This thesis demonstrates results of a comparison of new published craniological data of the East Manych catacomb culture population (Middle Bronze Age, North-Western Caspian region), of the funeral rites and the artifacts’ assortments in the burials of this culture and the types of decoration of incense burners - the special ceramic vessel. At least the more frequent appearance of incense burners in burials of individuals with an artificial deformation of the head (both men and women) is detected. Any other combinations of craniological and archaeological features are doubtful. The comparison of incense burners’s decoration and attributes funeral rite demonstrates the correlation of point type of décor and more frequent use of bronze knives and piercers.

Full textAbstract:
In the period of the 19th – beginning of the 21th century in the study of mythology three paradigms of the study of mythogenesis have consistently dominated – historical, non-historical and historical-cognitive. The historical-cognitive paradigm is based on the latest scientific results in the field of archeology, anthropology and cognitive science. The modern model of anthropogenesis assumes the existence of general regularities of development of three types of Homo – Homo sapiens, Neanderthals and Denisovans. There are reasons that are not only Homo sapiens, but also the Neanderthals and Denisovans had high cognitive capabilities and signs of modern human behavior. The most important foundations of mythogenesis are the functioning of language and the activity of the imagination. All three populations of ancient mankind reached a cognitive minimum, which opened the way to mythogenesis. Signs of mythogenesis are clearly recorded no later than the time of the transition from the Middle to Upper Paleolithic, during the Early Aurignacian, but the beginning of this process goes back to an earlier period.

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION The stone monuments named as “Orhon” inscriptions located in Middle Asia are considered the first written Turkish findings. Our aim was to discuss the contents and physical appearance of the monuments according to the andrological perspective. METHODS These inscriptions were composed of three stone monuments built in the years 720-735 AD, in honor of three Khagans (Ruling leaders). RESULTS Although the theme of the writings emphasizes the male-dominant ruling style of the antique Middle Asian migratory tribes, we claim that the most interesting point was that the phallus had a secret role in the perspective of the stone monuments. CONCLUSION The trilogy of power, state authority, and erection was monumentalized in 8th-century inscriptions. The signs of Andrology should be sought in history, archeology, and art to expand the esthetic horizon of modern medical sciences.

The article was prepared for the anniversary of R. D. Goldina and touches upon the issues of the methodology of scientific search in archeology. The positive role of the researcher in the discussion about the chronology of early medieval antiquities, which was held in 1976 in Leningrad, is noted. Possible negative consequences of using alien sketches of archaeological material in scientific research are shown. Modern research (B. V. Rauschenbach) has shown that visual perception of space is a joint work of the eye + brain system, and not of the eye alone. When working with a certain kind of archaeological sources, the researcher's brain must be “trained” to recognize significant signs of this particular kind of sources. The stability of the chronological scheme of R. D. Goldina is predetermined by absolute knowledge of the material that was obtained as a result of her own author's excavations. Methodology for the analysis of archaeological material, developed by R. D. Goldina, is at the heart of many modern researches.

Full textAbstract:
The interpretation of cities on film in societal (film) context is not a mimesis, but rather a model utilised in production of meanings that functions on the basis of signs organised in a visual language. As these meanings are produced within culture and history, cities on film are the products of societal (politically motivated) knowledge, language structures, open texts in societal and cultural fields that, through power, utilising productive network that pervades society, represents a certain system of values and, as one in the system of political, cultural, scientific, art texts, exhibits regimes of social identity forms an archeology of knowledge. The interpretations of cities on film from the standpoint of cultural studies indicated that the configurations of cities (and modern architecture) outside of its phenomenology are not confronted with the usual postulations of binary oppositions, on which the majority of interpretative traditions are based, but rather that they serve to achieve the fulfillment of cultural roles, and that they are open semiotic fields by which one community produces a desirable (moving) image of oneself.

The article describes the documents from collections of the scientific library of the East Crimean Historical and Cultural Museum-Reserve published in Crimea during the Civil War of 1917–1922. These documents are book monuments as copies published in the important period of Russian history in the first quarter of the XX century in accordance with the sociovalue criterion. Publications are considered both as objects for the scientific study of the documentary sources themselves, and from the point of view of potential exhibits of the museum exposition. The publications allow for the most complete and widespread coverage of one of the most complex and controversial moments in the history of Russia. The historical conditions of the functioning of the national economy and certain aspects of social life, reflected in the sources studied, are examined. Among them are the publishing industry, public education, museums, the activities of the system of internal affairs bodies and local self-government. Considerable attention is paid to the study of local history publications, reflecting the development of history and archeology of the indicated period and containing valuable information on the history of Crimea. A number of brochures are presented, which methodological recommendations for teaching individual academic disciplines in a unified labor school. Educational and practical publications occupy a significant place among the analyzed documents. They contain excerpts from the works of ancient Roman authors published in Latin and serve as readers for the study of the classical Latin language in the gymnasium. The content and physical safety of publications, their attributive features, are described: book signs, labels, handwritten notes, autographs are described as a result of historical and bibliographical analysis.

AbstractThe Quran is the Holy book that is a revelation from God to guide humanity. The Quran has many chapters and verses concerning sciences. This study aimed to explore the content of the Quran using exegesis and all of its components as the main tools to comprehend the Quran. This was a qualitative historic-factual study based on the notion of Tommy Dazwir Paja Putra regarding the scientific miracle of chapters and verses numbers of the Quran. The results show that the numbers of the chapters and verses regarding humans (the prophets and their followers, devout persons, and the ungodly) or things in nature indicate of object location or the object properties. In conclusion, the Quran has scientific signs related to the various branch of sciences such as geography, astronomy, biology, chemistry, archeology, history, paleontology, and other sciences. AbstrakAl-Qur’an adalah kitab suci yang diturunkan Allah swt sebagai pedoman hidup umat manusia. Salah satu kandungan al-Qur’an adalah berkaitan tentang ilmu pengetahuan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menggali kandungan-kandungan al-Qur’an yang menjadi pedoman kehidupan. Oleh karenanya, ilmu tafsir dengan segala perangkatnya merupakan ilmu utama untuk dapat memahami kandungan al-Qur’an. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kualitatif yang bersifat historis-faktual, terhadap pemikiran tokoh Tommy Dazwir Paja Putra tentang kemukjizatan ilmiah nomor urut surat dan ayat al-Qur’an. Dari hasil penelitian disimpulkan bahwa al-Qur’an manakala berbicara tentang objek-objek di alam seperti objek manusia (para Nabi dan kaumnya, orang-orang shaleh dan orang-orang durhaka), maupun benda-benda di alam, maka ternyata nomor ayat dan nomor surat tersebut sebahagian memberi petunjuk tentang lokasi objek dan sebahagian lagi memberi petunjuk tentang sifat-sifat objek. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa al-Qur’an mengandung isyarat ilmiah yang terkait dengan banyak cabang ilmu seperti geografi, astronomi, biologi, kimia, arkeologi, sejarah palentologi dan sebagainya. Kata Kunci: Al-Qur’an, Nomor Ayat, Nomor Surat, Kemukjizatan ilmiah.

Full textAbstract:
The materials of bone processing from the Small Hillfort of Horodsk (the Korostyshiv Region of the Zhytomyr Oblast) stored in the Institute of Archeology of NAS of Ukraine are published in the paper. The analysis of the products, technique of manufacture and level of development of bone-carving craft is provided.
Bone artefacts include the completed products, blanks and bone raw material with traces of processing. Bone artifacts come from the cultural layer and the objects dated to two periods: the 12th — first half of the 13th centuries and the second half of 13th—14th centuries.
The composite bilateral comb, socketed arrowhead, fragment of the toggle clasp, two products of tubular bones (bird and animal bones) and the amulet from fish vertebra with the drilled hole could be undoubtedly dated back to the 12th — the first half of 13th centuries. Most likely we also can date to this period the amulet of fang of predator with a hole at one end which comes from the cultural layer.
According to the conditions of find and some analogies the keel-like arrowtip with a splay flat stem, three end parts of knife handles and the hemispherical button could be considered the products of the second half of the second half of 13th—14th centuries. The find from Horodsk confirms the possibility of manufacture of this type of buttons in Rus in the post-Mongol period.
In addition to the completed products the traces of antler processing in the form of scattered deer antlers and semi-finished products were found. The whole complex of bone and antler artefacts (small number of products and the lack of objects with signs of bone-carving workshops) testifies to the possibility of existence of bone-carving handicraft in the hill-fort only as auxiliary craft.

Full textAbstract:
The analysis of the ornament is the key issue in the studies of the applied decorative art. Nevertheless, the principal points pertaining to the nature of ornament, its expressivity, semantics, compositional principles and cultural value, have only been covered intermittently. This is primarily due to the disengagement of the various academic fields involved in the studies of ornament: art history, cultural anthropology, ethnography, archeology, etc. It seems important to synthesize the methods and approaches as well as set up the basis for developing the general principles for the studies of ornament, that would take into account all its various aspects. The definition of ornament through its decorative function does not encompass its essential features: rhythm, meter, and symmetry. Ornament can be considered as a strategy of visualizing rhythm and can be regarded as a specific art form. Apart from the formal trend, based on systematization of ornaments, the approaches to ornament as the basis of ethnocultural reconstructions play a prominent part. Studies concerning the semantics of ornament offer a whole range of opinions, but the widespread notion that ornament is a set of signs and symbols calls for a critical reappraisal. At the same time, ornament plays an important part in the process of intercultural and intracultural communications on the level of signal and index, being a special kind of “art-rhythm”. The interdisciplinary approach opens a much broader range of ideas concerning the options for studying ornaments and offers solutions for subsequent research. One of the most promising possibilities is the comprehensive and cross-cultural analysis of ornament as the element of a communication system, based on the search for the links between the development of the ornamental traditions and styles as well as the developments in the other spheres of human culture.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to show how the documentation movement associated with the utopian thinkers Paul Otlet and Henri La Fontaine relied on patent offices as well as the documents most closely associated with this institutional setting – the patents themselves – as central to the formation of the document category. The main argument is that patents not only were subjected to and helped construct, but also in fact engineered the development of technoscientific order during 1895–1937. Design/methodology/approach The paper draws on an interdisciplinary approach to intellectual property, document theory and insights from media archeology. Focused on the historical period 1895–1937, this study allows for an analysis that encapsulates and accounts for change in a number of comparative areas, moving from bibliography to documentation and from scientific to technoscientific order. Primary sources include Paul Otlet’s own writings, relevant contemporary sources from the French documentation movement and the Congrès Mondial de la documentation universelle in 1937. Findings By understanding patent offices and patents as main drivers behind those processes of sorting and classification that constitute technoscientific order, this explorative paper provides a new analytical framework for the study of intellectual property in relation to the history of information and documentation. It argues that the idea of the document may serve to rethink the role of the patent in technoscience, offering suggestions for new and underexplored venues of research in the nexus of several overlapping research fields, from law to information studies. Originality/value Debates over the legitimacy and rationale of intellectual property have raged for many years without signs of abating. Universities, research centers, policy makers, editors and scholars, research funders, governments, libraries and archives all have things to say on the legitimacy of the patent system, its relation to innovation and the appropriate role of intellectual property in research and science, milieus that are of central importance in the knowledge-based economy. The value of this paper lies in proposing a new way to approach patents that could show a way out of the current analytical gridlock of either/or that for many years has earmarked the “openness-enclosure” dichotomy. The combination of intellectual property scholarship and documentation theory provides important new insight into the historical networks and processes by which patents and documents have consolidated and converged during the twentieth century.

Full textAbstract:
The subject of this thesis is Roger Bacon`s work De signis. Its goal is to consider in what sense Bacon works out the general theory of signs. In this sense the thesis` method is situated in the field of "archeology of sings". First it examines Bacon`s definition of sign as a relation, investigates its formal properties and ways of application in particular cases, i.e. Bacon`s classification of signs. Then it shows the way in which Bacon applies this general notion in particular examinations, that is in problems of what the words signify, concept of univaocation and equivocation, theory of analogy and last but not least it considers a question of the nature of signification itself. The last chapter is dedicated to the examination of the (re)imposition phenomenon together with consideration of result it has on the notion of sign relation`s nature and how it serves as an explanation of the process in which these relations work. Keywords: Roger Bacon, John Deely, Charles S. Peirce, medieval semiotics, archeology of signs.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter gives the historical background of Corinth, its destruction by Roman forces in 146 BCE, and its establishment as a model Roman colony in 44 BCE. When Paul was there in the mid-first century it was a bustling crossroads of commerce and ideas. Archeology shows that Corinthian culture was still feeling the effects of the Roman Revolution under Augustus, which brought a distinctly Roman emphasis to all aspects of religion and society. Augustus himself had been very conscious of divine signs surrounding his elevation and rule. This had a marked effect on attitudes toward divine guidance in public worship and in household piety. In settings both public and private close observance of the religious traditions of Rome (whether or not one believed in them) was viewed as essential to Roman unity and prosperity. This piety was self-consciously Roman, emphasizing simplicity, virtue, and service to the community and state.
