Pavel Duda Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Jan Zrzavý, CSc. Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, University of South Bohemia České Budějovice 2017 This thesis should be cited as: Duda, P. 2017: Human population history and evolution of culture: A phylogenetic approach, Ph.D. Thesis. University of South Bohemia, Faculty of Science, School of Doctoral Studies in Biological Sciences, České Budějovice, Czech Republic, 263 pp. Annotation This thesis uses phylogenetic and phylogenetic comparative methods to investigate human population history and evolution of cross-cultural variation. Such research requires a robust phylogenetic hypothesis of human populations as a framework. This thesis uses a supertree approach to infer a composite phylogeny of human populations based on published phylogenetic trees based on genetic and linguistic data. It assesses the stability of the inferred supertree topology and identifies individual populations whose phylogenetic position is particularly unstable. It assesses the congruence between genetic and linguistic data and tests hypothesis about language relationships and coevolution between genes and languages on a global scale. The supertree is used to reconstruct the origin and evolution of religious beliefs and behaviors using a global sample of hunter-gatherer populations and a set of phylogenetic comparative methods. This thesis also describes evolution of Central African pygmies, a group of human populations that represents an interesting case of morphological and cultural adaptation in human species, and reviews the history and current developments of phylogenetic (tree building) approaches to cross-cultural variation.

  • Architecture and the Politics of Identity in Indonesia a Study of the Cultural History of Aceh
    Architecture and the Politics of Identity in Indonesia A Study of the Cultural History of Aceh Izziah Hasan B.Arch. (Institute of Technology, Surabaya, Indonesia) M.Sc. (Drexel University, Philadelphia, USA) A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Adelaide School of Architecture, Landscape Architecture and Urban Design Centre for Asian and Middle Eastern Architecture (CAMEA) © Izziah Hasan September 2009 ABSTRACT While the history of the region of Aceh is intertwined with the history of Indonesia, contemporary literature provides only scanty information on the cultural and architectural heritage of Aceh. This study explores the cultural history of Aceh to reveal, on the one hand, its distinctive richness and the role it has played in shaping the contemporary history of Indonesia, and on the other, the influence of the socio- political developments in post-independence Indonesia on the shaping of Aceh’s cultural, urban and architectural identity. The study focuses on the discourse of architectural identity in post-independence Indonesia in general and the region of Aceh in particular. It examines the ways in which architecture and urban spaces are conceived and represented by Indonesian scholars and politicians, and the ways in which they are politicalised and aesthethicised to represent a uniform Indonesian identity, including that of Aceh. The study argues that such uniform and rigid representation is problematic, for it tends to obliterate differences and to reduce the richness and diversity of the Indonesian culture to a simplified pattern of predictable characteristics. It further argues that cultural identity evolves over time and is difficult to fix within rigid frames and definitions.

    STUDY TOUR TO PROTECTED AREA CO-MANAGEMENT SITES IN INDONESIA Task no.: USAID Contract no.: 388-C-00-03-00050-00 STUDY TOUR TO PROTECTED AREA CO-MANAGEMENT SITES IN INDONESIA Prepared for Nishorgo Support Project Prepared by Ishtiaq Uddin Ahmad Project Director, NSP May, 2007 Study Tour to Protected Area Co-Management Sites in Indonesia Context: Nishorgo Support Project is working to further protected area co- management in Bangladesh. (See more at www.nishorgo.org.) To the end of improving the approach being applied in Bangladesh, it is helpful to learn from similar experiences in other countries. Indonesia has achieved a number of interesting results in this area, most notably in Bunaken National Park, but also in a number of other protected areas. Objective: The objective of this study tour is for s select number of Government Officials to learn from the experiences of co-management and to adapt lessons learned to the Bangladesh case. A secondary objective is to make networking contacts at the CIFOR and ICRAF that may be useful for supporting regional research and knowledge sharing on the Bangladesh PAs. Specifically, the following specific objectives may be considered: • Proposal for the Forest Department to be a Focal Point for CIFOR in Bangladesh (at present, CIFOR lists NO Bangladeshi institutions as partners or focal points) • Proposal for CIFOR or ICRAF to support forest/habitat restoration or rehabilitation research and knowledge management. • Proposal that CIFOR consider undertaking research to learn from Bangladesh’s experience with forest governance under the Nishorgo co- management pilots. Participants: Participants include Forest Department staff and the Evnronment Team Leader of USAID/Bangladesh.
