Terrestrial Fauna and marine produce in Sumhuram
No full textLa parte più importante del materiale studiato in questo lavoro proviene dagli scavi del 2003 nelle aree F e A, e comprende unità stratigrafiche pertinenti ad un tempio e a una casa del periodi di più intenso popolamento, KRI e KRII. Oltre a questi sono stati esaminati i resti faunistici provenienti ad vani e US adiacenti al tempio.The most significant part of the material examined by this study comes from the 2003 excavation in Area
F and Area A and comprises the stratigraphical units
of a religious building and a dwelling house both of
which date to the two main periods of densest inhabitation
KRI and KRII, according to the terminology
adopted on the field by IMTO.
In addition to this main nucleus, the faunal remains of
some stratigraphical units of the 2000B excavations
and various chambers of area A (KRI and KRII) were
examined as well as those from two stratigraphical
units of area F (KRII) adjacent to the temple
Human- deer interactions in Sardinia
No full textLa presenza del cervo in Sardegna è attestata almento dal tardo Neolitico. Probabilmente da tempi antichi gli esemplari viventi sull'isola si diversificarono nella sottospecie autoctona Cervus elaphus corsicanus.The presence of the red deer in Sardinia is attested al least from the late Neolithic. Probably from ancient times the specimens living on the island developed in the autochthonus subspecies Cervus elaphus corsicanus
L’economia animale dal Medioevo all’età moderna nella Sardegna nord occidentale
No full textLa presente pubblicazione si inserisce nell’attività del laboratorio di Archeozoologia del dipartimento di Storia dell’università di Sassari e comprende una sintesi del lavoro di diversi anni in una ristretta area della Sardegna nord occidentale. Vengono presi in esame i siti relativi al medioevo e all’età moderna, mettendo in evidenza i cambiamenti dovuti a specie di nuova introduzione e alle tecniche di allevamento in evoluzione nei diversi periodi.This work is a part of the activity of the Laboratory of archaeozoology of the Department of History of Sassari, and includes a summary of the work of several years in a restricted area of north-western Sardinia. We take into consideration the sites related to medieval and the modern age, highlighting the changes caused by new species and breeding techniques evolving in different periods
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
