The archaeological remains discovered in a site reflect past human behavior attemptingto adjust oneself with ones surrounding environment. Thus, there should have been a closerelationship between choosing a prospective activity location and humans strategy to fulfill onesbasic needs. Among the sites in the central region of Kalimantan, which indicate the potency todepict the occurrence of a persisting religious-based-tradition of past civilization, is Haringen. Untilnow, one of the traditions which still show the continuity of old culture is burial. In regard to thisresearch, the effort to identify the characteristics of Haringen burial was carried out by using ethnoarchaeologicalapproach. Based on analogical analysis on ethnographic data of the Maanyancommunities who reside in Haringen today, the discussion was foussed on past human behavior inHaringen concerning death management, both involving tangible and intangible features. Therefore,I assume the Haringen burial characteristic is an implementation of the concept of Kaharinganbelief, which is principally, founded from religious concepts occurred in prehistoric period; a periodwhen the concept of ancestor worship was initially developed and elaborated with the concept ofaxis mundi, which is materialized in form of terraced structures.

In this chapter, the authors present the result of a study carried out to develop a pre-assessment model that can be used to carry out a preliminary study on the availability of wind energy resources of a site. 21 years’ (1987 – 2007) monthly average wind speeds for 18 locations in Nigeria were used to create the simple constitutive model. The locations span across the six geopolitical zones of the nation with three stations from each zone. Various statistical procedures were employed in the development of the model. The outcome gave an empirical model, which if employed, will lead to determining the modest range of wind energy potential of a site. Further, the results from this model were compared with those from the well-established two-parameter Weibull statistical distribution function and found to be reasonably adequate. Thus with this model, decision on site selection for complete assessment can be made without much rigour.

ABSTRACT Salmonella plasmid pFPTB1 includes a Tn3-like transposon and a Xer recombination site, fpr, which mediates site-specific recombination at efficiencies lower than those required for stabilizing a plasmid by dimer resolution. Mutagenesis and comparative studies with mwr, a site closely related to fpr, indicate that there is an interdependence of the sequences in the XerC binding region and the central region in Xer site-specific recombination sites.

Chapter 2 begins a series of case studies that are devoted to exploring what knowledge was drawn on by the biblical scribes to develop stories about the early Iron Age period. This chapter’s investigation is devoted to the Philistine city of Gath, one of the largest cities of its time and a site that was destroyed ca. 830 BCE. Significant about Gath, consequently, is that it flourished as an inhabited location before the emergence of a mature Hebrew prose writing tradition, meaning that the information recounted about the city was predicated primarily on older cultural memories of the location. Comparing the biblical references to the site with Gath’s archaeological remains reveals moments of resonance between these stories and the material culture unearthed from the location. Accordingly, what comes to light through this chapter’s analysis is one mode of remembering that informed the creation of these biblical stories: that of resilience.

A site-specific nutrient management (SSNM) field trial was conducted for irrigated rice using five fertilizer treatments: i) omission of N, ii) omission of P, iii) omission of K, iv) NPK and v) farmers’ practice (FP). Substantial variation in the native N, P, and K supply was found among farmers’ fields. The indigenous soil K produced 4.5 to 5.0 t ha-1 but native P and N gave only rice yield of 3.5 to 4.0 t ha-1. The highest grain yield (6.0 to 7.5 t ha-1) was obtained from balanced fertilization, followed by FP (4.0 to 5.0 t ha-1).The optimal grain yield at Faridpur was obtained by using N, P and K at 135, 8 and 49 kg ha-1; 139, 9 and 42 kg ha-1; and 140, 10 and 43 kg ha-1 for high, medium and low land rice, respectively. However, for Gopalgonj district fertilizer doses of N, P and K were 140, 11 and 38 kg ha-1; 142, 10 and 42 kg ha-1; and 138, 10 and 49 kg ha-1; and for Madaripur district, 126, 8 and 46 kg ha-1; 120, 7 and 38 kg ha-1; and 99, 6 and 27 kg ha-1 for high, medium and low land rice, respectively. These predicted fertilizer doses increase farmers’ income and protect environment from pollution.Bangladesh Agron. J. 2017, 20(2): 1-9

This research is a preliminary study of planting ornamental plants with a green wall system. This study aims to provide an overview and information about the selection of types of plants that are suitable and commonly used in making green walls and arranging selected plants in green walls system. Green wall system which is often called vertical garden is a technique to plant ornamental plants, vegetables or other types of plants with a free design that considers various resources that allow plants to grow vertically. The advantages of green walls are efficient use of soil, beautifying the environment, adding location value, cleaning the air, lowering temperature, producing oxygen and providing fresh food that is close to the surrounding environment at home. Not all types of plants can be planted vertically. Easy-to-grow plants, short appearance and slow growth are common characteristics used for green walls. The special characters of the selected plants are determined based on the group of indoor or outdoor plants. Consideration of nutritional, light, water and plant requirements will determine the success of planting and the sustainability of vertical planting.

The dispersion of archaeological sites at Muak Village in Jambi Highland forms a spatial grouping of sites of a community in the past. However, the settlement pattern and local geographical condition, which influenced it, has yet to be recognized. To solve the problem, three phases of analyses were performed. First, specific or descriptive was carried out to identify artifacts. Second, the contextual analysis was conducted to know the functions of the artifacts and sites. Third, the semi-micro spatial analysis was done to reveal the site to site relationships as well as a relation between a site and the surrounding geographical environment. Based on those analyses can be identified that the megalithic settlement at Muak Village consisted of ritual, habitation, and urn burial sites. The layout of those sites is a ritual site encircled by the habitation site, while the urn burial site is located outside the habitation area. Moreover, the relation between the sites and the surrounding environment is that the ritual and habitation sites are located on hill ridges, while the urn burial site is on hill slope or valley.

This article examines current discourses on the role of the bridewealth in subordinating women and the implications of gender justice advocacy that privilege the undoing of this practice. In northern Ghana, to liberate women from oppression, some women’s rights activists advocate the abolition of the marriage payment. Drawing on ethnographic data gathered in north-western Ghana, we argue that dismantling the institution of the bridewealth risks worsening women’s subordination. Gender activism needs to be sensitive to contextual norms and respectful of the ‘oppressed’ subjects of ‘liberation’. We propose a return to the traditional court as a site for negotiating women’s emancipation.

Descriptive Method

Rape to girls is categorized as violence that continuously happened. This research looks at the sexual harrasement phenomena from the perpetrator’s point of view. Many cases indicate that the subject often has close connection with the victims such as neighbour, relative, teacher, grandfather, father, or even young underage male surrounding the victims. It means that both victims and the subjects are psychologically immature but for several reasons they have to involve in a situation which destruct their future. Therefore, there is a need to frame various factors that drive the subject for doing sexual harrasement. By using materials on the newspaper, this research employs qualitative-descriptive method that purposively uses Jawa Pos news as single resource of the data. The result shows that particular places affect the subject in conducting their action. There are four places that are usually used as a site of sexual harrasement. First is in the area that is hidden and safe from observations of the surrounding environment, especially in the victim's home. Second, other areas prone to the occurrence of acts of rape are zones completely open and away from the reach of community control, such as on the streets, in public places, in a quiet courtyard, at the cemetery, and so on. Third, the place is usually chosen to rape, one of them is in school. Fourth, in the region in the eyes of the public is viewed as an area of "gray" and was common permissive life, such as in a hotel or inn.
