We investigated the Chagyrskaya Cave – a key-site of the Sibirya- chikha Middle Paleolithic variant. The cave is known for a large number of Neanderthal remains associated with the Sibirya- chikha techno-complex, which includes assemblages of both lithic artifacts and bone tools. According to our results, a Neanderthal population has used the cave over a few millennia. They hunted juvenile, semi-adult and female bisons in the direct vicinity of the site. -

Some points for refl ection are suggested on the research methodology adopted by Paolo Orsi in an archaeological setting and in particular in the investigation of ground surfaces, beginning with the years of his formation in Trentino. Th is method, wherever the scholar happened to be, led him to search the ground meticulously, despite any roughness of terrain, climatic hardships or dangers posed by unknown places. As proof of this some unpublished documents from the archives of the Sergio Poggianella Foundation and the Rovereto Civic Museum Foundation are presented. Key words: Paolo Orsi - Survey - Trentino - Sicily - Calabria.

Setting the Record Straight: Toward a Systematic Chronological Understanding of the Middle to Upper Paleolithic Boundary in Eurasia

Chronology of the Upper Palaeolithic Sequence in the Kůlna Cave (Okr. Blansko/CZ)
ZDEňKA NERUDOVá · PETR NERUDA CHRONOLOGY OF THE UPPER PALAEOLITHIC SEQUENCE in the Kůlna Cave (oKr. BlansKo/CZ) In memory of Karel Valoch (April 16, 1920-February 16, 2013) In the Moravian region, the development of Upper Palaeolithic cultures is represented mainly by mono- cultural sites that do not comprise complex stratigraphic sequences like those known to us e. g. from Ger- many or Austria (Willendorf II, Bez. Krems-Land / A; Krems-Hundsteig / A; Sesselfelsgrotte, Lkr. Kelheim / D etc.). Moreover, the localities belonging to the Last Glacial Maximum are often badly preserved due to the stratigraphic position of geological layers just below the surface, as is exemplified by the Czech sites Brno Štýřice (Valoch 1975; Nerudová et al. 2012), Loštice I – Kozí vrch (okr. Šumperk; Nerudová et al. 2012; Neruda / Nerudová / Čulíková 2009) or Mokrá (okr. Brnovenkov; Škrdla / Kos 19971998). Nevertheless, the settlement strategies in the distinct periods of the Upper Palaeolithic greatly differed from one another, and the large quantity of proofs available to us is related to this as well. At the beginning of the Upper Palaeo- lithic, the settlement of caves in Moravia was rather episodic (Oliva 1995; 1991), combined with hunting expeditions, and the utilisation of caves was similarly marginal in the Gravettian period (Oliva 2007). By contrast, for the Magdalenian hunters the Moravian Karst was very appealing as is proven by the large number of sites of diverse functions (Valoch 2001; Svoboda 2000). There is indication that the Late Palaeo- lithic occupation was sporadic, nevertheless this may be affected by considerable sub-recent and recent destruction of cave sediments. -

Cost Units to Understand Flint Procurement Strategies During The
Stones in Motion: Cost units to understand flint procurement strategies during the Upper Palaeolithic in the south-western Pyrenees using GIS Alejandro Prieto, Maite García-Rojas, Aitor Sánchez, Aitor Calvo, Eder Domínguez-Ballesteros, Javier Ordoño, Maite Iris García-Collado Department of Geography, Prehistory and Archaeology. Faculty of Arts, University of the Basque Country. Tomás y Valiente Street N/N, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain. Email: Prieto: [email protected]; García-Rojas: [email protected]; Sánchez: [email protected]; Calvo: [email protected]; Domínguez-Ballesteros: [email protected]; Ordoño: [email protected]; García-Collado: [email protected] Abstract: Studies on lithic resource management –mainly flint– by prehistoric groups south of the western Pyrenees have significantly increased during the past decades. These studies usually focus on identifying outcrops and characterising the different varieties found at archaeological sites. However, the understanding of mobility and territorial management patterns based on raw materials is still very limited and has only been tackled in terms of lineal distance. This paper proposes a methodological approach for the territorial analysis of flint distribution with the three following aims: 1) to determine the expansion ranges of each variety of flint from its outcrop; 2) to spatially relate these outcrops with archaeological sites; and 3) to improve our knowledge on the catchment strategies of Upper Palaeolithic groups. The methodological tool chosen to fulfil these objectives is the Geographic Information System (GIS), because it allows to relate spatially the flint outcrops and flint varieties identified at archaeological sites based on: 1) isocost maps showing the cost of expansion for each variety of flint across the territory built on topography; 2) the quantification of the cost of expansion using Cost Units (CU); and 3) the relationship between the percentage of each variety of flint at each archaeological site and the cost of accessing its outcrop. -

Syracuse, Italy)
Sophie Bouffier, Vincent Dumas, Philippe Lenhardt, Jean-Louis Paillet HYDROSYRA Project. Some Reflections about the Ancient Aqueduct of Galermi (Syracuse, Italy) Summary Since 2012, the Centre Camille Jullian team carries out an interdisciplinary study of the aqueduct Galermi, architectural work and hydraulic engineering of about 30 km long. This aqueduct, built between the 5th century BC and the Roman Empire, first supplied drinking water to Greek and/or Roman Syracuse. In the 16th–17th centuries, partial transformations have been done and changed the function of the channel, with the installation of flour mills. In the 19th century, the new Italian state gradually expropriated immediate neighbors who exploited abusively the aqueduct. It was then devoted only to irrigate the Syracusan territory according to a system of concessions that has almost remained unchanged since the 19th century. The paper will present this program and the last results that the team obtained in the last two years, particularly about intakes of water and underground galleries, and which chronology can be proposed. Keywords: Aqueduct; Greek and Roman Antiquity; drinking water; Sicily Seit 2012 führt das Zentrum von Camille-Jullian eine interdisziplinäre Studie zum Galermi- Aquädukt, seiner Architektur und hydraulischen Technik auf ungefähr 30 km Länge durch. Dieses Aquädukt, gebaut zwischen dem 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. und dem römischen Reich, lieferte zunächst Trinkwasser zum griechischen bzw. römischen Syrakus. Vom 16. bis 17. Jahrhundert sind partielle Umwandlungen getätigt worden, die die Funktion des Kanals durch die Inbetriebnahme von Getreidemühlen änderten. Im 19. Jahrhundert dann ent- eignete der neue italienische Staat stufenweise Anrainer, die das Aquädukt-Wasser illegal angezapft hatten. -

Early Modern Low Countries 1 (2017) 2, pp. 273-296 - eISSN: 2543-1587 273 The Banished Scholar Beverland, Sex, and Liberty in the Seventeenth-Century Low Countries Karen Hollewand Karen Hollewand completed her ba and ma at the University of Utrecht before moving to England, where she finished her dphil on the banishment of Beverland at the University of Oxford in 2016. She is interested in the early modern social, cultural, and intellectual history of Europe and of the Low Countries in particular. Currently, she is editing her thesis for publication, working on an English translation of Beverland’s De Peccato Originali with Floris Verhaart, and developing a new research project on sex and science in the early modern period. Abstract Scholar Hadriaan Beverland was banished from Holland in 1679. Why was this humanist exiled from one of the most tolerant parts of Europe in the seventeenth century? This arti- cle argues that it was Beverland’s singular focus on sexual lust that got him into such great trouble. In his studies, he highlighted the importance of sex in human nature, history, and his own society. Dutch theologians disliked his theology, exegesis, and his use of erudition to mock their authority. His humanist colleagues did not support him either, since Bev- erland threatened the basis of the humanist enterprise by drawing attention to the sexual side of the classical world. And Dutch magistrates were happy to convict the young scholar, because he had insolently accused them of hypocrisy. By restricting sex to marriage, in compliance with Reformed doctrine, secular authorities upheld a sexual morality that was unattainable, Beverland argued, and he proposed honest discussion of the problem of sex.
