CONSTRUCTION OF A GEOGRAPHICAL DATABASE OF CLASSICAL-ARCHAIC MANUFACTURES, FOUND IN THE SURVEY OF THE GREEK COLONY HIMERA (SICILY, ITALY). APPLICATIO…
2012
Abstract. This research has analysed the distribution of ceramic finds from classical and archaic ages in the territory of the ancient Greek colony Himera, a town situated near Termini Imerese, in the province of Palermo (Sicily, Italy), which has been the site of systematic excavations carried out by the University of Palermo since the Sixties. The study of about 1500 ceramic fragments, dated back to the 6th-5th century B.C., has allowed to develop an approach to the understanding of the role played by ceramics in the relations between different societies and cultures. Besides the most common analysis factors for the ceramic manufactures, such as their production and distribution, a major …
FOR A CONSCIUOS FRUITION OF THE CULTURAL HERITAGE OF ANCIENT NOTO (SICILY). EFIAN PROJECT AS OPPORTUNITY FOR VALORISATION
2017
Abstract. The archaeological site of Ancient Noto is all that remains of one of the most interesting and important cities in the Est part of Sicily. Architecture and political life made Noto a point of reference for the island, expecially in XVI and XVII century, before it was destroyed by a devastating earthquake in 1963. A general project of safeguard, together with archaeological excavations, could hand a great amount of information, archaeological finds, pieces of architecture, that are useful to understand the site, known as a "Sicilian Pompei". Our intervention has the aim to describe the importance of EFIAN (Experimental Fruition Ingenious Ancient Noto). The project is carried out as…
Spatiotemporal hotspots analysis for exploring the evolution of diseases: An application to oto-laryngopharyngeal diseases
2013
Abstract View references (14) This paper presents a spatiotemporal analysis of hotspot areas based on the Extended Fuzzy C-Means method implemented in a geographic information system. This method has been adapted for detecting spatial areas with high concentrations of events and tested to study their temporal evolution. The data consist of georeferenced patterns corresponding to the residence of patients in the district of Naples (Italy) to whom a surgical intervention to the oto-laryngopharyngeal apparatus was carried out between the years 2008 and 2012
Los mapas geopolíticos de la Unesco: entre la distinción y la diferencia están las asimetrías. El éxito (exótico) del patrimonio inmaterial
2013
Immaterial Heritage is a political category that is both confusing and contradictory. The democratization and universalization of Cultural Heritage have made the latter more profuse and have led to its increased importance. Even so, and despite its current levels of protagonism, its construction responds not only to outmoded parameters but also to a global exercise in apparent symmetry. In other words, things do not appear to have changed significantly from Colonialism to the new Imperialism. So it is safe to say that we are now privy to a “re-christening” of what was formerly referred to as “folklore”. And in this change in the conception of heritage we have gone from putting the accent on…
Atlas of the Baltic languages: from idea to pilot project
2015
Atl as of the B a ltic l a ngu a ge s : from idea to pilot project Dialectologists from Latvian Language Institute of the University of Latvia and the Department of Language History and Dialectology of the Institute of the Lithuanian Language, have developed a proposal for a joint project entitled, The Atlas of the Baltic Languages, which is intended to demonstrate the close kinship of these two Baltic languages. A pilot project, supported by a grant from the University of Latvia and Directorate for the Millenium of Lithuania has been carried out between 2006 and 2008 to determine what the form and eventual content of such an atlas might be. In 2009 a summary of work carried out on the pilo…
VALUTAZIONI METRICHE DI PIATTAFORME APR PER RILIEVI E MODELLAZIONI 3D
2015
L’articolo descrive le esperienze condotte per la valutazione metrica di blocchi aerei acquisiti con differenti sistemi APR utilizzati nell’ambito del rilievo di BB.CC.. Il lavoro è stato svolto su due siti che differiscono per estensione e caratteristiche morfologiche utilizzando due diverse piattaforme APR, un sistema multi-rotore e un sistema ad ala fissa.
Metodologia GIS per la valutazione ambientale strategica
2007
Il problema di non avere un riferimento normativo nazionale, comporta che le leggi regionali che implicano VAS si differenzino a livello di metodologie, linguaggi e contenuti. La ricerca illustrata di seguito muove proprio da tali premesse: sulla base di un’analisi nazionale è risultato che le regioni Emilia Romagna, Toscana, Lombardia e Piemonte hanno maturato un livello di standardizzazione tale da renderle ottimi esempi in vista di future applicazioni dedicate allo sviluppo del territorio integrate con la valutazione ambientale.
La intensidad de lluvia en entornos mediterráneos. Valores extremos según la escala de observación
2015
Este trabajo estudia la estructura de las intensidades máximas de lluvia a diferentes escalas de observación, entre los 5 minutos y las 24 horas, en la Confederación Hidrográfica del Júcar, en base a datos del SAIH (1994-2007). Aborda además la influencia de los factores de altitud y distancia al mar, así como de la exposición del territorio: litoral-interior y compartimentación general del relieve. Los resultados muestran una gran dependencia de la intensidad en relación con la escala de observación, una influencia significativa de la distancia al mar y dos patrones de intensidad.
Análisis comparativo de conflictos territoriales: el caso de Poblats Maritims (Valencia, España) y el distrito Sud-Ouest (Montreal, Canadá)
2014
This paper makes a comparative analysis of territorial conflicts in two districts in two different cities: Valencia in Spain and Montreal in Canada. These two industrial districts are experiencing a deep physical transformation, which has led numerous protests and locational conflicts To do that, a systematic database of conflicts appeared in the last 15 years in each district (Poblats Maritims district in Valencia and Sud-Ouest in Montreal) was set up. We establish finally some interesting conclusions about the relationship between the emergence
De yngste barna og tingene deres – en ANT-analyse av lek i småbarnsavdelinger
2017
Artikkelen presenterer en mikro-etnografisk undersøkelse av barns forhold til tingene i to småbarnsavdelinger i norske barnehager. Hensikten er å forstå hvordan barns relasjoner til ting virker inn på deres mulighet til deltagelse og sosial posisjonering i gruppen. Undersøkelsen er basert på Aktør-Nettverk-Teori som vektlegger tingenes betydning som agens i sosiale nettverk og tingenes funksjon som forlengelse av barnas kropper. Undersøkelsen viser at tingene har betydning som legitim inngangsbillett til deltagelse i lekegrupper og at tingenes innbyrdes hierarkiske orden bidrar i å uttrykke den sosiale orden mellom barna som inngår i relasjon med dem. The article presents a micro-ethnograph…
