First letter to Mr. Don Edward Totten to Chicago, dated 11 July 1950 (in March he had finished his MA at Chicago: in May he had married Christine Schmidt-Rohr)
“I have written to Colonel Schroeder, asking that a request for travel orders be issued for you from Westover Field to Rhein/ Main. All requests must originate Stateside, and upon request of same we shall cable back priority. I should like to point out that at the present time all flights are cancelled over the Atlantic, and at this very moment we are still looking for five professors from our campus who were due to arrive last Friday.”
Signed Ray Ehrensberger

“The staff joins in asserting that you serve as an inspiration to all of us -an inspiration because of your untiring dedication to the job at hand, to scholarship, and to high standards in every thing involving faculty and staff. We also wish to thank you for our no-so-incidental increase in the awareness of the wonder of Geography.”

There 's no BOQ in Col-o-rad-doo
Maryland my Maryland
It's just the same in CIarion, too
Maryland my Maryland
You've had it good, you know the facts

And MAN! When you pay that income tax
Oh, Maryland my Marylan
Salapia-Salpi 1. Scavi e ricerche 2013-2016
No full textIl volume presenta i risultati del primo quadriennio (2013-2016) di indagini condotte sulle sponde meridionali dell’attuale zona umida e delle saline di Trinitapoli-Margherita di Savoia, laddove già da tempo si ipotizzava fossero sepolte le strutture della città romana di Salapia: centro tanto menzionato dalle fonti scritte, quanto del tutto rimasto ai margini dell’interesse storico-archeologico.
L’avvio delle ricerche sistematiche, a seguito della collaborazione tra il Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici dell’Università di Foggia, il Davidson College – North Carolina (USA) e, dal 2016, il Department of History and Classical Studies della McGill University (Montreal – Canada), sta consentendo di riscrivere la storia del centro dall’età della sua fondazione alla fine del I secolo a.C., sino al definitivo abbandono alle soglie dell’Età moderna.
Nella prima parte si propone un inquadramento del comprensorio territoriale in cui Salapia è inserita e si ripercorre la storia degli studi e delle ricerche che, nel corso del secolo scorso, hanno riguardato l’insediamento. Nella seconda sono illustrati i dati acquisiti sia a seguito delle ricognizioni di superficie condotte nell’area della città prima dell’avvio degli scavi sistematici, sia delle prospezioni geofisiche estensive, che hanno svelato la fisionomia della città sepolta. La terza parte raccoglie i contributi incentrati sui contesti scavati tra il 2014 e il 2016 in due settori diversi del tessuto urbanistico: il centrale isolato XII, dove sono state esplorate una domus a peristilio, una piccola conceria annessa alla domus e parte delle abitazioni confinanti; il prospicente isolato XVI, con un nucleo di tabernae affacciate sul cardine massimo. La sezione più corposa è dedicata ai materiali rinvenuti (reperti ceramici, vitrei, metallici, numismatici, epigrafici, bioarcheologici) e alle analisi archeometriche effettuate. Il volume si chiude con la presentazione del progetto di archeologia pubblica OpenSalapia.

Totten Glacier Ice Shelf cavity bathymetry
No full textProgress Code: completedThis is a derived product containing two products blended together that describes the elevation of the seafloor beneath and out to approximately seaward of the Totten Glacier Ice Shelf cavity as well as the elevation of the ice bottom beneath the ice sheet immediately sounding the ice shelf cavity. The seafloor was inferred by inverting airborne gravity observations; the terrain beneath grounded ice was observed with airborne ice sounding radar measurements. The two products were blended along the grounding line observed with satellite observations [Rignot, E., Mouginot, J. and Scheuchl, B. Antarctic grounding line mapping from differential satellite radar interferometry. Geophys. Res. Lett. 38, L10504 (2011)]. <br/><br/>We have provided a text file that contains three columns that may be used to produce a gridded bathymetry of the Totten Glacier Ice Shelf and surrounding area with a cell size of 1-km. The first two columns contain grid coordinates using the Polar Stereographic projection based on WGS84 with true scale at 71 degrees S. The third column contains the vertical coordinate representing the seafloor beneath and the ice-bottom elevation around the Totten Glacier Ice Shelf cavity. The center of the region is located near 115E and 67S and spans an area about 217 km by 131 km.<br/><br/>The data are described in detail in the publication and supplementary materials that can be found by following this link:<br/>http://www.nature.com/ngeo/journal/v8/n4/abs/ngeo2388.html#supplementary-informatio
Scavi Archeologici di Salapia
No full textPrima campagna di scavi nell'area dell'antica città di Salapia, condotta dal Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici dell'Università di Foggia in collaboprazione con il Davidson College North Carolina USA, in regime di concessione della Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici della Puglia. Le ricerche hanno riguardato una domus privata della piena età imperiale e una struttura produttiva, identificabile probabilmente con una conceria. Si è inoltre ricostruita la pianta della città romana grazie alle indagini geofisiche
