  • Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research
    Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research Gisela Eberhardt Fabian Link (eds.) BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD has become increasingly diverse in recent years due to developments in the historiography of the sciences and the human- ities. A move away from hagiography and presentations of scientifi c processes as an inevitable progression has been requested in this context. Historians of archae- olo gy have begun to utilize approved and new histo- rio graphical concepts to trace how archaeological knowledge has been acquired as well as to refl ect on the historical conditions and contexts in which knowledge has been generated. This volume seeks to contribute to this trend. By linking theories and models with case studies from the nineteenth and twentieth century, the authors illuminate implications of communication on archaeological knowledge and scrutinize routines of early archaeological practices. The usefulness of di erent approaches such as narratological concepts or the concepts of habitus is thus considered. berlin studies of 32 the ancient world berlin studies of the ancient world · 32 edited by topoi excellence cluster Historiographical Approaches to Past Archaeological Research edited by Gisela Eberhardt Fabian Link Bibliographic information published by the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek The Deutsche Nationalbibliothek lists this publication in the Deutsche Nationalbibliographie; detailed bibliographic data are available in the Internet at http://dnb.d-nb.de. © 2015 Edition Topoi / Exzellenzcluster Topoi der Freien Universität Berlin und der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin Typographic concept and cover design: Stephan Fiedler Printed and distributed by PRO BUSINESS digital printing Deutschland GmbH, Berlin ISBN 978-3-9816384-1-7 URN urn:nbn:de:kobv:11-100233492 First published 2015 The text of this publication is licensed under Creative Commons BY-NC 3.0 DE.

  • The Anglophone Toponyms Associated with John Smith's <I
    names, Vol. 57 No. 4, December, 2009, 189–207 The Anglophone Toponyms Associated with John Smith’s Description and Map of New England Matthew H Edney University of Southern Maine, USA This article clarifies a well-known but hitherto unexamined phenomenon: the Anglophone toponyms imposed on Captain John Smith’s map, New England ([1617]). It explains names that are otherwise obscure to modern historians and geographers, it considers the pattern of the new toponyms, and it allocates responsibility for the names not only to the future Charles I but also to Smith himself. It also lists the indigenous place and polity names recorded by Smith in his Description of New England (1616). It concludes with a cautionary tale concerning historiographic presumptions about the map’s efficacy in shaping the adoption of toponyms by subsequent English colonists. keywords Captain John Smith, Charles I (Great Britain), New England, Cartography, Colonization, Promotional propaganda Introduction Captain John Smith’s map New England (Figure 1) has long been famous for the manner in which its Anglophone toponyms were selected by the then fourteen-year- old future Charles I (Edney, 2010). Smith had developed the idea of a colony in 1614 when he had voyaged quickly down the east coast of northern Virginia from Mt Desert Island to Cape Cod; he called this putative colony New England by analogy to the Nova Albion previously declared by Sir Francis Drake on the west coast of North America. To promote this colony, he prepared both New England and a letterpress pamphlet, A Description of New England (Smith, 1616: 3).

Licence number AL50684A OurRef 13615682v8 Ipswich Economic Area Sector Needs Assessment : Final Report Executive Summary Lichfields has prepared this Sector Needs Assessment (SNA) on behalf of Ipswich, Babergh, Mid Suffolk and Suffolk Coastal councils. The purpose of the SNA is to provide a ‘business as usual’ assessment of the current and future growth potential of key sectors of the economy to help inform planning policy approaches to accommodating future economic growth and business needs across the Ipswich Economic Area (IEA). Forecasts of employment growth for each sector have been sourced from the 2016 East of England Forecasting Model (EEFM) for the period 2014-2036. These forecasts represent a ‘business as usual’ trajectory of growth based on recent economic trends within the study area and provide a starting point view of how the IEA’s economy may change over the coming years. Job growth that is higher than indicated by the EEFM could be brought about by policy or development interventions, and this is explored through consultation with a range of stakeholders including commercial agents, industry representatives and business organisations. Existing information and data sources relevant to each sector are also integrated within the analysis.
