Development of Modern Vulcanoid Species INSTITUTE FOR INSTITUTE FOR XENOARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES: THE XENOARCHAEOLOGIST Ó 03/11/2000 by David Klingman Star Trek; Star Trek: The Next Generation; Star Trek: Deep Space Nine; Star Trek: Voyager; STARFL EET all © Paramount, a VIACOM company. STARFLEET: The International Star Trek Fan Association, Inc., a not-for-profit corporation in the state of NC, is not connected with Paramount, VIACOM, or Star Trek: The Official Fan Club, and has been in existence si nce 1974. Neither STARFLEET nor The Institute for Xenoarchaeological Studies intends to infringe on the copyright of Paramount, VIACOM, or any of its Rapid Evolutionary Development through Environmental Stress: Development of Modern Vulcanoid Species Modern Vulcanoids consist of five known races [with their taxonomic classifications and variants described]: Debrune [Homo sapiens debrunnsis, Homo sapiens debrunnsu, Homo chthia dkhasi] Mintakan [Homo sapiens mintakis, Homo sapiens mintaksu] Reman [Homo sapiens remis, Homo sapiens remasu] Romulan [Homo sapiens rhihannsis, Homo sapiens rhaksi rihannsu , Homo cthia rkhasi] Vulcan [Homo sapiens vulcanis, Homo sapiens rkhasi thkannsu, Homo sapiens thkasi thkannsu, Homo chthia tkhasi] Classical theory has long held that all five species were and are direct descendants of an original proto-Vulcan species, which developed approximately 1 to 2 million years ago [classical theory has traditionally held that the development of a modern humanoid species occurs over a period of 2.0 to 4.0 million years, based on archaeological evidence for the development of modern Humans, Homo sapiens sapiens terrensis]. Modern theory and genetic and archaeological evidence has suggested, however, that the developmemt of modern Vulcans, Romulans, and related species is neither unimodal [i.e. has not occurred from one single parent species] nor set within traditional timeframes. Evidence is lacking for the development of modern Mintakans [due to limited studies as the Mintakans remain protected under Prime Directive Law] and modern Remans [due to long-standing political and military conflict which has prohibited access to Re man biological data]. Classical theory has held that all modern Vulcanoid species originated approximately 2000 years ago following social and political schism within the Vulcan population which led to the exodus of the Romulan progenitors [and from this stock, the development of modern Debrune and Reman species]. This theory, however, is unable to account for: - the significant morphological differences, particularly between Romulans and Vulcans and between Remans and other Vulcanoid Species - the emergence of the Mintakan species in parallel, whose social and technological development however does not parallel other Vulcanoid Species Archaeological data and modern genetic and biological analysis now has shed light on the theory that Vulcanoid Species can in fact be divided into three subgroups: - Debrune, Romulans, and Vulcans who developed from common Vulcan stock under significant environmental stress - Mintakans who developed independently and in parallel from common humanoid seed material under traditional environmental conditions condusive to modern and sentient humanoid development - Remans who developed in parallel from common humanoid seed material under significant environmental stress The study will focus primarily on Debrune, Romulans, and Vulcans, species for whomwe have the most biological data. We will, however, discuss at least briefly some detail of all the Vulcanoid species. MINTAKANS The Mintakans are a humanoid ‘Proto-Vulcan’ species whose genetic profile is derived from proto-humanoid seed material, which survived known cataclysms of 4 billion to 1 billion years ago. Mintakans, like other Vulcanoids, are known to have evolved from a felinoid proto-primate [more in this will be discussed later]. No specific single evolutionary ancestral line has been identified, however the species appears to follow classical humanoid trends, and so it is suspected that a single proto-primate ancestor will be dated at 2 to 4 million years. Modern Mintakan cultire appears to have stabilized 5000 years ago. Mintaka [or more appropriately Mintaka III], a Class M body, is the third planet in a system of seven planets orbiting a moderate-sized main sequence yellow sun similar to Sol. Modern Mintakans are technologically and socially less developed than other Vulcanoid species, possessing bronze-age technological development. The Mintakan species is known to be peaceful and rational, living in an agricultural society governed by moderate-sized matriarchal groups. The approximate population [as of the late 24th century] of Mintaka III is 8-11 million [a detailed census has not been performed]. REMANS Remans are the most enigmatic of the Vulcanoid Species [if in fact they can be called Vulcanoid]. Remus is a Class M planet rich in raw metals, particularly silicates and lithium deriviatives [spectral analysis has often led to an erroneous classification of K], the second of two planets in the Romulan Star System, which consists of the two planets [Romulus and Remus] which revolve around each other and orbit a binary star system of two main stage stars. Analysis of the Romulan Star System has in fact uncovered evidence that Remus is in fact a lunar body trapped by the gravitational pull of both Romulus and the star Romulus B. The effect is such that only one east-west hemisphere of Remus is exposed to the light of the Romulan binary system and as such one hemisphere of Remus remains in total darkness. There is no information concerning the development of the Reman species in terms of whether the species developed naturally on its own in total darkness before or after the arrival of the Romulans. Humanoids have typically developed in systems with main stage red or yellow suns, however it is not uncommon for humanoid species to develop in conditions of limited light [this has even occurred in systems whose parent stars are white or blue dwarfs or on rogue planets]; it is certain, however, that following the arrival of the Romulans to the star system some 2000 years ago, the Remans have continued to develop in the total darkess of the unlit hemisphere, being consigned to the dilithium mining facilities. The significant differences genetically and morphologically between Remans and Romulans suggest that the Remans did in fact develop [at least in a modern sense] in the unlit hemisphere, notable among these are: - the complete lack of skin pigmentation and zinc-based blood chemistry [as opposed to the copper-based blood chemistry of Vulcans and Romulans] - the known Reman aversion to light - the enlarged Reman ear and suspected ultrasonic hearing range of Remans It is now known how old the Reman progenitor is. More recent evidence suggests that the Remans are in fact a separate species line unrelated to either the Romulans or Vulcans. Their unique blood chemistry and body morphology was determined during the Dominion War to be highly adaptable to the low gravity low oxygen environments into which they were placed. Their high muscle: body fat ratio has historically made them ideal fodder for use by the technologically and intellectually superior Romulans during their many conflicts with neighboring species. Their classification as Vulcanoid species has therefore erroneously been attributed to their close physical, political and military proximity to the Romulans. DEBRUNE, ROMULANS, AND VULCANS Modern Debrune [Homo sapiens debrunnsis, Homo sapiens debrunnsu, Homo chthia dkhasi], Romulans [Homo sapiens rhihannsis, Homo sapiens rhaksi rihannsu , Homo cthia rkhasi], and Vulcans [Homo sapiens vulcanis, Homo sapiens rkhasi thkannsu, Homo sapiens thkasi thkannsu, Homo chthia tkhasi] are genetically and biologically closely related species that are known to have developed from a common ancestor on Vulcan. Vulcan, or T’Khasi, is one of two planets orbiting 40 Eridani, a triple star system located at galactic coordinates 19.5/60.0/-0.6 – 40 Eridani A is a red giant main sequence star, 40 Eridani B is a red dwarf, 40 Eridani C is a white dwarf. The two planets are gravitationally locked to 40 Eridani A. T’Khasi, the larger of the two planets, is a Class M body which is tectonically active, and which has a high surface gravity and temperature, lower oxygen content [approximately 20 percent lower than Earth], and the surface is which is littered with volcanic activity [approximately 12.7 times greater than earth]. T’Khut [also called Charis], the twin planet, [along with 40 Eridani A] is a massive object in the Vulcan sky - T’Khut is a Class H body which is 3.1 times more tectonically active than T’Khasi and whose nearly lifeless surface is a near molten sea of volcanoes and dust storms. The more tectonically active planet, Vulcan [T’Khasi] has gone through several major upheavals in the last 500,000 years (estimated to have occurred 130,000 years ago, 190,000 years ago, 260,000 years ago, and 410,000 years ago) - these major modern upheavals have left Vulcan both geologicaly scarred and have also nearly completely overturned the entire mantle (prior to that there was a period of approximately 200,000 years of geologic calm). Modern Vulcan is still tectonically very active - there are curently 17,104 active volcanoes, 306,071 active fault lines, and hundreds of thousands of thermal vents. Only 16 percent of the planet's surface has been stable for the last 5000 years and so there are very few major cities on the planet. The intense geologic activity has appeared to be a significant part of the rapid evolutionary change on Vulcan. T’Khasi is, in addition, a dry planet with less than 14 percent of its surface covered in stable water bodies, has a much lower oxygen content, and a much higher ultraviolet index (hence, modern Vulcans have developed higher lung capacity, altered pigment character, and the second eyelid that protects them from the harsh rays of the Vulcan solar character). On Tectonics Much of what we is discussed about the "Cthians" has involved a study of the tectonic activity of the planet Vulcan which has produced the unique physiological differences between Vulcans and Romulans.

Jashemski, Professor This study summarizes the existing information on the Roman domestic cult and illustrates it by a study of the arch­ eological evidence. The household shrines (lararia) of Pompeii are discussed in detail. Lararia from other parts of the Roman world are also studied. The domestic worship of the Lares, Vesta, and the Penates, is discussed and their evolution is described. The Lares, protective spirits of the household, were originally rural deities. However, the word Lares was used in many dif­ ferent connotations apart from domestic religion. Vesta was closely associated with the family hearth and was an ancient agrarian deity. The Penates, whose origins are largely un­ known, were probably the guardian spirits of the household storeroom. All of the above elements of Roman domestic worship are present in the lararia of Pompeii. The Genius was the living force of a man and was an important element in domestic religion.

  • 6 the God Liber and the Republican Notions of Libertas in the Late Roman Republic
    6 The god Liber and the Republican Notions of Libertas in the late Roman Republic I This essay focuses on the Roman god Liber and its relation with the notion of libertas in the first century BC. A very powerful, and prima facie convincing, explanation of this relation is, in the words of one of the most authoritative scholars in the field, that ‘by name and by nature, Liber is the god of freedom … Though many explanations were offered by ancient sources to account for his name, the simplest and most obvious was an ideological one: Liber a libertate. Political freedom, libertas, was the defining quality of the Roman Republic, achieved by the expulsion of Tarquin and under threat ever after,’ and which found its divinisation in Liber.1 a notable exception Raaflaub 2000 in Hansen birthday, 257. Il punto non e’ sbagliato, ma richiede revision. Non si tratat della political liberty di provocatio. However, when analysing the evidence at our disposal, it is possible to observe that Liber is conceived as enacting different forms of liberation: Liber frees the individual from worries and fears, frees the soul from the constraints of a mortal body, and frees the semen, both male and female, in sexual union.2 As Anthony Corbeill brilliantly put it, Liber was conceived as fulfilling the role of both the Realiser and the Liberator.3 Building on recent works that move away from a linear development of Liber in Rome as an Italic deity of subversive traits, gradually tamed in the third and second century BC through a process of Hellenisation, and considering

  • Mediaeval Holidays
    Mediaeval Holidays by Mark D F Shirley The copyright of this article remains with the original author. Articles may be copied or distributed freely for personal non-profit use, provided that the author is properly credited. Here is a list of holidays celebrated in mediaeval times. Most of these are from the Western Rite (a.k.a. the Roman Catholic Church). In addition to the Catholic ceremonies listed here, there would be a number of festivals celebrating the feast days of locally popular saints, as well as fairs, which would have been held in various locations throughout the year, particularly in summer. Vigils were held on the eves of the feasts of the Apostles except for Philip, James, and John I have also included some of the more popular Ancient Roman festivals, which may be of interest to magi. For example: a magus conducting a ritual spell designed to raise the shade of a dead Roman might only have luck during the Lemuria, the festivals in May when the Roman dead walked. A Merinita magus trained in a strict Roman tradition might use spells to increase the fertility of the land on the 15th February, the Lupercalia. At the option of the storyguide, spells might be more effective at these times. Birthdays would not be celebrated by mediaeval people. Instead, their saint day - that is, the feast day of the saint that they are named after - would have greater importance to them. Magi might well have a celebration on the day that they passed their Apprentice's Gauntlet. This list also includes the equinoxes and solstices, which would be of more importance to magi and astrologers than to commoners.
