Nadie discutía su veracidad, ni tampoco existía mayor interés en un conocimiento más profundo del tema. Hay que esperar al siglo XVIII, para que los viajes de europeos a esos países de oriente, la contemplación de las monumentales ruinas aún visibles y el des- cubrimiento fortuito de inscripciones y objetos despertara interés en nuestro mundo occidental.

ABSTRACT: The course of Technology is taught in 7th, 8th, and 9th grade. In the 9th grade the study program is structured in a way that offers the chance to conduct experiential research with the final target being the understanding by the students of the methods that are used during research by the students. The aim of this work was to investigate the dietary habits of teenagers between the age of 13 and 15 as well as their perception and general view regarding nutrition. An additional target of the research was the introduction of the students to the procedure of experiential research. The research included 920 male and female high school students from the northern part of Greece (Macedonia, Thrace). The survey questionnaire was constructed by the students during the course of Technology and consisted of 2 parts. The first part included 6 questions regarding the demographic characteristics and the second part included 18 questions regarding the eating habits of the students. The statistical analysis of the data included elements of descriptive statistics. The interviews were analyzed by the use of the qualitative research method of data analysis.

  • Transfer of Egyptian Phonological Features Onto Greek in Graeco-Roman Egypt
    Department of World Cultures Greek Language and Literature University of Helsinki Outcome of long-term language contact Transfer of Egyptian phonological features onto Greek in Graeco-Roman Egypt Sonja Dahlgren ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be presented, with the permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki, for public examination in lecture room 6 (Metsätalo building), on 3 June 2017, at 12 noon. Helsinki 2017 ISBN 978-951-51-3217-8 (pbk.) ISBN 978-951-51-3218-5 (PDF) Helsinki University Printing House Helsinki 2017 Cover image: OGN I: 42, The Cairo Egyptian Museum (pictures taken from the originals by Dr. Angiolo Menchetti). Abstract In this work I have studied the language contact situation between Egyptian and Greek in Roman period Egypt. I have analysed the language use of a corpus written by Egyptian scribe apprentices, OGN I, rich with nonstandard variation due to the imperfect Greek learning of the young scribes. I concentrated on finding Egyptian phonological influence from the misspellings of the vowels that displayed variation atypical for native language writers. Among the nonstandard features were e.g. underdifferentiation of foreign phonemes, the reduction of word-final vowels, allophonic variation that matched Coptic prosodic rules, and coarticulation of consonants on vowels. All of these linguistic characteristics can be found also in the near-phonetic spellings of Greek loanwords in Coptic, which I used as parallel reference material. Studying the similarly phonetically-based orthographic variants in Arabic loanwords in Coptic from a later period gave me information on Coptic vowel qualities, by which I could confirm that most of the nonstandard vowel variation in the texts of OGN I was not related to Greek internal phonological development but Egyptian influence.
