    Verucchio and its Hinterland. Landscape Archaeology in the Valmarecchia

    No full text
    The special position occupied in prehistoric research by the proto-urban centre of Verucchio in southern Romagna can be explained not only in the extraordinary finds that have been made in its necropolis but also in its position as an Etruscan bridgehead in Umbrian territory. However, the history of the origins of the settlement and its zone of influence are largely unexplored. The project Verucchio: City Development and Trade Links, 11th-7th Century BC, supported by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), aims to address this desideratum at various levels such as survey, settlement patterns, trade routes and raw material supply. Research focuses on the areas directly adjacent to the valley of the river Marecchia, the main trade route between the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Adriatic coast in this area. Between 2009 and 2013 an archaeological landscape survey was successfully carried out and will be completed in 2015. Particular attention is being paid to topographically favoured hilltops and plateaus. In most of these locations archaeological remains with varying degrees of clarity can be identified through systematic site inspections. During the previous five survey campaigns more than 200 sites dating from the Stone Age to the Roman Imperial Age have been located. This preliminary paper aims to give an overview of the most important known and some of the newly discovered archaeological sites in the Marecchia Valley

    On a Two-Parameter Yule-Simon Distribution

    No full text
    We extend the classical one-parameter Yule-Simon law to a version depending on two parameters, which in part appeared in Bertoin (J Stat Phys 176(3):679–691, 2019) in the context of a preferential attachment algorithm with fading memory. By making the link to a general branching process with age- dependent reproduction rate, we study the tail-asymptotic behavior of the two- parameter Yule-Simon law, as it was already initiated in Bertoin (J Stat Phys 176(3):679–691, 2019). Finally, by superposing mutations to the branching process, we propose a model which leads to the two-parameter range of the Yule-Simon law, generalizing thereby the work of Simon (Biometrika 42(3/4):425–440, 1955) on limiting word frequencies
