Eat and Die: the Last Meal of Sacrificed Chimú Camelids At
Eat and Die: The Last Meal of Sacrificed Chimú Camelids at Huanchaquito-Las Llamas, Peru, as Revealed by Starch Grain Analysis Clarissa Cagnato , Nicolas Goepfert, Michelle Elliott, Gabriel Prieto, John Verano, and Elise Dufour This article reconstructs the final diet of sacrificed domestic camelids from Huanchaquito-Las Llamas to understand whether feeding was part of the ritual practice. The site is situated on the northern coast of Peru and is dated to the fifteenth century AD (Late Intermediate period; LIP). It was used by the Chimús to kill and bury a large number of camelids, mostly juveniles. We reconstructed the final meal of 11 of the sacrificed individuals by analyzing starch grains derived from the associated gut con- tents and feces. The starch grains were well preserved and allowed for the determination of five plant taxa. The comparison with previously published and new stable isotope analyses, which provide insights into long-term diet, indicates that the Chi- mús managed their herds by providing maize as fodder and allowing them to graze on natural pasture; yet they reserved special treatment for sacrificial animals, probably bringing them together a few hours or days before the sacrificial act. We show for the first time the consumption of unusual food products, which included manioc, chili peppers, and beans, as well as cooked foods. Our study provides unique information on Chimú camelid ritual and herding practices. Keywords: ritual diet, archaeobotany, stable isotope analysis, Late Intermediate period El presente artículo aborda la reconstrucción de la dieta ingerida por camélidos domesticados antes de ser sacrificados y enterrados en el sitio arqueológico Huanchaquito-Las Llamas, situado en la costa norte de Perú y data del siglo XV de nuestra era (periodo Intermedio Tardío). -

Wine in the Rogue Valley: from Peter Britt to Rebirth
Wine in the Rogue Valley: From Peter Britt to Rebirth By Willard Brown Southern Oregon University History 415 Fall, 1999 Introduction In a previous paper this author explored the origins of grape growing and winemaking in the in the Rogue Valley of southern Oregon. Peter Britt was credited with establishing the first vineyard around 1855,arrd later, he produced wine under the name Valley View Vineyards. By the end of the century Britt had introduced premium wine grapes from California and had disseminated cuttings to other growers for propagation and vineyard development.1 Following the death of Britt in 1905, his winery ceased operating-2 and after 1916 when Oregon prohibition took effect, wine production in the valley ceased altogether. It would be nearly sixty years before it would resume. No single factor can explain this extended absence, but a number of successive and sometimes interrelated events impacted the industry and delayed its return. In the following, we will examine these events and evaluate their role in the decline and the rebirth of this industry. The End of the Beginning Grape growing and winemaking in the Rogue Valley reached its apogee around 1890. At that time nearly seventy-five acres of vineyards were in production and a number were recently planted. Grapes were sold locally, sent to the Portland market, and used in the manufacture of wine and brandy.2 By 1903 grape acreage had not increased and may have declined somewhat Only five vineyards totaling sixty acres were noted in a newspaper account, although a number of those plantings emerging in 1890 were not mentioned.3 Appendix A summarizes several reports from 1889 to 1903. -
Greater China Hotel Report 2020
This report analyses the performance of Greater China’s Hotel Market Greater China Hotel Report knightfrank.com/research May 2020 GREATER CHINA HOTEL REPORT 2020 OVERVIEW Against the backdrop of a slowing domestic economy, coupled with global economic uncertainties and the protracted China–US trade war, the hotel industry in the Greater China region demonstrated weak performance in 2019. Among all major cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong, the Average Daily Rate (ADR) of five-star hotels shrank, and the occupancy rate dropped in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Macau still managed a slight increase in ADR, but the occupancy rate fell. The weak growth trajectory of the hotel industry was further dragged down by the COVID-19 outbreak and this is expected to continue in the first half of 2020. In Beijing, the number of tourist arrivals rooms to the market. By the end of 2019, declined, and demand for tourism the number of luxury guest rooms in accommodation weakened in 2019.

Banishment of Anti-Communist Chinese to Formosa: the British As Effectual Mediators in Malaya
International Journal of ChinaBanishment Studies of Anti-Communist Chinese to Formosa 351 Vol. 7, No. 3, December 2016, pp. 351-372 Banishment of Anti-Communist Chinese to Formosa: The British as Effectual Mediators in Malaya Low Choo Chin* Universiti Sains Malaysia Abstract This research examines the Malayan deportation regime by looking at the banishment of two categories of deportees to Formosa, who could not be deported to mainland China due to their anti-communist outlook. It aims to: 1) analyse an alternative solution to sending alien Chinese to Formosa instead of mainland China, 2) the shifting policy of the British in facilitating the banishment of anti-communist alien Chinese to Formosa, and 3) the attitude of the Federation government in threatening (both the British and Formosa) to send the Chinese to China, if the British consul failed to persuade Formosa to accept them. It asks how the relationship between Malaya, the British and Formosa shaped Malayan banishment practices. This article suggests that the practices were hampered by the absence of diplomatic channels between Malaya and Formosa and the reluctance of Malaya to deal on a non-official basis through the Free China Relief Association. This, then presented the British with the dilemma of whether or not they had a special responsibility to resolve the issue on behalf of its former colony. Keywords: Banishment, refugees, secret societies, Federation of Malaya, Commonwealth Relations Office, Formosa 1. Introduction This article surveys the role of the British, who acted as mediators on behalf of pre and post-independence Malaya. Owing much to the British consular post in Taiwan, Malaya was able to banish anti-communist Chinese to Formosa, with whom they did not have diplomatic relations. -

The Historic Winnemucca to the Sea Highway “Gateway to the Pacific Northwest”
Feb 2004 WINNEMUCCA to the SEA Highway The Historic Winnemucca to the Sea Highway “Gateway to the Pacific Northwest” John Ryczkowski The Winnemucca to the Sea highway was developed to establish a continu- ous, improved all-weather highway from US-40 (I-80) at Winnemucca, Nevada through Medford, Oregon and on to the Pacific coast at Crescent City, California. In the mid 1950’s there was no direct route west from Northern Nevada across South- ern Oregon and into California’s Redwood Empire. Community leaders from points along this proposed link formed the Winnemucca to the Sea Highway Association. The association worked with state and local governments to fund the design, con- struction and upgrade of the paved roadway for this east to west link across three states. The association had envisioned one highway number 140 applied to the complete route, as the parent major US highway was coast-to-coast US-40, the Victory Highway. Nevada and Oregon used state route 140 for their respective sections of the Winnemucca to the Sea Highway. But the renumbering or cosigning of federal highways was an obstacle that the Winnemucca to the Sea Association never did overcome, thus the hope of a continuous 140 designation for this link was never realized. Currently the traveler will follow seven different highway numbers from Winnemucca to Crescent City, they are US-95, state route-140, US-395, state Association brochure circa 1960’s route-62, Interstate-5, US-199 and US-101. Winnemucca, named after a local Paiute chief, has always been a crossroads town. -
