Politics and Policy: Rome and Liguria, 200-172 B.C
Politics and policy: Rome and Liguria, 200-172 B.C. Eric Brousseau, Department of History McGill University, Montreal June, 2010 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts. ©Eric Brousseau 2010 i Abstract Stephen Dyson’s The Creation of the Roman Frontier employs various anthropological models to explain the development of Rome’s republican frontiers. His treatment of the Ligurian frontier in the second century BC posits a Ligurian ‘policy’ crafted largely by the Senate and Roman ‘frontier tacticians’ (i.e. consuls). Dyson consciously avoids incorporating the pressures of domestic politics and the dynamics of aristocratic competition. But his insistence that these factors obscure policy continuities is incorrect. Politics determined policy. This thesis deals with the Ligurian frontier from 200 to 172 BC, years in which Roman involvement in the region was most intense. It shows that individual magistrates controlled policy to a much greater extent than Dyson and other scholars have allowed. The interplay between the competing forces of aristocratic competition and Senatorial consensus best explains the continuities and shifts in regional policy. Abstrait The Creation of the Roman Frontier, l’œuvre de Stephen Dyson, utilise plusieurs modèles anthropologiques pour illuminer le développement de la frontière républicaine. Son traitement de la frontière Ligurienne durant la deuxième siècle avant J.-C. postule une ‘politique’ envers les Liguriennes déterminer par le Sénat et les ‘tacticiens de la frontière romain’ (les consuls). Dyson fais exprès de ne pas tenir compte des forces de la politique domestique et la compétition aristocratique. Mais son insistance que ces forces cachent les continuités de la politique Ligurienne est incorrecte. -
I LIGURI APUANI Storiografia, Archeologia, Antropologia E Linguistica
I LIGURI APUANI storiografia, archeologia, antropologia e linguistica di Lanfranco Sanna I Liguri Prima di affrontare la storia dei liguri apuani è bene fare alcuni riferimenti sull' etnogenesi dei Liguri. Quando compare per la prima volta il nome «ligure» nella storia? Αιθιοπας τε Λιγυς τε ιδε Σκυθας ιππηµολγους «E gli Etiopi e i Liguri e gli Sciti mungitori di cavalle» L’esametro, citato da Eratostene di Cirene e da lui attribuito a Esiodo, conserva la più antica memoria dei Liguri giunta fino a noi (VIII-VII sec. a.C.). I Liguri, secondo i Greci, erano gli abitanti dell’Occidente. Esiodo L’aggettivo «ligure» ha un carattere letterario e linguistico allogeno, perché si deve totalmente inquadrare nell’evoluzione della fonetica greco-latina Ligues > Ligures. Anche oggi nessun dialetto ligure possiede il termine dialettale per definire se stesso tale, né un abitante delle regioni vicine chiamerà mai “liguri” gli abitanti della Liguria. Ma da dove deriva questo nome? All’inizio «Liguri» avrebbe significato «abitanti della pianura alluvionale del Rodano». I contatti dei navigatori e poi dei coloni greci proprio con le tribù liguri del delta del Rodano spiegherebbero la sua estensione a tutto ethnos. Sinteticamente l’origine e l’evoluzione del nome dei Liguri avrebbe seguito questo percorso: - 700 a. C.: i primi navigatori greci prendono contatti commerciali con gli Elysici di Narbona. Gli abitanti scendono nella pianura sottostante la rocca assumendo il nome di Ligues derivato dal sustrato indigeno e attribuito loro dai Greci. - 600 a. C.: i Focesi fondano Massalia (Marsiglia) e per estensione chiamano Ligues le popolazioni indigene sia a est cha a ovest del Rodano. -

Carrara Marble: a Nomination for 'Global Heritage Stone Resource
Downloaded from http://sp.lyellcollection.org/ at Books Editorial Committee on May 19, 2017 Carrara Marble: a nomination for ‘Global Heritage Stone Resource’ from Italy P. PRIMAVORI Dimension Stone International Consultant; Teacher in the Master ‘Architecture and Construction: contemporary design with natural stone’, Department of Architecture & Urban Studies, Politecnico of Milan, Italy (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: Carrara Marble, from Italy, probably one of the most famous dimension stones in the collective memory and in ordinary people, is here nominated as a suitable ‘Global Heritage Stone Resource’. Quarried since pre-Roman times, the Carrara marble is the testimonial of an area/industry that was able – for a variety of reasons not easily repeatable in future stone history – from the dawn of the stone sector, to trigger a flywheel effect on a global scale. Suitable for any environment and cultural context, this versatile marble has been appreciated in almost any field of application – from building to architecture, from fine arts to urban landscape, from funerary art to modern 3D design – probably reaching its highest point in the eternal works of famous sculpturers, artists and architects such as Michelangelo, Donatello, Jacopo Della Quercia, Canova, Bernini, and many others. It is currently excavated in more than 100 quarries, processed almost everywhere and sold all over the world. Carrara Marble takes its name from the Italian city erroneously used for a long time to define a multi- of Carrara where it has been quarried for more tude of different marbles (more than one hundred than 2000 years and is still being quarried to this commercial varieties) extracted in the whole Apuan day at a rate of about 1 500 000 tons per year. -

Military Defeats, Casualties of War and the Success of Rome
MILITARY DEFEATS, CASUALTIES OF WAR AND THE SUCCESS OF ROME Brian David Turner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2010 Approved By: Advisor: Prof. R. J. A. Talbert Prof. F. Naiden Prof. D. M. Reid Prof. J. Rives Prof. W. Riess Prof. M. T. Boatwright © 2010 Brian David Turner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT BRIAN DAVID TURNER: Military Defeats, Casualties of War and the Success of Rome (Under the direction of Richard J. A. Talbert) This dissertation examines how ancient Romans dealt with the innumerable military losses that the expansion and maintenance of their empire demanded. It considers the prose writers from Polybius (c. 150 B.C.E.) through Dio Cassius (c. 230 C.E.), as well as many items from the material record, including triumphal arches, the columns of Trajan and Marcus, and other epigraphic and material evidence from Rome and throughout the empire. By analyzing just how much (or how little) the Romans focused on their military defeats and casualties of war in their cultural record, I argue that the various and specific ways that the Romans dealt with these losses form a necessary part of any attempt to explain the military success of Rome. The discussion is organized into five chapters. The first chapter describes the treatment and burial of the war dead. Chapter two considers the effect war losses had on the morale of Roman soldiers and generals. -

Naturforsch. 35 a, 267-279 (1980); received January 7, 1980 Dedicated to Professor H. Hintenberger on the occasion of his 70tli birthday Cosmic-ray-produced stable nuclides of Ca (mass number: 42, 43, 44 and 46), Ti (46, 47, 49 and 50), V (50), Cr (50, 53 and 54) and the long-lived nuclides, 40K and 53Mn were determined along the radial axes of the iron meteorites Grant and Treysa. Grant was extensively examined and the results compared with rare gas data. Although Treysa does not include enough samples to allow detailed analysis, the depth profile shows typical features for a small meteorite. The results were compared with calculated profiles of 40K, 49Ti and 53Mn using thick bombard- ment data. The approximate pre-atmospheric radii of Grant and Treysa were determined to be 30 cm and 14 cm, respectively. The effect of space erosion was also estimated by comparing the data of 49Ti and radioactive 53Mn in Grant and Treysa with the calculated patterns. It is suggested that space erosion of both meteorites is small (<0.8Ä/y) during the cosmic-ray exposure of several hundred million years. 1.

NUMBER 2 I 90 SEPTEMBER IO, I964 The Meteorite and Tektite Collection of the American Museum of Natural History BY BRIAN MASON' INTRODUCTION The first meteorite received by the American Museum of Natural History was a 46-gram piece of the Searsmont chondrite, presented by G. M. Brainerd of Rockland, Maine, in 1872. For some years the col- lection grew very slowly. Hovey (1896) published the first catalogue, in which he enumerated 55 pieces representing 26 different meteorites. However, the status of the collection was radically changed in 1900 with the acquisition of the Bement collection of minerals, through the gener- osity ofJ. Pierpont Morgan. Besides some 12,000 mineral specimens, the Bement collection contained 580 meteorites, representing nearly 500 different falls and finds. This acquisition established the meteorite col- lection of this museum as one of the great collections of the world, a situation that has been maintained by more recent additions. Some of the more notable additions may be briefly noted. In 1904 three Cape York irons, brought from Greenland in 1897 by R. E. Peary, were deposited in the museum. These are known as "Ahnighito" or "The Tent," "The Woman," and "The Dog" (fig. 1). "Ahnighito," the largest of the three, is approximately 11 feet long, 7 feet high, and 6 feet thick. Various estimates of its weight, ranging from 30 to 80 tons, have been published. Thanks to the Toledo Scale Company it was mounted 1 Chairman, Department of Mineralogy, the American Museum of Natural History. -

E-mail: [email protected] (Received 05 August 2019; revision accepted 12 February 2020) Abstract–We measured specific activities of the long-lived cosmogenic radionuclides 60Fe in 28 iron meteorites and 53Mn in 41 iron meteorites. Accelerator mass spectrometry was applied at the 14 MV Heavy Ion Accelerator Facility at ANU Canberra for all samples except for two which were measured at the Maier-Leibnitz Laboratory, Munich. For the large iron meteorite Twannberg (IIG), we measured six samples for 53Mn. This work doubles the number of existing individual 60Fe data and quadruples the number of iron meteorites studied for 60Fe. We also significantly extended the entire 53Mn database for iron meteorites. The 53Mn data for the iron meteorite Twannberg vary by more than a factor of 30, indicating a significant shielding dependency.
