Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract Disciplines such as palaeoanthropology, archaeology, anthropology, and history have been instrumental in formulating hypotheses relating to human history. Genetics has developed into a powerful tool for human population analysis hence it can complement information derived from other disciplines. To date, however, such studies of genetic history have predominantly focussed on prehistoric events. The aim of this thesis was to address several questions formulated from written sources and oral tradition relating to the recent history of populations in the British Isles and Africa. Y-chromosome markers and sequence information from the mitochondrial genome were employed. The male gene pool of the British Isles was investigated using a thorough sampling strategy, with respect to the impact of historical invaders, revealing geographic structuring within the Isles as a result of differential contact with these invaders. With these data for Britain available, the fidelity of (British) surname inheritance was investigated using the Y-chromosome, revealing evidence for the random and non-random adoption of surnames. The scope in Britain was narrowed to the small, but assumed diverse, metropolitan district of Greater London, to assess levels of Y-chromosome and mitochondrial DNA diversity in relation to the rest of Britain and Europe. Finally, the maternal history of the Lemba from Africa was investigated; oral tradition and Y-chromosome evidence suggests a Semitic component. The evidence presented here precludes a Jewish maternal heritage, but a Middle Eastern component is possible. This thesis has shown that genetic information can be informative for elucidating the recent history of these populations, therefore confirming the value of including recent events within the scope of genetic history. 2 Table of Contents Title Page................................................................................................... 1 A bstract ...................................................................................................... 2 Table of Contents ...................................................................................... 3 List of Tables ............................................................................................. 7 List of Figures ............................................................................................ 11 Publications Arising from this Thesis ................................................... 13 Declaration ................................................................................................. 14 Acknowledgements ................................................................................... 15 Chapter 1.

    Self-Determination for the Basque People

    THE HUMAN RIGHT TO SELF DETERMINATION AND THE LONG WALK OF THE BASQUE COUNTRY TO A DEMOCRATIC SCENARIO ―Law is a living deed, not a brilliant honors list of past writers whose work of course compels respect but who cannot, except for a few great minds, be thought to have had such a vision of the future that they could always see beyond their own times‖. Judge Ammoun ―Separate Opinion‖ Advisory Opinion of the ICJ Jon Namibia, 1971 Introduction Let me start with some considerations. The case of the right to self determination is the case of human rights and history shows us that human rights are the cause of the oppressed, the cause of the colonized, the subalterns, and the cause of those on the other side of the borderline. Human rights have always been opposed by those in power, by the states of the capitalist world system. And so the recognized human rights are not but the consequences of long term struggles for non-recognized rights. And same pass with the right to self determination. Those who today consider this right only to be applied to colonies or occupied territories, are the same who opposed to the struggles for national liberation. Those who consider right now the right to self determination recognized in art 1 of the UN International Covenants on Civil and Political rights and Social, Cultural and Ecomic Rights are the same who opposed in the UN to the stablishment of art.1 and those who right now try to limit the right of indigenous peoples to self determination.

Aiken worked quietly and competently in the Columbia district mainly at coastal forts and on the steamer Beaver as a blacksmith until March 1, 1849 at which point he went to California, most certainly to participate in the Gold Rush. He appears to have returned to settle in the Willamette Valley and had an association with the HBC until 1852. Aiken's family life or subsequent activities have not been traced.

    Shetlanders Speak – Orcadians Sing by Klaske Van Leyden

    4 Shetlanders speak – Orcadians sing by Klaske van Leyden finally abandoned in favour of Lowland Scots in the course of the 18th century. Even though Norn is now an extinct language, it still lives on in the many Norn words and idioms which are one of the most well- known features of the local dialects. Most islanders are conscious of these Norn remnants in dialect vocabulary, which have also been documented in the dictionaries of Jakob Jakobsen, Hugh Marwick and, more recently, John Graham. Orcadians and Shetlanders are also well aware of the pronunciation features which make these accents not only unique in the English speaking world, but also quite different from each other. Yet, up till now, there has been very meagre mention of the crucial dissimilarities between the two dialects in the scholarly literature. Over the past five years, I have been investigating the differences between Orkney and Shetland pronunciation, for my PhD thesis at the University of Leiden in the Netherlands. In this article, I shall discuss some of my most important findings so far. Vowel and consonant duration When the famous phonetician Professor J.C.

  • Fishing for Meaning: Lived Space and Early Neolithic of Orkney Introduction

    Fishing for Meaning: Lived Space and Early Neolithic of Orkney Introduction

    Fishing for Meaning: Lived Space and early Neolithic of Orkney Introduction “Being at the junction of the North Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean … the sea is a constant, unforgettable presence in the islands.” David Fraser (1983, 224) The ‘unforgettable presence’ of the sea is notable by its absence in many accounts of the Neolithic of coastal and island areas within the British Isles. The story as most frequently told is one of terrestrial action; of monumental construction, polished stone technology, pottery and domesticates. When the sea does emerge it is often of a homogenous nature, a resource to be exploited with little significance. This treatment is diametrically opposed to the time spent in deriving meaning from action within the terrestrial landscapes of the Neolithic, within which all manner of subtle nuances and potential references are considered. Yet to people living in coastal areas and small island groups, perceptions of the sea are often anything but homogenous. As such, a myriad of skills, relationships and experiences associated with maritime practice have been marginalised in our reconstructions. This poses a problem when we come to contextualise any action within the Neolithic, maritime or terrestrial, such as monument construction because we have little idea of how these different practices articulate. This paper considers how an integration of maritime and terrestrial data within a ‘lived-space’ perspective can change our understandings. An approach that challenges stereotypes and explores relationships through the temporal and spatial nature of action is advocated. Attention will first be given to identifying archaeological stereotypes, before outlining what a lived-space perspective entails, and following its application to early Neolithic material from the Knap of Howar on Papa Westray in Orkney.

Richard Scott, Ph.D., Advisor Gary Haynes, Ph.D., Committee Member David Wilson, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School August, 2011 i Abstract The origins and uniqueness of the Basque have long puzzled anthropologists and other scholars of human variation. Straddling the border between France and Spain, Basque country is home to a people genetically, linguistically and culturally distinct from neighboring populations. The craniometrics of a burial population from a Basque city were subjected to cluster analysis to identify the pattern of relationships between Spanish Basques and other populations of the Iberian Peninsula, Europe, and the world. Another method of affinity assessment -- discriminant function analysis – was employed to classify each individual cranium into one population from among a wide array of groups in a worldwide craniometric database. In concert with genetic and linguistic studies, craniometric analyses find Basques are distinct among Iberian and European populations, with admixture increasing in the modern era.
