Summary This paper argues that the 14th-century Oxford Carmelite Richard Lavenham was the author of the treatise De syncategorematibus that was used as a textbook in 15th-century Cambridge, a version of which was printed several times in the late 15th and early 16th centuries in the Libellus sophistarum ad usum Cantabrigiensium. The manuscript versions of this treatise differ significantly from one another and from the printed editions, so that the claim of Lavenham’s authorship needs to be carefully considered. The evidence for this claim is described briefly. The identification of the De syncategorematibus in the Cambridge Libellus as Lavenham’s provides the first real indication that Lavenham, whose works testify to the influence of other authors on logico-linguistic studies in late 14th-century Oxford, was himself not without influence as late as the early 16th century. On the other hand, the De syncategorematibus is not a very competent treatise, so that its inclusion as a textbook in the Libellus sophistarum is an indication of the decline of the logical study of language in England during this period. A brief analysis of the contents of the treatise supports this observation.

Bronze weights from Myanmar (old Burma) are popularly but incorrectly identified as “opium weights”. This paper examines the historical evidence for a system of weights and measures in old Burma going back to the 11th to 14th century Bagan period. It also examines the challenge to Southeast Asian archaeology, history and museology posed by the popular “Angel Weights” website and Facebook pages, which claim that a hoard of bronzes and associated documentation kept in a so-far undisclosed location represents a hitherto unknown collection of weights that date back to the Bagan and 14th to 16th century First Ava periods. This (so far) private curatorship of alleged historical data presents a dilemma: how does an academic deal with data that is available only on the internet, presented only from the viewpoint of its owners? မြန်မာပြည် (ယခင်ဗမာပြည်)မှ ကြေးရုပ်အလေးများကို လူသိများလှသော်လည်း ဘိန်းချိန် အလေးများဟူ၍ လွဲမှားစွာ ဖွင့်ဆိုလေ့ရှိသည်။ ယခုစာတမ်းမှာ အေဒီ(၁၁)ရာစုမှ (၁၄)ရာစု ရှေးခေတ် မြန်မာပြည် ပုဂံခေတ်ကာလတွင် သုံးစွဲခဲ့သော အလေးချိန်စနစ်တစ်ခုအတွက် သမိုင်းဆိုင်ရာ အထောက်အထားများကို လေ့လာရှာဖွေရန်ဖြစ်သည်။ အလားတူပင် အရှေ့တောင်အာရှ ရှေးဟောင်း သုတေသန၊ သမိုင်းနှင့် ပြတိုက်ဆိုင်ရာ ကြေးထည်ပစ္စည်းများနှင့် ဆက်စပ်အထောက်အထားများကို ယင်းတို့၏ မူရင်းနေရာ အတိအကျ မသိရှိဘဲ ပုဂံခေတ်မှ အေဒီ(၁၄_၁၆) ရာစု အင်းဝခေတ်တို့နှင့် သက်ဆိုင်သည့် ကြေးထည်ပစ္စည်းနှင့် အလေးများဟူ၍ “နတ်ရုပ်အလေးများ” ကွန်ယက်နှင့် ဖေ့စ်ဘုတ် လူမှုကွန်ယက်စာမျက်နှာများတွင် လူသိထင်ရှားဖော်ပြ ထားခြင်းတို့အပေါ် စောဒကတက်စရာရှိသည် များကို စစ်ဆေးလေ့လာသွားရန်လည်းဖြစ်သည်။ ဤသို့ (ဖော်ပြထားသည့်) ကိုယ်ပိုင်ပြသမှု များမှ သမိုင်းဆိုင်ရာ အချက်အလက် များကို လိုသလို သုံးစွဲနေမှုများသည်-“ပစ္စည်းပိုင်ရှင်တို့၏ အထင် အမြင်ဖြင့်သာ ဖော်ပြထားသည့် အင်တာနက် တွင်သာရနိုင်သော အချက်အလက်များနှင့် ပညာရပ်ဆိုင်ရာ လေ့လာမှုတို့မည်ကဲ့သို့ ဆက်စပ်နိုင်ကြ မည်နည်း”ဟူသော အကြပ်အတည်းတစ်ခုကိုလည်း ဖော်ပြ လျက်ရှိသည်။

Water supply in the sandy dry lands (the Netherlands). Spatio-temporal developments Wells as water facilities were standard elements of the Dutch settlement landscape only since the Roman period. At the same time (drinking) water facilities became largely detached from the local topography. The position of a well within a settlement became determined by that of its associated house, and its position relative to the house became more or less fixed. This reflects the functional and social subdivision of the farmhouse into two distinct sections: ‘front’ and ‘back’. Communal water facilities (socially important as well) seem to have been associated with nucleated settlement, and they always existed alongside private facilities. Communal (public) wells first appeared in towns around the 13th or 14th century, but in rural areas probably not until the 16th century. In different periods there is evidence for the expression of social and functional differentiation.

In the early 14th century influences of a new style emanating from Constantinople contained reminiscences of classical ideas and forms (contents of compositions, the painted landscape, the human figures, genre scenes based on everyday life, classical figures, personifications and allegorical figures). Towards the end of the century classical influences in painting began to wane.

David and Capucine Gooding are completing their third year in business, directing the growing activities of their import business located in Stamford, Connecticut. Their niche is marketing handblown glass which is historically accurate and inspired by such disparate designs as 14th-century French, 16th-century Dutch, and 19th-century Venetian glassware. We interviewed David on a “quiet” day when the phones didn℉t seem to be ringing constantly.

Florence was a crucial locus for developments in Italian art throughout the peninsula in the period between 1300 and 1600, and so this article will concern itself with art created in the city rather than by Florentine artists working outside of Florence. To a considerable degree, the pervasive influence of Giorgio Vasari’s Lives of the Artists (1550, 1568) affected all later historiography, which followed the patriotic Florentine in his claims that everything of importance throughout the Renaissance originated in the city and spread from there elsewhere. That myth was challenged only in the latter part of the 20th century. Nevertheless, no matter how Vasari exaggerated Florence’s importance, the city was a major center. It was wealthy particularly from the wool trade and through dominance in banking throughout Europe, and the city’s humanists early advised private and corporate patrons about the advantages to their reputations and to that of the city of commissioning art and architecture. Although in the 14th century, Florence was governed as a guild republic, and the major guilds commissioned most of the major works of art, by 1434, Cosimo de’ Medici rose to power, and thereafter except for brief intervals (1494–1512; 1527–1530), the Medici family controlled the city. In the mid-16th century, the family consolidated its power and ruled over all of Tuscany as grand dukes, and changed the nature of commissions to those flattering its rule.

The article deals with the Omeriye Mosque which was erected as a church in the 14th century and transformed into a mosque by the Ottomans in the 16th century. It was used exclusively by Turkish-Cypriot Muslims until the mid-1950s. Since the 1980s it has become a multinational place of worship. The mosque, located in the southern (“Greek”) part of divided Nicosia, is today a meeting place for hundreds of Muslims mainly from Syria, Egypt, Pakistan and Bangladesh; they include migrant workers, students, and asylum-seekers. After a short historical introduction, the article examines the spatial characteristics of the mosque, the ethnic and social composition of the mosque-goers, particulars of worship and teachings as well as the running of the mosque.
