Preliminary results from the EPRI Plume Model Validation Project: plains site. Interim report

AbstractRecent excavations at the Greco-Libyan site of Euesperides, Benghazi, have included a sampling programme for the retrieval of macroscopic plant remains. Preliminary results are now available and help to shed some light on the economy of the site between the sixth and the third centuries BC. Barley is the principal cereal crop recorded, while both hulled and free-threshing wheats are present. Fruit remains generally dominate the samples and include frequent seeds of grape and fig. The grape pips are of interest in that they appear to be morphologically more wild than cultivated. It is thought that they may be of a variety which does not conform with the characteristics of better known northern Mediterranean varieties of grape.

AbstractFollowing a brief discussion of the literature and intellectual history of Rome’s river port, this article presents preliminary results from a mechanized coring survey of the Forum Boarium valley. Conducted in 2015, this survey produced empirical evidence on prehistoric human activity Rome’s floodplain and acquired substantial data on the paleolandscape of the region, including the shifting position of the Tiber River and the discovery of lacustrine deposits in the valley. Additionally, consideration is given to the advantages and limitations posed by the natural landscape during the origins of settlement and early urban development at Rome.

As part of the uranium extraction research programme carried out at the Risø National Laboratory, geochemical and mineralogical investigations of the Kvanefjeld area were conducted at the Geological Survey of Greenland. In the present contribution the principal conclusions on the distribution of uranium and the mineralogy of the potential uranium ore from Kvanefjeld are summarised. Detailed results are given in a GGU interim report (Makovicky et al., 1979).

This is an interim report on a Cambridge Research Thesis which has been in progress for three years, and which will eventually cover the major part of the British Lower and Middle Palaeolithic. The whole project may be divided into four phases:1. Collection and examination of all the available material;2. Selection of those groups of implements appropriate for study;3. Application of objective methods of study, mainly in the field of metrical and statistical analysis;4. Interpretation of the results.The present paper gives some account of what has so far been done under the first three of these headings. It is still too early to attempt any major conclusions, although it is perhaps fair to indicate the lines along which it can be hoped they will take shape.
