DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe first international meeting of the Archaeozoology of Southwest Asia and Adjacent Areas (ASWA) working group of the International Council for Archaeozoology (ICAZ) took place at the University of Groningen in 1992. Ever since, ASWA meetings have served as an inspiring gathering for those conducting archaeozoological research in Southwest Asia, the Eastern Mediterranean, North Africa, Central Asia and the Caucasus. This book contains sixteen papers presented at the 12th ASWA meeting hosted at its inaugural institution, the University of Groningen, Groningen Institute of Archaeology, as a continuation of the usual series and to celebrate the career of Dr. Hijlke Buitenhuis, associated member and alumnus of the institute, co-organizer of the first ASWA meeting.Like other ASWA proceedings before it, this volume is full of novel theoretical and methodological approaches and new research results, tackling a large variety of topics, from the geometric morphometrics of sheep in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic Period to Predynastic fishing in the Upper Nile, to the biogeography of hartebeest and hemione, and covering the vast region stretching between Hungary in the west and Azerbaijan in the east. The volume also features an opening article by ASWA founding member M.A. Zeder on the future of archaeozoology in the region. In honor of Dr. Hijlke Buitenhuis, his full bibliography is featured herein.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe report is structured so as to achieve three objectives: 1 to introduce the reader to the security context in which HSD operates; 2 to provide an overview of where HSD stands and what its assets are; and 3 to show directions for development of the cluster and opportunities to reinforce its mission: to bring together triple-helix-partners with the aim to achieve synergies, bring economic benefits to the Netherlands as a hub for security innovation, and, ultimately, to generate security and economic benefits for society as a whole. The first part of the report starts out by describing what is meant by security, how thinking about security has evolved, and how ever more vital aspects of our daily lives have become part of the security realm. It then briefly surveys some key themes of security, showing how they are interlinked. Subsequently, we survey how these various security themes are currently incorporated in our national security strategies, and reflect on the priorities that are set by the government, but also within civil society, the business world and among citizens. The second part focuses on The Hague Security Delta: what makes it well-equipped to deal with the security challenges that were described in the first part? Where can it make the most meaningful contributions and produce the most value-added, and how is it positioning itself to capitalise on existing and potential opportunities? Subsequently, we investigate some of these opportunities by focusing on how other security clusters have evolved and by highlighting some innovation projects and initiatives that HSD partners and others are engaged in. Finally, some of the highestpotential projects are highlighted that can help consolidate or expand the reach of HSD, and help to improve security provision in a way that adds value to our economy and society alike. The conclusion will recap the objectives of HSD and provide some highlights from its 2015 agenda.

Embracing the salt marsh

ISBN-13: 9493194493
DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom a modern-day perspective, it may seem odd that people should have chosen to dwell in the open salt-marsh landscape along the Wadden Sea coast. While the beauty of the salt marshes is widely acknowledged, the idea of living there seems to suggest struggle and misery. Yet the salt-marsh settlers, dwelling on their settlement mounds or terps, did not just ‘survive' or ‘get by', but actually managed to live a good life, by embracing this marshy world and its peculiarities. This collection of papers focuses on foraging, farming and food preparation in the context of the salt-marsh environment. The various contributions celebrate the career and work of Annet Nieuwhof, who has been an inspirational colleague and great friend to many of us. She passionately embraced terp research, always actively stimulating cooperation across disciplines as well as national borders. Reflecting some of Annet's wide-ranging interests, the present volume is dedicated to her in friendship and gratitude.
Reconstructing vegetation diversity in coastal landscapes

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis dissertation delves into the reconstruction of past vegetation at the most detailed level. It is not the objective to focus solely on the developments in vegetation over time, but to create an image of the landscape that must have been visible to prehistoric people. Landscape and vegetation form a major starting point for the opportunities available in a certain area for a broad scale of human activities including grazing of livestock, cultivating crops and collecting wild plants. The majority of the analyses are based on seeds and fruits (botanical macroremains) from two Dutch prehistoric regions. These are the small river system in the present Flevopolder, home to settlements of the so-called Swifterbant Culture in the Neolithic period (4300 ? 4000 BC), and the Frisian-Groningen terp region in the period prior to the endikements (700 BC ? c. 1200 AD).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFlanders experienced large inflows of immigrants over the past decade, coming from an increasingly diverse range of countries, with growth rates outpacing the Netherlands, France and Germany, as well as Belgium as a whole. While integration outcomes have improved in recent years, some of the core indicators remain unfavourable in international comparison, especially for non-EU immigrant women, refugees, and youth with migrant parents.
