Vaz-de-Mello1 & M. Cupello1, 2 Abstract Discussed and illustrated are the type specimens of the nine species names established by REDTENBACHER (1868) for South American dung beetle taxa: Canthon auricollis, C. cyanopterus, C. fulgidus, C. lampro- deres, C. ornatus, C. puncticollis, C. quadripunctatus, Choeridium foveicolle, and C. platymerum. Lecto- types are designated for all of them, and the following taxonomic conclusions are presented: firstly, it was seen that the name Canthon auricollis was previously misapplied to a species taxon in the Canthon subge- nus Peltecanthon, whereas in fact it represents a species of the subgenus Canthon s.str., where it is trans- ferred to; a former junior synonym of it, C. splendidus SCHMIDT, 1922, is revalidated to name the species of the subgenus Peltecanthon called by former authors "C.

Keywords: Physical anthropology, skeletal biology, bioarchaeology, paleopathology, craniology, biological distance, multivariate statistics, dental studies, genetic studies, Polynesian origins, Lapita skeletons Contents 1. Introduction 2. Pacific Islands: Geology, Prehistory and Linguistics 3. First Impressions/Early Paradigms (Table 1) 4. Pacific Relationships and Polynesian Origins (Table 2) 5. Health, Disease, and Lifestyle of Early Pacific Islanders (Table 3) 6. Regional Studies in Skeletal Biology 7. Conclusions and Future Prospects Acknowledgements Glossary Bibliography Biographical Sketch Summary A brief summary of studies in physical anthropology and skeletal biology of the Pacific and Polynesia is presented. Commencing with early studies in physical anthropology in the mid-nineteenth century, which included studies of living as well as prehistoric inhabitants of the Pacific, this survey focuses mainly on two topics: What studies of skeletons from the region have revealed about 1) the initial peopling of the Pacific and the origins of the Polynesians and 2) the health and lifestyle of past Pacific Islanders and Polynesians. Despite the limited number of studies in the physical anthropology of the Pacific and issues surrounding repatriation, a significant amount of information about the past inhabitants of this region continues to emerge from work involving human skeletons. 1. Introduction This chapter summarizes previous work in physical anthropology and skeletal biology of the Pacific. Although evidence from other areas in physical anthropology (e.g., genetic and dental studies) is included, the major focus will be what studies of human skeletons and teeth reveal about the origins, health, and lifestyle of the indigenous inhabitants of the Pacific, particularly Polynesians.

  • A Habsburg on the Mexican Throne
    GROTIUS – KÖZLEMÉNYEK David VOGEL Emperador Maximiliano – A Habsburg on the Mexican Throne Emperor Maximilian http://www.nevadaobserver.com/TNO%20Reference%20Page%20File/Maximilan,%20Emperor%20of%20Mexico.jpg Preface As the topic of my essay, I’ve chosen a historical event of maybe less importance, although with many peculiarities. The story of an archduke from the imperial and royal family of Habsburg-Lorraine accepting the invitation of the French Emperor to occupy the throne of a country that is 10 000 kilometres away from his home could be the object-lesson of great powers playing. The aim of the study is to give an insight in this short moment of Mexico’s history and to show a picture of Hungarian soldiers fighting on Latin American soil. 1 GROTIUS – KÖZLEMÉNYEK Historical Background The first half of the nineteenth century started really eventfully for Mexico. The 1910s were spent achieving independence, the subsequent decade brought a short-lived empire and then major territorial losses in due course followed by instability, which further weakened the young state. The situation was still aggravated by the war fought against the USA between 1846 and 1848. In the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ending the two-year war Mexico lost one third of its territory: Texas, furthermore the bigger part of California, Arizona and New-Mexico. In the fifties the policy of consolidation of the Amerindian (Zapotec) president Benito Juarez ensued, which is remembered by the public under the name of La Reforma1. , it was impossible for his reforms to result in significant changes in the little time at his disposal and they only contributed to the stability of the country to a limited extent.

    Europeana Learning Scenario (Museum Educators) Title WISH YOU WERE HERE: Souvenirs from a journey around the world Author(s) Costanza Grassi Abstract Let’s go sailing around the world, let’s explore the unknown, let’s discover art and nature. This Learning Scenario tells the story of a journey around the world, a shared dream come true of a prince, a gardener and a painter. It will empower children’s curiosity and their spontaneous desire to discover new things and make their everyday life better through art, nature, and beauty. The aim is to drive them to never cease from their personal exploration, even using only their imagination, an indeed extremely powerful tool, especially in complicated times (such as these of pandemic emergency). We will go in the middle of the Indian Ocean and beyond, we will look for tracks in Archives and Museums, without leaving our home. We will send a postcard and then we will return with brand new notions, never seen before plants and, most important of all, new ideas.
