  • New Perspectives of Studies in the Przeworsk Culture in the Lublin Region
    ACTA ARCHAEOLOGICA CARPATHICA VOL. LV (2020): 111–136 PL ISSN 0001-5229 DOI 10.4467/00015229AAC.20.006.13511 Marta stasiaK-Cyran New perspectives of studies in the Przeworsk culture in the Lublin region – on the example of the results of interdisciplinary studies of site 5 in Nieszawa Kolonia, Opole Lubelskie district, Lublin voivodship Abstract: The last twenty years have brought discoveries which provide a large number of sources concerning the archaeology of the Roman Period in the Lublin region. The interdisciplinary studies related to site 5 in Nieszawa Kolonia, Opole Lubelskie district, Lublin region, Poland, have generated a substantial part of these new sources. The multi-aspectual analysis of archaeological and biological sources allowed us to characterize of the economy of the dwellers of the settlement which was constituted by agriculture, animal husbandry and fishing. The relative chronology of the settlement was established, and the first stage of its functioning was determined as belonging to phase B2, until phase C1a inclusive. The second stage of the utilisation of the settlement is dated to phase C3-D1. Three instances of radiocarbon dating confirm the chronological frame established by relative dating. The presented analysis of selected archaeological sources from site 5 in Nieszawa Kolonia, especially of ceramic material, seems to confirm the possibility that in the early Roman period, in the Lublin region, especially in its western part, infiltration of Dacian cultural elements into the Przeworsk environment took place. It is undeniable that the chronology of the settlement in Nieszawa Kolonia extends beyond the established time frame assumed for the functioning of the Przeworsk culture in the Lublin region.

  • High Prevalence of Berardinelli-Seip Congenital Lipodystrophy in Rio Grande Do Norte State, Northeast Brazil
    de Azevedo Medeiros et al. Diabetol Metab Syndr (2017) 9:80 DOI 10.1186/s13098-017-0280-7 Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome RESEARCH Open Access High prevalence of Berardinelli‑Seip Congenital Lipodystrophy in Rio Grande do Norte State, Northeast Brazil Lázaro Batista de Azevedo Medeiros1,2, Verônica Kristina Cândido Dantas1, Aquiles Sales Craveiro Sarmento2, Lucymara Fassarella Agnez‑Lima2, Adriana Lúcia Meireles3, Thaiza Teixeira Xavier Nobre1, Josivan Gomes de Lima4 and Julliane Tamara Araújo de Melo Campos1,2* Abstract Background: Berardinelli-Seip Congenital Lipodystrophy (BSCL) is a rare disease characterized by the almost com‑ plete absence of adipose tissue. Although a large number of BSCL cases was previously identifed in Rio Grande do Norte (RN), a state in Northeast Brazil, its prevalence in RN regions and municipalities remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to better characterize the prevalence of BSCL in RN. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted using secondary data obtained from the Association of Parents and People with BSCL of RN to determine its prevalence. The patients’ socio-demographic characteristics and geolocaliza‑ tion were analyzed. Results: We estimated a total of 103 BSCL cases in RN, resulting in a prevalence of 3.23 per 100,000 people. The Cen‑ tral Potiguar mesoregion, Seridó territory, Carnaúba dos Dantas and Timbaúba dos Batistas municipalities had a much higher prevalence of BSCL, with 20.56, 20.66, 498.05 and 217.85 per 100,000 people, respectively. Conclusions: Together, our results showed that BSCL is highly prevalent in RN and confrmed that our state has one of the highest prevalences of this lipodystrophy worldwide.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Let me first thank, on behalf of brazilian Ministry of National Integration, the invitation to participate in this Conference, where I come with great satisfaction, not only because of its theme, but also for the opportunity it is to enhance the remarkable cooperation we have been building with European Union, towards the exchange of experiences, focused on brazilian and european development policies. Promptly going to the main point of this session, I start tackling the dimension of the inequalities in my country, through a comparision between some relevant indicators presented by the geographic Brazilian’s micro-regions. This first picture shows us the population density of Brazil. This distribution reveals that the majority of our population is established near the coastline areas, state capitals or big metropolis. The existence of urban centers dispersed in the country, is also showed, for example Brasília, Manaus and Goiânia.

  • The Early Medieval Settlements at the Borderland Between Poland and Rus': the Stronghold in Busówno in Recent Archaeological Exploration
    SPRAWOZDANIA ARCHEOLOGICZNE 60,2008 PL ISSN 0081-3834 Andrzej Buko (Warszawa), Tomasz Dzieńkowski (Chełm) THE EARLY MEDIEVAL SETTLEMENTS AT THE BORDERLAND BETWEEN POLAND AND RUS': THE STRONGHOLD IN BUSÓWNO IN RECENT ARCHAEOLOGICAL EXPLORATION INTRODUCTION Remains of a fortified town in Busówno are situated in the Wierzbica commune, dis- trict of Chełm, Lublin province; geographically, in the north-western section of the Chełm Hills mesoregion, part of the Volhynian Polesie in the division proposed by Jerzy Kond- racki (Kondracki 2000, 294-295). The region is characterized by chalky elevations sur- rounded by depressions containing accumulative material (Dobrowolski 2006). The re- mains lie on a small chalky prominence in the edge of the extensive valley of the Świnka river (a right-bank tributary of the Wieprz) (Fig. 1). Near the site, a distinct depression marks the course of an old channel of the Świnka. Local deposits consist of sands, silts, and mineral, organic and biogenic aggradate mud (peat) at the surface, with chalky rock lo- cated below. The absolute altitude of the area ranges from 180-182 m above sea level in the Świnka valley to 220 m above sea level at the border of the valley and on the elevation. The stronghold, composed of several (two or three) ramparts, take up approx. 7 hec- tares (Fig. 2). The ramparts have survived fragmentarily as small earthen embankments, 0.3 m-0.8 m high, accompanied by wide and not very deep ditches. The inner area within the interior rampart cover approx. 3.2 hectares. In their south-western section, there is a mound, 40 x 50 m.

In the twentieth element of the Polish freshwater ichthyofauna and its century, only three or four sites were identified in this part of the biodiversity since it has retained its historical range of country. Today, there is only one site in the voivodeship situated occurrence until today (Kusznierz et al. 2005). in the vicinity of Wolsztyn, which is classified as highly threatened and is subject to protection under the European The aim of the present work was to summarize Ecological Natura 2000 Network as PLH300028 “Bar³o¿nia published and unpublished scientific data on the Wolsztyñska”.

  • New Measure of Economic Development Based on the Four-Colour Theorem
    entropy Article New Measure of Economic Development Based on the Four-Colour Theorem Aleksander Jakimowicz 1,* and Daniel Rzeczkowski 2 1 Department of World Economy, Institute of Economics, Polish Academy of Sciences, Palace of Culture and Science, 1 Defilad Sq., 00-901 Warsaw, Poland 2 Department of Market and Consumption, Faculty of Economic Sciences, University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, 1/327 Cieszy´nskiSq., 10-720 Olsztyn, Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The location quotient is one of the basic quantitative tools for identifying the regional poles and the turnpikes of economic growth in spatial economy. The disadvantage of this traditional measure is the limited scope of economic information contained in it. The new measure of economic development proposed in the article encompasses a complex spectrum of phenomena in one number, as it takes into account the influence of the public administration sector, as well as top technology in the form of ICT and its practical business models. It also takes into account the digital prosumption and the platforms for participation. The participation platforms in the public administration sector are the websites of municipal public administration offices. A cluster analysis was used to distinguish four quality classes of these websites. These classes were assigned four different colours, which were then used to draw up a map of the selected province. Each municipality is marked with a colour that corresponds to the quality class of the website of the state administration office operating on its territory. The colour system resulting from the four-colour theorem and the corresponding dual graph play the role of a reference system in relation to each empirical colour distribution and another dual graph related to it.
