  • Doreen J. Waugh
    Doreen J. Waugh In (and around) Scatness* Introduction Place-names are cultural artefacts which can be scrutinised by researchers, in much the same way that a structure emerging out of the ground at the Old Scatness archaeological dig can be examined, with the aim of extracting from the individual place-name some information about the people who first created it, the linguistic and cultural environment in which they used it and the changing historical environment in which it then survived throughout ensuing centuries. The basic task of the toponymist is 'to provide etymologies based on the collection and study of early spellings', as Margaret Gelling noted in her excellent study of Place-Names in the Landscape (Gelling 1984, 1-2). Archaeologists, historians and scholars in other disciplines can then use the material as a supportive, analytical tool. One Shetland historian, at least, would argue that 'Scholars of place-names should aim to do more than collect names (or celebrate the 'nation' which coined them). They should attempt to reconstruct, or at least probe into, the societies where the names came to life' (Smith 1995, 26). Toponymists and archaeologists may approach their raw material in different ways, but it has long been recognised that the two disciplines are complementary. For the toponymist, the existence of an archaeological site can confirm the appropriateness of a place-name and, if the site has been excavated and dated, can help towards identifying a date for the creation of the place-name, which is often otherwise very difficult to establish, particularly in places like Shetland where the early written record is limited in extent.

  • Sumburgh, Sandwick & Dunrossness
    Five walks in Sumburgh, Sandwick & Dunrossness areas to get you out & about and get more physically active! WANDERS Sumburgh, Sandwick & Dunrossness St Ninian’s Isle—photo by Andrew Simpson Andrew by Isle—photo St Ninian’s PEERIE PEERIE WANDERS “Peerie Wanders” has been designed and developed by NHS Shetland Health Promotion Department in collaboration with Shetland Islands Council to help you be more active. This booklet contains a number of walks to get you out & about and help you on your journey to become more active! WHY WALKING? Brisk walking is a great way to be active and stay healthy—it’s not surprising that walking is the most popular leisure activity in Scotland. Walking is suitable for almost everyone and you don’t have to be fit to start with—you just have to get started. WHY BE MORE ACTIVE? The human body needs to be active to function properly, but modern living means that most of us are not active enough. Being more active means: • More energy • Stronger, toned muscles • A lower risk of heart disease, stroke and osteoporosis • A greater sense of well-being • Help to sleep better • Improved confidence HOW OFTEN SHOULD I BE ACTIVE? Guidelines state that you should aim to do 150 minutes of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity a week: Aim to build up to half an hour of moderate activity on most days to try and meet the guidelines. These book lets are designed to help you get walking to reach your goal. If you combine walking with other activities then all the better.

  • Form and Function in the Lower Palaeolithic: History, Progress, and Continued Relevance
    doi 10.4436/jass.95017 JASs Invited Reviews Journal of Anthropological Sciences Vol. 95 (2017), pp. 67-108 Form and function in the Lower Palaeolithic: history, progress, and continued relevance Alastair J. M. Key1 & Stephen J. Lycett2 1) School of Anthropology and Conservation, University of Kent, Canterbury, Kent, CT2 7NR, United Kingdom e-mail: [email protected] 2) Department of Anthropology (Evolutionary Anthropology Laboratory), University at Buffalo, SUNY, Amherst, NY 14261, U.S.A. Summary - Percussively flaked stone artefacts constitute a major source of evidence relating to hominin behavioural strategies and are, essentially, a product or byproduct of a past individual’s decision to create a tool with respect to some broader goal. Moreover, it has long been noted that both differences and recurrent regularities exist within and between Palaeolithic stone artefact forms. Accordingly, archaeologists have frequently drawn links between form and functionality, with functional objectives and performance often being regarded consequential to a stone tool’s morphological properties. Despite these factors, extensive reviews of the related concepts of form and function with respect to the Lower Palaeolithic remain surprisingly sparse. We attempt to redress this issue. First we stress the historical place of form–function concepts, and their role in establishing basic ideas that echo to this day. We then highlight methodological and conceptual progress in determining artefactual function in more recent years. Thereafter, we evaluate four specific issues that are of direct consequence for evaluating the ongoing relevance of form–function concepts, especially with respect to their relevance for understanding human evolution more generally.

THE BOBBS-MERRILL REPRINT SERIES IN ANTHROPOLOGY Prod, No, 69094 Man-Land Relationships of Acheulian Hunter-Gatherers Karl W. Butzer TOOLMAKING TRAOITIONS OF THE EARLY AND MIDDLE PLEISTOCENE The primary record of prehistoric man during the long span of mid­ Pleistocene time is provided by stone artifacts. TM earliest stan­ dardized toolmaking tradition known today is represented among the middle and upper strata of Bed II at Olduvai Gorge (M.D. Leakey, 1967). The most notable implements, which are replicated in consid­ erable numbers, are hand-axes. These are made from large flakes or pebbles, on which a significant portion of the circl/mference has been trimmed from two surfaces to produce a sharp edge. Trimming usually extends far back from the edges of such tools and often covers most or all of both opposed surfaces. As a consequence, hand-axes are frequently known as "bifaces" (=two-faced implements). Generally, when a hand-axe is viewed in plan, one end will be relatively pointed (see Fig. 66, [1 and 2]), while the other (called the "butt") may be rounded and sometimes completely unworked. Most hand-axes are eas­ ily recognized as man-made artifacts, and have therefore been subject to uncontrolled collecting for almost a century. For better or for worse these implements have become the index fossil of the Lower Paleolithic of Europe, and of the Earlier Stone Ages of Africa and India. It is, in fact, common to speak of "hand-axe industries," almost all of which are generally grouped within the Acheulian "culture" or-better-industrial tradition.

  • The Old World Paleolithic and the Development of a National Collection
    /i £\ The Old World Paleolithic and the Development of a National Collection MICHAEL PETRAGLIA and RICHARD POTTS ILLUSTRATIONS BY MARCIA BAKRY SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY • NUMBER 48 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement; "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series. Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.
