Considering their significance in the ancient Mediterranean and the ancient Near East alike, as well as to the Mediterranean their value as key economic assets, textiles hold significant potential for the understanding of the ancient economy. Making them the subject of more detailed economic analyses in their own right is a central objective of the present volume. Because it is not possible to analyze distributional Edited by Kerstin Droß-Krüpe patterns or the channels of distribution for ancient textiles exclusively on the basis of either written sources and Marie-Louise Nosch or archaeological findings, this volume brings together different source material, disciplines, and methodological approaches, including modern Economics, to analyze the 2 textiles that were traded, trade-routes, markets for buying ⋼ and selling, and the formation and operation of institutions des östlichen Mittelmeerraums und Altvorderasiens that ensured the smooth functioning of processes of textile exchange. ἐμπόριον forum www.ugarit-verlag.com KEF-2-Cover.indd 1 18.10.2016 15:18:09 Textiles, Trade and Theories From the Ancient Near East to the Mediterranean Edited by Kerstin Droß-Krüpe and Marie-Louise Nosch © 2016, Ugarit-Verlag – Buch- und Medienhandel GmbH, Münster ISBN Print: 978-3-86835-224-5 – ISBN E-Book: 978-3-86835-225-2 Kārum – Emporion – Forum Beiträge zur Wirtschafts-, Rechts- und Sozialgeschichte des östlichen Mittelmeerraums und Altvorderasiens Band 2 Herausgegeben von Angelika Lohwasser, Hans Neumann und Kai Ruffing © 2016, Ugarit-Verlag – Buch- und Medienhandel GmbH, Münster ISBN Print: 978-3-86835-224-5 – ISBN E-Book: 978-3-86835-225-2 Textiles, Trade and Theories From the Ancient Near East to the Mediterranean Edited by Kerstin Droß-Krüpe and Marie-Louise Nosch 2016 Ugarit-Verlag Münster © 2016, Ugarit-Verlag – Buch- und Medienhandel GmbH, Münster ISBN Print: 978-3-86835-224-5 – ISBN E-Book: 978-3-86835-225-2 Textiles, Trade and Theories: From the Ancient Near East to the Mediterranean Edited by Kerstin Droß-Krüpe and Marie-Louise Nosch Kārum – Emporion – Forum 2 © 2016 Ugarit-Verlag, Münster www.ugarit-verlag.com All rights reserved.

  • The Peculiar Protein Ultrastructure of Fan Shell and Pearl Oyster Byssus
    Soft Matter View Article Online PAPER View Journal | View Issue A new twist on sea silk: the peculiar protein ultrastructure of fan shell and pearl oyster byssus† Cite this: Soft Matter, 2018, 14,5654 a a b b Delphine Pasche, * Nils Horbelt, Fre´de´ric Marin, Se´bastien Motreuil, a c d Elena Macı´as-Sa´nchez, Giuseppe Falini, Dong Soo Hwang, Peter Fratzl *a and Matthew James Harrington *ae Numerous mussel species produce byssal threads – tough proteinaceous fibers, which anchor mussels in aquatic habitats. Byssal threads from Mytilus species, which are comprised of modified collagen proteins – have become a veritable archetype for bio-inspired polymers due to their self-healing properties. However, threads from different species are comparatively much less understood. In particular, the byssus of Pinna nobilis comprises thousands of fine fibers utilized by humans for millennia to fashion lightweight golden fabrics known as sea silk. P. nobilis is very different from Mytilus from an ecological, morphological and evolutionary point of view and it stands to reason that the structure– Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. function relationships of its byssus are distinct. Here, we performed compositional analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to investigate byssal threads of P. nobilis, as well as a closely related bivalve species (Atrina pectinata) and a distantly related one (Pinctada fucata). Received 20th April 2018, This comparative investigation revealed that all three threads share a similar molecular superstructure Accepted 18th June 2018 comprised of globular proteins organized helically into nanofibrils, which is completely distinct from DOI: 10.1039/c8sm00821c the Mytilus thread ultrastructure, and more akin to the supramolecular organization of bacterial pili and F-actin.

  • Extensible Byssus of Pinctada Fucata
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Extensible byssus of Pinctada fucata: Ca2+-stabilized nanocavities and a thrombospondin-1 protein Received: 18 June 2015 1,2 1 1 1 1 1 Accepted: 15 September 2015 Chuang Liu , Shiguo Li , Jingliang Huang , Yangjia Liu , Ganchu Jia , Liping Xie & 1 Published: 08 October 2015 Rongqing Zhang The extensible byssus is produced by the foot of bivalve animals, including the pearl oyster Pinctada fucata, and enables them to attach to hard underwater surfaces. However, the mechanism of their extensibility is not well understood. To understand this mechanism, we analyzed the ultrastructure, composition and mechanical properties of the P. fucata byssus using electron microscopy, elemental analysis, proteomics and mechanical testing. In contrast to the microstructures of Mytilus sp. byssus, the P. fucata byssus has an exterior cuticle without granules and an inner core with nanocavities. The removal of Ca2+ by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) treatment expands the nanocavities and reduces the extensibility of the byssus, which is accompanied by a decrease in the β-sheet conformation of byssal proteins. Through proteomic methods, several proteins with antioxidant and anti-corrosive properties were identified as the main components of the distal byssus regions. Specifically, a protein containing thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), which is highly expressed in the foot, is hypothesized to be responsible for byssus extensibility. Together, our findings demonstrate the importance of inorganic ions and multiple proteins for bivalve byssus extension, which could guide the future design of biomaterials for use in seawater. In recent years, marine animals have attracted considerable attention in various areas of bioinspired engineering1–4.

  • The Effect of Various Spat Collector Materials to Spat Attachment
    Journal of Coastal Development ISSN : 1410-5217 Volume 15, Number 1, October 2011 : 34 - 44 Accredited : 83/Dikti/Kep/2009 Original Paper THE EFFECT OF VARIOUS SPAT COLLECTOR MATERIALS FOR SPAT ATTACHMENT OF PEARL OYSTER (Pinctada maxima) Endang Arini1 and Nur Taufiq Syamsudin Putra Jaya2 1Fisheries Department, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Diponegoro University 2Marine Science Department Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Diponegoro University Jl. Prof. Soedarto, SH, Tembalang Campus, Semarang -50275, Indonesia Received : April, 20, 2011 ; Accepted : June, 30, 2011 ABSTRACT Early stage development of pearl oyster spat was very critical, hence spat required suitable substrates for their settlement to complete their metamorphosis. In this stage, byssus for the attachment is vulnerable and easy to break if there are some disturbance e.g. water movement, hence spat easily falling onto the bottom layer which may have various dirt materials leading to the dead of the spat. In the pearl oyster culture spat collector is important. The aim of this study is to study the effect of different collector materials to the number of spat settled, to reveal the best collector materials and the endurance of spat at the collector. This study was conducted in PT Autore Pearl Culture, at Sumbawa island, Nusa Tenggara Province. Materials used in this research were collectors of different substance i.e. asbestos (A), bamboo (B), polyethylene and roof ceramic (D) substance. The method used was laboratories experiment with Completely Random Design by 4 treatments and 3 replications. Data taken were the number of spat settlement, endurance test, and water quality. Data tested with Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and further tested with Duncan Duplicate Regional test.

See the Zanzibar Tribal Art web site for an explanation and diagram of the life cycle of the various silkworms . YouTube video clip of Silk factory in Beijing Natural silk is one of the strongest textile fibres, which are accounted for by the stretched-out molecular form. Silk (78% protein) is much stiffer than wool in spite of both being proteins made from amino acids chains. Silk fibres have fine draping qualities and are naturally crease-resistant and bring about a warm feel to the skin. Of the 3-4000 metres of fibre in a cocoon, laid out as a figure of eight by the movement of the head of the pupae, less that one third is generally usable with much of the remainder being processed separately. Silk emitted by the silkworm consists of two main proteins, sericin and fibroin, fibroin being the structural center of the silk, and serecin being the sticky material surrounding it. Fibroin is largely made up of the amino acids Gly-Ser-Gly-Ala-Gly-Ala and forms beta pleated sheets, β-keratin. 1 of 9 20/10/2011 08:28 PM Unit - Chemistry of Textiles: Animal Fibres file:///C:/WWW/Courses/CHEM2402/Textiles/Animal_Fibres.html R = H, glycine; R = CH , alanine; R = CH OH, serine 3 2 Hydrogen bonds form between chains, and side chains form above and below the plane of the hydrogen bond network.

Prof. Dr. Marie-Henriette Gates September 2016 The LBA rock reliefs are the works of the last three or four generations of the Hittite Empire. The first appearance of the Hittite rock relief is dated to the reign of Muwatalli II who not only sets up an image on a living rock but also shows his own image on his seals with his tutelary deity, the Storm-god. The ex-urban settings of the LBA rock reliefs and the sacred nature of the religion make the work on this subject harder because it also requires philosophical and theological evaluations. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the reasons for executing rock reliefs, understanding the depicted scenes, revealing the subject of the depicted figures, and to interpret the purposes of the rock reliefs in LBA and IA. Furthermore, the meaning behind the visualized religious statements will be investigated.

  • Notes Brèves
    ISSN 0989-5671 2019 N° 1 (mars) NOTES BRÈVES 1) Some considerations on the geographical lists from the Uruk III period* — This note is a compilation of observations made from a comparison of the Proto-Euphratic (PE) list “Cities” (ATU 3) with the geographical lists “Geography” published in ATU 3 (henceforth GL, numbers 1–8 and X) and the only other known GL, namely MS 3173 (:= GL 9).1) In the first instance only the list “Cities” itself (because of the well-known place names) and GL 8 (URU in the colophon) can without doubt be seen as GLs. The list “Cities” makes it clear that there was originally no determinative for GNs: Determinatives are added to (almost) all the entries in a list.2) AB und É could be termed as “2nd order determinatives” as they are part of several GNs but are not used throughout (see NABU 2013/55, note 13).3) GL 8, a “non-canonical” GL, shows that a determinative for GNs (especially not KI) was never introduced in the PE writing system (KI occurs in GL 8 at the beginning and at the end of toponyms, so it is a sign like any other).4) In the other GLs only the GNs GI UNUG, ILDUM, NÍ, NUN A and UB, which are known from Cities and GL 8, can with certainty be found. To ASAR und NUN (?) the determinative KI is added. Each of the lists contains only a few of these GNs;5) the lists are linked to each other by further entries.6) The appearance of a GN in a list does not necessarily mean that it is a GN list: Compare UNUG in Cities and in Lú A; the GN ŠENNUR (GL 1, 2, 3, 9) is also listed in “Tribute” and is probably not a GN there.

We have designed a platform of modular multifunctional polyesters with pendant functional groups that address the lack of functional cues in current biomaterials.2 The polyesters were synthesized at room temperature by carbodiimide- mediated polymerization of pendant functionalized diols and succinic acid.3 The pendant groups were designed to mimic the side chains of peptides. It was shown that the physical properties of the polyesters can be modulated over a wide range by the selection of pendant groups. Orthogonal functionalization of the pendant groups with ligands such as fluorophores, poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) or Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) was shown. One specific application of functional polyester was the design of mussel inspired adhesives by incorporation of catechol groups into side chain of such polyesters.
