  • Indian Hieroglyphs
    Indian hieroglyphs Indus script corpora, archaeo-metallurgy and Meluhha (Mleccha) Jules Bloch’s work on formation of the Marathi language (Bloch, Jules. 2008, Formation of the Marathi Language. (Reprint, Translation from French), New Delhi, Motilal Banarsidass. ISBN: 978-8120823228) has to be expanded further to provide for a study of evolution and formation of Indian languages in the Indian language union (sprachbund). The paper analyses the stages in the evolution of early writing systems which began with the evolution of counting in the ancient Near East. Providing an example from the Indian Hieroglyphs used in Indus Script as a writing system, a stage anterior to the stage of syllabic representation of sounds of a language, is identified. Unique geometric shapes required for tokens to categorize objects became too large to handle to abstract hundreds of categories of goods and metallurgical processes during the production of bronze-age goods. In such a situation, it became necessary to use glyphs which could distinctly identify, orthographically, specific descriptions of or cataloging of ores, alloys, and metallurgical processes. About 3500 BCE, Indus script as a writing system was developed to use hieroglyphs to represent the ‘spoken words’ identifying each of the goods and processes. A rebus method of representing similar sounding words of the lingua franca of the artisans was used in Indus script. This method is recognized and consistently applied for the lingua franca of the Indian sprachbund. That the ancient languages of India, constituted a sprachbund (or language union) is now recognized by many linguists. The sprachbund area is proximate to the area where most of the Indus script inscriptions were discovered, as documented in the corpora.

  • War Record of the York & Lancaster Regiment, 1900-1902
    CHAPTER XII COLUMNS AND BLOCKHOUSES T was now quite evident that the Proclama­ I tion of August 6th had failed, and there­ fore fresh measures must be adopted if peace was to be attained. The Boers were directing their energies towards evading any decisive engagement, aiming rather at harassing and annoying us in every possible way, in the vain hope of thereby wearing out our resources, our spirits, and our patience. Their training, together with the nature of the country and their intimate knowledge of it, combined to favour this irregular mode of war­ fare, and it was no easy task for us to cope with opponents who, whenever the odds were against them, could speedily disperse their forces, large or small, and reassemble at any given spot miles away. To meet these difficulties Lord Kitchener at first tried the plan of increasing the numbers and mobility of the columns, but as time went on and the guerilla warfare still raged, it was determined to perfect the system of block­ houses already in operation. 176 MATERIALS FOR A BLOCKHOUSE FINISHING A BLOCKHOUSE (NO . 27) Tofacep . 176 COLUMNS AND BLOCKHOUSES 177 Before the blockhouse lines were fairly started, CollllWIS. the columns used either to w@rkindependently of each other or several would combine, con­ ve,rging simultaneously on a common centre, with a view to inclosing the Boers within a given area. The Boers, however, soon learned to foresee and forestall these manceuvres, and before the circle closed they would slip through and retreat to their hiding-places, of which there were many.

This brings with it surplus items which, because of the reduction in the number of personnel, are put into storage until a suitable method of disposal is found. High on the priority list is ammunition of all types and nature. Small Arms Ammunition (SAA) accounts for a large percentage of any military organisation’s arsenal. It also contributes significantly to the stockpile of surplus, obsolete and shelf life expired ammunition. EOD Solutions Ltd in conjunction with CALDO engineering have developed the Transportable Ammunition Destruction System (TRADS) to destroy SAA in an environmentally responsible manner. There are two systems available, the TRADS 40 and the TRADS 20, both of which employ ceramic filtration backed up TRADS 20 utilises a furnace that allows small quantities of with a catalytic filter to ensure complete cleaning of the gases. ammunition to be destroyed and then emptied into a bin for Recent improvements have allowed the system to clean the further processing such as Free from Explosives Inspection.

  • Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, 1500 - 1605
    Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, 1500 - 1605 A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrew de la Garza Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: John F. Guilmartin, Advisor; Stephen Dale; Jennifer Siegel Copyright by Andrew de la Garza 2010 Abstract This doctoral dissertation, Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, examines the transformation of warfare in South Asia during the foundation and consolidation of the Mughal Empire. It emphasizes the practical specifics of how the Imperial army waged war and prepared for war—technology, tactics, operations, training and logistics. These are topics poorly covered in the existing Mughal historiography, which primarily addresses military affairs through their background and context— cultural, political and economic. I argue that events in India during this period in many ways paralleled the early stages of the ongoing “Military Revolution” in early modern Europe. The Mughals effectively combined the martial implements and practices of Europe, Central Asia and India into a model that was well suited for the unique demands and challenges of their setting. ii Dedication This document is dedicated to John Nira. iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Professor John F. Guilmartin and the other members of my committee, Professors Stephen Dale and Jennifer Siegel, for their invaluable advice and assistance. I am also grateful to the many other colleagues, both faculty and graduate students, who helped me in so many ways during this long, challenging process.

A. Pugachenkova) The arrival of the Arabs When the Arabs arrived in Khurasan and Transoxania they found few towns. The popula- tion lived mainly in the countryside, where there were scattered estates with the fortified kushks (castles) of major and minor dihqan¯ (land-owner)-suzerains and adjacent settle- ments. The ancient towns had either shrunk in size (Samarkand, Merv, Termez, Balkh) or been abandoned. The new towns were few in number, and small (Panjikent). Warfare was rife in the seventh and eighth centuries and, as a consequence, there was a general decline in building activity. This situation only changed in the ninth century, when the sphere of influence of the caliphate finally took in the countries of Central Asia and Islam became solidly established.
