Coastal Landscapes at Punta di Zambrone (Capo Vaticano, Calabria) and their Suitability for Harbour Facilities during the Bronze Age. Orea|Punta di Zambrone I Oriental and European Archaeology Volume 17|
A multidisciplinary approach, including geomorphological and stratigraphical analyses as well as bathymetric, geophysical and subaqueous surveys, has been adopted to reconstruct the morphology of the coasts around the Punta di Zambrone site during the Bronze Age. The main aim was to examine the possibility of the existence of landing places and harbour facilities connected to the settlement, due to the important role that this centre exerted for the maritime trade exchanges in the Tyrrhenian and Aegean Seas. The geomorphological context of the coast north of Punta di Zambrone, characterised by the presence of shoals and rocky cliffs, seems to have been unfavourable to the presence of stable and equipped landing places during the protohistory, also in view of the exposure of the coast to dominant westerly waves. The chances of landing were probably limited to the plain south of the cape. Here, a geophysical survey, coupled with the analysis of a 28m sediment core, highlighted the presence of a protected shallow marine environment, which persisted in this area at least up to the Roman Age
The World Map of the Corpus Pelagianum (BNE, 1513, fol. 1v) and its Strategies of Identification. Medieval Worlds|Movement and Mobility & Ideologies of Translation, III - Volume 13. 2021 medieval worlds Volume 13. 2021|
One of the manuscripts of the famous Corpus Pelagianum contains a square world map that is simultaneously a genealogical chart of peoples that are descended from the sons of Noah. In combining a geographical imagination of the world with genealogies, this illustration becomes an impressive intellectual achievement of the high medieval Iberian Peninsula and differs considerably from other forms of medieval world maps. In this article the characteristics of this cartographical and genealogical figure will be investigated in general, but also with regard to the map’s context in the manuscript Madrid, BNE, 1513. Hence, the map will be contextualised in relation to the text corpus that follows it and, therefore, its interaction with the textual heritage of Christian-Iberian historical writing, from the ninth to the twelfth centuries, will be illuminated. In particular, the Etymologies of Isidore of Seville were an important source, both for the textual content of this codex and for the information displayed on the map. Accordingly, this article is, after some introductory passages on the composition of the codex BNE 1513, divided into two parts. The first describes the characteristics of the geographical chart and compares them with other contemporary world maps. The second part addresses peoples of the world that appear in this illustration and discusses how their identification correlates with the historiographical texts in BNE 1513. So far, these parallels have not been taken into account in research on this codex

Automatische Erkennung von Zugsvorbeifahren mit Machine Learning Algorithmen
Durch die gestiegenen Rechen- und Speicherkapazitäten ist die Erfassung und Bearbeitung größerer Mengen seismischer Signale und, im Rahmen dieses Vortrags, durch von Zugsvorbeifahrten ausgelösten Erschütterungen möglich geworden. Nachfolgend wird ein Überblick über state-of-the-art Trigger und die Aufarbeitung der Messdaten zur Extraktion seismischer Features gegeben sowie zwei mögliche Ansätze zur Erkennung und Klassifikation von Zugsvorbeifahrten angeführt. Die verwendeten neuronalen Netze zeigten für die verwendeten Datensätze eine Tendenz zur Überanpassung welche nur partiell behoben werden konnte. Für ausgewählte Datensätze konnten Vorhersagegenauigkeiten von über 90% erreicht werden
