Abstract:
The current received view is that the economy of the Bronze Age of northern Europe was based on gift exchange rather than trade. This paper, based on a comparative analysis of three groups of Scandinavian bronze and gold artefacts – bronze statuettes of ‘goddesses with necklets’, golden ‘oath rings’ and Fårdrup bronze axes – suggest that there were one or more standard weight systems in use in Bronze Age Scandinavia. The author uses these data to state a case for a trade economy, reminiscent of the Mycenaean world.

Abstract:
The very first studies of Belarusian incantations in the European area demonstrate a number of very close correspondences. Further identification of Belarusian­Western European parallels in subjects, motifs and images would help both to expose the genetic and typological in the Belarusian incantation compendium and to determine the possibilities and ways of borrowing, as well as the formation of unique complexes and images. The semantics of the incantation­based motif of three female assistants personified by needlewomen continue the pre­Christian ideas of goddesses and spirits of fate based on the mythology of weaving. From ancient times, the needlewoman is the embodiment of a creative goddess. A definite influence is the Gospel and, accordingly, the iconographic motif of the Virgin Mary portrayed with a spindle in her hands. Early European incantations offer a story of three virgins on a stone, one of which twists and ties, the second untwists and the third helps; in later German, English and Scandinavian incantations, these are the traveling female characters who help the sick along the way. The needlework motif begins to dominate Polish and Latvian incantations, although it is the motif of traveling that still prevails. On the other hand, Russian, especially North Russian tradition, elaborates in detail the story of a needlewoman in the sacred centre, where the Virgin dominates in this role. The Belarusian ethnic territory proves to be a place of a unique meeting of these two powerful movements, organically absorbing the key subject­semantic nodes and developing them in line with its own tradition, including through offering an original image of three female characters who do not know how but only help in healing.

Abstract:
Andres Manuel Del Rio was born in Madrid in 1764 and died in Mexico City in 1849. He studied mineralogy, geology, metallurgy, and mining engineering at the Royal Academy of Mines of Almaden and the Patriotia Seminary of Vergara. In 1871, with a stipend from the Spanish Crown, he continued his studies in Paris, Freiberg, Chemnitz, and other scientific centers throughout Europe, particularly in metallurgy. In 1794 at the invitation of Don Fausto Delhuyar, who together with his brother Juan Jose Delhuyar discovered tungsten in 1783, Andres Manuel Del Rio went to Mexico where he was a professor at the SahooZ of Mines for more than fifty years, until his death. In 1801, while analyzing a lead mineral from Zimpan, Hidalgo, Mexico, he discovered a.mew element that he called pancuronium or erythronium, because of the red colors, aharaateris·tia of its salts. In 183Z, the Swedish chemist NiZs Gabriel Sez>fstz>IJm z>edisaovered erythronium in an iron ore from Taberg, Smaland, Sweden, and named it vanadium in honor of the Scandinavian goddess Vanadis.
