This project is funded by the European Union November 2020 Culture in ruins The illegal trade in cultural property Case study: Algeria and Tunisia Julia Stanyard and Rim Dhaouadi Summary This case study forms part of a set of publications on the illegal trade in cultural property across North and West Africa, made up of a research paper and three case studies (on Mali, Nigeria and North Africa). This study is focused on Algeria and Tunisia, which share the same forms of material culture but very different antiquity markets. Attention is given to the development of online markets which have been identified as a key threat to this region’s heritage. Key findings • The large-scale extraction of cultural objects in both countries has its roots in the period of French colonial rule. • During the civil war in Algeria in the 1990s, trafficking in cultural heritage was allegedly linked to insurgent anti-government groups among others. • In Tunisia, the presidential family and the political elite reportedly dominated the country’s trade in archaeological objects and controlled the illegal markets. • The modern-day trade in North African cultural property is an interlinked regional criminal economy in which objects are smuggled between Tunisia and Algeria as well as internationally. • State officials and representatives of cultural institutions are implicated in the Algerian and Tunisian antiquities markets in a range of different capacities, both as passive facilitators and active participants. • There is evidence that some architects and real estate entrepreneurs are connected to CASE STUDY CASE trafficking networks. Introduction The region is a palimpsest of ancient material,7 much of which remains unexplored and unexcavated by Cultural heritage in North Africa has come under fire archaeologists. -
Potential Threats to Afro-Palearctic Migrato
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Unravelling the drastic range retraction of an emblematic songbird of North Africa: potential Received: 31 October 2016 Accepted: 16 March 2017 threats to Afro-Palearctic migratory Published: xx xx xxxx birds Rassim Khelifa1, Rabah Zebsa2, Hichem Amari3, Mohammed Khalil Mellal4, Soufyane Bensouilah3, Abdeldjalil Laouar5 & Hayat Mahdjoub1 Understanding how culture may influence biodiversity is fundamental to ensure effective conservation, especially when the practice is local but the implications are global. Despite that, little effort has been devoted to documenting cases of culturally-related biodiversity loss. Here, we investigate the cultural domestication of the European goldfinch (Carduelis carduelis) in western Maghreb (Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia) and the effects of long-term poaching of wild populations (1990–2016) on range distribution, socio-economic value, international trading and potential collateral damage on Afro- Palearctic migratory birds. On average, we found that the European goldfinch lost 56.7% of its distribution range in the region which led to the increase of its economic value and establishment of international trading network in western Maghreb. One goldfinch is currently worth nearly a third of the average monthly income in the region. There has been a major change in poaching method around 2010, where poachers started to use mist nets to capture the species. Nearly a third of the 16 bird species captured as by-catch of the European goldfinch poaching are migratory, of which one became regularly sold as cage-bird. These results suggest that Afro-Palearctic migratory birds could be under serious by-catch threat. Species overexploitation for wildlife trade is a major global threat to biodiversity, particularly birds1, 2. -

Nisan / The Levantine Review Volume 4 Number 2 (Winter 2015) Identity and Peoples in History Speculating on Ancient Mediterranean Mysteries Mordechai Nisan* We are familiar with a philo-Semitic disposition characterizing a number of communities, including Phoenicians/Lebanese, Kabyles/Berbers, and Ismailis/Druze, raising the question of a historical foundation binding them all together. The ethnic threads began in the Galilee and Mount Lebanon and later conceivably wound themselves back there in the persona of Al-Muwahiddun [Unitarian] Druze. While DNA testing is a fascinating methodology to verify the similarity or identity of a shared gene pool among ostensibly disparate peoples, we will primarily pursue our inquiry using conventional historical materials, without however—at the end—avoiding the clues offered by modern science. Our thesis seeks to substantiate an intuition, a reading of the contours of tales emanating from the eastern Mediterranean basin, the Levantine area, to Africa and Egypt, and returning to Israel and Lebanon. The story unfolds with ancient biblical tribes of Israel in the north of their country mixing with, or becoming Lebanese Phoenicians, travelling to North Africa—Tunisia, Algeria, and Libya in particular— assimilating among Kabyle Berbers, later fusing with Shi’a Ismailis in the Maghreb, who would then migrate to Egypt, and during the Fatimid period evolve as the Druze. The latter would later flee Egypt and return to Lebanon—the place where their (biological) ancestors had once dwelt. The original core group was composed of Hebrews/Jews, toward whom various communities evince affinity and identity today with the Jewish people and the state of Israel. -

The Epigraphy of the Tophet
ISSN 2239-5393 The Epigraphy of the Tophet Maria Giulia Amadasi Guzzo – José Ángel Zamora López (Sapienza Università di Roma – CSIC, Madrid) Abstract The present contribution reassesses the main aspects of the epigraphic sources found in the so-called tophet in order to demonstrate how they are significant and how they undermine the funerary interpretations of these precincts. The inscriptions decisively define the tophet as a place of worship, a sanctuary where sacrifices were made to specific deities in specific rites. The epigraphic evidence combined with literary and archaeological data show how these sacrifices consisted of infants and small animals (either as substitutes or interred together), sometimes commemorated by the inscriptions themselves. Keywords History of Religions, Child Sacrifice, Northwest Semitic Epigraphy, Mediterranean History, Phoenician & Punic World. 1. Introduction Our basic knowledge of the special type of Phoenician and Punic sanctuaries called tophet (a conventional term taken from the Hebrew Bible) seems to be based on wide variety of sources that can be combined to provide an overall interpretation. In fact, archaeological research now provides us with relatively substantial knowledge of the geographical and chronological distribution of these sacred sites and of their structure. Present in some central Mediterranean Phoenician settlements (including on Sardinia) from their foundation, or shortly after, they persist and multiply in North Africa at a later period, generally after the destruction of Carthage1. Archaeology, also, enables us to formulate a “material” definition of these places: they are always– essentially – open-air sites constantly located on the margins of towns, where pottery containers are buried in which the burnt remains of babies and/or baby Received: 11.09.2013. -

Settler Identity and Colonial Violence in French Algeria 1945-1962: An
Hitotsubashi Bulletin of Social Sciences. Vol.11., 2019. Settler Identity and Colonial Violence in French Algeria 1945-1962: An Exploration of the Relationship between Settler Identity Formation and the Justification of Violence in Settler Colonies Alexander Rotard Introduction The foundational works of Fanon(1) and Memmi(2) published in the late-1950s and early-1960s laid the groundwork for a postcolonial analysis of colonial violence in Algeria. Through a psychological examination of both coloniser and colonised, these theorists emphasised the inherent violence of the colonial structure, defining colonial society in terms of a constant Manichean conflict between the settler and the ‘native’ where settler profit is the direct consequence of the loss suffered by the indigenous population. Attempts to expand on their theories proved difficult until the opening of relevant archives in the early- 1990s. Since this new material became available, a new generation of work dealing with colonial violence in Algeria between the end of World War Two and the early 1960s has being growing steadily. However, as Joshua Cole indicates(3), this work has been less concerned with the question of colonial violence itself, instead being preoccupied largely with specific violent events or how particular institutions such as the police, army, magistrates and courts were involved in these events. Raphaëlle Branche’s 2001 investigation(4) into the army’s use of torture during the Algerian war, for example, was one of the first studies to make use of the newly opened archives. Significant attention has also been paid to the massacres at Sétif and Guelma in 1945; Annie Rey-Goldzeiguer and Jean-Louis Planche both publishing books on the subject in 2002 and 2006 respectively.(5) Moreover, police violence in Paris has been examined by Jim House and Neil Macmaster (2006)(6) and Jean-Paul Brunet (1999/2003).(7) With academic attention focused predominantly on specific violent events, the question of colonial violence itself has been understudied in recent years. -
