Abstract:
This contribution focuses on the multifaceted process of Indo-Europeanization which started out, in the Pontic-Caspian region, with the formation of a distinct ethno-cultural epicenter, the Proto-Indo-European complex. Since the late Neolithic, the Indo-Europeanization of Europe and parts of Asia produced various scenarios of contact and conflict. Altogether seven dimensions are highlighted as essential for the study of the contacts which unfolded between Indo-Europeans and non-Indo-European populations (i.e. Uralians, Caucasians, ancient populations in southern and central Europe). Selective aspects of cultural and linguistic fusion processes during the Neolithic and subsequent periods are discussed, and the controversial term ‘migration’ is redefined.

Abstract:
After regaining independence in the early 1990s, the Republic of Azerbaijan signed many international agreements. It also established relations with the European Union. Economic contacts between the partners were revived by the partnership and cooperation agreement’s entry into force in 1999. It assumed political dialogue, assistance in building democracy, cooperation in the sphere of economy and investment. In terms of trade in goods and services, the country have granted each other most-favored-nation clauses in the collection of customs duties and charges, transit clearance, composition and transhipment of goods, payment transfers for purchased goods and services. This has led to increased trade between the European Union and Azerbaijan. The most important trade partners of Azerbaijan in the years 2000-2017 were the following members of the European Union: Italy, France and Germany. The exports were dominated by Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom and Spain. The opening of the oil and gas sector to foreign companies has contributed to a significant inflow of foreign direct investment. More than 80% of the incoming investment is in the oil sector and the main activities are focused the construction of new gas and oil pipelines. The leading investors in this group in the years 2000-2013 were the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, France and Cyprus.

Abstract:
Notable cross-country differences exist in the diffusion of the Covid-19 and in its lethality. Contact patterns in populations, and in particular intergenerational contacts, have been argued to be responsible for the most vulnerable, the elderly, getting infected more often and thus driving up mortality in some context, like in the southern European one. This paper asks a simple question: is it between whom contacts occur that matters or is it simply how many contacts people have? Due to the high number of confounding factors, it is extremely difficult to empirically assess the impact of single network features separately. This is why we rely on a simulation exercise in which we counterfactually manipulate single aspects of countries’ age distribution and network structures. We disentangle the contributions of the kind and of the number of contacts while holding constant the age structure. More precisely, we isolate the respective effects of inter-age contact patterns, degree distribution and clustering on the virus propagation across age groups. We use survey data on face-to-face contacts for Great Britain, Italy, and Germany, to reconstruct networks that mirror empirical contact patterns in these three countries. It turns out that the number of social contacts (degree distribution) largely accounts for the higher infection rates of the elderly in the Italian context, while differences in inter-age contacts patterns are only responsible for minor differences. This suggests that policies specifically targeting inter-age contacts would be little effective.

Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to provide a substantial examination of the foreign contacts of the German resistance with the British government, specifically between Prime Minister Chamberlain's accession to power in May 1937 and the Munich Agreement of 30 September 1938. The contacts under examination will include Carl Goerdeler, Ludwig Beck, Ewald von Kleist-Schmenzin, Ernst Freiherr von Weizsäcker, and Erich and Theodor Kordt. The central motivation of this thesis is an attempt to understand the development of Chamberlain's policy of appeasement until the Munich Agreement, and how information received from German resistance contacts influenced official British policy. Similarly, a study of the September Plot within Germany will be included in an attempt to ascertain the readiness of the resistance to remove Adolf Hitler in the event of a positive response from the British Government.
L'objectif de ce mémoire est d'examiner en profondeur les contacts étrangers de la résistance allemande avec le gouvernement britannique, plus précisément entre l'arrivée au pouvoir du Premier Ministre Chamberlain en mai 1937 et les Accords de Munich du 30 septembre 1938. Les contacts examinés incluent Carl Goerdeler, Ludwig Beck, Ewald von Kleist-Schmenzin, Ernst Freiherr von Weizsäcker, ainsi qu'Erich et Theodor Kordt. Le but primordial de ce mémoire est de tenter de comprendre le développement de la politique d'apaisement de Chamberlain jusqu'aux Accords de Munich, et comment l'information reçue par l'entremise de ses contacts dans la résistance allemande a influencé la politique officielle du gouvernement britannique. Une analyse du complot de septembre en Allemagne sera également offerte afin de déterminer si la résistance allemande aurait été prête à éliminer Hitler si le gouvernement britannique lui avait donné une réponse positive.

Abstract:
Au cours de cette thèse, nous avons étudié les phénomènes associés à l'attraction sociale chez une espèce d'oiseau chanteur hautement sociale : l’étourneau sansonnet, Sturnus vulgaris. Nous nous sommes d’abord intéressés à la nécessité d'être en contact (au moins visuel) avec des congénères. Nous avons ainsi pu mettre en évidence que les étourneaux sansonnets recherchaient activement le contact visuel avec des congénères, et par conséquent que les contacts sociaux semblaient perçus comme essentiels par ces animaux. Nous avons également démontré que la recherche active de contact visuel avec des congénères était dépendante de l'expérience sociale précoce des individus. Les individus élevés sans modèle adulte n'étaient pas toujours motivés par des stimulations sociales. Ainsi, le contact social aurait perdu son appétence chez des individus s'étant développés sans adulte. Enfin, nous nous sommes intéressés aux caractéristiques des contacts sociaux qui attirent les étourneaux. Nous avons montré un choix très clair pour des images de congénères plutôt que des chants de congénères. Ce résultat montre une préférence pour la modalité visuelle chez une espèce qui communique principalement par des signaux acoustiques. Nous avons approfondi cette découverte en présentant la modalité visuelle sous deux formes différentes (interactive ou statique). Les résultats montrent une préférence très marquée pour les stimulations visuelles présentées sous une forme interactive, i.e. sous la forme d'un miroir. Par conséquent, la proximité visuelle ainsi que la présence de mouvement semblent être deux critères essentiels de l'attraction sociale
This work investigates the phenomena underlying social attraction in a highly social species of songbirds: The European starling, Sturnus vulgaris. We investigated first whether contact (at least visual contact) with conspecifics can be considered as necessary. We showed that starlings actively seek visual contact with conspecifics, which suggests that social contacts are perceived as essential by these animals. We also showed that the active search for visual contact with conspecifics is experience-dependent. Fully grown adult-deprived starlings are thus not always attracted by social stimulations. Social contact can therefore lose its appetitive value when young are reared without adult models. Finally, we investigated what features of social stimulations may be attractive for starlings. We showed that starlings clearly prefer pictures of conspecifics to conspecifics' songs. A strong preference for the visual modality is thus evidenced in a species that communicates mainly through acoustic signals. We further explored this preference by confronting starlings to static and interactivevisual stimulation. Results showed a strong preference for interactive stimulation, that is for a mirror. Visual proximity and interactivity therefore seem to be two essential features of social attraction

Abstract:
The aim of this dissertation is to expand the European literature on the effects of parental divorce and family structure on children's well-being, paying special attention to micro and macro-level explanations. In chapter one is analyzed the mediating and moderating role of family income, parental supervision and children's psychological problems on the effect of parental divorce on children's educational level in the United Kingdom. In another chapter is studied the mediating and moderating role of several types of family's resources on arriving late for school in seventeen western countries. In the other three chapters, the hypothesis of whether the impact of parental divorce on children's well-being decreases when it becomes more common and society becomes more adapted to it is tested. Two strategies are used to test this hypothesis: 1- comparing the effect of parental divorce and family structure on parent-child contacts and on arriving late for school between countries and; 2- comparing the effect of parental divorce on adult-children psychological well-being between two Swedish generations. No evidence in favour of the hypothesis mentioned above is presented in this dissertation. Taking into account these findings, several innovative policies for helping children and families are suggested in the conclusion.
L'objectiu d'aquesta tesi és ampliar la literatura europea sobre les conseqüències del divorci i de l'estructura familiar en els fills posant especial èmfasi en les explicacions micro nivell i macro nivell. En el primer s'estudia si els ingressos familiars, la supervisió dels pares, i els problemes psicològics dels fills expliquen o moderen l'efecte del divorci en el nivell educatiu dels fills en el Regne Unit. En un altre, s'analitza si diferents tipus de recursos familiars expliquen o moderen l'efecte de l'estructura familiar en arribar tard a l'escola. En la resta es contrasta la hipòtesi segons la qual les conseqüències del divorci i de l'estructura familiar disminueixen en una societat quan el divorci és més freqüent i aquesta s'ha adaptat més a aquest canvi social. Aquesta es comprova utilitzant dues estratègies: 1- es compara si l'efecte del divorci i de l'estructura familiar en els contactes entre pares i fills i en arribar tard a l'escola en diferents països; 2- s'analitza la magnitud de l'associació entre el divorci dels pares i el benestar psicològic dels fills entre dues generacions sueques. No es troba cap evidència a favor d'aquesta hipòtesi. En la conclusió es proposen diferents polítiques innovadores pels nens i les famílies.

Abstract:
A critical mechanism underpinning current biological diversity is the extent to which one species mates with, or avoids mating with, another. However, little is known about the factors that mediate hybridisation, especially during the initial and rarely observed stages of secondary contact when interspecific interactions have not responded to selection. In particular, whilst hybridisation is ultimately a behavioural phenomenon, the role of behaviour in mediating hybridisation and how it is influenced by environmental and circumstantial factors is rarely investigated. Recently introduced species provide us with unequalled opportunities to study these factors. In this thesis I examine the role of behavioural mechanisms, in particular male-male competition and mate choice, in mediating mating patterns between two genetically and phenotypically distinct lineages of European wall lizard (Podarcis muralis) that have come into recent secondary contact through human introductions. In Chapter Two, I investigated how sexual selection during allopatry is responsible for creating stark differences in phenotypic traits such as body size and weapon performance evident in the two lineages today, ultimately explaining the strong biases in dominance during territorial disputes between males. However, I also show that even given this asymmetry in male competitive ability, the extent to which it extrapolates into greater access to females in naturalistic, outdoor enclosures depends strongly on the spatial clustering of basking sites, a critically important resource for many ectotherms. In contrast to initial predictions suggested by asymmetries in male competition outlined in the previous chapter, in Chapter Three I show that both paternity and courtship behaviour was strongly assortative in the outdoor enclosures. Further investigation through staged experiments on olfactory mate choice, mating trials and analyses on specific behavioural data obtained in an enclosure experiment, I show that lineage based dominance actually contributes to assortative mating patterns in conjunction with weak conspecific male choice. In contrast, female choice seems to play no role in mediating the mating patterns observed between the two lineages. In Chapter Four I had the rare opportunity to examine the morphological and behavioural factors that predict why animals should hybridise in the first place, using the data obtained in the enclosure experiment above. I found that hybridisation was particularly common between small individuals of the larger lineage and large individuals of the smaller lineage; a result that corroborates the mechanisms determining the assortative patterns uncovered in Chapter Three. Additionally, hybridisation rates were particularly high in less dominant individuals, which I suggest is due to subordinate males having reduced opportunities for courting conspecific females due to male-male competition, requiring them to become less ‘choosy’ and therefore more likely to mate with heterospecifics. Finally, secondary contact cannot occur without at least one lineage coming into a new environment, and yet relatively little attention is paid to how this environmental change can affect the signals involved in intraspecific communication and mate choice. In Chapter Five I show that a change in the amount of time male lizards spend thermoregulating (a likely consequence of arriving in a new environment) significantly changes the chemical composition of their scent marks. However, whilst female lizards were able to detect these effects, they did not seem to base their mating decisions on them. Nevertheless, this result raises interesting questions about the potential function and consequences of this plasticity, and highlights the importance of considering plasticity in chemical communication in heterogeneous environments. Overall, this thesis shows the critically important role of behaviour in mediating intra- and interspecific mating patterns during recent secondary contact. In particular, it highlights how the direction and extent of hybridisation and competition are influenced by the degree to which differing morphological and behavioural phenotypes interact over a heterogeneous environment, particularly during the initial stage of secondary contact when mate choice has not had the chance to respond to the selective pressures of hybridisation.

Abstract:
« L'Europe » aura-t-elle commandé les privatisations ? Est-ce à « Bruxelles » que s'est jouée la crise du service public « à la française » ? En partant des conflits politiques et juridiques autour des catégories d' « entreprise publique » et de « service d'intérêt économique général », la thèse éclaire les formes précaires de reconnaissance d'une « économie publique » à l'échelle de l'Union européenne. En faisant l'hypothèse que l'échec à faire émerger un statut à part renvoie à l'impossible agrégation d'un réseau européen de professionnels et de savoirs du secteur public économique pouvant faire pièce au puissant monde de la concurrence, elle révèle un processus historique de « mise en problème » de l'économie publique à l’échelon européen. Né comme une contre-mobilisation institutionnelle visant à juguler les risques d’un dirigisme européen, le programme concurrentiel s’affirme d’abord dans des controverses politiques et doctrinales qui placent le secteur public en position « dérogatoire ». Il se déploie ensuite sur divers fronts bureaucratiques, judiciaires, professionnels et académiques qui contribuent à consacrer un principe d’égale application de l’impératif concurrentiel à tous les agents économiques. L’entreprise de re-mobilisation transnationale impulsée dans les années 1980-1990 par les réseaux politiques et professionnels du secteur public, EDF en tête, permet d’éprouver l’ancrage social et institutionnel de ce nouvel acquis communautaire. En suivant cette trajectoire, on saisit les conditions d’arrimage du paradigme concurrentiel au Marché commun et ses conséquences sur l’articulation du secteur public au projet européen
Is it “Europe” that ordered the privatisations ? Is it in “Brussels” that the crisis of the “service public à la française” has been played out ? Starting from the political and legal conflicts surrounding the categories of “public undertaking” and “service of general economic interest”, this dissertation illuminates the precarious forms of recognition of a “public economy” at the level of the European Union. Assuming that the failure to bring out a separate status refers to the impossible aggregation of a European network of professionals and knowledge of the public economic sector, it reveals an historical process of “problematisation” of the public economy at European stage. Born as an institutional counter-mobilisation aimed at curbing the risks of European dirigisme, the competitive program first asserts itself in political and doctrinal controversies that place the public sector in a “derogatory” position. It then unfolds on various bureaucratic, judicial, professional and academic fronts that contribute to a principle of equal application of the competitive imperative to all economic agents. The transnational re-mobilisation enterprise, launched in the 1980s and 1990s by the political and professional networks of the public sector, led by Electricté de France, provides a test of the social and institutional anchoring of this new acquis communautaire. Following this historical trajectory, one can grasp the conditions of the stowage of the competitive paradigm to the Common Market and its consequences for the articulation of the public sector with the European project

Abstract:
This thesis seeks to identify the mosaic, rather than the monolithic, nature of culture contact by integrating historical and archaeological sources relating to the concept of gender roles, as they influence response within a contact situation. Specifically, I examine how the Inuit gender system structured artifact patterning in Inuit-European contact situations through the investigation of three Inuit sites in Frobisher Bay, Baffin Island. These date from the 16th, 19th and early 20th centuries and represent a variety of seasonal occupations and dwelling forms.
The ethnographic data suggest that Inuit gender relations were egalitarian and complementary. On this basis I hypothesize that European goods and materials were used equally by men and women. Within each gendered set of tasks, European goods and materials were differently used, according to empirically functional criteria such as the nature of the tasks.
Opportunities for and responses to European contact differed depending on the types of tasks in which Inuit women and men engaged and the social roles they played. Seasonality of occupation bears upon the archaeological visibility of gender activities.
Sixteenth-century Elizabethan contact did not alter Nugumiut gender roles, tasks, authority or status but served primarily as a source of raw material, namely wood and iron. Based on the analysis of slotted tools I suggest a refinement to take account of the overlap in blade thickness that occurs for metal and slate, and which depends on the function of the tool. I conclude that there was much more metal use by Thule Inuit than previously believed. However, during Elizabethan contact and shortly afterwards there was actually less metal use by the Nugumiut than in the prehistoric era.
Little archaeological evidence was recovered for 19th-century commercial whaling contact, (suggesting geographic marginality to European influence), or for 19th century Inuit occupation in the area. This is partly because of immigration to Cumberland Sound and because of subsequent structural remodelling of the dwellings by later occupants.
By the early 20th century, the archaeological record showed not only equal use of European material across gender but a near-ubiquitous distribution across most activity classes, even though commercial trapping never replaced traditional subsistence pursuits but only supplemented them.

This research addresses the identification of a Native American presence at the 18th century homestead of the Pharo family in coastal New Jersey, and what it reveals about life during the Contact period. Various stratigraphic contexts were excavated at the site that contain both European-made and Native-made artifacts. The foundation of this research is the definition and assessment of the contemporaneity of excavated contexts that include colonial and native-made artifacts at the West Creek site. By examining these contexts, conclusions can be drawn about the persistence of Native American technologies and settlement patterns into the 18th Century, as well as the interactions between Europeans and Native Americans at the site. Spatial distribution analysis utilizing ArcGIS technology was used to visualize the distribution of diagnostic artifact types throughout the site. Individual distribution maps were created for each of the selected artifact types. These maps were then compared to discern any site-wide patterns that exist. The spatial analysis conducted as part of this project demonstrates that Native Americans occupied areas at the West Creek site very close to one another. Native Americans and the Pharo family were interacting with one another on a regular basis for at least a short period of time. These interactions show no evidence of being violent or forceful. Despite the evidence of interactions, the Native Americans residing at the West Creek site maintained many Late Woodland technologies, including ceramics and projectile points. Furthermore, Native Americans continue to settle in settings similar to what is seen during the Late Woodland period.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Habsburg Monarchy had a long history of relations with Palestine. In the nineteenth century, Austria participated in the “peaceful crusade” forming a special “Jerusalem milieu”. Its actors collected donations to establish several institutions. After 1918, the meaning of “Austria” was completely different from before the First World War. Yet, the (Christian Social) elites of the small Austrian First Republic and the politicians of authoritarian Austria still took an interest in matters concerning the Holy Land. In 1927, an Austrian consulate re-opened in the Holy City. The hospice in Jerusalem and the hospital of the Order of St John of God in Nazareth survived the years of turmoil. Austrian cultural diplomacy in the Mandate period continued to maintain good contacts with the local Arab population and gained new dimensions.

Full text
Abstract:
Being able to follow the chain of contagion of COVID-19 is important to help save lives and control the epidemic without sustained costly lockdowns. This is especially relevant in Latin America, where economic contractions have already been the largest in the regions history. Given the high rates of transmission of COVID-19, relying only in manual contact tracing might be infeasible. Acceptability and uptake of contact tracing apps with exposure notifications is key for the implementation the “test, trace and treat” triad. In the first study of its kind in Latin America, we find that for a nationally representative sample of 10 countries, an opt-out regime with automatic installation significantly increases the probability of acceptance of such apps in almost 22 p.p. compared to an opt-in regime with voluntary installation. This triples the size and is of opposite sign of the effect found in Europe and the United States. We see that an opt-out regime is more effective in increasing acceptability in South America compared to Central America and Mexico; for those who claim not to trust the national government; and for those who do not use their smartphones for financial transactions. The severity of the pandemic at the place of residence does not seem to affect the effectiveness of the opt-out regime versus an opt-in one, but feeling personally at risk does increase the willingness to accept contact tracing apps with exposure notifications in general. These results can shed light on the use of default options in public health in the context of a pandemic in Latin America.

Abstract:
América Latina nunca ha sido un área prioritaria para los miembros del Grupo de Visegrado (o V4): Chequia, Eslovaquia, Hungría y Polonia. No obstante, la cooperación de todos ellos con sus socios latinoamericanos ha ido avanzando sustancialmente. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la evolución del lugar de América Latina en la política de los cuatro países centroeuropeos desde su adhesión a la Unión Europea (UE) en 2004. Se analizan tres dimensiones de esta cooperación: la bilateral, la de la UE y la del V4, como conjunto. El trabajo muestra los principales factores que influyen en la posición de los países V4 sobre América Latina y las concepciones de la política de estos países hacia la región. Después se presenta el desarrollo de esas relaciones en tres ámbitos: el diálogo político, la cooperación comercial y las relaciones socioculturales. En las conclusiones se compara la evolución de las relaciones entre los países del V4 y América Latina, y se hacen recomendaciones sobre cómo se podrían intensificar estos contactos.

Abstract:
All in all, the document sadly contains few tangibles on NATO-Russia military risk reduction even on practical issues of obvious mutual interest. At the same time, it has incorporated a new dose of harsh rhetoric against Russia, which in some instances runs counter to the results of the Geneva summit. Some parts of the documents contradict each other. There is an impression that as far as Russia is concerned the task of the document was to strengthen even further its “hard talk” on Russia while keeping a minimal set of formal references about selective engagement. The Communique tilts further in the direction of raising stakes and showing no interest of NATO in playing its own or at least supportive role in military de-escalation in Europe. It seems that in this regard the Alliance’s intention is to wait and see what will happen next in Russia – US relations.

Abstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under five key headings:  Building blocks: The ultimate aim should be to build rich, detailed and testable narratives situated within a European context, and addressing phenomena from the longue durée to the short-term over international to local scales. Chronological control is essential to this and effective dating strategies are required to enable generation-level analysis. The ‘serendipity factor’ of archaeological work must be enhanced by recognising and getting the most out of information-rich sites as they appear. o There is a pressing need to revisit the archives of excavated sites to extract more information from existing resources, notably through dating programmes targeted at regional sequences – the Western Isles Atlantic roundhouse sequence is an obvious target. o Many areas still lack anything beyond the baldest of settlement sequences, with little understanding of the relations between key site types. There is a need to get at least basic sequences from many more areas, either from sustained regional programmes or targeted sampling exercises. o Much of the methodologically innovative work and new insights have come from long-running research excavations. Such large-scale research projects are an important element in developing new approaches to the Iron Age.  Daily life and practice: There remains great potential to improve the understanding of people’s lives in the Iron Age through fresh approaches to, and integration of, existing and newly-excavated data. o House use. Rigorous analysis and innovative approaches, including experimental archaeology, should be employed to get the most out of the understanding of daily life through the strengths of the Scottish record, such as deposits within buildings, organic preservation and waterlogging. o Material culture. Artefact studies have the potential to be far more integral to understandings of Iron Age societies, both from the rich assemblages of the Atlantic area and less-rich lowland finds. Key areas of concern are basic studies of material groups (including the function of everyday items such as stone and bone tools, and the nature of craft processes – iron, copper alloy, bone/antler and shale offer particularly good evidence). Other key topics are: the role of ‘art’ and other forms of decoration and comparative approaches to assemblages to obtain synthetic views of the uses of material culture. o Field to feast. Subsistence practices are a core area of research essential to understanding past society, but different strands of evidence need to be more fully integrated, with a ‘field to feast’ approach, from production to consumption. The working of agricultural systems is poorly understood, from agricultural processes to cooking practices and cuisine: integrated work between different specialisms would assist greatly. There is a need for conceptual as well as practical perspectives – e.g. how were wild resources conceived? o Ritual practice. There has been valuable work in identifying depositional practices, such as deposition of animals or querns, which are thought to relate to house-based ritual practices, but there is great potential for further pattern-spotting, synthesis and interpretation. Iron Age Scotland: ScARF Panel Report v  Landscapes and regions:  Concepts of ‘region’ or ‘province’, and how they changed over time, need to be critically explored, because they are contentious, poorly defined and highly variable. What did Iron Age people see as their geographical horizons, and how did this change?  Attempts to understand the Iron Age landscape require improved, integrated survey methodologies, as existing approaches are inevitably partial.  Aspects of the landscape’s physical form and cover should be investigated more fully, in terms of vegetation (known only in outline over most of the country) and sea level change in key areas such as the firths of Moray and Forth.  Landscapes beyond settlement merit further work, e.g. the use of the landscape for deposition of objects or people, and what this tells us of contemporary perceptions and beliefs.  Concepts of inherited landscapes (how Iron Age communities saw and used this longlived land) and socal resilience to issues such as climate change should be explored more fully.  Reconstructing Iron Age societies. The changing structure of society over space and time in this period remains poorly understood. Researchers should interrogate the data for better and more explicitly-expressed understandings of social structures and relations between people.  The wider context: Researchers need to engage with the big questions of change on a European level (and beyond). Relationships with neighbouring areas (e.g. England, Ireland) and analogies from other areas (e.g. Scandinavia and the Low Countries) can help inform Scottish studies. Key big topics are: o The nature and effect of the introduction of iron. o The social processes lying behind evidence for movement and contact. o Parallels and differences in social processes and developments. o The changing nature of houses and households over this period, including the role of ‘substantial houses’, from crannogs to brochs, the development and role of complex architecture, and the shift away from roundhouses. o The chronology, nature and meaning of hillforts and other enclosed settlements. o Relationships with the Roman world

Full text
Abstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under four key headings:  High quality, high impact research: the importance of archaeological science is reflected in work that explores issues connected to important contemporary topics, including: the demography of, the nature of movement of, and contact between peoples; societal resilience; living on the Atlantic edge of Europe; and coping with environmental and climatic change. A series of large-scale and integrated archaeological science projects are required to stimulate research into these important topics. To engage fully with Science in Scottish Archaeology iv these questions data of sufficient richness is required that is accessible, both within Scotland and internationally. The RCAHMS’ database Canmore provides a model for digital dissemination that should be built on.  Integration: Archaeological science should be involved early in the process of archaeological investigation and as a matter of routine. Resultant data needs to be securely stored, made accessible and the research results widely disseminated. Sources of advice and its communication must be developed and promoted to support work in the commercial, academic, research, governmental and 3rd sectors.  Knowledge exchange and transfer: knowledge, data and skills need to be routinely transferred and embedded across the archaeological sector. This will enable the archaeological science community to better work together, establishing routes of communication and improving infrastructure. Improvements should be made to communication between different groups including peers, press and the wider public. Mechanisms exist to enable the wider community to engage with, and to feed into, the development of the archaeological and scientific database and to engage with current debates. Projects involving the wider community in data generation should be encouraged and opportunities for public engagement should be pursued through, for example, National Science Week and Scottish Archaeology Month.  Networks and forums: A network of specialists should be promoted to aid collaboration, provide access to the best advice, and raise awareness of current work. This would be complemented by creating a series inter-disciplinary working groups, to discuss and articulate archaeological science issues. An online service to match people (i.e. specialist or student) to material (whether e.g. environmental sample, artefactual assemblage, or skeletal assemblage) is also recommended. An annual meeting should also be held at which researchers would be able to promote current and future work, and draw attention to materials available for analysis, and to specialists/students looking to work on particular assemblages or projects. Such meetings could be rolled into a suitable public outreach event.
