Diagonal ear lobe crease and atherosclerosis : a review of the medical literature and dental implications
2011
In Spain a significant number of individuals die from atherosclerotic disease of the coronary and carotid arteries without having classic risk factors and prodromal symptoms. The diagonal ear lobe crease (DELC) has been characterized in the medical literature as a surrogate marker which can identify high risk patients having occult atherosclerosis. This topic however has not been examined in either the medical or dental literature emanating from Spain. The majority of clinical, angiography and postmortem reports support the premise that DELC is a valuable extravascular physical sign able to distinguish some patients at risk of succumbing to atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries. A minori…

An imperial town in a time of transition. Life, environment, and decline of early Byzantine Caričin Grad
2016
The site of Caricin Grad in south-eastern Serbia – currently listed on UNESCO’s tentative list – has been the subject of archaeological investigations for more than 100 years. For the last decades it has been the focus of a joint project of the Archaeological Institute in Belgrade and the Ecole Francaise de Rome. A reconstruction of the economic, environmental and social history of the city is the main objective of a cooperative project started in 2014 with the Romisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum Mainz. The remains of the early Byzantine complex of Caricin Grad show the features of a city built in the classical, Hellenistic-Roman tradition, combined with ecclesiastical Christian architecture…

Reconstructing Bronze Age diets and farming strategies at the early Bronze Age sites of La Bastida and Gatas (southeast Iberia) using stable isotope …
2020
The El Argar society of the Bronze Age in the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula (2200–1550 cal BCE) was among the first complex societies in Europe. Its economy was based on cereal cultivation and metallurgy, it was organized hierarchically, and successively expanded its territory. Most of the monumentally fortified settlements lay on steeply sloped mountains, separated by fertile plains, and allowed optimal control of the area. Here, we explore El Argar human diets, animal husbandry strategies, and food webs using stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis of charred cereal grains as well as human and animal bone collagen. The sample comprised 75 human individuals from the sites of La Ba…
Le trasformazioni urbane di Agrigento dai primi decenni del XX secolo agli anni della speculazione edilizia
2018
Come mostra una lunga tradizione di studi di storia urbana, i Catasti storici di un tipo geometrico descrittivo sono oggi proposti come rappresentazioni affidabili di una reale condizione dei luoghi in un determinato momento storico. Nel caso della città di Agrigento, lo studio del Catasto redatto nei primi anni trenta del Novecento, opportunamente supportato dall'aiuto di altre fonti, è la linea di partenza di un itinerario ricostruttivo delle trasformazioni più rilevanti del periodo post-bellico che modificheranno pesantemente la struttura urbana della città, facendo di Agrigento un caso di studio emblematico di quella che era, più in generale, la grave situazione urbanistica dell'intero …
Epigrafía funeraria nazarí: el epitafio de al-Yanaštī (835/1436)
2016
Este artículo analiza la epigrafía funeraria nazarí y establece la estructura de los epitafios andalusíes conservados datables entre los siglos XIII y XV. Se estudia también una pieza arqueológica cuyo exacto origen se desconoce, aunque se puede deducir que apareció en la región de Granada. La piedra se usó en el siglo XV para grabar el epitafio de un hombre musulmán cuyo texto se conserva completo en siete líneas de escritura árabe cursiva en relieve. Formó parte de la colección del Duque de Santa Lucía y hoy integra el lapidario árabe del Museo Arqueológico Nacional (Nº. Inv. 1962/34/15).
Aspetti e momenti della formazione giovanile di Luigi Pirandello e di Giuseppe Schirò
2020
The newly retrieved correspondence between Pirandello and Schirò helps us reconstruct the relationship between the two young writers, both protagonists of a time rich in events. Of no less importance were their passionate love stories with two young women by the same name: Lina Pirandello. The first Lina was the cousin of the writer whereas the other the sister of the future playwright. The background was that of the Palermo of the liberty style at the end of the 19th century while the cultural context was dominated by the great and renowned Sicilian figures of the time. In the second part of the essay, the author considers the literary activity shared by the two young men. As to the early …
L’amore condiviso, l’Arte. Sulla formazione giovanile di Giuseppe Schirò e di Luigi Pirandello (1884-1890)
2021
The retrived epistolary of Pirandello and Schirò helps reconstruct the relationship between the two young writers, both protagonists of different and private love affairs. The backdrop against which their lives unfolded were the Classical College Vittorio Emanuele where they met; the Palermo of the Liberty style of the end of the 19th century and the cultural context dominated by reknowned and famous Sicilian intellectuals such as their professors Mario Villareale and Pier Giacinto Giozza, or the poets Mario Rapisardi and Eliodoro Lombardi, and other outstanding figures such as Giuseppe Pipitone Federico, Giuseppe Pitrè and Salvatore Salomone-Marino. This third part of the essay considers t…
