  • House in Carpathians1
    Ethnologia Polona, 2014, 35, s. 25-77 Ethnologia Polona, vol. 35: 2014, 25 – 77 PL ISSN 0137 - 4079 HOUSE IN CARPATHIANS1 JIŘÍ LANGER AND HELENA BOČKOVÁ ROŽNOV POD RADHOŠTĚM and BRNO, CZECH REPUBLIC INTRODUCTION The problem of the folk culture has always been a great topic for the ethnographers. Since the last century an attention of many explorers from many countries has focused on it. A common interest in finding the answers to the questions of the causes of the specifications of their cultural manifestation in the Carpathians connected them. They seemed to be different from firmly rooted ideas about the typical features of individual nations. Anachronisms provoke everybody who was looking for the originalities of their own national or Slavonic culture. They served to the creating of romantic fanta- sies about the culture in the mountains surviving into the period in which European nations formed. From the point of view of a historian this culture is considered to be very young, having been created before our eyes. Our generation could still study it by the very watching. We know it from autopsy. It differed from neighbouring lower situated areas with the early evolution forms, transferring of their phenomena for long distances, strong penetration and co operation with neighbouring social environments and ethnic heterogeneity. This all enabled people in the mountains to survive even in the worst climatic and social conditions. The principles of the folk culture being thought to be specific for the whole Carpathians touching vast areas of Europe connected fairly different forms of the way of the life from the Balkan to White Russia and from the river Morava (CZ) as far as the coast of the Black Sea.

  • Climatic Implications of Cirque Distribution in the Romanian Carpathians: Palaeowind Directions During Glacial Periods

Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com) DOI: 10.1002/jqs.1363 Climatic implications of cirque distribution in the Romanian Carpathians: palaeowind directions during glacial periods MARCEL MIˆNDRESCU,1 IAN S. EVANS2* and NICHOLAS J. COX2 1 Department of Geography, University of Suceava, Suceava, Romania 2 Department of Geography, Durham University, Durham, UK Mıˆndrescu, M., Evans, I. S. and Cox, N. J. Climatic implications of cirque distribution in the Romanian Carpathians: palaeowind directions during glacial periods. J. Quaternary Sci., (2010). ISSN 0267-8179. Received 10 May 2009; Revised 23 October 2009; Accepted 2 November 2009 ABSTRACT: The many glacial cirques in the mountains of Romania indicate the distribution of former glacier sources, related to former climates as well as to topography. In the Transylvanian Alps (Southern Carpathians) cirque floors rise eastward at 0.714 m kmÀ1, and cirque aspects tend ENE, confirming the importance of winds from some westerly direction. There is a contrast between two neighbouring ranges: the Fa˘ga˘ras¸, where the favoured aspect of cirques is ENE, and the Iezer, where the tendency is stronger and to NNE. This can be explained by the Iezer Mountains being sheltered by the Fa˘ga˘ras¸, which implies precipitation-bearing winds from north of west at times of mountain glaciation. Palaeoglaciation levels also suggest winds from north of west, which is consistent with aeolian evidence from Pleistocene dunes, yardangs and loess features in the plains of Hungary and south- western Romania. In northern Romania (including Ukrainian Maramures¸) the influence of west winds was important, but sufficient only to give a northeastward tendency in cirque aspects.

BUCUR 1, 5 Emanoil SĂSĂRAN 1, 6 Ioan COCIUBA 7 Abstract: The study of the carbonate clasts and matrix of a problematic sedimentary formation (the Gugu Breccia) from the Pădurea Craiului Mountains reveals new information concerning its depositional environment and stratigraphic position. The identified microfacies and micropaleontological assem- blages demonstrate that all the sampled limestone clasts from the Gugu Breccia represent remnants of a fragmented Urgonian-type carbonate platform. The Barremian age of the clasts suggests that the stratigraphic position of the Gugu Breccia at its type locality could be uppermost Barremian-lowermost Aptian, a fact demonstrated also by the absence of elements from Lower Cretaceous carbonate plat- forms higher in the stratigraphic column (e.g., Aptian or Albian) of the Bihor Unit. The sedimentological observations together with the matrix mineralogy bring new arguments for the recognition of terrige- nous input during the formation of the Gugu Breccia.

In addition to a growth of population, economic expansion - particularly in the railway age - greatly increased pressure on resources: evident through peasant colonisation of high mountain surfaces (as in the Apuseni Mountains) as well as industrial growth most evident in a number of metallurgical centres and the logging activity following the railway alignments through spruce-fir forests. Spa tourism is examined and particular reference is made to the pastoral economy of the Sibiu area nourished by long-wave transhumance until more stringent frontier controls gave rise to a measure of diversification and resettlement. It is evident that ecological risk increased, with some awareness of the need for conservation, although substantial innovations did not occur until after the First World War Rezumat: Ca parte componentă a unui studiu asupra ecoregiunii carpatice, pentru a identifica unele caracteristici privitoare la transformările din domeniul geografiei umane, acest articol se referă la secolele XVIII şi XIX când au existat măsuri politice unitare ale unui Imperiu Habsburgic aflat în expansiune.

    Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle © Décembre Vol. LIII pp. 115–123 «Grigore Antipa» 2010 DOI: 10.2478/v10191-010-0008-5 THE CATALOGUE OF THE FRESHWATER CRAYFISH (CRUSTACEA: DECAPODA: ASTACIDAE) FROM ROMANIA PRESERVED IN “GRIGORE ANTIPA” NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY OF BUCHAREST IORGU PETRESCU, ANA-MARIA PETRESCU Abstract. The largest collection of freshwater crayfish of Romania is preserved in “Grigore Antipa” National Museum of Natural History of Bucharest. The collection consists of 426 specimens of Astacus astacus, A. leptodactylus and Austropotamobius torrentium. Résumé. La plus grande collection d’écrevisses de Roumanie se trouve au Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle «Grigore Antipa» de Bucarest. Elle comprend 426 exemplaires appartenant à deux genres et trois espèces, Astacus astacus, A. leptodactylus et Austropotamobius torrentium. Key words: Astacidae, Romania, museum collection, catalogue. INTRODUCTION The first paper dealing with the freshwater crayfish of Romania is that of Cosmovici, published in 1901 (Bãcescu, 1967) in which it is about the freshwater crayfish from the surroundings of Iaºi. The second one, much complex, is that of Scriban (1908), who reports Austropotamobius torrentium for the first time, from Racovãþ, Bahna basin (Mehedinþi county). Also Scriban made the first comment on the morphology and distribution of the species Astacus astacus, A. leptodactylus and Austropotamobius torrentium, mentioning their distinctive features. Also, he published the first drawings of these species (cephalothorax). Entz (1912) dedicated a large study to the crayfish of Hungary, where data on the crayfish of Transylvania are included. Probably it is the amplest paper dedicated to the crayfish of the Romanian fauna from the beginning of the last century, with numerous data on the outer morphology, distinctive features between species, with more detailed figures and with the very first morphometric measures, and also with much detailed data on the distribution in Transylvania.

Severtzov Institute of Problems of Evolution and Ecology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Leninski Prospect 33, 119017 Moscow, Russia Abstract: Alpine grasslands in the Southern Carpathian Mts, Romania, harbour an extraordinarily high diversity of plants and invertebrates, including Carpathic endemics. In the past decades, intensive sheep grazing has caused a dramatic de- crease in biodiversity and even led to eroded soils at many places in the Carpathians. Because of limited food resources, sheep are increasingly forced to graze on steep slopes, which were formerly not grazed by livestock and are considered as local biodiversity hotspots. We examined species richness, abundance and number of endemic vascular plants and terres- trial gastropods on steep slopes that were either grazed by sheep or ungrazed by livestock in two areas of the Southern Carpathians. On calcareous soils in the Bucegi Mts, a total of 177 vascular plant and 19 gastropod species were recorded. Twelve plant species (6.8%) and three gastropod species (15.8%) were endemic to the Carpathians.
