Roman Mining

This paper discusses changes in the Roman mining policy that took place during the Empire, based on the provisions found on the second tablet of the Lex metallis dicta2 (Vip II, 1, 2,5,6,7,8,9) from Vipasca. The main stress is placed on the position, rights and obligations of the coloni and miners and the status of mining pits after their sale. By examining the efficiency of the indirect model of silver and lead exploitation in the mining district of Vipasca, the authors present their solution to the unresolved issue of the means by which the Roman state obtained large quantities of metals necessary for the operation of state-run factories and imperial mints.

Pretendemos com este trabalho dar a conhecer um possível assentamento militar romano localizado na vertente Oriental da serra da Padrela: o Alto da Cerca (Valpaços, Portugal). O uso de uma metodologia não-invasiva permitiunos caracterizar arqueologicamente este sítio e diferenciá-lo em relação à rede de povoamento local. Tendo em consideração que o exército romano estaria directamente envolvido em tarefas de controlo e proteção das zonas mineiras, mas também com questões logísticas e técnico-administrativas de planificação, administração e organização territorial, procuramos contextualizar este assentamento em relação ao distrito mineiro romano de Tresminas. Alto da Cerca (Valpaços, Portugal): a Roman military settlement in the Padrela Mountain and its relation to the mining district of Tresminas - In this work, we study a possible Roman military settlement located on the eastern slope of the Padrela Mountain, named Alto da Cerca (Valpaços, Portugal). The use of a non-invasive methodology allowed us to characterise the site archaeologically and to differentiate it in relation to the local settlement network. Considering that the Roman army was directly involved in control tasks and protection of mining areas, but also in logistical issues and technical and administrative planning, as well as administration and territorial organization, we seek to contextualize the settlement in relation to the Roman mining district of Tresminas.

Roman Mining

The tenth book of the Theodosian Code provides a valuable insight into the different aspects of mining exploitation during the Late Roman Empire. The main issue was a shortage of mining labour. According to Constantine?s fiscal policy, miners were permanently tied to their profession. They had the right to sell their property, loca metallica, but under difficult conditions. The forced mining labour was passed over from them to the potential buyers. Over time, miners became tied to the place of their origin and their children had to take on their fathers? professions. The continuous invasions of the barbarian tribes as well as the suffered losses encouraged miners, in spite of the prohibition, to escape their duties and leave their homes. The miners from Gaul were desperately trying to escape to Sardinia in order to find better working conditions. Those in the eastern part of the Empire tried to acquire the status of colons inhabiting private landowners? estates. The flow of escaping miners became a regular occurrence and the Roman emperors introduced laws which penalised anyone found harbouring miners. The unsatisfactory application of the imperial edicts resulted in a series of new edicts aimed at addressing the same problem. The warning given to the local judges by Emperor Gratian in his decree declared in 378. AD clearly shows that the imperial edicts were not regularly applied in practice. The following period would be marked with new invasions that would have serious consequences on the mining exploitation and make the control of different social categories and state officials even more difficult.

One measure of the maturity of a device technology is the ease and reliability of applying contact metallurgy. Compared to metal contact of silicon, the status of GaAs metallization is still at its primitive stage. With the advent of GaAs MESFET and integrated circuits, very stringent requirements were placed on their metal contacts. During the past few years, extensive researches have been conducted in the area of Au-Ge-Ni in order to lower contact resistances and improve uniformity. In this paper, we report the results of TEM study of interfacial reactions between Ni and GaAs as part of the attempt to understand the role of nickel in Au-Ge-Ni contact of GaAs.N-type, Si-doped, (001) oriented GaAs wafers, 15 mil in thickness, were grown by gradient-freeze method. Nickel thin films, 300Å in thickness, were e-gun deposited on GaAs wafers. The samples were then annealed in dry N2 in a 3-zone diffusion furnace at temperatures 200°C - 600°C for 5-180 minutes. Thin foils for TEM examinations were prepared by chemical polishing from the GaA.s side. TEM investigations were performed with JE0L- 100B and JE0L-200CX electron microscopes.

Measurement of the egg's electrical activity, the fertilization potential or the activation current (in voltage clamped eggs), provides a means of detecting the earliest perceivable response of the egg to the fertilizing sperm. By using the electrical physiological record as a “real time” indicator of the instant of electrical continuity between the gametes, eggs can be inseminated with sperm at lower, more physiological densities, thereby assuring that only one sperm interacts with the egg. Integrating techniques of intracellular electrophysiological recording, video-imaging, and electron microscopy, we are able to identify the fertilizing sperm precisely and correlate the status of gamete organelles with the first indication (fertilization potential/activation current) of the egg's response to the attached sperm. Hence, this integrated system provides improved temporal and spatial resolution of morphological changes at the site of gamete interaction, under a variety of experimental conditions. Using these integrated techniques, we have investigated when sperm-egg plasma membrane fusion occurs in sea urchins with respect to the onset of the egg's change in electrical activity.

Personality Description

This paper describes the status of multicultural assessment training, research, and practice in the United States. Racism, politicization of issues, and demands for equity in assessment of psychopathology and personality description have created a climate of controversy. Some sources of bias provide an introduction to major assessment issues including service delivery, moderator variables, modifications of standard tests, development of culture-specific tests, personality theory and cultural/racial identity description, cultural formulations for psychiatric diagnosis, and use of findings, particularly in therapeutic assessment. An assessment-intervention model summarizes this paper and suggests dimensions that compel practitioners to ask questions meriting research attention and providing avenues for developments of culturally competent practice.
