Abstract:

The mystery of the trees of Rapa Nui (Easter Island) is a complex problem within a dynamic ecosystem. With new physical cores from the volcanic crater lake Rano Kao, this dissertation uncovers a detailed 15,000 year ecological history of Easter Island and its climatic variability. New radiocarbon dating methods establish a more precise chronology which shows that the island before human habitation was very different than what we know today. It had a simple but prolific ecology that transitioned into a barren grassland. What factors caused the transition are unclear but are likely to be human r

Abstract:

Documentaries have the power to rewrite history and perpetuate myths in our society. In the case of Easter Island, documentary filmmakers have sensationalized the history of the Rapa Nui people, dwelling on dramatic concepts such as eco-disaster, cannibalism and mysteriously vanishing cultures. As a result of poor filmmaking, we have a mythologized history of Easter Island. In my attempt to create a science-based documentary about an issue affecting contemporary Easter Island society, this mythologizing of history became a major obstacle. It became apparent that I had to first inform audiences

Abstract:

The history of Easter Island, with its cultural and ecological mysteries, has attracted the interests of archaeologists, anthropologists, ecologists, and economists alike. Despite the great scientific efforts, uncertainties in the available archaeological and palynological data leave a number of critical issues unsolved and open to debate. The maximum size reached by the human population before the arrival of Europeans and the temporal dynamics of deforestation are some of the aspects still fraught with controversies. By providing a quantitative workbench for testing hypotheses and scenarios,

Abstract:

Easter Island is a remote Island located 3000 km far from the west-coast of Chile and it is considered the most isolated place on Earth. First humans arrived in the island likely during the 10th century. After their arrival the Rapa Nui people used the environmental resources available and created a complex society that lead to the building of the famous statues named Moai. However, between the 15th – 16th century, the Rapa Nui society declined. This decline has been ascribed to several climatic and environmental factors combined with a mismanagement of the resources available that lead to the

To accomplish this purpose, two peat cores of 14 and 4 meters have been retrieved from the center and the margin of the Rano Aroi peatland. Facies description and age model allowed us to decipher that the peat started accumulating 70.000 years ago, what means that this is the oldest peat record recovered up to the moment over the Southern Pacific.

Abstract:

The term 'Spice Islands' has been used as a descriptor in m. The thesis begins with a chapter on my exhibition titled Islands of the Imagination. It describes the form the exhibition took, and how the various elements were developed and finalised. One of the most significant components was the canvases which reworked various signs of the Spice Islands. These canvases continued my interest in popular culture and deployed a variety of codes in order to find new ways of discussing the Spice Islands. Other significant elements included artefacts such as spices, Birds of Paradise and coins from my

Abstract:

Cette recherche entend analyser les productions eschatologiques byzantines et arabes rédigées pendant les deux premiers siècles après la naissance de l'Islam. L'expansion soudaine des troupes islamiques, a été interprétée par les Chrétiens d'Orient surtout selon une optique apocalyptique; une grande partie des sources en grec et en syriaque compte l'invasion soudaine des Arabes parmi les signes de la fin des temps. Dans la narration eschatologique la conquête arabe devient une tribulation éphémère avant la victoire finale du bien; cette vision de l'histoire fournit ainsi des éléments d'espoir
