The Southern Frontier of the Meroitic State: The View from Jebel Moya
No full textThe site of Jebel Moya, excavated in the early twentieth century, represents arguably the largest pastoral mortuary complex in Africa. Jebel Moya is resituated in relation to the neighbouring Meroitic-era agro-pastoral settlements and the only known Meroitic trading station (Sennar) in the southern Gezira Plain, Sudan. It is the first time that the known localities in the southern Gezira and southern Meroitic cemeteries have been compared, in an attempt to elucidate the different social organisation reflected in mortuary assemblages between the core and the periphery of the Meroitic State. New questions are posed for (1) the applicability of mortuary theory to pastoral cemeteries, and (2) the nature of zones of interaction on the frontier of the Meroitic State, through the application of new statistical and spatial analyses of the mortuary assemblages and the site’s reinterpretation as a pastoral, instead of an agro-pastoral, mortuary complex
Jebel Moya (Sudan): new dates from a mortuary complex at the southern Meroitic frontier
No full textThis paper proposes a new chronology for the burial complex at Jebel Moya, south-central Sudan. It reassesses the body of evidence from Sir Henry Wellcome's original 1911–1914 excavations in order to place the site within a firm chronological framework by: (a) applying an attribute-based approach to discern discrete pottery assemblages; and (b) applying initial OSL dates to facilitate the reliable dating of this site for the first time. Jebel Moya is re-interpreted as a burial complex situated on the southern periphery of the late Meroitic state, and its potential to serve as a chronological and cultural reference point for future studies in south-central and southern Sudan is outlined

Research fronts in library and information science in Spain
No full textPublications and author cocitations in library and information science in Spain during the period from 1985 to 1994 were analyzed as a measure of the structure, specificity and composition of research fronts in this country. A cocitation matrix developed from an ad hoc database was subjected to cluster analysis, multidimensional scaling and principal components analysis, The resulting cocitation maps identified specific areas of r~search and their knowledge bases. We inferred the degree of consolidation of the discipline of library and information science, and of the subdisciplines informetrics, librarianship and university affiliation, from the research activities revealed. In this respect, the conclusions from the study show the existence of several research fronts in Spanish literature the contents of which are in most cases difficult to compare with those in other countries. A lesser degree of maturity of research in this field is shown

Fuentes renacentistas de las geometrías de Juan Pérez de Moya
No full textJuan Pérez de Moya became known in the Iberian Peninsula because of the publication of his Arithmetica Practica, y Speculativa; however, he was also the author of an interesting geometric work which has not yet been disseminated. In this article we focus on the characteristics, evolution and methodology of the texts which Moya devoted to geometry, revealing the goals he intended to reach with each of them, the subjects he dealt with, and the works he used as references. The comparison we established with some of the best known mathematical works of the Renaissance allowed us to identify the main sources of Moya, and to evaluate the extent of their impact on the preparation of Moya’s texts. The revisions implemented by Moya in his geometries, until reaching an effective compromise between practice and theory, reaffirms him as a practical geometer with theoretical concerns, and as the main disseminator of Euclid’s Elements in XVIth century Spain.Juan Pérez de Moya, conocido en la Península Ibérica por la publicación de la Arithmetica Practica, y speculativa, fue también el autor de un interesante trabajo geométrico, aún no suficientemente conocido. En este artículo nos centramos en las características, evolución y metodología de los textos de geometría de Moya para dar a conocer los objetivos que quería alcanzar con cada uno de ellos, los temas que desarrolla y los trabajos que le han servido como referencia. La comparación que hemos establecido con algunas de las mejores obras matemáticas del Renacimiento nos ha permitido identificar las principales fuentes de Moya y evaluar el impacto que tuvieron en la preparación de sus textos. Las revisiones que Moya introdujo en su obra para llegar a un compromiso efectivo entre los aspectos teórico y práctico lo reafirman como un geómetra práctico preocupado con la teoría y como el principal divulgador de los Elementos de Euclides en la España del siglo XVI
