  • Neolithic Society in Northern Greece: the Evidence of Ground Stone Artefacts
    Neolithic society in Northern Greece: the evidence of ground stone artefacts Volume I Christina Tsoraki Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Archaeology, University of Sheffield October 2008 to (j3en ABSTRACT Analysis of ground stone technology from the Neolithic of Greece rarely goes beyond incomplete descriptive accounts to focus on the activities performed with these tools and the contexts of their use. Ground stone products are seen as mundane static objects devoid of meaning and lacking significance. The aim of this thesis is to move away from incomplete accounts of ground stone technology and static typologies. Drawing upon the concepts of the chaine operatoire and 'object biographies' this thesis investigates ground stone technology as a social practice focusing on the life-cycle of artefacts from raw material selection to final deposition. The underlying premise is that a contextual approach can contribute to understanding the ways in which the production, consumption and discard of ground stone artefacts were structured within different forms and scales of social practice and the manner in which these differences articulated different meanings and social understandings. The aims of the thesis were materialised through the study of the rich ground stone assemblage from the LN settlement of Makriyalos, Greece. The analysis of the chaine operatoire of the Makriyalos ground stone assemblage revealed diverse technological choices expressed throughout the cycle of production and use. Established traditions existed according to which specific materials were considered to be appropriate for the production of different objects. Furthermore, detailed analysis suggests that the resulting objects were far from mundane artefacts but were instead active media for expressing choices informed by cultural understandings of appropriateness.

PPC, fully sensitized to the demand of Greek society for a better environment, has set environmental protection as one of the basic priorities of its policy on modernization and development. We fully recognize that the environmental upgrading of our power generation potential has been greatly delayed since the necessary investments should have been concluded in the past decade. On the other hand, we have not managed as yet to communicate the significant work of PPC in the exploitation of the country’s water potential through the development of significant Hydroelectric Power Plants. How many of our fellow citizens know, for example, that PPC projects secure the water supply for 2,500,000 consumers and the irrigation of 450,000 hectares of agricultural land? How many know that approximately 8,000,000 trees have been planted in exhausted PPC mines in order to create big air replenishment areas? Today, PPC executives and personnel do not only systematically follow all the developments on issues of climate change and environmental technologies, but also draw up the policies that will allow the Company to become the driving force behind the rapid development of a Green Economy in our country.

The UHI phenomenon is known almost from the beginning of cities’ urbanization. What encourages scientists in a global scale to select it as a study subject is that, the phenomenon becomes more pronounced at these years due to climate change and strong urbanization on a global scale. At the same time, there is a keen interest in the quality of peoples’ life in cities in relation to environmental and energy issues that are directly connected to the environment protection and the conservation of natural resources. Thessaloniki is a big city for Greece and a reference point for the Balkan space but for this work is the field of the UHI phenomenon research. The study was conducted using air temperatures and applying the Kriging Ordinary interpolation technique in ArcGIS.
