Archaeological Open-Air Museum Is in Its Use There Are About 300 Archaeological Open-Air Museums in Europe Paardekooper the value of an Archaeological Open-Air Museum is in its use There are about 300 archaeological open-air museums in Europe. Their history goes from Romanticism up to modern-day tourism. With the majority dating to the past 30 years, they do more than simply present (re)constructed outdoor sceneries based on archaeology. They have an important role as education facilities and many The Value of an Archaeological showcase archaeology in a variety of ways. Compared to other museum categories, archaeological open-air museums boast a wide variety of manifestations. Open-Air Museum is in its Use This research assesses the value of archaeological open-air museums, their manage- ment and their visitors, and is the first to do so in such breadth and detail. After a literature study and general data collection among 199 of such museums in Europe, eight archaeological open-air museums from different countries were selected as case studies. They included museums in a very varied state with different balances between public versus private funding levels on the one hand, and on the other the proportion of private individuals to educational groups among their visitors. The issue of ‘quality’ was investigated from different perspectives. The quality as assessed by the museum management was recorded in a management survey; the quality as experienced by their visitors was also recorded using a survey. In addi- tion on-site observations were recorded. Management and visitors have different perspectives leading to different priorities and appreciation levels. The studies conclude with recommendations, ideas and strategies which are appli- cable not just to the eight archaeological open-air museums under study, but to any the value of an such museum in general. The recommendations are divided into the six categories of management, staff, collections, marketing, interpretation and the visitors. They are designed to be informative statements of use to managers across the sector.

  • Torshavn, Faroe Islands
    Day 24 Aug. 17 – Torshavn, Faroe Islands – VAT Refund – Medical Evacuation Cost The day started with a calm sea, a light breeze, temperature of 55˚F and intermittent sun through broken clouds. The Maasdam was cruising through a series of small islands that are part of the Faroe Island chain. Closer to the harbor were these wind turbines, on the right, which seem to be located in most of the port cities we visit. We got these photos of the city of Torshavn as the Maasdam was being docked. From this distance the housing development up on the hill looked like a typical suburban subdivision scene in the US. The housing down closer to the port looked more like old European style houses with winding streets as shown below About 7:30am the Maasdam was docked at the Cruise Pier in the harbor at Torshavn. The map on the right shows where Torshavn is located in the Faroe Islands. Torshavn is the capital city of the Faroe Islands, Denmark, and is located on the southeastern end of Strymoy Island. In the early 9 th century, the first parliament, called the Althing, was set up. This government was dissolved when the Faroe Islands were incorporated into Norway in 1035, and then reformed in 1380 when Norway was absorbed into Denmark. The town of Torshavn has served as the central place for economic activity, such as fishing, transport and trade, in the Faroe Islands over the years. Touring Torshavn: By 9am we were ready to leave the ship and take a walking tour around Torshavn.

INTRODUCTION An OBU Honors Special Studies Grant, matched by a donation from a private source, enabled me to spend five weeks during the summer of 1981 studying British archaeology, particularly that of the Iron Age, at Christ College, Cam­ bridge. After one week of extensive lectures at the college and one week of touring major archaeological sites of the area, five other American students and I spent two and one­ half weeks at the Claydon Pike excavation near Fairford, Gloucestershire. During our stay at the dig the excavation director, Dr. David Miles, and the assistant director~ - Simon Palmer, both of Oxford University and the Oxfordshire Archaeological Unit, delivered several lectures on the Iron A~e, Claydon Pike, and other excavations in the area that dated from the same period.

Validation of such models is difficult, due to present limitations in detecting ENPs in the environment. Here we report on progress towards validation of the spatially resolved hydrological ENP fate model NanoDUFLOW, by comparing measured and modeled concentrations of < 450 nm metal-based particles in a river. Concentrations measured with Asymmetric Flow-Field-Flow Fractionation (AF4) coupled to ICP-MS, clearly reflected the hydrodynamics of the river and showed satisfactory to good agreement with modeled concentration profiles.

    Reports on Completed Research for 2014 “Supporting worldwide research in all branches of Anthropology” REPORTS ON COMPLETED RESEARCH The following research projects, supported by Foundation grants, were reported as complete during 2014. The reports are listed by subdiscipline, then geographic area (where applicable) and in alphabetical order. A Bibliography of Publications resulting from Foundation-supported research (reported over the same period) follows, along with an Index of Grantees Reporting Completed Research. ARCHAEOLOGY Africa: DR. JAMIE LYNN CLARK, University of Alaska, Fairbanks, Alaska, received a grant in April 2013 to aid research on “The Sibudu Fauna: Implications for Understanding Behavioral Variability in the Southern African Middle Stone Age.” This project sought to gain a deeper understanding of human behavioral variability during the Middle Stone Age through the analysis of the Still Bay (SB; ~71,000 ya) and pre-SB (>72,000 ya) fauna from Sibudu Cave. In addition to characterizing variation in human hunting behavior within and between the two periods, the project had two larger goals. First, to explore whether the data were consistent with hypotheses linking the appearance of the SB to environmental change. No significant changes in the relative frequency of open vs. closed dwelling species were identified, with species preferring closed habitats predominant throughout. This suggests that at Sibudu, the onset of the SB was not correlated with climate change. Secondly, data collected during this project will be combined with lithic and faunal data from later deposits at Sibudu in order to explore the relationship between subsistence and technological change spanning from the pre-SB through the post-Howiesons Poort MSA (~58,000 ya).

January 2018 Thessaloniki - Greece Abstract This dissertation was written as part of the MA in Black Sea and Eastern Mediterranean Studies at the International Hellenic University. The aim of this dissertation is to collect as much information as possible on agricultural practices in Macedonia from prehistory to Roman times and examine them within their social and cultural context. Chapter 1 will offer a general introduction to the aims and methodology of this thesis. This chapter will also provide information on the geography, climate and natural resources of ancient Macedonia from prehistoric times. We will them continue with a concise social and cultural history of Macedonia from prehistory to the Roman conquest. This is important in order to achieve a good understanding of all these social and cultural processes that are directly or indirectly related with the exploitation of land and agriculture in Macedonia through time. In chapter 2, we are going to look briefly into the origins of agriculture in Macedonia and then explore the most important types of agricultural products (i.e.
