of some of the strongest substance in the natural world. vi NOMENCLATURE TAMU Texas A&M University INA The Institute of Nautical Archaeology CUA The Centre for Underwater Archaeology TSNUK Taras Shevchenko National University of Kiev Nm Nautical Mile: 1,852 m, 6, 076.11 ft.

  • KERCH UPDATE January 2016
    KERCH UPDATE January 2016 News From Kerch The Jewish Museum The museum is located in a room in the Jewish community centre and, accordin to (senior administrator) Zoya, it “needs to be reconstructed”. Apparently, there were many Russian tourists who wanted to visit it in the summer and a number of aencies, includin the Ministry of Tourism and Resorts, are interested in renovatin it. However, they’re not willin to o%er any financial assistance. The Mayor of Kerch led Zoya to understand “that Jews are rich and should provide for themselves”! We at Alyth have to decide whether to make a contribution or whether we would rather spend our money on other projects. Day of National Unity In early November all the national communities in Kerch (and the Jews are rearded as one such community) athered in Lenin Square for a joint celebration. Lenin Square An ensemble from the city performed a Jewish dance and there were tents o%erin a Jewish cuisine. Stranely, the latter was supplied by local restaurants rather than by the community whose main contribution seems to have been the provision of free matzo. [We understand that had the day been better oranised the Jewish community’s contribution would have been more substantial.] The fact that Jews were ivin out matzo for free was talked about in the city for days afterwards – further evidence that anti -Semitic tropes remain alive and well in Kerch or an expression of enuine ratitude? Reli$ious services Services on Rosh Hashannah and Yom Kippur were led by members of the community with no outside assistance.

Unlike conventional grammars, it gives special attention to those areas of vocabulary and grammar which cause most difficulty to English speakers. Careful consideration is given throughout to questions of style, register, and politeness which are essential to achieving an appropriate level of formality or informality in writing and speech. The book surveys the contemporary linguistic scene and gives ample space to the new varieties of Italian that are emerging in modern Italy. The influence of the dialects in shaping the development of Italian is also acknowledged. Clear, readable and easy to consult via its two indexes, this is an essential reference for learners seeking access to the finer nuances of the Italian language. j. j. kinder is Associate Professor of Italian at the Department of European Languages and Studies, University of Western Australia.

  • European Medieval and Renaissance Cosmography: a Story of Multiple Voices
    Asian Review of World Histories 4:1 (January 2016), 35-81 © 2016 The Asian Association of World Historians doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.12773/arwh.2016.4.1.035 European Medieval and Renaissance Cosmography: A Story of Multiple Voices Angelo CATTANEO New University of Lisbon Lisbon, Portugal [email protected] Abstract The objective of this essay is to propose a cultural history of cosmography and cartography from the thirteenth to the sixteenth centuries. It focuses on some of the processes that characterized these fields of knowledge, using mainly western European sources. First, it elucidates the meaning that the term cosmography held during the period under consideration, and the sci- entific status that this composite field of knowledge enjoyed, pointing to the main processes that structured cosmography between the thirteenth centu- ry and the sixteenth century. I then move on to expound the circulation of cosmographic knowledge among Portugal, Venice and Lisbon in the four- teenth and fifteenth centuries. This analysis will show how cartography and cosmography were produced at the interface of articulated commercial, dip- lomatic and scholarly networks; finally, the last part of the essay focuses on the specific and quite distinctive use of cosmography in fifteenth-century European culture: the representation of “geo-political” projects on the world through the reformulation of the very concepts of sea and maritime net- works. This last topic will be developed through the study of Fra Mauro’s mid-fifteenth-century visionary project about changing the world connectiv- ity through the linking of several maritime and fluvial networks in the Indi- an Ocean, Central Asia, and the Mediterranean Sea basin, involving the cir- cumnavigation of Africa.

  • The 1848 Municipal Reports of the German Settlements on the Black Sea
    The 1848 Municipal Reports of the German Settlements on the Black Sea The external reason for writing these reports was the January 8, 1848 circular letter of Eugen von Hahn to all school superintendents and teachers of the German colonies under his authority as chairman of the Welfare Committee in Odessa. It contained the request to submit "brief historical overviews of the founding and existence" of the individual colonies within four months. This task was entrusted by E. von Hahn to the colony’s mayors in conJunction with the schoolteachers, who will certainly not refuse their cooperation. That E. von Hahn was entitled to ask the offices to write such reports, there is no doubt. Since the establishment of these self- governing bodies in the colonies they were subordinate to the chairman of the colonial authority and needed his confirmation. It was also the custom of the Welfare Committee to communicate with the territorial and school authorities. E. von Hahn, however, also addressed the school teachers in this circular. What follows are the 1848 reports for the 8 Crimean German colonies, namely: Neusatz, Friedental, Rosental, Kronental, Zürichtal, Heilbrunn, Sudak and Herzenberg. They have been translated into English from the German text document “DIE GEMEINDEBERICHTE VON 1848 DER DEUTSCHEN SIEDLUNGEN“ written by M. Woltner in 1941. The footnotes in that document have not been translated.

  • A Virtual Train Journey Along the Mare Ligure from Ventimiglia to Rome
    Italian Culture Newsletter Number 22 A Virtual Train Journey along the Mare Ligure from Ventimiglia to Rome. Marie and I have made this journey on a number of occasions. In doing so we have either made the journey in a single day albeit with a change of train, usually at Genova. On other occasions, we have spent an evening or even a few days at Genova and/or at Livorno or Pisa. The journey described will involve more stops on the way but could be more interesting on that account. The trip begins in Ventimiglia where we stayed overnight on our last day of our last holiday in Italy. This had been occasioned by the French railway strike which prevented any trains from running from Ventimiglia to Nice on the day of our arrival from Rome into the city at the Italian- French border in Liguria. Our first visit to Ventimiglia was in 2006 when some Italian friends from Cuneo, due north of Ventimiglia, in Piemonte, met us at the rail station in Ventimiglia to take us for a short stay at their apartment in Nice. On that occasion we didn’t see much of the city except for part of the old medieval town, which now mostly is the home of many of the southerners from Naples, Calabria and Sicily who moved north seeking employment after WWII. The old town is perched high above the new city with its long sea-front promenade and railway station. Ventimiglia is the ancient Albium Intemelium, the capital of the Intemelii, a Ligurian tribe which long resisted the Romans, until in 115 BC it was forced to submit to Marcus Aemilius Scaurus.

SHIP BUILDING AND REPAIRING IN ITALY, 1861-1913: NATIONAL AND REGIONAL TIME SERIES Abstract This paper presents the first comprehensive national and regional time-series estimates for ship building and repairing in post-Unification Italy. The path of the national aggregate differs markedly from the extant series, which cover merchant new-construction alone. The regional estimates point to considerable concentration: Liguria accounted for more than half the product, and Campania for almost another quarter. In Liguria, too, this sector represented up to a quarter of total industrial production; elsewhere, and nationally, it was barely significant.

  • Appendix I Lunar and Martian Nomenclature
    APPENDIX I LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE A large number of names of craters and other features on the Moon and Mars, were accepted by the IAU General Assemblies X (Moscow, 1958), XI (Berkeley, 1961), XII (Hamburg, 1964), XIV (Brighton, 1970), and XV (Sydney, 1973). The names were suggested by the appropriate IAU Commissions (16 and 17). In particular the Lunar names accepted at the XIVth and XVth General Assemblies were recommended by the 'Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr D. H. Menzel. The Martian names were suggested by the 'Working Group on Martian Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr G. de Vaucouleurs. At the XVth General Assembly a new 'Working Group on Planetary System Nomenclature' was formed (Chairman: Dr P. M. Millman) comprising various Task Groups, one for each particular subject. For further references see: [AU Trans. X, 259-263, 1960; XIB, 236-238, 1962; Xlffi, 203-204, 1966; xnffi, 99-105, 1968; XIVB, 63, 129, 139, 1971; Space Sci. Rev. 12, 136-186, 1971. Because at the recent General Assemblies some small changes, or corrections, were made, the complete list of Lunar and Martian Topographic Features is published here.
