Abstract:
The worship practices of indigenous people represent a symbiotic relationship between human beings and nature. Since old times conservation of biodiversity and natural resources has been an identical part of diverse cultures in different ways. Sacred groves are those patches of trees on forest land that are protected by local and Indigenous people with religious perspective and connotations. These are tracts of virgin forests with highly rich diversity, which have been protected by the traditional societies and indigenous communities since ages for their cultural and religious beliefs. Every sacred grove caries own myths, lore and legends which form the integral part of the sacred groves. These groves are distributed across the globe, and are diverse culturally. It recognizes them in different ways encoding various rules and regulations for their protection. India is rich in culture and tradition where sacred groves occur in different parts of Indian sub-continent viz., Central India, Western India, North-east India, etc. particularly where the tribal and ethnic communities live. Sacred groves play a vital role in biodiversity conservation and management. Several plants and animal species that are threatened in the wild are still well conserved in some of the groves. It also emphasizes that a number of medicinal plant species that are uncommon in wild forest lands, are abundant in many sacred groves. Furthermore, rare, threatened, endangered and endemic species are often concentrated in these groves. The religious belief of tribal and local communities plays an impressive role in utilization and conservation of flora and fauna of the particular region. Although, by the passage of time, adequate number of changes have taken place in the extension of the sacred groves, in their vegetation structure, people’s perception towards them and religious belief. The current study focused on documentation of all the sacred grooves of Badampahar Forest Range along with their floral and faunal composition. The study also aimed on documentation of all the traditional social beliefs associated to every listed sacred grove.

Abstract:
Sacred groves act as a treasure house for rare and medicinal plants. Apart from the quantitative analysis quantitative approach to sacred grove gives the potential species and importance of sacred grove, which is the main focuses of this work. There are many sacred grooves are present at Kannur district in whichVaneeswaram Kavu is one of the important one. The flora of sacred groves of has analysed taxonomically and phytosociologically. A total of 64 vascular plants falling under 61 genera and 43 families were documented. About 12 species are reported in the red listed category. In phytosociological studies specieslike, Elaeocarpus serratus, Erycibe paniculata and Scleria lithosperma were showing higher IVI. The devastation of species diversity in the study area represent there is an urgent need for regeneration of the species for conservation of biodiversity.

Abstract:
Sacred groves are those forest patches that are connected with the religious and traditional values and beliefs of local people. Plants which are grown near the grove are called sacred plants. Sacred groves include several endemic, endangered and ecologically important plant species. In other words, sacred groves are natural conservation units for biodiversity. Sacred groves and sacred plants are protected and conserved due to the strong religious and mythological beliefs of local people. Their beliefs are as strong as their social traditions. The religious and cultural rites that are performed in the groves give it protection, as well as assisting in keeping the sacred grove in immaculate condition and ensuring the maintenance of its plants. As it is known that the trees are cutting day- by- day and on the other hand Sacred trees which grow near sacred groves are not under threat of cutting due to religious and cultural beliefs. Therefore, Sacred trees or sacred forest a potential role in the sequestration of atmospheric CO2 in the form of biomass. To estimation of Biomass and carbon sequestration in the Sacred tree species have been using a non-destructive method. The main focus of the current article is on estimating the carbon sequestration of sacred tree species in sacred groves found in selected areas Mundra Taluka of Kachchh District. Total 32 sacred groves were recorded from 18 villages which cover approximately 12.77 hectares of land area. Carbon sequestration of 172 individuals of 16 tree species was estimated through the standard method. Ficus benghalensis L. sequestered maximum carbon, i.e., 5.48 tones followed by Azadirachta indica A. Juss. (4.34 tones), Syzigium cumini (L.) Skeels (3.79 tones) While the lowest carbon sequestration was recorded in Pithecellobium dulce (Roxb.) Benth (0961 tones), Prosopsis cineraria (L.) Druce (0.907 tones), Acacia catechu Willd. (0.39 tones) and Tamarindus indica L. (0.173 tones).

Abstract:
Sacred groves are the traditionally managed small or large patches of relict vegetation conserved on religious beliefs and representing the climax vegetation. These sacred patches have some set of traditional rules or protocols called taboos, which are key to the conservation of the sacred groves and the diversity within. Interestingly, every sacred grove has its legends, myths, taboos, and lores which are an integral part of the sacred groves. Sacred groves act as a gene bank for the threatened and endemic flora and fauna diversity, which are either diminishing from the open forest areas are somewhere some species get cleared however, these are still found in good numbers in the sacred groves. The sacred forests are the powerhouse of important ethnomedicinal flora, and several important medicinal plants are housed in these sacred patches. In the Peer Panchal region, these sacred patches play a pivotal role in the conservation of vegetation, however, in the present era of modernity and development, these sacred patches are facing high anthropogenic pressure due to the erosion of traditional knowledge and beliefs, leading to high rate of deteriorations of these life savior patches of forests. The present work reviews the sacred groves in the Peer Panchal region of Northwestern Himalayas, intending to highlight their role in maintaining a balance in our ecosystem and the need to recognize their values and the proper need for the conservation of these life-savior patches of forests.

Abstract:
The goal of this investigation was to identify the customary practices on sacred groves and how they can help in achieving sustainable forest management in Ghana. The study examines forest management, deforestation, and sustainable forest management concepts. A case study of Boabeng Fiema Monkey Sanctuary and Malshegu Sacred Groves was explored. Interviews with community members were executed. Also, some secondary data on these two sacred groves were equally examined. The study found that taboos and other cultural beliefs were used to protect the sacred grooves with little government support. The study recommends that the state should make laws through the environmental protection agency and the forestry commission to support the cultural practices to achieve sustainable forest management.

Purpose: Relic plant communities commonly referred as “sacred groves” in Ghana and comparatively anywhere are ecologically, genetically important resources indigenously protected as “abodes of gods or ancestral habitats” through traditional or religious beliefs and taboos. This study mainly evaluated the potentials of sacred groves for development as tourist sites at Tolon and Diare in the Northern Region of Ghana. Research methodology: Data was collected using semi structured interview questionnaire aided by vegetation survey, observational field walk through the Jaagbo and Tindangung Sacred Groves to screen natural features of the destinations and determine its potential for ecotourism. Findings: Potential areas for visitor amateurism such as the wonderful baobab tree, crocodile pond, misty stone bird sanctuary, were identified in both groves. About 220 different species of plants were identified in the entire groves. The study further discovered that with effective management measures in place, the ecotourism potentials of these sacred groves will optimize if developed to attract visitors and generate income for sustainable socio-economic development of the adjoining communities in northern Ghana. Limitations: Although the target population was above 200 people, relatively small sample size (≤ 36%), could be chosen since the opinion leaders considered the groves as sacred and were less prepared to divulge information about them. Islam and Christianity rather counteracted certain beliefs of the traditional people who adopted local measures to enhance sustainability of these sites for ecotourism functions. Contribution: The study advocates the adoption of bylaws to promote sustainable management of the sacred groves for sustainable benefits. Keywords: Jaagbo, Tindangung, Sacred grove, Crocodile pond, Bird sanctuary, Traditional bylaws, Land use plan

Abstract:
The thesis starts with the study of a Miao village in China, which is known as the center of the Miao culture. In Miao settlement landscape history, there is one feature that can be found in many cultures. The Fengshui Lin, also known as the Sacred Grove, protects the village. The ancient songs and tales of Miao show that the Fengshui Lin can be seen as the spirits of the ancestors (Wang, X. 2015). Since ancient times, Miao people have a tradition of respect for nature, and Fengshui Lin is the most important landscape element for them. It is not only part of the natural flexible border, but also associated with many social activities. Sacred groves are created and evolved through human acts and the long span of human history (Jackson J. B. 1980). They play an important role in many different cultures around the world. Sacred groves may reflect the culture of society as settings for specific functions, or serve as objects of worship for people to purify their souls and refresh their spirits. In burial grounds, there also are sacred groves which could be a place for praying and commemorating. Since sacred groves are seen as spirits of life, it is necessary to think about the relationship between sacred groves and burial grounds. The thesis focuses on the issue of what is sacred? How to make a grove sacred or create a sacred grove in burial grounds? What kind of scenario for the design? With the inspiration of the Fengshui Lin in Miao village, the project aims to create a sacred space with trees for people who lost their family or friends in local communities. My thesis addressed these questions through a design project for sacred groves in the local parks of Arlington, Virginia. With design criteria derived from case studies and literature review, my goal is to create neighborhood cemeteries in the local parks to bring people closer to life as well as death and to let people get the experience of mortality.

In many ancient societies, sacred groves were an essential aspect of life. In some cases, these groves encompass a large territory; in other cases they may be a few trees. These groves originated in the time following the introduction of agriculture. When societies evolving, sacred groves became not a piece of nature, but an institution that depending on custom, agriculture, and even the cycles of life. Sacred groves are a legacy for everyone. These sacred groves may reflect the culture of society, they are not merely symbols but dynamic and complex landscapes created as settings for specific functions. These sacred groves serve not only as totems of worship, but as moments or places where people purify their souls. Sacred groves surrounding or covering burial grounds have existed widely throughout the world (Tuan, Y. 1977). In many burial sites, sacred groves dominate the landscape. They serve the spiritual needs of the living as well as keep alive memories of the dead. This thesis will discuss the method to make a grove sacred and develop a landscape to provide an opportunity for people to get a sense of their life and culture. The concept is to reinstate the connection between burial grounds and neighborhoods by creating neighborhood cemeteries in the local parks of Arlington, Virginia. Through thoughtful site selection and design, sacred groves can hold precious information about the history of communities for generations.

Abstract:
In the matrix of land uses beyond protected areas, people protect nature in a myriad of ways, and have, in some cases, for millennia. With the growth of global databases of Indigenous and Community Conserved Areas and Territories (ICCAs) and registries of sacred natural sites, opportunities are emerging for conservationists to engage custodians of sacred forests beyond protected areas. As conservation expands beyond protected areas, successful engagement emerges from unities in the perspectives of conservationists and custodians of sacred forests. This thesis aims to identify unities for conservationists' engagement with custodians of sacred forests on a landscape scale. The thesis geolocates sacred forests and assesses the implications for conservation in four diverse landscapes in the Gambia, Ethiopia, Malaysia and Japan. The scale of inquiry varies across the papers, from the sub-district level to a national scale. This research indicates that while sacred forests may be overlooked by conservationists due to their small size and autonomous management, when they are considered in concert on a landscape scale, opportunities for conservation engagement become apparent. This thesis demonstrates that sacred forests can be prevalent in diverse landscapes, persist over time, and provide ecosystem services due to their spatial distribution.

Abstract:
It is a universal goal of mankind to seek or to create sacred spaces. What is a sacred space, and what are the qualities which describe that space? For thousands of years, the grove has possessed qualities which have made its space sacred. What defines a grove and the space it makes and how does this form relate to us today? In September 2002 Congress passed legislation for the establishment of Living Memorials to honor and commemorate the losses of September 11th, 2001. Through a program developed by the United States Forest Service and American Forests, these Living Memorials are taking the form of memorial groves. Washington, D.C. chose Kingman Island, located in the Anacostia River, as the location for their 9/11 Memorial Grove. Using the Kingman Island site, this thesis investigates the qualities of sacred space, and the qualities of the grove, to discover how a contemporary grove can create a sacred space that reflects the traditions of the Living Memorial, and honors the losses of September 11th.

Abstract:
Cette thèse intitulée Histoire du peuplement Ambaama et étude des savoirs locaux de gestion de l’environnement (fin XVIIIe-milieu XXe siècle) ambitionne de réaliser une étude historique des savoirs locaux initiés pour administrer l’environnement dans la société ambaama. Elle étudie le contexte dans lequel ces savoirs ont été produits et insérés dans les modes d’organisation et de fonctionnement de cette société. Tout d’abord, elle vise surtout à montrer en quoi ces savoirs jouent un rôle décisif dans la protection de l’environnement et des ressources naturelles. Ensuite, elle envisage d’étudier les dynamiques socio-culturelles qui rendent valides ces savoirs. Dans cette perspective, nous voulons mettre en évidence de potentiels changements intervenus au moment où les Européens nouent des contacts avec les Ambaama. Enfin, nous voulons voir comment les Ambaama ont-ils réagi face à l’instauration du système réglementaire colonial, ce, dans le but maintenir l’équilibre de leur organisation sociale. Autrement dit, nous voulons montrer comment les nouvelles politiques coloniales, en matière de gestion et protection des ressources forestières, se sont imposées, tout en détricotant systèmes endogènes. Cette recherche se situe à la croisée de l’histoire culturelle, l’environnementale, des techniques, des idées voire de l’anthropologie, particulièrement religieuse. La recherche entreprise s’appuie sur deux types de sources complémentaires. D’une part, les sources écrites européennes, comprenant les récits de voyageurs du XIXe siècle et les documents d’archives. D’autre part, des sources orales recueillies pendant nos enquêtes de terrain réalisées au Gabon, en particulier dans la région du haut-Ogooué et dans quelques villages situés sur l’axe routier Makokou-Okondja
This thesis entitled « Story of the Ambaama settlement and study of local knowledge of environnemental management » aims to carry out a historical study of local knowledge to manage the environment in Ambaama community. It studies the context in which this knowledge was produced and put into the modes of organisation and functioning of that society. First of all, it aims above all to show how this knowledge plays an important role in the protection of the environment and natural resources. Then, it plans to study the socio-cultural dynamics that make this knowledge valid. In this way, we want to highlight the potential changes that have occurred when Europeans established contacts with the Ambaama. Next, we are going to see how the Ambaama reacted to the establishment of the colonial regulatory system in order to maintain the balance of their social organisation. In other words, we want to show the new colonial policies, in terms of management and protection of forest resources were imposed, with unraveling endogenous systems. This study is located at the crossroads of cultural and environmental history, techniques, ideas and even anthropology, particularly religious. Our thesis is based on two types of complementary sources. On the one band, we have European written sources including travelers' accounts from the 19th century and archival documents. On the other hand, there are oral sources collected during our surveys carried out in Gabon (in Haut-Ogooue and in some villages located between Makokou and Okondja)

Uma proposta de formação teológico-musical das juventudes, a partir do contexto de um grupo de louvor. Averigua de que forma se dá esta formação e como pode ser trabalhada com intencionalidade. No primeiro capítulo, são contextualizadas as três grandezas constituintes da pesquisa: as juventudes, a música sacra contemporânea e a educação cristã em contexto evangélico-luterano. No segundo capítulo, aborda os diferentes paradigmas que sustentaram a música sacra em contexto evangélicoluterano, as correntes da música sacra atual e, a partir do contexto contemporâneo, o fenômeno gospel. O terceiro capítulo trabalha com as narrativas de vida de seis jovens, que participam de um grupo de louvor e adoração. A partir dessas narrativas, emergem quatro categorias para a análise: formação de vínculos, protagonismo e tutela, compreensão de papéis e funções e a aprendizagem no e a partir do grupo. O quarto capítulo esboça um diálogo entre a prática no grupo de louvor, o Plano de Educação Cristã Contínua da Igreja Evangélica de Confissão Luterana no Brasil e a teoria sócio-interacionista proposta por Vygotsky. O quinto capítulo faz uma proposta de formação teológico-musical que pode servir de subsídio para o trabalho com jovens em contexto comunitário, a partir de reflexões e de práticas
A proposal for theological-musical training for youth groups based on the context of a praise group. It verifies in what way this training takes place and how it can be worked with intentionality. In the first chapter, the three constituting groupings of the research paper are contextualized: the youth groups, contemporary sacred music and Christian education in an Evangelical-Lutheran context. In the second chapter, the different paradigms which sustained sacred music in the Evangelical Lutheran context, the currents of modern sacred music and, based on the contemporary context, the Gospel phenomenon are dealt with. The third chapter works with the life narratives of six youth who participate in a praise and adoration group. Based on these narratives, four categories arise for analysis: formation of ties, protagonism and tutelage, comprehension of roles and functions and the learning in and based on the group. The fourth chapter outlines a dialogue between the practice in the praise group, the Plan for Continuing Christian Education of the Evangelical Church of Lutheran Confession in Brazil and the social-interactionist theory proposed by Vygotsky. The fifth chapter presents a proposal for theological-musical training which can serve as a resource for the work with youth groups in the congregational context, based on reflections and practices.

Abstract:
Library „Transilvania” owns a large estimate of religious books, presence of which in this amazing book temple is a furthermore testimony that God is everywhere or how St. Ioan Gură de Aur stated: „who has a bible in their house, also has God”. Books value that creates this fund which consists not only in action it was edited in Bucureşti, Blaj, Alba Iulia and Roma, ongoing XVII, XX centuries, but in the sacred learning composed in it. The collections importance grows and through the fact that authors were saint people, who had a communion relationship with God and being enlightened by the divine grace spreading towards sharing continuously from the giving knowledge of life. And we, at our time, to become worthy of sending generations that come the necessity to know our creator.

Abstract:
The present tasks facing most of the cities in Nigeria is over reliance on crude oil. The task ahead is to ensure cities function properly and cater for its inhabitants adequately. Several efforts to diversify and develop other sectors of the economy over the last two decades yielded little result. The crash in global crude oil economy is compelling Nigerian cities to explore alternative source of income. At this crucial time, a closer look at creative industry to leverage on heritage resources is being explored. The paper examines precious Idanre heritage as a developmental tool towards urban prosperity. Idanre is a relatively small and historic town in Ondo State situated at the foot of scenic Idanre hills with unique cultural heritage and propensity to attract diverse tourist locally and internationally. The study adopts qualitative research approach through purposive interview and focus group discussion. Community participation will permit inclusive planning for the city. This research findings include 1350AD ancient palace on the hill: unique Orogho, Usalu and Udale quarters; Orosun Sacred Groove and Festival; Agaga Hills; Idanre Forest Reserve; and small-scale Cocoa Agricultural Estates. Community consensus identified heritage memorabilia, cottage industry, small scale local chocolate industry, community sacred forest tour guides and Orosun festival as to enhance the prosperity of the town. Conclusively, community opinion, cultural custodians, traditional rulers, heritage tourists were various elements of Idanre city system as Idanre city is tied to its heritage resources. The legibility of Idanre city is influenced by heritage resources as the collective memory that can be translated into urban prosperity. This paper recommends that innovation capacity and citizenry interaction are fundamental for desired Idanre prosperity through a robust heritage resource deeply rooted in creative industry rooted in heritage resources. Government need to promote the development of cultural heritage and creative industries. Furthermore, urban planning policies should be in favour of mixed-use, well defined and connected spatial clusters within the urban network. An integrated and comprehensive strategy is also needed for the development of creative industries.

Abstract:
Digitalization is actively used by religious organizations. They use it both to coordinate their activities and to spread their beliefs, and even to construct sacred spaces in a virtual environment in which they can perform any ritual actions (pray, light a candle, etc.). Thanks to the Internet, it has become possible for representatives of various religious subcultures to promote their ideas about "tradition". These are not only numerous sites where you can keep track of the calendar of religious holidays, but also about what should be done on this day according to tradition, what should be eaten. There are a lot of sites dedicated to the traditions of religious piety. Their authors are engaged not only in preserving the tradition of piety known to them (there are many traditions of piety, these are local traditions), but also in constructing a new one. In many ways, the focus of such sites is related to the market of religious services. This is a profane level of preservation and construction of tradition. There are also a number of projects whose task is to preserve cultural monuments. These are primarily sites where digitized books and documents that can be attributed to church Tradition (works of theologians, manuscripts of religious content, documents) are posted. There are also sites dedicated to disappeared and preserved church buildings. And of course, websites, telegram channels, contact groups dedicated to icons. These resources are part of the "big tent of the humanities", and play not only an informational, but also a missionary role.

Abstract:
The author is publishing a fragment of new Greek inscription on marble found by accident on the place of the settlement on the Cape of Zyk (the ancient Bosporan town of Chersonesus of Zeno). It is a part of a decision or decree of thiasotoi – members of voluntary association. It was adopted by the priest, the paraphilagathos and the gymnasiarchos whose names are unfortunately lost except two letters in the priest’s name Pe(….) and three letters in the gymnasiarchos’ farther’s name (…)ean(…). The latter is restored as personal male name {Th}ean(gelos)? popular among members of the Bosporan associations in Imperial period. We now have five inscriptions from Chersonesus of Zeno which belong to the associations of its citizens. Their study allowed the author to attribute all of them to one and the same thiasos which was active in course of the 2-3rd centuries AD and united the inhabitants of this town, mostly the Greeks by origin. Besides publishing the newly discovered document the author corrects the early suggested reading and interpretation of three other inscriptions from Chersonesus of Zeno. He admits that two separated pieces – one earlier attributed as the official decree or a letter of king Cotys III and dated to the time of his reign, and the second one, defined as a list of the thiasotoi, are in fact two fragments of one inscription – edict of the Zenonites’ association, ad opted in the time of Cotys III by the head of the union, presumably the synodos with the priest and probably the parahilagathos at the head. He also gives a vast commentary to other inscriptions – one mentions “the father of synodos”, and the other which is a list of thiasos’ members. He corrects the reading of one of the names in this list to be restored as (Pol)yaenos but not as Hroxenos. The association in Chersonesus of Zeno stands close to the associations of Panticapaeum and Tanais. The author made a complete study of the organization, activity, logistics and policy of the Bosporan associations towards the royal power, having admitted that synodoi could hardly be separate voluntary or alternative unions at Bosporus. They were initially sacred groups in the thiasoi but later, since the late 1 – 2nd century AD, started to function as their praesidium, i.e. head or council of associations, which included members of high position.

Abstract:
The Main10ance project aims to implement a plan of maintenance and conservation of the historical cultural heritage. This is an INTERREG project. The V-A Cooperation Programme Italy-Switzerland 2014-2020 contributes to the objectives of the Europe 2020 Strategy and the New Swiss Regional Policy (NRP)addressing the needs common to both sides of the border and aiming to generate significant change in the area of cooperation, both in terms of increasing competitiveness and strengthening economic and social cohesion. The case study is the system of the Sacri Monti of northern Italy and Switzerland, groups of chapels and other architectural artifacts. The design phases are divided into: survey of the historical architectural heritage present; data processing and realization of three-dimensional models with the help of BIM software; integration of the same in the geographical context through GIS support; creation of a database which creates interoperability between the various domains and which collects information on the characteristics of the goods for maintenance and conservation purposes; possibility to make the information associated with 3D models accessible through demonstrators that allow interrogation of the DB and the models themselves. The geometric representation respects the subdivision of the levels of detail (LOD) for GIS with the standard CityGML and the levels of development (LOD) for BIM with the UNI 11337/4.

Abstract:
In this paper, A new biodynamical model was developed with the objective of analyzing the dynamic responses of the human back during the exertion of symmetric lifting activities. More emphasis was placed on the study of the lumbosacral disc located between the fifth lumbar and first sacral vertebrae (L5/S1). The present model accounts for the sliding components of velocity and acceleration as well as the Coriolis acceleration in the kinematical equations of the human back. The inclusion of those terms has enabled a more accurate computation of the generated sliding effect of the flexible disc as well as the change in its height and width which normally occurs during the gross body rotation of the back. This has turned to have a significant effect on the resulting compressive force applied at the L5/S1 region. A computer model was developed in this study to automate the biodynamical simulation processes for workers of different genders and for a vast range of body postures. Results indicated that the inclusion of the sliding components of velocity and acceleration do actually have a significant effect on the whole range of lifting activities in which an angular velocity exceeding 24 degree/sec is employed. Results obtained in this paper were compared with the experimental and computational (simulated) results of recent relevant publications. The comparison shows that there are good agreements between the results for angular velocities exceeding 24 degree/second, which is known as the normal range of operation in lifting activities. Results obtained in this paper were in good agreement with NIOSH action and maximum limits which make it reliable for use as a guideline to help workers in industry to avoid hostile lifting activities and bring to attention an early warning to avoid engaging industrial labors with postures leading to severe back pain problems.
