The Distribution and Chronology of Trading Equipment in Present-Day Latvia in the Tenth to Thirteenth Centuries

2017

This article brings together the main research findings of recent years relating to tenth to thirteenth-century trading equipment from present-day Latvia. Finds of collapsible scales and weights from all regions of Latvia have been mapped and investigated. These include finds from archaeological sites in the Zemgale and Kurzeme regions that have previously not been extensively analysed. Issues relating to the chronology of the scales and weights are discussed. The main trade routes and the dynamics of trade contacts are determined, based on the distribution of the material in different regions. Key words: trade routes, chronology, scales, weights.

A Holocene relative sea-level database for the Baltic Sea

2021

Highlights: • A first standardized and publicly available Holocene relative sea-level database for the Baltic Sea is presented. • The database holds 1099 revised data points with an estimation of vertical and chronological uncertainties. • Negative RSL tendencies prevail over the positive and complex tendencies in the Baltic Sea Basin. • Mid-Holocene RSL highstand occurred around 7.5–6.5 ka BP being consistent with the end of the final melting of the LIS. • The contribution of ice loading in the eastern Baltic Sea Basin is likely overestimated in the ICE-5G and ICE-6G_C models. Abstract: We present a compilation and analysis of 1099 Holocene relative shore-level (RSL) indicators located aro…

NOTES ON A STATUE FROM THE COLLECTIONS OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF UNION FROM ALBA IULIA

2016

This study proposes to re-evaluate a marble statue from the old collections of the National Museum of Union Alba Iulia. It was discovered by A. Cserni during excavations carried out at the Palace of the Governors of Roman Dacia, in 1898. It has been repeatedly published by Á. Hekler and Al. Diaconescu. While the latter author established dating and iconographic prototype of the statue, we believe that further details as discovery place and context, depiction, iconographic attribution and role of this work of art can be offered. Presence of a follower at the feet of the divinity, more precisely the right foot of a character – child, conveys us the idea of depiction of Eros, god of love. Usua…

From Historical Silk Fabrics to Their Interactive Virtual Representation and 3D Printing

2020

The documentation, dissemination, and enhancement of Cultural Heritage is of great relevance. To that end, technological tools and interactive solutions (e.g., 3D models) have become increasingly popular. Historical silk fabrics are nearly flat objects, very fragile and with complex internal geometries, related to different weaving techniques and types of yarns. These characteristics make it difficult to properly document them, at the yarn level, with current technologies. In this paper, we bring a new methodology to virtually represent such heritage and produce 3D printouts, also making it highly interactive through the tool Virtual Loom. Our work involves sustainability from different per…

The Averinga’s Edicola and the Cult of Water in Palermo. From Knowledge to Valorisation

2018

Si descrive un approccio multidisciplinare allo studio di un singolare monumento storico, l’Edicola dell’Averinga, che versa attualmente in gravi condizioni di degrado; questa costruzione fu realizzata nel 1587 dal Senato Palermitano a protezione delle acque della sorgente Ayn Rutah (nome arabo di Averinga) che sgorgavano proprio al suo interno e che da qui venivano raccolte e incanalate verso i fertili giardini, le abitazioni che si trovavano in prossimità delle mura cittadine e alcune delle più importanti fontane della città storica. La più antica descrizione a noi pervenuta della zona in cui è sita l'Edicola, la cosiddetta depressione Danisinni, appartiene al geografo iracheno Al-Qaim Mu…

“Il disegno è l’arte di ben rappresentare”. Architettura, disegno e rappresentazione

2023

Come l’autore del volume Lillo Barberi sottolinea nell’Introduzione, l’intento dello studio monografico risiede nel «valorizzare al meglio le prerogative della rappresentazione architettonica in assonometria» proponendo «un’impostazione esecutiva che non sconvolge le modalità proiettive, ma che agevola le operazioni grafiche risolutive del disegno assonometrico e per questo viene denominata diretta». Anche in questo caso, si potrebbe affermare che, mediante il tema della rappresentazione dell’architettura, si affronti e si proponga un fare gnoseologico fondato sull’aspetto filologico dell’anagignoskein, ovvero la “conoscenza del conosciuto”, riferendoci all’espressione formulata da August B…

Recensione a Gianni Braghieri Architettura rappresentazione fotografia

2008

Gianni Braghieri Architettura rappresentazione fotografia Clueb, Bologna 2008 formato 19,5 x 24,5 pagine 247 prezzo euro 40,00 I testi contenuti nel libro di Braghieri sono scritti da quanti hanno vissuto un'esperienza di vita e di lavoro in comune con l'autore, o conducono approfondimenti che da quella esperienza traggono le ragioni. Essi delineano i caratteri dell'architettura di Braghieri, ne segnalano la spinta etica, le premesse e gli sviluppi coerenti, la capacità di opposizione ai nuovi e «falsi profeti». Mostrano un percorso di rinuncia al protagonismo, la capacità di assumere come «propria tradizione» un repertorio formale elaborato e mai tradito, perché non si crede all'obbligo de…

Artefatto_Paesaggio

2009

L'artefatto prevede un progetto, una finalità e conseguentemente un intelletto capace di attività creativa e immaginata. Il binomio artefatto/paesaggio, se facciamo riferimento alle nozioni di paesaggio date da Rosario Assurto e Lucio Gambi, abbraccia una molteplicità di aspetti che riguardano l'architettura ma anche la forma, l'arte, la mente e la rappresentazione.

Multilanguage Semantic Interoperability in Distributed Applications

2013

JOSI is a software framework that tries to simplify the development of such kinds of applications both by providing the possibility of working on models for representing such semantic information and by offering some implementations of such models that can be easily used by software developers without any knowledge about semantic models and languages. This software library allows the representation of domain models through Java interfaces and annotations and then to use such a representation for automatically generating an implementation of domain models in different programming languages (currently Java and C++). Moreover, JOSI supports the interoperability with other applications both by …
