    The aim of this study is to provide extensive information regarding the results of the archaeological research carried out during the autumn of 2017 in Coada Izvorului locality, Măneşti commune (Prahova County). Within less than two weeks, the Prahova County Museum of History and Archaeology excavated using mechanised equipment an earth mound with a height of 1.2 m and a diameter of 35 m. It contained a total number of three graves, two of which were prehistoric, dating from the first half of the 3rd millennium BC, while the third was assigned to the Turkic nomad populations from the beginning of the 2nd millennium AD. No grave goods were found in the prehistoric burials, however the later one had two iron items, respectively an arrowhead and a ring, both of which were poorly preserved.Scopul acestui studiu este de a oferi informaţii extinse cu privire la rezultatele cercetărilor arheologice derulate în toamna anului 2017 în localitatea Coada Izvorului (com. Măneşti, jud. Prahova). În mai puţin de două săptămâni, o echipă de arheologi de la Muzeul Judeţean de Istorie şi Arheologie Prahova a săpat, cu mijloace mecanizate, un tumul de pământ, înalt de aproximativ 1,20 m şi cu diametrul de circa 35 m. În total au fost descoperite trei morminte, dintre care două preistorice, datate în prima jumătate a mileniului al III‐ lea î. Hr., și un al treilea atribuit populaţiilor turanice de la începutul mileniului al II‐ lea d. Hr. Mormintele preistorice nu au avut inventar, iar în cel turanic se aflau două piese din fier, respectiv un vârf de săgeată şi o verigă, ambele slab conservate.Frînculeasa Alin, Preda Bianca, Simalcsik Angela, Negrea Octav.

    This study aims to publish the results of the archaeological excavations carried out in 2012 in the Neoeneolithic site from Boldeşti-Scăieni, Seciu neighbourhood (Prahova County). The surface excavated in 2012 was small, comprised of two sections. Extensive research was performed at the site in 2009 ; the results were published in a monography and in several studies. Archaeological artefacts specific to the Starčevo-Criş culture, especially ceramics, but also an inhumation burial of a child were unearthed in 2012. Archaeozoological material was also found. An Eneolithic dwelling attributed to the Stoicani-Aldeni cultural aspect was found above the Early Neolithic habitation layer. Two radiocarbon dates were obtained from samples taken from the Neolithic layer. They are presented and analised in this paper in the broader context of the evolution of the Starčevo-Criş culture at the Lower Danube.În acest studiu ne-am propus publicarea rezultatelor cercetărilor arheologice derulate în anul 2012 în situl neoeneolitic din localitatea Boldeşti-Scăieni, cartier Seciu (jud. Prahova). În campania respectivă au fost derulate cercetări arheologice restrânse, fiind trasate două secţiuni. Săpături mai extinse au fost realizate în acest sit în anul 2009, rezultatele obţinute fiind deja valorificate atât monografic, cât şi într-o serie de studii. În anul 2012 au fost descoperite materiale arheologice specifice culturii Starčevo-Criş, în special ceramică, dar şi un mormânt de inhumaţie de subadult. De asemenea, a fost recuperat şi material faunistic. Deasupra depozitului de locuire din epoca neolitică timpurie au fost descoperite şi resturile unei locuinţe eneolitice atribuită aspectului cultural Stoicani-Aldeni. Au fost realizate şi două datări radiocarbon, probele fiind prelevate din nivelul de locuire neolitic, redate şi analizate în acest text în contextul mai larg al evoluţiei culturii Starčevo-Criş la Dunărea de Jos.Frînculeasa Alin, Preda Bianca, Bălășescu Adrian, Soficaru Andrei, Negrea Octav, Nica Tiberiu.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    Cercetări arheologice în cimitirul din epoca bronzului târziu de la Câmpina (jud. Prahova) – campaniile 2011 şi 2012 / Archaeological research in the Bronze Age cemetery at Câmpina (Prahova county) – campaigns 2011 şi 2012

    Archaeological research in the Bronze Age cemetery from Câmpina started in 2008. We published the first three archaeological campaigns in detail in a volume and synthetically in scientific studies, archaeological reports, catalogues and exhibition foldings. In this paper we aim to present the results of the archaeological research carried out in 2011 and 2012, completing for the interested ones the information already known. The research, that was initially a rescue one, consisted of five successive campaigns, from 2008 to 2012. We discovered 57 graves ; some of them already disturbed and isolated human bones coming from several individuals found in inhumation graves strongly affected by late medieval or recent complexes. We also identified a series of complexes similar to graves that contained pots or ceramic fragments, but without human bones. They seem to be symbolic graves. We investigated both inhumation and cremation graves. The predominant funerary rite is inhumation, covering about 80% of the total number of identified individuals. The grave inventories suggest the presence of elements specific to Noua and Monteoru cultures. Moreover, three inhumation graves contained pots decorated in a manner specific to Tei culture. Some cremation graves contained pots difficult to assign to a culture, but a series of correlations, analogies and other details concerning the rite and ritual (the typology of complexes, the presence of upside down pots, the sandy paste, the distribution within the plan etc.), show they were contemporary with the other graves. Radiocarbon dates and relative chronology elements indicate the evolution of this cemetery during the Late Bronze Age.Cercetările arheologice din cimitirul atribuit epocii bronzului identificat la Câmpina (Prahova) au debutat în anul 2008. Primele trei campanii arheologice (2008– 2010) au fost deja valorificate extins într-un volum, dar şi sintetic în articole ştiinţifice, rapoarte arheologice, cataloage şi pliante de expoziţii. În acest studiu ne-am propus publicarea rezultatelor cercetărilor arheologice din anii 2011 şi 2012, completând astfel pentru cei interesaţi pachetul de informaţii ce deja a văzut lumina tiparului. Cercetările ce au avut iniţial un caracter de salvare, s-au derulat în cinci campanii succesive în intervalul anilor 2008– 2012. Au fost descoperite 57 de morminte, câteva deranjate, resturi de oase umane izolate provenind de la mai mulţi indivizi ale căror morminte de inhumaţie au fost afectate de complexe medievale târzii sau recente. Tot în acest sit au fost identificate o serie de complexe asemănătoare unor morminte în care sunt prezente vase/ fragmente, dar lipsesc ori nu s-au conservat oasele umane. Acestea par a fi morminte simbolice. Au fost cercetate atât mormintele de inhumaţie cât şi de incineraţie. Ca rit de înmormântare predomină înhumarea ce acoperă din punct de vedere procentual aproape 80% din numărul total de indivizi identificaţi. Inventarul mormintelor semnalează prezenţa unor elemente specifice culturilor Noua şi Monteoru, iar în trei dintre mormintele de inhumaţie au fost descoperite vase decorate în manieră specifică culturii Tei. Câteva morminte de incineraţie au o ceramică ce deocamdată este mai greu de încadrat cultural, dar o serie de corelaţii, analogii şi alte detalii de rit şi ritual (tipologia complexelor, apariţia unor vase cu gura în jos, pasta nisipoasă, distribuţia în plan etc.) reflectă contemporaneitatea acestora cu celelalte complexe funerare. Datările radiocarbon şi elementele de cronologie relativă indică evoluţia acestui cimitir în etapa târzie a epocii bronzului.Frînculeasa Alin, Preda Bianca, Negrea Octav, Soficaru Andrei.

    Variations on the Author

    “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

    We 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 PDF
    We 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

    Turanici la Dunărea Inferioară – complexe cercetate recent în nordul Munteniei / Turanians at the Lower Danube – recently investigated contexts in the northern Wallachia

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to present a series of discoveries attributed to the Turkic nomadic populations (11th– 12th centuries), resulting from archaeological research conducted in 2018 and 2019 in several burial mounds placed in the localities of Târgșoru Nou and Inotești from Prahova County, as well as Lunca from Buzău county. It includes descriptions of the investigated archaeological features, the results of the anthropological and archaeozoological determinations as well as those of the physico-chemical investigations of some metal artefacts, and absolute chronology dates. Given that artefacts were part of the archaeological features investigated, we briefly present information regarding their analogies and occurrence. These discoveries highlight a time period which is otherwise scarcely known in this region and at the same time add weight to other materials already published during past years.Articolul prezintă o serie de descoperiri atribuite populațiilor turanice (sec. XI– XII), provenind din cercetări realizate în anii 2018 și 2019 în tumuli dispuși în localitățile Târgșoru Nou, Inotești din județul Prahova, respectiv Lunca în județul Buzău. Sunt descrise complexele arheologice cercetate, sunt redate rezultatele analizelor antropologice, arheozoologice, ale investigațiilor fizico-chimice asupra unor piese din metal ; totodată sunt prezentate date de cronologie absolută. Având în vedere că au fost descoperite și piese în inventarul complexelor arheologice cercetate, am inclus, sintetic, și informații privind analogiile și ocurența acestora. Aceste descoperiri contribuie la conturarea epocii într-o zonă mai puțin cunoscută și în același timp se adaugă la alte materiale deja publicate în ultima perioadă.Frînculeasa Alin, Munteanu Roxana, Garvăn Daniel, Dinu Cătălin, Negrea Octav, Preda-Bălănică Bianca, Grigoraș Laurențiu, Simalcsik Angela, Bejenaru Luminiţa, Cristea-Stan Daniela, Constantin Florin, Petruneac Marta, Focşăneanu Marin, Sava Tiberiu, Dima Andreea, Sava Gabriela, Ilie Maria.
