Complete-Animal Units extended along the bottom of the arroyo from Section 5 on the east to Section 22 on the west (Figs. 30A, 3L4). They were not continuous throughout, and occurred with greatest frequency in the deeper eastern part of the arroyo.Generally speaking, complete-animal units were confined to the inner channel of the arroyo and were thereby constrained to an east or west orientation. However, Units 369,433, 519, 141, and 190 rested at least partly on the upper channel wall.One group of 8 complete-animal units (290, 324, 327, 366, 367, 369, 398, 433) began in the central part of Section 5 and continued almost to Section 10. In Sections 5 and 6, and again in Section 8, they formed a layer at least 2 deep. No complete-animal units were found in Section 10, but following this gap, another (519) was found in the east end of Section 11. A single complete-animal unit (190) occurred along the Section 16-17 line, and another (93) occupied the bottom of the arroyo from the central part of Section 18 well into Section 19.

The Many

The Limestone Massif of northwest Syria has the largest concentration of late antique churches in the world. All date from between the second half of the 4th century and the first decade of the 7th century and are remarkably consistent in their conformity to a recognizably ‘Syrian’ architectural style. Almost without exception they are apsed basilicas varying only in terms of size and the quality of decoration.This region was extensively surveyed in the 1950s by Georges Tchalenko, whose monumental three-volume study Villages antiques de la Syrie du nord remains the definitive work on the area. Of the many ecclesiastical buildings included in this survey Tchalenko identified a group of approximately 45 churches possessing a bema. The bema is a horseshoe-shaped structure in the nave that mirrors the curve of the apse. Entered via steps at the east end, it provided benches for the clergy and a pulpit at the west end that was used for scriptural expositions and homilies.

Although the Rhætic beds are not exposed continuously along the eastern boundary of the Keuper outcrop, they have been proved at many points from the River Trent in the north on the Nottinghamshire border to Glen Parva in the south. South of this point there is so much drift, and borings within the Liassic outcrop have been so isolated or shallow, that there is a gap in our knowledge of the intervening ground between the last point and the Rugby district. The Countesthorpe boring, carried to a depth of over 600 feet, encountered Upper Keuper beneath the Drift, with no intervening Rhætics. Commencing in the north in the Gotham district the two outliers are capped above the Red Marl and Tea-green Marl with Rhætic beds, and Lower Lias Limestone (Ps. planorbe zone) above. At Ash Spinney at the south end of the southern outlier, and at the east end of Crownend Wood, Black Shales with Avicula contorta crop out; and on the west side septaria are seen. On the north-west side of the northern outlier at Cottager's Hill Protocardium phillipianum has been found in a well-section near the lane. Rhætic shales are seen in the shafts driven for gypsum works about Gotham.

Juda Hirsch Quastel, who contributed for more than 60 years to the growth of biochemistry, was born in Sheffield, in a room over his father’s rented sweet shop on the Ecclesall Road. The date was 2 October 1899, and his parents, Jonas and Flora (Itcovitz) Quastel, had lived in England for only a few years. They had emigrated separately from the city of Tamopol in eastern Galicia, which was then within the Austro-Hungarian Empire; it has since, after a period under Polish rule, become part of the Ukrainian Republic of the Soviet Union. Tamopol at the end of the 19th century was a city of some 30 000 and the centre of an agricultural district. Its inhabitants were ethnically mixed, but about half of them were Jews, many of whom under the relatively benevolent Austrian regime were fairly prosperous. Quastel used to recall how his father and grandfather had held the Emperor Franz Joseph in great respect. His grandfather, also Juda Hirsch (married to Yetta Rappoport), had at one time worked as a chemist in a brewery laboratory in Tamopol. The parents of the subject of this biography had been in commerce there, and were not poor; but today’s family members know little about the life of Jonas and Flora in Tamopol, or about the reasons that persuaded them, like many of their neighbours, to emigrate to the West. An uncle had already gone to England, and perhaps had encouraged them to follow because of the greater opportunities. In England they lived at first in London’s east end, where they worked in garment factories; but their move to Sheffield, and to Jonas’s modest entrepreneurship, had been completed in the late 1890s. It was there that Juda Hirsch and his four younger siblings (Charles, Doris, Hetty and Anne) were born.

Ancient Remains

Amongst the important operations which the precarious state of many parts of Hereford Cathedral required, the strengthening of the foundations of the range of Norman piers running throughout the church, from the east end of the choir to the west of the nave, was found to be absolutely necessary, not only in those parts immediately circumjacent to the main piers of the central tower, but in several other portions. This has been achieved by the excavation of the earth to the depth of nine or ten feet, and the filling up of the cavities so laid open with concrete. In the course of this process many very curious and interesting discoveries have been made, both in the architectural department and in the disclosure of ancient remains, which at some future time may not be unworthy of a more detailed account. On the present occasion I propose to confine my remarks to two objects which claim particular notice—namely, two Episcopal Rings, which were discovered in the following manner:

About four o’clock on Thursday afternoon, July 13th 1758. a short but severe thunder-storm, with lightning, fell upon the top of an house standing alone, and belonging to a common garden, on the causeway near Sandling's ferry, in the city of Norwich; struck off the tiles of the roof at the east end, to the space of a yard or two 5 burnt a very small hole in the middle of a lath, in piercing into the chamber, and then darted to the north-east; ript off the top of an old chair, without throwing it down; snapt the two heads of the bed-posts, rent the curtains, drove against the wall (the front of the house stands due north-east), forced out an upright of a window frame a yard long, three inches broad, and two thick; smote it in a right line into an opposite ditch, ten or twelve yards distant; then struck down on the wall of the chamber, paring off half a foot s breadth of its plaistered covering quite down to the floor, listed up a board of the floor, and leaving an hole of half an inch diameter, pierced thro’ by the side of the main beam into the kitchen, towards the west end of a pewter- shelf; traversed the whole shelf to the east, and melted superficially to the breadth of a shilling six pewter dishes, two plates, and a pewter bason, all standing touching one another: two of the dishes were thrown down, the rest not displaced.

The village of Durrington is situate on the right bank of the river Avon, about three miles north of Amesbury; the village of Bulford, where the military camp is, being on the other side of the river.There are two manors in the parish, which contains only 2,702 acres, the east end manor and the west end manor. It is to the east end manor that I am about to refer. In the thirteenth century it belonged to a family of the name of Nevill. I exhibit the counterpart of a grant of the manor by Hervey de Nevill to the nuns of Amesbury for the term of three years in consideration of forty marks down and twenty more in expectancy.

Erosion Coast

A erosão costeira, que pode ser de decorrência natural ou por consequência de ações humanas, vem deixando suas marcas no litoral de Caucaia, destruindo residências, barracas de praia e outras estruturas urbanas. O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a variação da linha de costa do município de Caucaia – CE, em um período de 10 anos, e categorizá-la a partir de classificação pré-definida a partir de estudos anteriores. A delimitação da linha de costa foi realizada a partir de imagens RapidEye e QuickBird tendo como base a linha de preamar média (LPM), esta determinação serviu para calcular suas taxas de variação a partir do parâmetro Linear Regression Rate (LRR). Os resultados levantados permitiram fazer análises particularizadas por praias. Desta forma verificou-se que as tendências erosivas se apresentam em 38% da costa, concentrando-se, no extremo leste do litoral e na sua região central. Já o trecho costeiro oeste apresentou taxas que indicam estabilidade e acreção.Palavras-chave: Linhas de costa; erosão costeira; Litoral de Caucaia. ABSTRACTThe Coastal erosion that may be due to natural causes or human actions has left its mark on the coast of Caucaia, destroying residences, beach tents and urban infrastructures (e.g.avenues). The objective of this study is to evaluate the shoreline variation of the municipality of Caucaia - CE over a period of 10 years and to categorize it from the classification applied by Esteves and Finkl (1998) and Luijendijk et al. (2018).The delimitation of the shoreline was made using a RapidEye and QuickBird images based on the average hightide line (LPM), this determination was used to calculate their rates of variation from the parameter Linear Regression Rate (LRR). In this way, it was verified that the erosive tendencies present in 38% of the coast, concentrating, mainly, between the central region and the more east end, in counterpoint, starting from the central area to the west are rates that indicate stability and accretion.Keywords: shoreline, coastal erosion, coast of Caucaia. RESUMENLa erosión costera que puede ser de naturaleza natural o como resultado de acciones humanas ha dejado su huella en la costa de Caucaia, destruyendo casas, cabañas de playa y otras estructuras urbanas.

La delimitación de la costa se realizó a partir de imágenes RapidEye y QuickBird basadas en la línea media previa al casco (LPM), esta determinación se utilizó para calcular sus tasas de cambio a partir del parámetro Tasa de regresión lineal (LRR). Los resultados obtenidos permitieron realizar análisis individualizados por playas. Por lo tanto, se encontró que las tendencias de erosión están presentes en el 38% de la costa, concentrándose en el extremo este de la costa y en su región central. El tramo costero occidental mostró tasas que indican estabilidad y acreción.Palabras clave: costas; erosión costera; Costa del Caucaia.

T. Chandler’s city data are used to inquire whether, and when, East Asia was a world system in itself, or part of a larger Old World world-system; and whether, and when, the east end of the Old World oikumene was more “advanced” than the west end. On the available data, (1) A.G. Frank’s thesis of a single Old World world-system is less well supported than the thesis of a long coexistence of a plurality of world systems, including a separate Far Eastern system; (2) Frank’s thesis of the general economic lead of “China” over “Europe” is supported; (3) there is evidence of an interesting medieval outrunning of the “west end” by the “east end” economy, which begs further investigation.
