Este estudo busca aprofundar a compreensão das intervenções psicoterapêuticas e farmacológicas no tratamento da depressão pós-parto, uma condição clínica que afeta significativamente mulheres após o parto. A depressão pós-parto é uma manifestação grave de desordem do humor, com impactos não apenas na esfera emocional da mãe, mas também na dinâmica familiar e no desenvolvimento saudável do vínculo mãe-bebê. A complexidade dessa condição demanda uma análise cuidadosa das abordagens terapêuticas disponíveis para promover um tratamento eficaz.

No contexto psicoterapêutico, terapias cognitivo-comportamentais e interpessoais emergem como estratégias-chave. Estas abordagens visam não apenas abordar os sintomas depressivos, mas também promover uma compreensão mais profunda dos fatores contribuintes, como mudanças hormonais, estresse social e ajustes no papel materno. A eficácia dessas intervenções reside na capacidade de fornecer suporte emocional, estratégias de enfrentamento e promover a resiliência psicológica.

Além disso, o tratamento farmacológico, notadamente o uso de antidepressivos, desenha uma vertente importante no manejo da depressão pós-parto. Avaliar a segurança e efetividade desses medicamentos é crucial, considerando os potenciais impactos na saúde materna e no desenvolvimento infantil. A integração harmoniosa de intervenções psicoterapêuticas e farmacológicas emerge como uma abordagem promissora, visando uma resposta terapêutica abrangente e personalizada.

Ao considerar esses aspectos, é imperativo explorar não apenas a eficácia clínica, mas também a aceitação e adesão das pacientes a essas intervenções. Um entendimento abrangente da interação entre essas modalidades terapêuticas, aliado a uma abordagem sensível às necessidades individuais, contribuirá para avanços significativos no tratamento da depressão pós-parto. Essa investigação visa oferecer insights valiosos para profissionais de saúde mental, permitindo uma abordagem mais informada e eficaz diante dessa complexa condição.

Abstraksi Objek Konkrit dalam Peribahasa Melayu: Analisis Semantik Inkuisitif
Authors: Mohamed Asad , Jalaluddin Nor Hashimah
Published: December 2023

Peribahasa Melayu merupakan satu daripada bukti tingginya akal budi orang Melayu. Ungkapan berkias yang ringkas ini biasanya mempunyai makna yang tepat, padat serta bersifat kompleks. Dalam peribahasa, ujarannya tidak akan dapat difahami dengan hanya mengambil makna selapis atau makna harfiah. Hal ini berlaku kerana, banyak peribahasa mempunyai makna konkrit dan abstrak yang boleh dipetakan melalui domain sumber dan sasaran. Makalah ini bermatlamat untuk menjelaskan proses yang berlaku dalam minda serta menghuraikan akal budi dan falsafah di sebalik pemilihan objek peribahasa. Sebanyak 31 peribahasa yang menggunakan leksikal garam diperoleh melalui janaan daripada laman web (http://www.malaycivilization.com.my/peribahasa). Kajian ini berteraskan kerangka analisis semantik inkuisitif yang dikemukakan oleh Nor Hashimah (2014). Kombinasi data korpus, teori, kognitif, falsafah dan budaya terbukti mampu mencungkil akal budi orang Melayu. Analisis mendapati terdapat beberapa fitur yang menjadi mekanisme kepada berlakunya abstraksi makna objek konkrit. Garam diabstraksi melalui fitur makna [+murah] yang berhubung dengan makna “hina”. Garam juga diabstraksi sebagai “manusia hina” oleh orang Melayu kerana sifat “mudah lebur” objek garam. Kajian ini bukan sahaja menghuraikan abstraksi yang berlaku dalam peribahasa, malah dapat mencungkil kearifan dan kebijaksanaan orang Melayu.

Police And Crime Control In Jamaica
Authors: Harriott Anthony
Published: December 2023

Police and Crime Control in Jamaica is a valuable addition to the sparse literature on policing in developing states, and is the first study of its kind dedicated to the state of a police force in a Caribbean territory. The work examines the extent and sources of police ineffectiveness in controlling crime. It assesses the quality of justice, and declining public confidence in the criminal justice system. Police reform efforts, as well as sources of cynicism among members of the force, are analysed. This study of policing and citizen-state relations is especially relevant to the tourism-dependent countries of the Caribbean amid growing recognition of the negative impact of high rates of violent crime on these economies. This book will be much valued by students of criminology and criminal justice, especially those with an interest in the Caribbean, as well as the general reader who is concerned with issues of crime and policing.

Newsroom Law
Authors: Waterman Latchoo Kathy Ann
Published: December 2023

This book is meant to guide, comfort and support journalists. While they may chafe against the many legal restrictions, they should know that there is a lot they can do and say within the law. With a better understanding of their legal rights, journalists can go about their business with greater confidence, knowing when to yield and when to stand firm. Kathy Ann Waterman Latchoo begins by placing journalism in a constitutional context and ends with an overview on damages for defamation and a glossary of legal terms. She describes our legal systems and the hierarchy of courts, which every journalist should strive to understand, whether or not assigned to the court beat. In Newsroom Law, she seeks to demystify libel law, including the Reynolds public interest defence, which has put fresh emphasis on what constitutes “responsible journalism”. Other chapters alert journalists to the legal pitfalls in covering parliamentary affairs, elections and court cases. Cyber-libel, copyright and freedom of information are also included and the chapter on investigative journalism seeks to answer common questions such as whether photographers may use telephoto lenses to capture people in private; whether journalists may record conversations covertly; and whether it is ever permissible to break the law to expose evil.
Participatory Democracy
Authors: Thomas Marc Anthony
Published: December 2023

In Participatory Democracy: The Case of Parish Development Committees in Jamaica, Marc Anthony Thomas expands the existing knowledge on participatory democracy. Parish development committees were established as a means for Jamaicans to inform government policy, and Thomas explores the extent to which supportive institutional, infrastructural and superstructural conditions allow for robust implementation of this democratization initiative. His analysis is bolstered by an appreciation of the emancipatory politics employed by the country’s general population since slavery not only to survive oppression, but also to influence the nation’s political agenda. Riots during slavery and in the present day, for example, have offered citizens an avenue towards self-determination. The democratization initiative symbolized by parish development committees promotes inclusiveness yet is led predominantly by older, educated middle-class individuals with talents and capacities garnered from several years of experience in various fields. Thomas argues that the opportunity cost of a more inclusive order explains this fact, in that Jamaica’s finite resources mean there is limited space for a learning curve and the cash-strapped committees have only been able to survive when their members could help to defray the cost of their operations. By observing more than one hundred hours of parish development committee activities and interviewing sixty key informants and four focus groups, Thomas finds that the emergence, survival and thriving of parish development committees in Jamaica is determined largely by the extent to which emancipatory political tactics are successfully applied by committee stakeholders to combat a number of continuing challenges. His analysis provides a micro-scale view of the interaction of factors that have shaped the power and possibility of Jamaica’s democratization initiative.

Using this, we give an efficient  method for constructing nearly Gorenstein polytopes. Moreover, we determine the structure of nearly Gorenstein (0, 1)-polytopes and characterise nearly Gorensteinness of edge polytopes and graphic matroids.
Comprehensive measurement of obstruction in nasal allergen challenges—a critical update
Authors: Vogt Klaus , Roesch Sebastian
Published: December 2023

Numerous methods for functional diagnostics of nasal obstruction provide various information on nasal airway resistance and may aim to replace physically based methods by so-called simplifications or solely on subjective score systems. This may lead to nonsatisfying results in nasal surgery and prolonged postoperative care. An interdisciplinary analysis of contemporary methods for measurement was the task of the German-Austrian research program “Rhinodiagnost”. This review is intended to discuss basic and wide-spread errors playing a significant role during daily practice and proposes a step program for functional rhinological diagnostics with some modifications to be applied in case of allergic nasal disease. With regard to the content of “position paper on the standardization of nasal allergen challenges (2018)” of the European Academy of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) and the results of the consensus conference of Riga in 2016, the differences between of “classic” and 4-phase-rhinomanometry (4PR) and their differences are clarified. The parameters of logarithmic effective resistance (LReff) allow a classification of the obstruction obtained during 36,500 measurements which are correlated to the subjective sensing of obstruction. The classification can be adapted for age and size and is valid for the Caucasian and Chinese populations.
Tymų infekcijos protrūkių sąsajos su mažėjančiomis vakcinacijos aprėptimis Lietuvoje ir pasaulyje
Authors: Paškevičienė Miglė , Kondratavičiūtė Gintarė , Sauserienė Jolanta
Published: December 2023

Pastaraisiais metais pasaulyje vis didėjantys tymų atvejų skaičiai ragino atlikti daugybę tyrimų ir ieškoti sąsajų tarp kylančių protrūkių bei vakcinacijos apimčių. Kaip ir buvo tikėtasi, tyrimai pagrindė, kad tymų infekcijos šuoliai yra susiję su mažėjančiomis vakcinacijos aprėptimis ir silpnėjančiu kolektyviniu imunitetu. Remiantis Pasaulio sveikatos organizacijos (PSO) rekomendacijomis, norint sudaryti tvirtą kolektyvinį imunitetą prieš tymų infekciją, vakcinacijos apimtys visuomenėje turi būti ne mažesnės nei 95 proc. Visame pasaulyje, įskaitant ir Lietuvą, stebimas vakcinacijos nuo tymų infekcijos suma­ žėjimas. Lietuvoje šis rodiklis 2009–2019 m. nukrito nuo 96 proc. iki 92 proc. – kolektyvinis imunitetas tapo nepakankamas ir dėl to kilo tymų infekcijos protrūkis. Manoma, kad vakcinacijos apimčių sumažėjimą lemia antivakcininiai judėjimai, informacijos stygius, visuomenės klaidinimas nepagrįstais faktais bei prastas vakcinų prieinamumas ekonomiškai skurdesnėse valstybėse. Siekiant išvengti protrūkių ateityje ir suvaldyti infekciją, skatinama nepamiršti pagrindinės prevencijos priemonės – MMR vakcinos. Tam reikalinga užtikrinti sklandų vakcinų tiekimą, konkrečias rekomendacijas, plėtoti sąmoningumą visuomenėje bei dalytis mokslu grįsta informacija.

Smegenų rūkas – sveikų žmonių nuovargio priežastis
Authors: Vanagė Urtė
Published: December 2023

Smegenų rūkas – tai terminas, kuriuo apibūdinamas lengvas kognityvinių (pažintinių) funkcijų sutrikimas, panašus į protinį nuovargį. Pagrindiniai smegenų rūko simptomai: užmaršumas, lėtas mąstymas, koncentracijos stoka, sumišimas, atminties sutrikimai [1]. Šiuo metu smegenų rūkas yra itin aktuali tema, nes vienas dažniausių liekamųjų reiškinių persirgus COVID-19 infekcija – tai pokovidinis sindromas, kuris pasireiškia smegenų rūku [1, 2]. Remiantis Valstybinės duomenų agentūros statistika, Lietuvoje per visą pandemijos laikotarpį iš viso užfiksuotas 1 172 991 pirminis ligos atvejis [3]. Kitų šalių tyrimai rodo, kad pokovidinis sindromas gali pasireikšti 62 proc. COVID-19 virusu sirgusių asmenų, o 7,2–30 proc. iš jų vargina smegenų rūkas [2, 4]. Taigi, Lietuvoje vien dėl COVID-19 infekcijos smegenų rūkas gali pasireikšti daugiau kaip 80 000 asmenų. Šis sutrikimas gali gerokai apsunkinti kasdienį gyvenimą, todėl būtina imtis prevencijos ir gydymo priemonių. Šiame straipsnyje aptariamos pagrindinės smegenų rūko priežastys, diagnostika ir naujausi įmonės „Aconitum“ sukurti prevenciniai preparatai.

Published: December 2023

2,2’-Bis(4-dimethylaminophenyl)- and 2,2'-dicyclohexyl-1,1',3,3'-tetramethyl-2,2',3,3'-tetrahydro-2,2'-bibenzo[d]imidazole ((N-DMBI)2 and (Cyc-DMBI)2) are quite strong reductants with effective potentials of ca. −2 V vs ferrocenium/ferrocene, yet are relatively stable to air due to the coupling of redox and bond-breaking processes. Here, we examine their use in accomplishing electron transfer-induced bond-cleavage reactions, specifically dehalogenations. The dimers reduce halides that have reduction potentials less cathodic than ca. −2 V vs ferrocenium/ferrocene, especially under UV photoexcitation (using a 365 nm LED). In the case of benzyl halides, the products are bibenzyl derivatives, whereas aryl halides are reduced to the corresponding arenes. The potentials of the halides that can be reduced in this way, quantum-chemical calculations, and steady-state and transient absorption spectroscopy suggest that UV irradiation accelerates the reactions via cleavage of the dimers to the corresponding radical monomers.

Authors: Bartáček Jan , Chlumský Karel , Mrkvička Jan , Paloušová Lucie , Sedlák Miloš , Drabina Pavel
Published: December 2023

The new chiral ligands I-III based on derivatives of imidazolidine-4-one were synthesised and characterised. The catalytic activity and enantioselectivity of their corresponding copper(II) complexes were studied in the asymmetric Henry reaction. It was found out that the enantioselectivity of these catalysts is very high overall and depends on the relative configuration of the ligand used; cis-configuration of ligand affords the nitroaldols with major enantiomer S- (up to 97 % ee), whereas the application of ligands with trans-configuration led to nitroaldols with major R-enantiomer (up to 96 % ee). The “proline-type” ligand IV was also tested in asymmetric aldol reaction. Under optimised reaction conditions, aldol products with enantioselectivity of up to 91 % ee were obtained.

Published: December 2023

Total Electron Content (TEC) is one of the most important parameters in the study of the ionosphere, especially for determining ionospheric disturbances. The TEC levels are typically estimated from dual-frequency GPS observation data. Since the measured TEC contains discrepancies such as satellite and receiver biases, they need to be removed to obtain more accurate TEC values. In this work, we estimate the receiver bias using a neural network technique. Based on the exhaustive evaluation, we design a neural network (NN) model with two-hidden layers, and it is trained with datasets from three GNSS observation stations in Thailand. The prediction from the proposed neural network deviates from the baseline reference using the minimum standard deviation method with significantly faster computational time. The trained NN model is also tested for estimating the receiver bias values at other untrained stations in Thailand.
Development of a Weighted Productivity Model for a Food Processing Industry
Authors: Kareem B , Ilori A S , Lawal A S
Published: December 2023

In this paper, the data collected from a food processing industry was used to calculate the total productivity. It presents a comprehensive model and methodology for defining and measuring productivity attributes in the food processing industry. The proposed productivity model encompasses seven key factor groups, namely labor, capital, material, energy, machines, facility maintenance, and worker stress levels. Each group is further disaggregated into individual factors, which are assigned specific weights. The mathematical expression of the productivity index model involves summing the weighted individual factors and dividing the result by the total number of group factors. In the case study conducted at a Nigerian food processing company, the developed model was applied to measure the productivity levels. The findings revealed that the current productivity of the company stands at approximately 90%. By utilizing the model, the parameters of productivity were measured, and the results were set as baseline values for future assessments.

A Spiritual and Intellectual Vagabond: The Chequered Career of Yves de Vallone (1666–1705)
Authors: McKENNA ANTONY
Published: December 2023

Yves de Vallone’s manuscript treatise
La Religion du chrétien conduit par la raison
éternelle has become something of a landmark in the history of free thought, since it bears witness to the erratic intellectual career of its author. Initially a canon of the Congregation of Sainte-Geneviève, Vallone denounces a Socinian plot led by the directors of the institution. He is persecuted and eventually escapes to Switzerland, then to Germany and finally to Holland, where he arrives in Zwolle at the height of the Leenhof controversy. He embarks on a “metaphysical” defence of Calvinist doctrine but is sharply criticized by Jacques Bernard and sanctioned by the council of the Walloon Church. His reaction is to read Spinoza, Richard Simon and Bayle and launch into the composition of his treatise, which is a radical attack on Christian doctrine and history.
Claude-Joseph Dorat’s
Les Tourterelles de Zelmis
: Working towards the Definitive
Authors: KIRSOP WALLACE
Published: December 2023

Claude-Joseph Dorat was a much-published author during, and for a decade or so after, his lifetime. Decried for frivolousness, superficiality and facility, he did not achieve the academic recognition he sought despite his quarrels with the
philosophes
. Obituaries in 1780 spoke of his carelessness and disinclination to revise his work, but people who knew him better asserted correctly that the reverse was the case. Study of his bibliography—a daunting field requiring much more effort—and of his revisions of several of his books has reinforced this view in recent decades. The particular case of
Les Tourterelles de Zelmis
, first published in 1765, amended more than once in the subsequent ten years and finally recast in 1780, confirms this view. The existence of a manuscript revision rounds out this example of an author constantly reshaping his creations.
Navigating Career: Deciphering the Narrative Strategies in Louis Freycinet’s
Navigation et Géographie
(1815)
Authors: WEST-SOOBY JOHN , FORNASIERO JEAN
Published: December 2023

The historical account of the Baudin expedition, the
Voyage de découvertes aux Terres Australes
, has attracted considerable critical attention, notably for the way in which its lead author, the zoologist François Péron, positions himself as narrator and protagonist. In contrast, the companion volume devoted to the nautical work of the expedition,
Navigation et Géographie
, compiled by Péron’s collaborator Louis Freycinet, has aroused little by way of commentary. No doubt the abundance of technical content has obscured its storyline, yet the fact that the author has chosen to revisit the voyage narrative from a different standpoint is of great interest in itself. To gain insight into Freycinet’s intentions, we examine the various strategies he deploys as he proceeds to construct his own distinct narrative persona. We show how he distances himself from the hero-victim strategy adopted by Péron, first by establishing his credentials as a professional navigator and cartographer, and second by positioning himself as a diligent and dispassionate servant of the national interest.
Strong Tidal Dissipation at Uranus?
Authors: Nimmo Francis
Published: December 2023

Geophysical estimates of paleo heat fluxes on the Uranian moons Miranda and Ariel are in the range of 25–75 mW m−2. For a canonical Uranus dissipation factor Q = 18,000, expected equilibrium tidal heating rates for these satellites are less than 6 mW m−2. At least for Ariel, this order-of-magnitude discrepancy can be resolved by positing a low Uranus Q ≈ 103 in the recent past and at the present day. Such a low Q (high dissipation) can be reconciled with an ancient origin of the Uranian satellites if Q is time-dependent, as exemplified by the “resonance-locking” hypothesis, and provides an additional constraint on the interior structure of the planet. A Q of 103 implies present-day migration rates for Miranda and Ariel of 5 and 11 cm yr−1, respectively, potentially detectable via astrometry.
The Diagnostic Value of ANA and Anti-SMA in Suspected Patients with Autoimmune Hepatitis
Authors: Prifti-Kurti Margarita , Sulcebe Genc , Ylli Zamira
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is an unknown chronic disease characterized by hepatocellular inflammation with a tendency to progress to cirrhosis. AIH can present with symptoms of acute hepatitis with symptoms of chronic liver disease. AIH occurs globally; it is more commonly found in females. Autoantibodies such as antinuclear, smooth muscle, liver kidney microsome, and soluble liver antigen are used to aid in the diagnosis of AIH, which presents with a variety of symptoms that also contribute to the classification of AIH.
AIM: Evaluation of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) and anti-smooth muscle antibodies (SMA) positivity in hepatic diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, viral hepatitis, and extra-hepatic diseases, providing better markers for the early diagnosis of AIH-type 1.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 207 individuals. 62.4% of them were female. Regarding the diagnoses, we grouped them into 4 groups: hepatic diseases (n = 73), viral hepatitis B and C (n = 54), gastrointestinal diseases (n = 34), and extra-hepatic diseases (n = 46). Serum levels of ANA and anti-SMA were measured using an indirect immunofluorescence method following the manufacturer’s instructions (Aesku Diagnostics, Germany). Fluorescence intensity was interpreted semi-quantitatively based on negative control (0) and positive control (+4).
RESULTS: The positivity of ANA and anti-SMA resulted as follows: In hepatic diseases 34.2% and 48%, in viral hepatitis B and C, ANA positivity was 14.8% and SMA positivity was 22.2%; in gastrointestinal diseases, ANA and SMA positivity were, respectively, 11.8% and 20.6%; and in  extrahepatic diseases, positivity of ANA resulted in 32.6% and SMA in 26%. When compared to the viral hepatitis patient group, the ANA specificity for hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) was 85.2% and that of anti-SMA was 77.8%. The analysis of 46 extrahepatic patient groups provided an ANA specificity of 67.4% and an anti-SMA specificity of 74% for HAI. The comparison to gastrointestinal disease showed that ANA specificity for HAI was 88.2% and anti-SMA specificity was 79.4%.
CONCLUSION: Diagnosing AIH is difficult because the clinical spectrum ranges from an asymptomatic presentation to an acute and severe disease. So in all cases, AIH must be suspected. Both males and females can develop AIH, but the disease is more common in females. Based on our diagnostic parameters, we can say that ANA and anti-SMA provide moderate sensitivity for AIH, but they are more specific to AIH type 1.

Background/Aims: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is less prevalent in females than males, but it affects mortality in females. There may be sex differences in the clinical characteristics of COPD.Methods: We analyzed the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey dataset from 2007 to 2018. We compared the clinical characteristics and comorbidities in subjects with COPD according to sex. We adjusted the multivariate logistic regression of lung cancer prevalence according to COPD and sex by age and smoking amount.Results: Females with COPD tended to be older than males with COPD (64.1 ± 0.4 yr vs. 62.3 ± 0.2 yr, respectively, p < 0.001). Approximately 89% of males with COPD had a smoking history, while 86% of females with COPD were non-smokers (p < 0.001). Household income was lower (p < 0.001) and asthma and overall malignancy were more prevalent in females with COPD than males with COPD (25.5 vs. 11.6%, respectively, p < 0.001; (6.3 vs. 5.4%, respectively, p < 0.001). However, lung cancer was more common in males with COPD than females with COPD (0.9 vs. 0.1%, respectively, p < 0.001). Lung cancer prevalence increased in males with moderate COPD compared to subjects without COPD (OR, 4.409; 95% CI, 1.741–9.419).Conclusions: Females with COPD had a lower smoking rate, household income, and lung cancer prevalence than males with COPD. More active COPD screening is needed for women of low socioeconomic status, even if they do not smoke.
Controlling the chaos and bifurcations of a discrete prey-predator model
Authors: Khan A. Q. , Alsulami Ibraheem M. , Hamdani S. K. A.
Published: December 2023

In this paper, we explore the existence of fixed points, local dynamics at fixed points, bifurcations and chaos of a discrete prey-predator fishery model with harvesting. More specifically, it is proved that, for all involved parameters, the model has trivial fixed point, but it has semitrivial and interior fixed points under definite parametric condition(s). We study the local behavior at fixed points by applying the theory of linear stability. Furthermore, it is shown that flip bifurcation does not occur at semitrivial and trivial fixed points, but that the model undergoes Neimark-Sacker bifurcation at interior fixed point. It is also proved that, at interior fixed point, the model undergoes the flip bifurcation. By using a feedback control strategy, the chaos control is also examined. Finally, to illustrate the theoretical findings, detailed numerical simulations are provided.
Le jeu vidéo comme objet culturel. Quelles perspectives pour l’hispanisme ?
Authors: Marti Marc
Published: December 2023

Le jeu vidéo, comme objet de recherche, questionne ce qui relève du domaine de l’empirique dans l’hispanisme, à savoir les frontières et le cadre général de la discipline. Après avoir défini ce qui constitue l’objet de recherche pour un hispaniste, nous essaierons de cerner au mieux l’objet jeu vidéo et ses spécificités culturelles et techniques. Nous terminerons par une analyse de quelques jeux « classiques » espagnols, qui nous amèneront à réfléchir sur le corpus potentiel que représenterait ce nouvel objet.
Jeux vidéo, localisation, traduction automatique et problèmes de genre
Authors: Ginel María Isabel Rivas , Theroine Sarah
Published: December 2023

L’industrie vidéoludique, considérée depuis longtemps comme un univers majoritairement masculin, évolue grâce à l’apparition d’un grand nombre de personnages féminins et même non binaires dans des jeux AAA. Cependant, l’adoption croissante des technologies de traduction automatique neuronale et les préjugés des genres qui en résultent constituent un nouvel obstacle. Dans cette communication, il sera question les résultats d’une étude comparative visant à évaluer la performance de trois outils de traduction automatique en termes des erreurs de genre dans la localisation d’un jeu vidéo espagnol qui contient des personnages non binaires, un personnage principal féminin et des animaux.
Céramique inédite d’époque punique de Moknine et de Smirat (Tunisie)
Authors: Sghaïer Yamen
Published: December 2023

La présence punique à Moknine et à Smirat est attestée exclusivement par le monde funéraire : des fouilles de sauvetage effectuées entre 1987 et 2001 ont permis la récupération de 38 vases découverts dans deux hypogées à Moknine et trois à Smirat. Les tombes de Moknine datent entre la fin du ive et le début du iiie s., tandis que la chronologie des hypogées de Smirat est le iiie s. av. J.-C. Cette recherche complète deux travaux antérieurs qui ont touché les nécropoles puniques de ces deux cités. L’intérêt de ce travail réside dans la confirmation des observations préalables sur le monde funéraire : à Moknine la dispersion géographique des espaces funéraires et à Smirat l’affirmation de la composition de la céramique avec la fréquence de la poterie modelée. L’étude de ces vases enrichit le dossier de la présence punique dans cette microrégion du Sahel.
De Tunes à Tunis : un chapiteau romain avec marque d’atelier remployé dans la mosquée Al-Kasr de Tunis
Authors: Chérif Ali
Published: December 2023

Les éléments antiques conservés ou remployés dans de nombreux monuments de la ville de Tunis méritent d’être catalogués et étudiés. Cette enquête, de longue haleine sans doute, n’a jamais été entreprise ; elle permettra peut-être d’éclairer, une fois accomplie, l’épineuse question de la provenance d’un nombre important de ces objets archéologiques : faudrait-il les considérer comme des vestiges de l’antique Tunes, ou devrait-on plutôt les attribuer à d’autres sites, en l’occurrence Carthage ? Ce problème se pose aussi pour l’inscription que nous publions ici, gravée sur un chapiteau corinthien remployé dans la mosquée Al-Kasr, non loin de Bab Mnara.
