It is the step in grain preparation after harvesting and before winnowing, which separates the loosened chaff from the grain. Threshing does not remove the bran from the grain. Threshing may be done by beating the grain using a flail on a threshing floor. Another traditional method of threshing is to make donkeys or An animal powered thresher oxen walk in circles on the grain on a hard surface. A modern version of this in some areas is to spread the grain on the surface of a country road so the grain may be threshed by the wheels of passing vehicles. However, in developed areas it is now mostly done by machine, usually by a combine harvester, which harvests, threshes, and winnows the grain while it is still in the field. The cereal may be stored in a threshing barn. A Threshing Bee is a festival held in communities to commemorate this process. The event is often held over multiple days and includes flea markets, activity booths, hog wrestling and dances.

  • THRESHING FLOORS AS SACRED SPACES in the HEBREW BIBLE by Jaime L. Waters a Dissertation Submitted to the Johns Hopkins Universit
    THRESHING FLOORS AS SACRED SPACES IN THE HEBREW BIBLE by Jaime L. Waters A dissertation submitted to The Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland August 2013 © 2013 Jaime L. Waters All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Vital to an agrarian community’s survival, threshing floors are agricultural spaces where crops are threshed and winnowed. As an agrarian society, ancient Israel used threshing floors to perform these necessary activities of food processing, but the Hebrew Bible includes very few references to these actions happening on threshing floors. Instead, several cultic activities including mourning rites, divination rituals, cultic processions, and sacrifices occur on these agricultural spaces. Moreover, the Solomonic temple was built on a threshing floor. Though seemingly ordinary agricultural spaces, the Hebrew Bible situates a variety of extraordinary cultic activities on these locations. In examining references to threshing floors in the Hebrew Bible, this dissertation will show that these agricultural spaces are also sacred spaces connected to Yahweh. Three chapters will explore different aspects of this connection. Divine control of threshing floors will be demonstrated as Yahweh exhibits power to curse, bless, and save threshing floors from foreign attacks. Accessibility and divine manifestation of Yahweh will be demonstrated in passages that narrate cultic activities on threshing floors. Cultic laws will reveal the links between threshing floors, divine offerings and blessings. One chapter will also address the sociological features of threshing floors with particular attention given to the social actors involved in cultic activities and temple construction. By studying references to threshing floors as a collection, a research project that has not been done previously, the close relationship between threshing floors and the divine will be visible, and a more nuanced understanding of these spaces will be achieved.

  • Spanish Agriculture: the Long Siesta, 1765-1965 Is the First Major Study in English of Spanish Agrarian History
    Spanish agriculture: the long Siesta, 1765-1965 is the first major study in English of Spanish agrarian history. James Simpson examines how traditional agriculture responded to population growth and the inte­ gration of commodity markets, emphasising both Spain's regional vari­ ations and its context in Europe. Simpson argues that decisive changes in farming techniques only occurred at the Start of this century~ leading n:!~i~~.2~J>.r:~dll_c~Vityand the start or,~~fl:I!lll~~og!;!LP~J.?l': ment ~_S)11!~!:£llJ>.!.~ULm_L~9l0~~d 1940~~_~n1~"E~"suming in the .• ~ 19508.

Indeed, farmerS were" quick to change when they had market opportunities (as was the case with olive oil, oranges and rice). By contrast, change was slower in those areas such as cereals where traditional technologies remained profitable. Simpson concludes that there were strict limits on absorbing labour in Spain's dry lands, and labour was retained in agriculture because of govern­ ment policies.

  • The Losses in the Rice Harvest Process: a Review
    sustainability Review The Losses in the Rice Harvest Process: A Review Xue Qu 1,*, Daizo Kojima 1, Laping Wu 2 and Mitsuyoshi Ando 1 1 Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo 113-8657, Japan; [email protected] (D.K.); [email protected] (M.A.) 2 College of Economics and Management, China Agricultural University, 17 Qinghua East Road, Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: We review existing studies on rice harvest loss from the aspects of estimation methods, magnitudes, causes, effects, and interventions. The harvest losses examined occurred from the field reaping to storage processes, including threshing, winnowing, and field transportation. We find that existing studies on rice harvest losses have focused on quantitative losses in Asia and Africa. Lack of knowledge, inadequate harvesting techniques, poor infrastructure, and inefficient harvest management practices are considered critical contributors to the losses. The magnitudes and causes of rice harvest losses are now better understood than interventions, which have simply been presented but lack an assessment of the effects and a cost–benefit analysis. Interestingly, reduction in harvest losses may threaten some farmers’ profits, such as rural women who make their living from post-production manual operations. Considering the current status of the literature, future researchers should examine how to balance social and individual welfare since farmers are key stakeholders in intervention implementation. A good understanding of the existing researches can help clarify future efforts for loss reduction, thereby reducing the burden of increasing agricultural production and promoting sustainable development of resources and the environment.

  • Chasing the Traces of Diffusion of Agriculture During the Early Neolithic in the Western Mediterranean Coast
    CHASING THE TRACES OF DIFFUSION OF AGRICULTURE DURING THE EARLY NEOLITHIC IN THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN COAST Ferran Antolín*, Ramon Buxó** Abstract: The knowledge on the diffusion of agriculture during the Early Neolithic in the Western Mediterranean is still sparse. This paper reviews the available information and presents some recent results that bring out the potential of ar - chaeobotanical materials on this topic. Crop exchange and diffusion in the western Mediterranean basin is observed but differences between the so-called Impressed ware and the Cardial ware cultures are still difficult to state. Possible exchanges between the LBK-II and Cardial ware cultures are evaluated. Agricultural practices are still hard to compare on a site-to- site basis but some regional patterns are presented. Keywords: prehistoric agriculture, process of neolithisation, diffusion of agriculture, archaeobotany, Western Mediterranean. Resumen: El conocimiento del proceso de difusión de la agricultura en el neolítico antiguo del Mediterráneo occidental es toda - vía escaso. En este trabajo se revisa la información disponible y se presentan los nuevos resultados que muestran el potencial del material arqueobotánico en este tema. El intercambio de cultivos y su difusión en el oeste del Mediterráneo es constatado pero las diferencias entre las llamadas cultura Impresa y la cultura Cardial son todavía difíciles de demostrar. Posibles intercambios entre el LBK-II y la cultura cardial son evaluados.

Se usó el diseño genético propuesto por Hallauer y Miranda. En bajo y alto fósforo se encontraron diferencias altamente significativas entre los genotipos, i.e. cruzamientos (C), padres (P) y PvsC. En alto fósforo, PvsC explicaron 58% de la suma de cuadrados de los genotipos y los cruzamientos 66% en bajo fósforo. En bajo fósforo se encontraron diferencias altamente significativas para el contraste de tolerantes (T) vs susceptibles (S). Los cruzamientos de padres TxT, SxS y TxS fueron estadísticamente diferentes, lo que sugirió que el carácter es poligénico. HCG y HCE fueron altamente significativas en los dos ambientes y HCE fue tres veces más grande, lo que sugirió que en la tolerancia a bajo fósforo son más importantes los efectos genéticos no aditivos.

    The Euskaro- Caucasian Hypothesis Current model (2017) A proposed genetic relationship between Basque (Vasconic) and the North Caucasian John D. Bengtson language family. Association for the Study of Language in Prehistory | Evolution of Human Language Project | February 2017 The Euskaro-Caucasian Hypothesis: Current model I. History of the hypothesis II.

Anthropological scenario of Euskaro-Caucasian: linguistics, archaeology, genetics VIII. References Note: This presentation is a highly abridged summary of the evidence for this hypothesis. For more information please contact the author. I.A. The Euskaro-Caucasian hypothesis: from general to specific: The embryo of Euskaro-Caucasian (Basque as a relative of languages in the Caucasus region) was nurtured by several eminent scholars in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, including Hugo Schuchardt (1842-1927), Heinrich Winkler (1848–1930), Nikolay Yakovlevich Marr (1865-1934), Alfredo Trombetti (1866-1929), Christianus Cornelius Schuchardt Uhlenbeck (1866-1951), Georges Dumézil (1898-1986), René Lafon (1899-1974) and Karl Bouda (1901-1979). At the earlier stages, due to the primitive state of Caucasian linguistics, it was unclear whether the Caucasian part of the Euskaro-Caucasian family included all native Caucasian languages, South Caucasian (= Kartvelian) as well as North Caucasian (= Abkhazo- Adyghean + Nakh-Daghestanian), or only some of them. Thus, until about three decades ago, many Euskaro-Caucasian lexical and grammatical comparisons used data from Kartvelian as well as North Caucasian languages.

La principal aportación de este trabajo es la sistematización del proceso de elaboración de piedras de trillo en cuarcitas, y la caracterización geológica y arqueológica de estos conjuntos líticos en el territorio de Segovia. PALABRAS CLAVE: Cuarcita. Paleolítico inferior. Talla lítica. Trillo. Cantalejo. Segovia. ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the problem of the many archaeological assemblages found in the Castilian Meseta and created by the recent and contemporary activity of threshing cereals using wooden boards with stone tools (‘trillero’), which can be misinterpreted as of Palaeolithic age. The process of threshing using quartzite stones is systematically described, as well as the knapping technology used to make the cutting tools and the geological and archaeological formation of the assemblages. KEY WORDS: Quartzite. Lower Palaeolithic. Lithic technology. Threshing board. Cantalejo. Segovia. SUMARIO 1. Introducción. 2. Ámbito geográfico y geológico. 3. El trillo: origen y uso. 4.
