GPT in Finance Forecasting
Authors: Zhang Boyu
Published: September 2024

As society evolves, more and more people will be predicting and examining the financial markets as it aids in decision making, risk management, and promoting economic growth and stability. Large amounts of historical data cannot keep up with the rapid changes in the markets, which can affect the accuracy of financial forecasts made using traditional methods, but GPT uses other artificial intelligence techniques to capture complex market relationships. These techniques can analyze large amounts of historical data and deal with anomalies to produce more accurate forecasts. In this paper, we will examine how GPT can be applied to financial forecasting. Firstly, the functionality and technical approach of GPT is introduced, followed by a study of GPT forecasting and application in financial markets, and problems and challenges of GPT are identified. It is found that GPT can successfully address the shortcomings of traditional financial forecasting by evaluating large amounts of textual data, capturing complex nonlinear correlations, and performing multifactor analysis. In addition, GPT can perform sentiment analysis, adapt to market changes in real time, and improve the accuracy and thoroughness of forecasts. When GPT is used in conjunction with traditional data to examine a variety of data sources and perform sentiment analysis, financial forecasting becomes more thorough and accurate. It improves the objectivity and real-time nature of forecasts by minimizing human bias and constantly updating models. To better adapt to market changes and improve the accuracy of financial forecasts, GPT integrates more data in the future.

Authors: Kişi Ömer , Gürdal Mehmet
Published: September 2024

This study focuses on developing and examining new definitions related to statistical convergence, modulus functions, and σ-density in 2-normed spaces. We explore various relationships between statistical f_σ-convergence, f_σ-statistical convergence, f_σ-statistically Cauchy sequences, f_σ-statistically bounded double sequences, and strongly f_(σ_s )-convergent double sequences in 2 normed spaces. Additionally, we analyze some topological properties associated with these concepts.
Problematizações sobre a Violência contra as Mulheres Negras no Contexto da Pandemia de Covid-19
Authors: Costa Renata Gomes da , Santos Paula Magalhães da Silva
Published: September 2024

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar o fenômeno da violência contra as mulheres negras na pandemia de Covid-19. O texto é fruto de uma pesquisa de trabalho de conclusão de curso que analisou a violência contra as mulheres negras na pandemia, no Rio de Janeiro. O recorte para o Rio de Janeiro se explica pelos dados apresentados pelo ISP/Mulher RJ, que apontavam uma diminuição de registros de ocorrência policial de casos de violência contra as mulheres no estado, contrastando com os dados nacionais sobre o aumento da violência neste período. A pesquisa examinou os dados a partir de uma análise teórico-empírica que problematiza as relações de gênero e étnico-raciais, o perfil da violência contra as mulheres e sua configuração em um contexto de pandemia. Um dos principais resultados aponta para que os estudos dos indicadores da violência considerem as particularidades de vida e de trabalho vividas pelas mulheres negras e problematizem a relação entre o isolamento social e a violência contra as mulheres.
Relações de Hospitalidade e Hostilidade entre Veganos e Onívoros em Práticas de Comensalidade: a Perspectiva Vegana
Authors: Lopes Mariana , Gimenes-Minasse Maria Henriqueta Sperandio Garcia
Published: September 2024

O veganismo tem como premissa excluir todas as formas de exploração e crueldade contra animais, seja na alimentação, no vestuário ou em qualquer outra finalidade, provocando, por consequência, uma série de desafios ao convívio social. Na prática da comensalidade, posturas alimentares diferentes podem despertar reações tanto de hospitalidade quanto de hostilidade. Este artigo, com base construtivista e de caráter qualitativo, tem como objetivo analisar as relações de comensalidade entre indivíduos veganos e onívoros sob a perspectiva da hospitalidade e da hostilidade na ótica de indivíduos veganos, a partir de uma pesquisa bibliográfica e entrevistas semiestruturadas com 12 indivíduos veganos. Os resultados indicam como principais desafios a aceitação dos novos hábitos por parte de amigos, familiares e colegas de trabalho, bem como eventuais constrangimentos nos momentos de comensalidade, inclusive pela falta de alimentos veganos disponíveis. Evidenciaram também que ações de hospitalidade propiciam reações igualmente hospitaleiras, enquanto ações de hostilidade geram reações igualmente hostis.
Provincializando a Sociedade de Risco e o Antropoceno: Uma Análise a Partir da "Geopolítica da Nuclearidade"
Authors: Paula Bruno Lucas Saliba de
Published: September 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho é questionar o caráter genérico de algumas concepções em torno da “sociedade de risco”. Para isso, apresentamos dados de uma pesquisa baseada em entrevistas semiestruturadas sobre a mineração de urânio em Caetité (BA). Argumentamos que o universalismo presente nas teorizações sobre riscos ambientais é decorrente de um viés eurocentrado que desconsidera situações de injustiças ambientais e a especificidade de contextos periféricos. Fundamentamos nosso posicionamento a partir do que denominamos “geopolítica da nuclearidade”, processo através do qual são obliterados os riscos de atividades nucleares e, consequentemente, ignoradas as vulnerabilidades de populações marginalizadas. Concluímos, então, que são necessárias perspectivas sensíveis à desigual distribuição de riscos entre centros e periferias, de forma a provincializar as teorizações sobre riscos ambientais.
New Resolution of Klein Paradox by Modified Dirac Equations
Authors: Karapetyan G. G.
Published: September 2024

We present a new resolution of the Klein paradox by considering the problem of
electron incidence on a step potential barrier using modified Dirac equations (MDE). Contrary to the generally accepted interpretation, which is based on the Dirac equation (DE) and predicts electron tunneling through an infinitely high barrier, our calculations show that tunneling is impossible if the electron kinetic energy is less than the barrier height. We propose to investigate MDE as an alternative DE relativistic quantum mechanical equation for spin ½ particles․

Baltic International Trawl Survey (BITS), är en internationellt koordinerad bottentrålsexpedition i Östersjön med torsk som primär målart. Expeditionen utförs två gånger årligen, i kvartal 1 och 4 och täcker egentliga Östersjön. Sju länder ingår i programmet. Rapporten redovisar expeditionen utförd med R/V Svea 20 februari-4 mars 2024. Sverige tilldelades 51 stationer. Totalt 59 stationer trålades med TV3L bottentrål i enlighet med metodik beskriven i BITS manual (ICES, 2017). Av dessa 59 stationer var två syrefria tråldrag (som ej trålades på grund av att syrekoncentrationen nära botten var nära 0), fem tråldrag som ogiltigförklarades. Ett kompletteringshal utfördes. Expeditionen täckte delar av subdivisionerna (SD) 24, 25, 27 och 28 i år. Akustiska data samlades in kontinuerligt under hela expeditionen. Totalfångsten 36 731 kg dominerades av sill, skarpsill, torsk och skrubbskädda. Under denna undersökning fångades totalt 26 olika fiskarter. Biologisk provtagning utfördes på torsk och skrubbskädda. Hydrografiska parametrar såsom salthalt, temperatur och syrekoncentration, observerades och mättes på samtliga trålstationer. I den här rapporten visas syrekoncentrationen ca 1 meter ovanför botten.
You & I. Mentalizing and stress regulation of people with mild to borderline intellectual disabilities
Authors:   , Derks Suzanne Divera Maria
Published: September 2024

Social and cognitive skills are vital for forming and maintaining relationships. People with mild to borderline intellectual disabilities have the opportunity to enrich their social relationships by actively refining their abilities in mentalizing and stress regulation. Addressing these challenges involves accurately assessing these abilities and developing tailored interventions, with serious games showing promise. However, reliable assessment tools for these skills, effective serious games tailored to this population, and a design model that takes into account user needs are lacking. This dissertation contributes to the understanding, measuring, and promoting of social-cognitive skills, and specifically mentalizing and stress regulation, in people with mild to borderline intellectual disabilities. It provides the first questionnaire, the adapted Reflective Functioning Questionnaire for adults with mild to borderline intellectual disabilities, and a new model for co-creative serious game development. In a randomized controlled trial, the effectiveness of the serious game ‘You & I’ was examined. The game shows to be a positively rated game, with a positive effect found on stress level, but no effects on mentalizing. Furthermore, there is evidence supporting the effectiveness of serious games for children with intellectual disabilities. The findings emphasize the potential of serious games but underscore the need for interventions which can effectively contribute to the improvement of the mentalizing in this population. In conclusion, the results of the current dissertation have relevant implications for both research and practice with the aim to contribute to the mentalizing and stress regulation of people with mild to borderline intellectual disabilities, enhancing successful social interactions and relationships.
Language Models as Measurement Tools
Authors:   , Laurer Moritz
Published: September 2024

From millions of social media posts, to decades of legal text - more and more relevant information is hidden in digital text corpora that are too large for manual analyses. The key promise of machine learning is to automate parts of the manual analysis process. One popular method is supervised machine learning for text classification, where a model is trained on examples of manually categorized texts and learns to identify these categories in new texts. Computational social scientists have used this method to create measurements of concepts such as emotions, topics or stances at scale.

While measurement with supervised machine learning is established in the social science literature, there are important limitations that reduce the usefulness of established methods for many practical applications. First, these methods require large amounts of balanced training data to work well. Researchers, however, often only have limited resources for creating training data and need to tailor new data to each new research question. Second, older algorithms struggle with multilingual data. Researchers, however, need measurements that are equally valid for different cultures and languages. Third, they are susceptible to learning shortcuts and biased patterns from their training data, reducing the validity of measurements across social groups. Fourth, they can be difficult to use, making them only accessible to specialised researchers.

This thesis demonstrates how a recent innovation from the natural language processing literature can address these limitations: instruction-based language models. Chapter 2 shows how this type of model can reduce the required training data by a factor of ten compared to previous algorithms, while achieving the same level of performance across eight tasks. Chapter 3 demonstrates how these models require less than 2000 examples in two languages to create valid measurements across eight other languages and ten other countries. Chapter 4 shows how these models are more robust against group-specific biases. Their average test-set performance only decreases marginally when trained on biased data in experiments across nine groups from four datasets. Chapter 5 explains how these models can be universal classifiers that can learn any number of classification tasks simultaneously in tests across 33 datasets with 389 classes.
From Smallest Software Particle to System Specification
Authors:   , Deckers Robertus Theodorus Christianus
Published: September 2024

Software development can be seen as a process in which the knowledge and decisions of a wide variety of people are integrated to produce a machine-readable specification. The majority of today's specification and programming languages are based on computer-oriented and mathematical concepts. Those languages are difficult for people that are not a software professional.

Domain models and domain-specific languages are a way to capture knowledge from people who have no software expertise, while also resulting in specifications that can be used as software. This thesis reports on the creation of a domain-oriented method to systematically transform knowledge and decisions of all people involved in a development process, into unambiguous specifications.

A systematic literature review revealed that existing domain-oriented techniques have a low engineering maturity, are barely connected to human communication and thinking, and lack methodical support for applying domain models and domain-specific languages to create system specifications.

This thesis describes how these three problems are addressed by a method called MuDForM. 25 years of modeling and specification experience was captured in a method definition and gradually improved, driven by the outcome of case studies and shortcomings of existing methods. A reflection on the method from the perspective of cognitive science and linguistics concludes this thesis, demonstrating the feasibility of cognition-based specifications.

The result is a method with a uniform metamodel with precise modeling concepts, a process that guides the path from knowledge elicitation to engineered model, and a set of principles that enable implementation and improvement of the method. The method can be seen as a step in transforming a computer-centered and mathematics-oriented discipline, into one that facilitates knowledge and decision specification for all people involved in software development.

Nghiên cứu này tập trung vào việc đánh giá diễn biến đường bờ và ổn định bờ sông Hậu đoạn từ tỉnh An Giang đến cửa sông (cửa Định An và Trần Đề). Ảnh Lansat (2000-2023) được thu thập và phân tích bằng phương pháp NDWI và công cụ QGIS và Google Earth Pro để tính tốc độ thay đổi đường bờ sông và đánh giá mức độ sạt lở và hành lang an toàn sông. Song song đó, các số liệu về địa hình, địa chất, thủy văn cũng được thu thập để đánh giá ổn định bờ sông dưới tác động của tải trọng. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy tốc độ sạt lở trung bình khoảng 3-5 m/năm tại các điểm nóng trên sông Hậu, gây mất đất canh tác và đe dọa nhà cửa của người dân ven sông. Các tỉnh dọc sông Hậu đều có tình trạng vi phạm hành lang an toàn sông, trong đó tỉnh An Giang có mức vi phạm dài nhất, lên tới 37,87km. Ngoài ra, mức độ ổn định bờ sông tại năm vị trí khảo sát qua các tỉnh tương đối thấp. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy tầm quan trọng của việc lập kế hoạch bảo vệ bờ sông và quản lý đất ven sông (hành lang an toàn) để đảm bảo an toàn cho cộng đồng và cơ sở hạ tầng ven sông.

Published: September 2024

Expõe-se uma leitura do mais recente livro de Habermas (2023). Entende-se que, ao discutir as “plataformas digitais de conteúdo” como uma “nova mudança estrutural da esfera pública”, Habermas mostra o cume de sua trajetória. Dividido em três partes, apresenta-se a viragem reconstrutiva de Habermas como uma demonstração dos limites da abordagem sobre a “mudança estrutural da esfera pública” (1), avalia-se os aspectos do mais recente livro, mostrando a perspectiva da esfera semipública como resultante da plataformização dos sistemas de mídia (2) e demonstra-se como a crítica dialética da EPC apresenta uma avaliação mais abrangente das “plataformas digitais de conteúdo” (3).
Fetichismo tecnológico no capitalismo de plataforma

O presente artigo investiga o fetichismo tecnológico no capitalismo de plataforma. Inspirado no fetichismo da mercadoria marxiano, argumenta-se que o sistema do capital esconde sob um “véu tecnológico” as relações sociais na tentativa constante de ocultar o trabalho humano como fonte vital e crucial de valorização do capital e de sustentação de toda economia contemporânea, sem o qual desmorona. Conclui afirmando pela necessidade de uma concepção crítica da tecnologia, dos algoritmos e da inteligência artificial, desvelando ideologias e propagandas tecnoliberais como forma de resistência e ampliação da proteção do trabalho humano, principal objeto do Direito do Trabalho.

Published: September 2024

A discussão sobre Inteligência Artificial deve considerar que o desenvolvimento tecnológico não se dá simplesmente como autodesenvolvimento. No capitalismo, volta-se à busca para ampliar a exploração do trabalho, aumentar margens de lucro e servir como arma nas disputas intercapitalistas. Para tanto, progressivamente a ciência passa a ser incorporada como uma força produtiva a serviço do capital, facilitando formas de captura dos conhecimentos dos trabalhadores, que passam a ser plasmados em máquinas. Como se vê nos debates sobre IA, estas são tidas como portadoras de inteligência, numa clara fetichização da tecnologia que oculta a essência do fenômeno.

LIMITATIONS AND PROBLEMS OF SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE URAL FEDERAL DISTRICT
Authors: Моторин А.С.
Published: September 2024

Целью статьи является определение ограничений и проблем развития малого бизнеса в России на примере Уральского федерального округа (УрФО). На основании анализа данных, содержащихся в Едином реестре субъектов малого и среднего предпринимательства, а также анализа научных источников, были выявлены следующие ключевые проблемы и ограничения развития малого бизнеса, характерные для исследуемого региона: ограниченное участие в программах партнерства и государственных закупках; низкая активность в сфере контрактных и тендерных процедур; логистические и географические барьеры; конкуренция с более привлекательными регионами. Показано, что для преодоления данных проблем на региональном уровне необходимо повышать осведомленность предпринимателей о реализуемых мерах поддержки, упрощать процедуры участия в конкурсах и государственных закупках, внедрять квоты и льготные условия для малого бизнеса. Государственная политика также должна быть нацелена на маркетинг Уральского федерального округа как благоприятного региона для развития малого бизнеса, поддержку экспортных инициатив, развитие субконтрактации и локализации производств. Сделано предположение, что реализация данных мероприятий позволит преодолеть имеющиеся ограничения развития малого бизнеса и позволит региону обеспечить необходимые для устойчивого развития условия.

The purpose of the article is to identify the limitations and problems of small business development in Russia using the example of the Ural Federal District (UrFD). Based on the analysis of the data contained in the Unified Register of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, as well as the analysis of scientific sources, the following key problems and limitations of small business development characteristic of the studied region were identified: limited participation in partnership programs and public procurement; low activity in the field of contract and tender procedures; logistical and geographical barriers; competition with more attractive regions. It is shown that in order to overcome these problems at the regional level, it is necessary to raise awareness of entrepreneurs about the implemented support measures, simplify procedures for participation in tenders and public procurement, introduce quotas and preferential conditions for small businesses. Government policy should also focus on marketing the Ural Federal District as a favorable region for small business development, support for export initiatives, development of subcontracting and localization of production. It is assumed that the implementation of these measures will overcome the existing limitations of small business development and will allow the region to provide the conditions necessary for sustainable development.
A Parametric Model Proposal for Energy-Efficient Building Design in the Cold-Arid Climate Region: A Case on Tabriz
Authors: Shadmand Abbas , Arslan Selçuk Semra
Published: September 2024

Built environments are responsible for significant global energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and environmental problems. Due to the rapid increase in the population in cities, the unplanned construction of the housing need has a share that must be addressed in the emergence of these problems. Therefore, today, the energy-efficient design of new settlements has become a current and essential approach. It has made it necessary to consider the decisions taken regarding the factors affecting building energy consumption before the design. In this direction, the effects of design parameters such as window ratio, balcony depth, material type, material color, insulation used, number of floors, basement floor usage, aspect ratio, and building orientation status on energy performance in the city of Tabriz with a cold-arid climate were analyzed with the Design-Builder program. Then, suitable criteria to reduce energy consumption were searched. By comparing the results obtained from the analyses, the effect of the appropriate architectural decisions regarding these parameters on energy saving has been determined, a guide for designing energy-efficient buildings has been created, and a model proposal has been provided.

Authors: Alamsyahbana Muhammad Isa , Siregar Juliani Sari , Antania Livia
Published: September 2024

This study aims to explore circular solutions for economic growth and decent work, drawing insights from SDG 8. Embracing a circular economy can promote sustainable development by decoupling economic growth from resource depletion and environmental degradation. Circular practices benefit SDG 8 by creating new job opportunities, fostering innovation, and achieving inclusive economic growth. From an accounting perspective, the study investigates how these circular economy practices impact financial reporting and cost management. By examining the costs associated with recycling, reuse, and recovery of materials and their effects on production expenses and revenues, this research connects circular economy initiatives to sustainable accounting practices. Collaboration among stakeholders - government, private sector, civil society, and the public - is vital for successful implementation. Through collective efforts, Indonesia can move towards a more sustainable and inclusive economy, prioritizing decent work opportunities and environmental responsibility. This study recommends how accounting frameworks can be adapted to reflect the economic and environmental benefits of circular practices, ensuring that financial reporting supports sustainable development goals.

The paper analyzes artefacts from the Late Neolithic child burial of the Ust-Zelinda-2 site (Ust-Ilimsk District, Irkutsk Region, Russia). Some features of the burial practice (burial in a pit, secondary burial, manipulation with a skull, burial with an animal) and a rather diverse set of grave goods allow to consider the grave as a complex with traces of a non-typical handling of child’s remains. The central place in the complex was given to a paddle carved from moose antler. It was placed in the “belly” area of the buried. Technical-technological analysis, wear traces as well as ethnographic examples of Siberian ritual attributes allow to consider it as a shamanic beater. Analysis of the position of the moose teeth in the burial suggests, hypothetically, the existence of another shamanic item - a tambourine, where teeth played the role of sound pendants, as well as allows to reconstruct its shape and dimensions. A research of internal features of ethnographic tambourines suggested an evolution line of sound pendants in tambourines from animal teeth to metal items. A complex analysis of all data defined the buried child as a person with special social status and the set of grave goods as the child’s heritage. At present time, this set of shamanic attributes is the earliest one in the Baikal Region and dates to the middle — the second part of IV Millennium BC.
Traditional Set of Black-Glazed Vessels in Greek Burial Complexes of the Asian Bosporus of the Late 6th — Late 4th Centuries BC (Based on the Materials from the Volna 1 Necropolis)
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Egorova Tatyana
Published: September 2024

The article compares a collection of black-glazed pottery from 175 burials and funerary complexes in the necropolis of the Volna 1 settlement, located in the south-western part of the Taman Peninsula (excavations of 2015 and 2016). These burials, including 337 black-glazed vessels, date back to the end of the 6th to the end of the 4th centuries BC. There are a total of 36 types and variations of vessels used for drinking, food and miniature containers for oil and perfume. The composition generally aligns with the main ceramic products found in the funerary rites of ground necropolises in the Asian Bosporus region, but it also has its own unique characteristics influenced by the chronology and some regional traits of the site.
Late Scythian Settlements and Houses in North-West Crimea: “Internal Evolution” and Mechanisms of Antique Impact
Authors:   Centre for Egyptological Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Antonov Egor
Published: September 2024

The purpose of this article is to present the historical interpretation of the changes in architectural treatment of the Late Scythian settlements and houses in North-West Crimea over time. The author generalizes the main trends of these changes, analyzes the facts that deviate from these trends, and studies the analogies. This allows him to define the evolution of the late Scythian architecture, which likely occurred as a result of internal development and influence from the ancient Greeks. The two potential mechanisms of this influence, specifically the two programs of settlement organization in North-West Crimea, in which Greek architects could have been involved, are reconstructed. The first of these programs could have been implemented under Skiluros, and the second under the control of Pontus.
God, Hero, King? Imagery of ‘Pearson Wearing Helmet’ on the Coins of Seleukos I
Authors:   Southern Federal University, Dedyulkin Anton , Smirnov Svyatoslav ,   Institute of World History, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: September 2024

The paper analyses the iconography and archaeology of the Seleucid ‘Nike crowning trophy’ coin type. This coin type features a deified male portrait (referred to as the ‘person wearing helmet’) on the obverse and Nike, crowning a trophy, on the reverse. It was minted for a brief period in the late 4th century BC at the Susa mint. Despite being locally circulated with a relatively limited volume of issues, this motif significantly contributed to the visual representation of the royal power of Seleucus. One of the main challenges in interpreting this coin type is identifying the helmeted head. The helmet of the ‘unknown’ figure is of significant interest due to numerous direct and indirect parallels in iconography and archaeological finds. Similar helmets are depicted on tomb sculptures and reliefs from Macedonia, Asia Minor, and the Eastern Mediterranean. Special attention deserves the decoration of the helmet surface, such as the leopard skin spots, which is in agreement with the painted and textile-covered armor of this time. Considering the symbolism and semantics of this character’s image, it is preferable to define him as an idealized representation of King Seleucus, incorporating features of Dionysus, Heracles, and Alexander —four conquerors of India and the East in general.

Published: September 2024

This article presents the iconographic analysis and contextualization of a unique object in the archaeology of the Eurasian steppes: a particular kind of sword, also known as an akinakes, identified during regular excavations in the Filippovka-I cemetery. The ritual sword was found in Barrow 4, Burial 2, and features an elaborate iconographic scheme made of gold which is used for the decoration of both sides of the blade and the handle of the object. The paper provides categorization and precise analysis of the scenes and figures represented on the blade which, although apparently difficult to interpret, are in fact characterized by a series of repetitive patterns alternating with single scenes of a more “ritual” character. In addition, a new analysis of the sword’s chronology and its general contextualization are proposed.

The article publishes 8 letters from the founder of the Kherson Museum and its first director V. I. Goshkevich to the curator of Russian Historical Museum V. A. Gorodtsov. The Kiev and Kherson periods of Goshkevich’s life and work are considered — the years of study at the Kyiv Theological Seminary and the University of St. Vladimir, choosing a path in science, working in the Kherson Provincial Statistical Committee and creating an archaeological museum with it. The dialogue was started on the initiative of Goshkevich, who was attracted by Gorodtsov’s work on ancient ceramics in Russia. The Kherson Museum received a donation of the main printed works of the curator of Russian Historical Museum. Considerable attention is paid in the article to the comparative biography of both scientists. The destinies of Goshkevich and Gorodtsov have many similarities: both are from a family of clergy, studied in theological seminaries, and made their way into science with considerable difficulties. Gorodtsov was helped along this path by the patronage of the chairman of the Moscow Archaeological Society, Countess P. S. Uvarova, who opened up wide opportunities for excavations in various regions of the empire for the career officer and then keeper of the Russian Historical Museum. Goshkevich took a lot of effort and time with the creation and functioning of the Kherson Archaeological Museum and the routine work of collecting materials for the archaeological map of the Black Sea region. These endeavors became the main meaning of his life and work. Goshkevich’s works were continued by I. V. Fabritsius, A. V. Dobrovolsky and subsequent generations of researchers.
Attribution of Beads from the Cemetery Filippovka 2 in the Southern Urals
Authors:   State Research Institute for Restoration, Anikeeva Olga
Published: September 2024

This article presents the results of a comprehensive study of beads uncovered during the excavations of the burial mounds of early nomads in the Southern Urals (located in the Orenburg region). A mineralogical and technological study allowed for the classification of all beads according to their materials and manufacturing techniques. Possible production centers have been hypothesized based on comparing published beads of the same age from the Eastern Mediterranean, Near and Middle Asia, Persia, India, Egypt, Caucasus, Southern Europe, and the Northern Black Sea coast. A comparison of the obtained results with the distributional nature of studied bead types in early nomad burials of the Southern Urals shows the chronological order of their appearance in this region. Clarifying the location of some bead types in the funerary complexes in situ and the semantics of certain bead shapes determine the meaning of sacred beads and their use in religious rituals and ceremonies of early Sarmatians.
Suvorovo Type Belts (for the study of the Volga-Ural paramilitary elite of the 4 th century AD)
Authors:   Institute of Archaeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Gavritukhin Igor
Published: September 2024

Several Azelino sites yielded Suvorovo-type belts. These belts are characterized by a combination of B-shaped buckles, strap-ends with curved sides, belt mounts in the form of two lozenges. There is a correlation between the contents of the belt set and the warrior’s status. Similar belt sets are found in the Mazunino culture, Upper-Sura group of the Ancient-Mordva culture, and the late Sarmatian Suslovo burial ground. All of them are parallel lines of development based on local and late Sarmatian traditions and are dated from the 1st half to the 3rd quarter of the 4th century. It was the heyday of the cultures and of the Kama and Upper Sura regions; the Suvorovo circle belts are associated with their paramilitary elite. Most of the population actively using such belts was exterminated around the end of the 3rd quarter of the 4th century by interacting local military troops and steppe troops related with the Huns, therefore the tradition of making the belts in question also stopped.
Pontil Marks on the Vessels from Frontovoe 3 Necropolis in the South-Western Crimea as a Source for Investigating Glassworkers’ Tools and Technological Traditions
Authors:   Institute of Archaeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Rumyantseva Olga
Published: September 2024

Pontil, an essential glassworking tool, was widely used in Roman time Europe from the 3rd quarter of the first century. It was used for the hot working of the rim and other vessel parts after it was separated from the blowpipe. There are several basic types of pontil marks. It was also possible to make a blown vessel without using a pontil. Different types of pontil marks as well as methods of manufacturing blown glass vessels without a pontil have been examined for the vessels of the Frontovoe 3 necropolis (late 1st — late 4th/early 5th c. AD), which has been exhaustively excavated in the SW Crimea. Although the pontil was already widely in use when the necropolis of Frontovoe emerged, near a half of balsamaria from the graves of the late 1st — mid-3rd c. AD has no pontil mark; tableware without a pontil mark is less common. The annular marks were the earliest; solid marks appear in the mid-/late 2nd c. From the second half of the 3rd century, vessels without pontil marks and with cracked-off rims appear here. All three technological traditions coexist up to the final stage of the necropolis. The difference in the pontil mark types for two of the most frequent types of beakers, likely locally made in SW Crimea, suggest their different producers (workshops).

Improving the Conceptual Knowledge of an Infant with Age-Appropriate Picture Books
Authors: Çer Erkan
Published: September 2024

The purpose of this study was to improve the conceptual development of an infant through age-appropriate picture books, as well as potentially reveal the effects of such books for developing concepts in children’s literature. Study participants used the changing criterion design from single-case research models that consisted of 1 infant and 3 infants between 0–24 months old to ensure the social validity of the study. Age-appropriate informational and fiction picture books were given to the infant observed during the 0–24-month period. The results revealed that the single infant’s conceptual knowledge in recipient and expressive language was improved more regularly and systematically compared with age-appropriate picture books under the guidance of parents. These findings provide evidence that infants’ conceptual knowledge can be improved through age-appropriate picture books, as well as that both informational and fiction books can be used to effectively expose infants to different concepts. The findings of this study permit the examination of the concept development process in children belonging to different age groups.
