Radiocarbon evidence for the early Bronze Age Levant: The site of tell Fadous-Kfarabida (Lebanon) and the end of the early bronze III period
No full textAbsolute dates for the end of the Early Bronze Age ancient Near East are of crucial importance for assessing the nature and extent of mid- to late 3rd millennium BC transitions in the Near East and their alleged link to the 4.2ka BP climatic event. This article presents a radiocarbon sequence for the Early Bronze Age site of Tell Fadous-Kfarabida (Lebanon) and argues that the end of the Early Bronze III period has to be dated considerably higher than previously estimated. There is no reason to assume that the 4.2ka BP event might have contributed to or even triggered the collapse of the first urban cities in the southern and central Levant. © 2014 by the Arizona Board of Regents on behalf of the University of Arizona.Badreshany K, 2005, B ARCHEOLOGIE ARCHIT, V9, P5; Badreshany K, 2009, B AM SCH ORIENT RES, V355, P51; Bar-Matthews M, 2011, HOLOCENE, V21, P163, DOI 10.1177-0959683610384165; Ramsey CB, 2009, RADIOCARBON, V51, P1023; Ramsey CB, 1995, RADIOCARBON, V37, P425; Bronk-Ramsey C., 2002, ARCHAEOMETRY, V44, P1; BUCK CE, 1992, J ARCHAEOL SCI, V19, P497, DOI 10.1016-0305-4403(92)90025-X; Callaway JA, 1978, ARCHAEOLOGY LEVANT, P46; de Miroschedji P, 2012, ALL WISDOM E STUDIES, P265; de Miroschedji P, 2001, B SOC FRANCAISE EGYP, V152, P28; Dever WG, 1970, NEAR E ARCHAEOLOGY, P132; Genz H, 2012, COMPANION ARCHAEOLOG, P607; Genz H, 2009, B ARCHEOLOGIE ARCHIT, VVI, P107; Genz H, 2009, B ARCHEOLOGIE ARCHIT, V13, P71; Genz H, 2008, B ARCHEOLOGIE ARCHIT, V12, P149; Genz H, 2010, B ARCHEOLOGIE ARCHIT, V14, P241; Genz H, 2007, B ARCHEOLOGIE ARCHIT, V11, P7; Genz H, 2010, REPORTS RECENT FIELD, V2, P205; Genz H, 2010, NEAR EAST ARCHAEOL, V73, P102; Genz H, OLD KINGDOM POTTERY, V2; Harrison TP, 2012, COMPANION ARCHAEOLOG, P629; Kenyon K.

Stunning bolts: Late Bronze Age hunting weapons in the ancient near East
No full textA group of small bronze objects from Late Bronze Age Egypt and the Near East most likely functioned as stunning bolts for fowling. As many of these objects are found in elite tombs, they certainly were part of the equipment of high-ranking warriors. In the discussion of the sociotechnological implications of bird hunting with bows and arrows it is suggested that this was not only a leisure activity for the upper class, but also served as a training exercise for chariot warriors.
A Mycenaean fragment from Bogazkoy [Eine mykenische Scherbe aus Boǧazköy]
No full textAegean finds are rarely encountered in Central Anatolia, the heartland of the Hittite Empire. The few Aegean finds made at the Hittite capital of Boǧazköy recently were augmented by a sherd of a Mycenaean Kylix, dating to Late Helladic I1IA-B. The sherd was already found during the campaign of 1970 west of temple 1 in the Lower City, but was only recognized in 2002. While the sherd itself is not remarkable, the fact that it represents the first Mycenaean vessel from Boǧazköy calls for attention. Together with the already well known Mycenaean vessels from Masat Höyük and newly discovered Mycenaean sherds from Kusakli near Sivas it challenges the previously held view that the assumed absence of Aegean finds in Central Anatolia could be explained by a trade embargo that the Hittite Empire had imposed on the Mycenaean World.
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
