    Evidence for the Use of Raw Materials for the Manufacture of Black-Gloss Ware and Italian Sigillata at Arezzo and Volterra J. Theodore Peña – University of California, Berkeley Abtract A program of compositional analysis involving the mineralogical (optical miscroscopy, petrographic analysis) and chemical (NAA) characterization of Black-Gloss Ware and Italian Sigillata from the site of Cetamura del Chianti along with tiles made from potting clay from several locations in northern Etruria sheds light on the use of raw materials for the manufacture of these two pottery classes at Volterra and Arezzo. The program achieved no textural or chemical matches between the specimens of Black-Gloss Ware of likely Volterran origin and several specimens of clay from outcrops of the Plio-Plestocene marine clay in the environs of Volterra that were very probably employed for the manufacture of this pottery. This suggests that the manufacture of this pottery involved the levigation of the clay. In contrast, an excellent textural and chemical match was obtained between the specimens of Black-Gloss Ware and Italian Sigillata of likely Arretine origin and specimens of the argille di Quarata lacustrine clay (formation agQ) that outcrops along the Torrente Castro/Canale Maestro della Chiana to the west of Arezzo. This indicates that the manufacture of Black-Gloss Ware and Italian Sigillata at Arezzo did not involve the levigation of the clay employed. The agQ formation is overlain by a bed of peat that is effectively unique in peninsular Italy. Peat has been regularly used as a fuel for pottery manufacture in northern Europe, and it seems likely that the producers of these two pottery classes at Arezzo employed it for this purpose.

  • Reggio Emilia: Results of the Intercultural Cities Index Date: February 2015 a Comparison Between 70 Cities1
    Reggio Emilia: Results of the Intercultural Cities Index Date: February 2015 A comparison between 70 cities1 Introduction The Intercultural Cities programme is a joint initiative between the Council of Europe and the European Commission. It seeks to explore the potential of an intercultural approach to integration in communities with culturally diverse populations. The cities participating in the programme are reviewing their governance, policies, discourse and practices from an intercultural point of view. In the past, this review has taken the form of narrative reports and city profiles – a form which is rich in content and detail. However, it is relatively weak as a tool to monitor and communicate progress. The new Intercultural City Index has been designed as a new benchmarking tool for the cities taking part in the pilot phase of the programme as well as future participants. As of today 70 cities have undergone their intercultural policies analysis using the Intercultural City Index: Amadora (Portugal), Arezzo (Italy), Barcelona (Spain), Beja (Portugal), Bergen (Norway), Bilbao (Spain), Botkyrka (Sweden), Campi Bisenzio (Italy), Cartagena (Spain), Casalecchio di Rena (Italy), Castellón (Spain), Castelvetro (Italy), Coimbra (Portugal), Constanta (Romania), Copenhagen (Denmark), Donostia-San Sebastian2 (Spain), Dortmund (Germany), Dublin (Ireland), Duisburg (Germany), Erlangen (Germany), Forli (Italy), Fucecchio (Italy), Fuenlabrada (Spain), Geneva (Switzerland), Genoa (Italy), Getxo (Spain), Haifa (Israel), Hamburg (Germany), Izhevsk

His developments of the hexachord system, solmization syllables, and music notation revolutionized the teaching and learning of music during his time and laid the foundation for our modern system of music. While previous theorists were interested in the philosophical and mathematical nature of music, Guido’s desire to aid singers in the learning process was practical.
