Abstract:
This study focuses on the variability of pottery fabrics from Mayapán, the Maya capital during the last pre-Hispanic period (Late Postclassic, A.D. 1200-1519). Traditionally, the materials selected by Late Postclassic potters have been considered a reflection of the carelessness of a decadent society using only what the geology of the region provided. For instance, unlike the variety of inclusions found in the earlier Terminal Classic pottery, Mayapán pottery presents a limited array of raw materials: limestone, the most common rock in the region, is almost the sole inclusion found in its pottery. However, the main mineral in limestone, calcite, is found in nature in a variety of textures. While some fabric analyses have been performed for the pottery of the earlier centres of Chichén Itzá and the Puuc area, analyses targeting the fabrics of Late Postclassic pottery are almost nonexistent. This study aimed to investigate the variability and seek patterns in the fabrics of pottery from Mayapán by performing low-magnification, petrographic, and X-ray diffraction analyses. This study also aimed to clarify associations between fabrics and the local typology. The results revealed multiple fabrics based on the many textural varieties of carbonate rocks. While trends showing the association between types of inclusions and ceramic types were uncovered, no clear-cut correlations between fabrics and typology were observed due to the small sample number. This study also showed that petrographic analysis is an invaluable tool to characterise carbonates in ceramics due to its ability to discern textural variations.

Abstract:
Classic lowland Maya censers can be described in terms of two general categories, image (or effigy) and non-image. The function and meaning of these incensarios is approached through consideration of their embellishment, symbolism, and contexts of use and recovery. It is suggested that in Peten and some adjacent areas, Classic image censers were part of the paraphernalia of divine kingship, associated with termination rituals and a royal funerary cult. Non-image and particularly spiked censers were more associated with birth/renewal, earth, rain, and calendrical rituals involving fire drilling. Their use became widespread in the lowlands during the Terminal Classic period, with the “collapse” of divine kingship and elite power.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article reviews data from the modern highland Maya area in order to develop a model of vessel discard frequencies applicable to Classic Maya contexts. Estimating the number of pots consumed by ancient households is crucial to reconstructing the organization of ceramic production and exchange in antiquity. The recent publication ofin situhousehold assemblages from the Classic Maya center of Aguateca facilitates an analysis of household pottery use during the Late Classic period. Vessel class use-lives derived from ethnoarchaeological studies are applied to the Aguateca assemblages to estimate annual consumption rates. The simulated Aguateca discard assemblages are then compared to archaeologically recovered vessel class discard frequencies from the Classic Maya center of Tikal. The article concludes with a discussion of how and why pottery requirements for Classic Maya households differed from those of twentieth century Maya and the implications these distinctions have for interpreting consumption pattern for the Classic Maya.

Abstract:
The earliest Lowland Maya are commonly recognized by permanent architecture and the appearance of pottery. However, when other lines of evidence are considered, strong continuities with late Archaic populations can be seen. Reconciling these views relies on more than simply gathering more data. It is also necessary to consider the effect of decades of scholarship that defines the precolumbian Maya as “civilization” rather than considering the historical contexts of important transitions, such as the one that culminated with sedentism, the adoption of new technologies, and participation in long-distance exchange. The Archaic-to-Preclassic transition was relatively brief and largely obscured by the practices of establishing permanent dwellings. Nevertheless, this period must have been extremely dynamic and marked by significant cultural change, making it important to researchers interested in early Mesoamerica. Using three lines of evidence—subsistence, economy and technology, and stratigraphically controlled radiocarbon data—this article argues that the Lowland Maya had their cultural origins at least in the late Archaic and that the case for pottery before ca. 1000 B.C. remains uncertain. Future research is needed to determine precisely how far back in time certain cultural practices that characterize Preclassic and Classic Maya society can be documented.

Abstract:
Pottery recovered from 2012 to 2019 at Nim li Punit, Toledo District, demonstrates that it was occupied from AD 150/250 to AD 830+. We identify long-term changes in the kinds of material produced, used, and discarded over the 600- to 700-year occupation of the site. During the last century of the Classic period, Nim li Punit witnessed a decline in the diversity of ceramic practice. This could reflect a shift in feasting behavior, perhaps due to the political and demographic instability experienced throughout Maya lowlands during the eighth century. Alternatively, this could be the result of new networks of alliance and exchange that arose during this turbulent time. A third possibility is that distinct communities of potters occupied Nim li Punit at different times. To test these different interpretations, we track changes in the ceramic collection at the type: variety level. We discuss similarities and differences seen in the pottery of Nim li Punit and that of other political centers of the Southern Belize Region, and note design and style elements that are shared with other parts of the Maya world.

Abstract:
This study examines the emergence of status differentiation during the Early and Middle Preclassic periods (1200/1100-300 BC) in the Maya lowlands through the examination of pottery and its status as a valued object. Through macroscopic, contextual, and compositional analyses of previously excavated pottery from four sites in the Petén lakes region of Guatemala—Nixtun-Ch’ich', Tayasal, Ixlú, Zacpetén—this project focuses on the ways value was encoded into vessels. Unlike later polychrome wares, Middle Preclassic pottery displayed little status-marking decoration, suggesting that the "object-value" of pottery was based on function and use ("use-value") rather than attributes related to production (“production-value”). By integrating production attributes with contexts of recovery, this project explores the ways early pottery was produced, used, and deposited at a time when societal differentiation became identifiable archaeologically through the appearance of substantial architectural endeavors and access to exotic goods. This connects to the larger anthropological question of how emerging status differentiation in communities impacts the notion of value in material culture and the process through which prestige goods developed in complex societies.Data generated from this study of 27,870 sherds provide multiple lines of evidence for ways that value was encoded on early Maya pottery. To examine factors relating to production-value, macroscopic (type-variety analysis and modal analysis) and compositional (petrographic analysis of thin sections, INAA, and LA-ICP-MS) analytical methods are used to assess the presence of production-value markers. Attributes ranging from paste composition to surface decoration reveal the diversity in valuation at the beginning of vessel use-life. Use-value is examined through a contextual analysis of pottery and its deposition, with primary focus on the extensive excavations at Mound ZZ1 at Nixtun-Ch'ich'. On the basis of the findings, I conclude that the construction of value and prestige was carried out in many ways by emerging elites in the western Petén lakes area, but it appears that pottery’s role in this was not prescriptive, but supportive.Beyond investigating how early Maya pottery was valued, this study demonstrates the importance of an integrated methodological approach to artifact analysis that considers both contextual and physical attributes. This provides a way to operationalize a concept like object value, which can be difficult to access through the archaeological record. The complementary data presented here reflect the myriad ways in which object-value is affected by both production choices and social behaviors.

Abstract: This master's dissertation has a narrative about the pottery of Tracunhaém, a small town in the Zona da Mata of the state of Pernambuco, also known as the sugar cane zone. The clay handicrafts emerged as an alternative to the harsh conditions of labor exploitation in sugarcane cutting. Modeling saints, pots and clay pots has become a tradition in the city. A brief contextualization is developed focusing on the investigation of the ceramics processes made in Tracunhaém. Field research was carried out, observing two nuclei of artisans; The first of these is recognized by a patrimonial program of the State of Pernambuco, the Register of Living Heritage; Maria Amélia, Zezinho, and Mestre Nuca are part of this group. The second group is formed by the oldest potters of the city, Mestre Da Hora, Amaro de Tracunhaém and Mestre Jair. The theoretical reference transits between aesthetics, anthropology and cultural history. From the theoretical anthropological approach that problematizes the Eurocentric structure of the understanding about art, aspects of the processes of creation in Tracunhaém are discussed. In this way, we seek to understand the perspectives of artisans, so that we can broaden our understanding of the meanings of artisan making in this community. Using the theoretical assumptions of cultural history, approximations are made with the book The Cavern, (2010) by José Saramago, a work that presents questions related to the studied universe
Resumo: Esta dissertação de mestrado tece uma narrativa sobre a cerâmica de Tracunhaém, pequena cidade da Zona da Mata pernambucana, também conhecida como zona canavieira. O artesanato de barro surgiu como uma alternativa às duras condições de exploração do trabalho no corte da cana-de-açúcar. Modelar santos, potes e panelas de barro tornou-se uma tradição na cidade. É desenvolvida uma breve contextualização com foco na investigação dos processos da cerâmica feita em Tracunhaém. Foram realizadas pesquisas de campo, observando-se dois núcleos de artesãos; O primeiro deles é reconhecido por um programa patrimonial do Estado de Pernambuco, o Registro do Patrimônio Vivo; Maria Amélia, Zezinho, e Mestre Nuca fazem parte deste grupo. O segundo grupo é formado pelos oleiros mais velhos da cidade, Mestre Da Hora, e a Família de Amaro de Tracunhaém e Mestre Jair. O referencial teórico transita entre estética, antropologia e história cultural. A partir da abordagem teórica antropológica que problematiza a estrutura eurocêntrica do entendimento sobre arte, são discutidos aspectos sobre a cerâmica de Tracunhaém. Desse modo, busca-se compreender as perspectivas dos artesãos, para que assim possamos ampliar nosso entendimento acerca dos sentidos do fazer artesanal nesta comunidade. Utilizando-se os pressupostos teóricos da história cultural, são realizadas aproximações com o livro A Caverna, (2010) de José Saramago, obra que apresenta questões relativas ao universo estudado

Abstract:
The article is devoted to analysis of clay vessels “covers”, i.e. the curved lines of vessel shapes. Different functional parts are distinguished in a vessel structure. If points that mark the functional parts’ borders are sequentially connected with straight lines we will get the vessel’s “skeleton” which represents a set of trapezoids, rectangles, and triangle. Convex and concave curves rest against the skeleton’s lines and form specific contour of a vessel. Such lines are called “covers”. Alongside with skeletons covers are sources of specific information on potters’ labor skills employed in the process of vessel forms creation. The author suggests an original procedure of vessel form covers study, extent of these covers symmetry or asymmetry and degree of their maturity. Along with that, the author on the basis of a great number of observational data articulates “virtually straight line” notion in potters’ perceptions. All covers of contour line that, due to their flexion, go beyond a virtually straight line are considered to be curves. Depending on extent of their flexion, covers may be unformed, partly formed and fully formed. In addition, depending on a potter’s length of professional experience, covers of vessels manufactured by a potter may be unsteady, partially steady and steady states. In result of application of this procedure of vessel shapes analysis to a great ethnographic and archeological material the author has managed to find out that unsteady state of skills required for making forms is peculiar mainly to potters of a young generation, partially steady state of such skills is peculiar to potters of middle generation and the steady state is peculiar to potters of senior generation. Analysis of the Chernyakhov and the Zarubinets cultures allowed the author to conclude that earthenware from burial ground Voronino (the burial ground belongs to Zarubinets Culture) had been manufactured predominantly by potters of senior or 249 middle generations while vessels from burial ground Oselivka, Ukraine (this burial ground belongs to Chernyakhov culture), were made by potters of young and middle generations.

Abstract:
Pottery is seen as creation of ornamentals, cooking and storing materials. Yet, while economic gains are often considered from producing these materials, the artistic and linguistic aspects have been ignored. This study discusses the factors influencing the culture of pottery, the processes of pottery making, and seeks to uncover the language used in processes of pottery making in Bari, Sibalom, Antique. A qualitative research employing ethnographic study with participant observation and face to face interviews using photo documentation, video recording and open-ended questions in gathering the data was employed. There were five manugdihon, or potters, purposively selected as key informants of the study. The study revealed that environmental factors influenced the culture of pottery making in the barangay. There were seven main processes in pottery making. These included gathering and preparing of materials, mixing the needed materials, cleaning the mixed clay, forming of desired shape, detaching, drying, and polishing and varnishing. Further findings indicate that, together the other processes, the language used in poterry making was archaic Kinaray-a, the language of the province. This language pattern suggests a specialized pottery making. Ultimately, the study suggest that the manugdihon should continue their artistic talents so that the language may be preserved. The educational institutions of the province may provide ways to include pottery making in the curriculum so that the art and language of pottery making will be preserved and promoted.

Three main stages of vessel shapes study are expounded in the article: preparatory, analytical and interpretation stages. The main attention is paid to the analytical stage. It is assumed that content of the interpretation stage will be expounded in a special article based on specific ethnographic and archeological materials. Within framework of analytical stage of vessel shapes study 5 levels of analysis are considered successively: I – analysis of general proportionality (GP) of vessel forms; II – analysis of vessel shapes’ natural structure; III – analysis of extent of functional parts’ maturity; IV – analysis of vessel shapes’ elementary structure; V – analysis of vessel shapes’ curved line (“covers”). Various aspects of potters’ cultural traditions in the sphere of certain vessel shapes creation are analyzed at all levels. At the same time the deeper is the level of shapes analysis, the more detailed cultural peculiarities of population and potters are discovered and fixed. Every level of analysis can be applied to any of 7 functional parts that form the natural structure of specific vessels. It should be emphasized that in this article an extent of functional parts’ maturity is analyzed in considerably greater detail than it was done earlier. Some rules of vessel shapes comparative analysis are expounded in the concluding section. Such analysis is performed pursuant to research tasks in two directions: in direction of certain potters’ individual skills and in direction of cultural traditions of human collectives. In the latter case an extent of cultural homogeneity of collective traditions is fixed. Infraction of the pottery traditions may be related to cultural infiltration (which brings about the beginning of mixture process), to different stages of cultural integration (which means development of mixture process) and to cultural assimilation (the mixture process completion).

Abstract:
Potted electronics are becoming more common in precision-guided artillery-launched munitions and also missile systems due to the requirements for miniaturization and structural-robustness. In this paper we have presented a methodology for encapsulating circuit board assemblies (CBA) with a thin polymer layer. The protective polymer layer is both flexible and soft enough to protect the CBA from damage caused by CTE mismatches, and without any appreciable degradation in the structural support during the high-g forces of projectile launch. The application process described here allows for the use of a broad range of polymer materials including those that may not be formed directly against an actual CBA. Proof-of-concept experimental tests and finite-element simulations have been performed and the tests and simulation results are shared in this paper. In addition, the protective polymer layer can also be used to improve in-circuit board crosstalk and RF interference shielding, tin-whisker growth control, moisture barrier properties, and thermal management for un-potted and potted CBAs.

Abstract:
Miniaturized electronics and components are becoming more common in precision-guided artillery-launched munitions and missiles. Due to the highly dynamic nature of projectile launch, and the demands for increased structural robustness, many miniaturized smart munitions resort to a potted design in order to achieve functionality and reliability requirements. In most of these applications, the potted electronics are inactive for most of their lifetime and may be stored without environmental (temperature and humidity) controls for up to 20 years. The uncontrolled environment for smart munitions however makes the thermal management task especially difficult due to the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch between the potting material and the electronic components. It has been previously observed that modeling a potted device, in support of its development through finite-element simulations, is a complex task due to the numerical-convergence issues, material properties and meshes, during simulations as well as resource limitations. In this paper, we will present a modeling/simulation methodology which can be used in the development of miniaturized potted smart munitions and the product qualification process. There are two basic tests that a potential new munition needs to satisfy: 1) a highly accelerated temperature-cycling life test (HALT), to emulate the un-controlled projectile storage environment and, 2) the extremely high-G acceleration during a projectile launch. In this paper, we will present, 1) the use of finite-element analysis to support design decisions to overcome the CTE differences between electronic components on the circuit board assembly and the potting material and, 2) the use of finite-element simulations to study and improve the survivability of the electronic components on the circuit board assembly during extremely high-G acceleration projectile launches.

Abstract:
This paper tackles the issue of Serious Games design by drawing on the experience conducted in the framework of the i-Treasures project, which deals with the preservation and transmission of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH). In i-Treasures a collection of Serious Games has been developed addressing four relevant ICH areas: singing, dancing, craftsmanship and music composition. So far one game for each of the four areas has been developed; the ultimate aim of the games is making learning and transmission of specific ICH expressions (namely Tsamiko dance, human beat box, pottery, contemporary music composition) more motivating, engaging and, ultimately, effective. Starting from the concept of pedagogy-driven game design, the main pedagogical choices adopted are outlined. Further considerations on the overall design process are also proposed by focusing, in particular, on the need for engaging in a collaborative work a variety of professionals (in the case partners of the project) with different expertise, skills and background. Short intro: Games are increasingly adopted to favour learning in a variety of different educational areas. This paper deals with their adoption in the area of Cultural Heritage Education, in particular in the field of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH). Actually, it focuses on the design of Serious Games (SGs) for supporting and enhancing learning and transmission of practical skills, such as those required to perform specific ICH expressions (e.g.: dances, handicraft). In this area, the potential of SGs is relevant because the learning opportunities they offer are "situated", that is the learner acts in a virtual context which closely resembles the one where the cultural expression is usually practiced. Nevertheless, the SGs' educational potential and actual effectiveness may vary appreciably as a consequence of the design choices made a priori before starting the implementation.

Abstract:
This study defined morphological importance of cultural heritage assets and formation of Egba-Ake town. Cultural heritages include man’s physical imaginative products which can be touched and seen include buildings, crafts, tools, ivory, cowries, paintings, textiles, pestles, mortars, food, wooden objects, tombs & grave goods, temples, dresses, pottery & potsherd pavements, monuments, books and artifacts. Morphology are factors that influence city/community formation which are determined by synthetic and natural determinants. Cultural heritage assets are whatever is valued by people today that was also cherished by former generations. This research explored the importance of cultural heritage assets in relation to urban fabrics formation of Egba-Ake. Qualitative method was adopted in this study, in-depth interviews and personal observation was used for data collection while Nvivo words tree and satellite imagery was used to analyze collected data. Ake’s palace and Itoku market is located at the center around which the Egba-Ake evolved. Ake’s Palace (political and cultural hub of the town) and Itoku market (the economic heritage of the town) was used to preserve various aspects of Egba-Ake cultural heritage. Ela festival (new yam festival) is annually celebrated cultural activity in Egba-Ake. This finding is relevant to policy makers as it allows the support of potential common structures for heritage administration in Egba-Ake. Effect of heritage in EgbaAke morphology is the new palace of Alake (the cultural ruler) of Egba-Ake were renovated and new once built a few years ago with modern architectural designs, furniture and fittings. This has made the Alake’s Palace to meet ‘international standards’. Social amenities and infrastructures like electricity supply, water systems, hospitals, good roads, administrative offices, schools; communication networks, etc. are now a major feature in Egba-Ake town. Further studies will enhance the implementation issues which may arise from the creation of a framework for cultural heritage management, with emphasis on risk management and risk reduction of cultural heritage.

Abstract:
In 2020, WWF launched a consumer guide on plant-based products targeting Swedish consumers. The development of the guide is described in a journal paper (Karlsson Potter & Röös, 2021) and the environmental impact of different plant based foods was published in a report (Karlsson Potter, Lundmark, & Röös, 2020). This report was prepared for WWF Sweden to provide scientific background information for complementing the consumer guide with information on coffee, tea and cocoa. This report includes quantitative estimations for several environmental categories (climate, land use, biodiversity and water use) of coffee (per L), tea (per L) and cocoa powder (per kg), building on the previously established methodology for the consumer guide. In addition, scenarios of consumption of coffee, tea and cocoa drink with milk/plant-based drinks and waste at household level, are presented. Tea, coffee and cacao beans have a lot in common. They are tropical perennial crops traditionally grown in the shade among other species, i.e. in agroforestry systems. Today, the production in intensive monocultures has negative impact on biodiversity. Re-introducing agroforestry practices may be part of the solution to improve biodiversity in these landscapes. Climate change will likely, due to changes in temperature, extreme weather events and increases in pests and disease, alter the areas where these crops can be grown in the future. A relatively high ratio of the global land used for coffee, tea and cocoa is certified according to sustainability standards, compared to other crops. Although research on the implications of voluntary standards on different outcomes is inconclusive, the literature supports that certifications have a role in incentivizing more sustainable farming. Coffee, tea and cocoa all contain caffeine and have a high content of bioactive compounds such as antioxidants, and they have all been associated with positive health outcomes. While there is a strong coffee culture in Sweden and coffee contributes substantially to the environmental impact of our diet, tea is a less consumed beverage. Cocoa powder is consumed as a beverage, but substantial amounts of our cocoa consumption is in the form of chocolate. Roasted ground coffee on the Swedish market had a climate impact of 4.0 kg CO2e per kg powder, while the climate impact of instant coffee powder was 11.5 kg CO2e per kg. Per litre, including the energy use for making the coffee, the total climate impact was estimated to 0.25 kg CO2e per L brewed coffee and 0.16 kg CO2e per L for instant coffee. Less green coffee beans are needed to produce the same amount of ready to drink coffee from instant coffee than from brewed coffee. Tea had a climate impact of approximately 6.3 kg CO2 e per kg dry leaves corresponding to an impact of 0.064 CO2e per L ready to drink tea. In the assessment of climate impact per cup, tea had the lowest impact with 0.013 kg CO2e, followed by black instant coffee (0.024 kg CO2e), black coffee (0.038 kg CO2e), and cocoa drink made with milk (0.33 kg CO2e). The climate impact of 1kg cocoa powder on the Swedish market was estimated to 2.8 kg CO2e. Adding milk to coffee or tea increases the climate impact substantially. The literature describes a high proportion of the total climate impact of coffee from the consumer stage due to the electricity used by the coffee machine. However, with the Nordic low-carbon energy mix, the brewing and heating of water and milk contributes to only a minor part of the climate impact of coffee. As in previous research, coffee also had a higher land use, water use and biodiversity impact than tea per L beverage. Another factor of interest at the consumer stage is the waste of prepared coffee. Waste of prepared coffee contributes to climate impact through the additional production costs and electricity for preparation, even though the latter was small in our calculations. The waste of coffee and tea at Summary household level is extensive and measures to reduce the amount of wasted coffee and tea could reduce the environmental impact of Swedish hot drink consumption. For the final evaluation of coffee and tea for the consumer guide, the boundary for the fruit and vegetable group was used. The functional unit for coffee and tea was 1 L prepared beverage without any added milk or sweetener. In the guide, the final evaluation of conventionally grown coffee is that it is ‘yellow’ (‘Consume sometimes’), and for organic produce, ‘light green’ (‘Please consume). The evaluation of conventionally grown tea is that it is ‘light green’, and for organic produce, ‘dark green’ (‘Preferably consume this’). For cocoa, the functional unit is 1 kg of cocoa powder and the boundary was taken from the protein group. The final evaluation of conventionally grown cocoa is that it is ‘orange’ (‘Be careful’), and for organically produced cocoa, ‘light green’.

Abstract:
Background Transplanting vegetable seedlings to final spacing in the greenhouse is common practice. At the time of transplanting, the transpiring leaf area is a small fraction of the ground area and its cooling effect is rather limited. A preliminary modeling study suggested that if water supply from root to canopy is not limiting, a sparse crop could maintain about the same canopy temperature as a mature crop, at the expense of a considerably higher transpiration flux per leaf (and root) area. The objectives of this project were (1) to test the predictions of the model, (2) to select suitable cooling methods, and (3) to compare the drought resistance of differently prepared seedlings. Procedure Plants were grown in several configurations in high heat load environments, which were moderated by various environmental control methods. The difference between the three experimental locations was mainly in terms of scale, age of plants, and environmental control. Young potted plants were tested for a few days in small growth chambers at Technion and Newe Ya'ar. At NCSU, tomato plants of different ages and planting densities were compared over a whole growing season under conditions similar to commercial greenhouses. Results Effect of spacing: Densely spaced plants transpired less per plant and more per unit ground area than sparsely spaced plants. The canopy temperature of the densely spaced plants was lower. Air temperature was lower and humidity higher in the compartments with the densely spaced plants. The difference between species is mainly in the canopy-to-air Bowen ratio, which is positive for pepper and negative for tomato. Effect of cooling methods: Ventilation and evaporative pad cooling were found to be effective and synergitic. Air mixing turned out to be very ineffective, indicating that the canopy-to-air transfer coefficient is not the limiting factor in the ventilation process. Shading and misting, both affecting the leaf temperature directly, proved to be very effective canopy cooling methods. However, in view of their side effects, they should only be considered as emergency measures. On-line measures of stress: Chlorophyll fluorescence was shown to accurately predict photosynthesis. This is potentially useful as a rapid, non-contact way of assessing canopy heat stress. Normalized canopy temperature and transpiration rate were shown to correlate with water stress. Drought resistance of seedlings: Comparison between normal seedlings and partially defoliated ones, all subjected to prolonged drought, indicated that removing about half of the lowermost leaves prior to transplanting, may facilitate adjustment to the more stressful conditions in the greenhouse. Implications The results of this experimental study may lead to: (1) An improved model for a sparse canopy in a greenhouse. (2) A better ventilation design procedure utilizing improved estimates of the evaporation coefficient for different species and plant configurations. (3) A test for the stress resistance of transplants.
