Objectives:

Trauma is one of the leading causes of death and its incidence increases annually. The “weekend effect” and “holiday season effect” on traumatic injury mortality remain controversial, whereby traumatic injury patients admitted during weekends and/or holiday season have a higher risk of in-hospital death. The present study is aimed to explore the association between “weekend effect” and “holiday season effect” and mortality in traumatic injury population.

Materials and Methods:

This retrospective descriptive study included patients from the Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital Trauma Database between January 2009 and June 2019. The exclusion criterion was age of < 20 years. The primary outcome was the in-hospital mortality rate. The secondary outcomes included intensive care unit (ICU) admission, ICU re-admission, length of stay (LOS) in the ICU, ICU admission duration ≥ 14 days, total hospital LOS, total hospital LOS ≥ 14 days, need for surgery, and re-operation rate.

Results:

In this study, 11,946 patients were included in the analysis, and 8143 (68.2%) patients were admitted on weekdays, 3050 (25.5%) on weekends, and 753 (6.3%) on holidays. Multivariable logistic regression revealed that the admission day was not associated with an increased risk of in-hospital mortality. In other clinical outcome analyses, we found no significant increase in the risk of in-hospital mortality, ICU admission, ICU LOS ≥ 14 days, or total LOS ≥ 14 days in the weekend and holiday season groups. The subgroup analysis showed that the association between holiday season admission and in-hospital mortality was noted only in the elderly and shock condition populations. The holiday season duration did not differ in terms of in-hospital mortality. Longer holiday season duration was also not associated with an increased risk of in-hospital mortality, ICU LOS ≥14 days, and total LOS ≥14 days.

Conclusion:

In this study, we did not find any evidence that weekend and holiday season admissions in the traumatic injury population were associated with an increased risk of mortality. In other clinical outcome analyses, there was no significant increase in the risk of in-hospital mortality, ICU admission, ICU LOS ≥ 14 days, or total LOS ≥ 14 days in the weekend and holiday season groups.
Fundamental Properties of Basic Slc-Trivial Fibrations I
Authors: Fujino Osamu
Published: July 2022

We introduce the notion of basic slc-trivial fibrations. It is a generalization of Ambro’s lc-trivial fibrations. Then we study fundamental properties of basic slc-trivial fibrations by using the theory of variations of mixed Hodge structure on cohomology with compact support. More precisely, we prove that the moduli part of a basic slc-trivial fibration is b-potentially nef. Note that the notion of basic slc-trivial fibrations is closely related to that of normal irreducible quasi-log canonical pairs. So the results obtained in this paper will play an important role in the theory of quasi-log schemes. Here we give a structure theorem for normal irreducible quasi-log canonical pairs as an application of the main theorem. This result makes the theory of quasi-log schemes more powerful and more flexible.

Various constructions for quantum groups have been generalized to

\imath

-quantum groups. Such a generalization is called an

\imath

-program. In this paper, we fill one of the parts in the

\imath

-program. Namely, we provide an equivariant K-theory approach to

\imath

-quantum groups, which is the Langlands dual picture of that constructed in Bao et al. (Transform. Groups

\imath

-quantum groups is provided by using perverse sheaves. As an application of the main results, we prove Li’s conjecture (Li, Represent. Theory

Published: July 2022

В работе изучаются полуконечные гармонические функции на графе зигзагов, отвечающем правилу Пьери для фундаментальных квазисимметрических функций $\{F_{\lambda}\}$. Основная задача, которую мы решаем, состоит в том, чтобы описать неразложимые полуконечные гармонические функции на этом графе. Мы показываем, что такие функции находятся в естественной биекции с некоторыми комбинаторными данными, так называемыми полуконечными моделями роста зигзагов. Кроме того, мы предъявляем конструкцию, которая строит неразложимую полуконечную гармоническую функцию на графе зигзагов по каждой полуконечной модели роста. Мы также устанавливаем полуконечный аналог теоремы о кольце Вершика-Керова.
Усреднение уравнений типа Шрeдингера: операторные оценки при учете корректоров
Authors: Suslina Tatiana Aleksandrovna
Published: July 2022

В $L_2(\mathbb{R}^d;\mathbb{C}^n)$ рассматривается самосопряженный эллиптический дифференциальный оператор $A_\varepsilon$ второго порядка. Предполагается, что коэффициенты оператора $A_\varepsilon$ периодичны и зависят от $\mathbf x/\varepsilon$, где $\varepsilon>0$ - малый параметр. Изучается поведение операторной экспоненты $e^{-iA_\varepsilon\tau}$ при малом $\varepsilon$ и $\tau\in\mathbb{R}$. Результаты применяются к исследованию поведения решения задачи Коши для уравнения типа Шрeдингера $i\partial_\tau \mathbf{u}_\varepsilon(\mathbf x,\tau)=-(A_\varepsilon{\mathbf u}_\varepsilon)(\mathbf x,\tau)$ с начальными данными из специального класса. При фиксированном $\tau$ и $\varepsilon\to0$ решение ${\mathbf u}_\varepsilon(\cdot,\tau)$ сходится в $L_2(\mathbb{R}^d;\mathbb{C}^n)$ к решению усредненной задачи; погрешность имеет порядок $O(\varepsilon)$. Получены аппроксимации решения ${\mathbf u}_\varepsilon(\cdot,\tau)$ в $L_2(\mathbb{R}^d;\mathbb{C}^n)$ с погрешностью $O(\varepsilon^2)$ и в $H^1(\mathbb{R}^d;\mathbb{C}^n)$ с погрешностью $O(\varepsilon)$. В этих аппроксимациях учитываются корректоры. Отслежена зависимость погрешностей от $\tau$.

В работе определена параметрическая иерархия Кортевега-де Фриза, зависящая от бесконечного набора градуированных параметров $a = (a_4,a_6,…)$. Показано, что для любого рода $g$ гиперэллиптическая функция Клейна $\wp_{1,1}(t,\lambda)$, определенная на основе многомерной сигмa-функции $\sigma(t, \lambda)$, где $t = (t_1, t_3,…, t_{2g-1})$, $\lambda = (\lambda_4, \lambda_6,…, \lambda_{4 g + 2})$, задает решение этой иерархии, в которой параметры $a$ заданы в виде полиномов от параметров $\lambda$ сигма-функции.
Доказательство использует результаты о семействе операторов, введенных В. М. Бухштабером и С. Ю. Шориной. Это семейство состоит из $g$ дифференциальных операторов третьего порядка от $g$ переменных. Такие семейства определены для всех $g \geqslant 1$, в каждом из них операторы коммутируют попарно, а также коммутируют с оператором Шрeдингера.
В настоящей работе описана связь этих семейств с параметрической иерархией Кортевега-де Фриза. Построено аналогичное бесконечное семейство операторов третьего порядка от бесконечного набора переменных. Полученные результаты распространены на случай такого семейства.

Published: July 2022

Agriculture and farming as a backbone of many developing countries provides food safety and security. Arecanut being a major plantation in India, take part an important role in the life of the farmers. Arecanut growth monitoring and harvesting needs skilled labors and it is very risky since the arecanut trees are very thin and tall. A vision-based system for agriculture and farming gains popularity in the recent years. Segmentation is a fundamental task in any vision-based system. A very few attempts been made for the segmentation of arecanut bunch and are based on hand-crafted features with limited performance. The aim of our research is to propose and develop an efficient and accurate technique for the segmentation of arecanut bunches by eliminating unwanted background information. This paper presents two deep-learning approaches: Mask Region-Based Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN) and U-Net for the segmentation of arecanut bunches from the tree images without any pre-processing. Experiments were done to estimate and evaluate the performances of both the methods and shows that Mask R-CNN performs better compared to U-Net and methods that apply segmentation on other commodities as there were no bench marks for the arecanut.
Processed Modernity: Cooking Ingredients and the Materiality of Food
Authors: Ayora-Diaz Steffan Igor
Published: July 2022

In this paper I examine the meanings and values articulated through the use of preserved and (ultra)processed foods in everyday cooking in Mérida, Yucatán. Most studies on the practices deployed in the kitchen have tended to focus on cooking instruments and appliances, as well as on the part played by cookbooks and other instruments in the reproduction of culinary knowledges and practices. In contrast, here I focus on the very ingredients used in by cooks, arguing that through their materiality and their aesthetics, cooking ingredients contribute to the objectification of local values. The choice of ingredients by one or another cook expresses values such as “modern” and cosmopolitan, and simultaneously support claims of “authenticity” and “tradition,” and thus are lived as constitutive of regional identity. The use of preserved and processed foods is a common practice in Yucatán’s domestic and restaurant kitchens, which, as elsewhere, has historical grounds. There have been in the city of Mérida, since the turn of the twentieth century, industrial plants making beer, cookies and crackers, vegetable oils, soda drinks, chili pepper sauces, and recados (different pastes of spices). More recently, local industries have begun to package local dishes to sell them frozen, canned or vacuum-packed in plastic containers. I argue that these ingredients are important in transforming the local taste of and for Yucatecan food, and that, as objects that receive and give meaning to regional culinary culture, they become an important locus for the discursive and praxis-based negotiations of local forms of “modernity.”
Study of Restoration of the Historic Building

Published: July 2022

Thousands of years have passed since the construction of historic buildings or monuments, and they are often the most enduring and well-known symbols of former civilizations. It is vital that these national emblems of cultural and historical significance be preserved for future generations. Each heritage structure has its own distinctive characteristics and aesthetic finishes, as well as its own set of conservation concerns that necessitate innovative solutions. Pollution, age, fire, catastrophic occurrences such as earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, cyclones, soil-structure interaction (soil settlement, etc.), structural flaws, and a variety of other variables all contribute to the degradation of structures. Historic buildings are important monuments, thus this will be a severe setback for the country. It is critical to choose the right technique for restoration based on the parent structure's look. The new techniques must be compatible with the structure. This paper focuses on such challenges and corrective techniques to solve them while keeping the cultural integrity of the structure.

In recent years, technology has required workplace learning, continuous professional development, and general training of employees. However, little research has been done in this area to evaluate the methods and effectiveness of these teaching styles and is welcomed by learners. Learning collection designers often use identical policy collections, targeting students or testifying to the success of younger learning students. The word used to describe the education of a very mature learner (mostly in the workplace) of androgyny (according to the knowledge of androgyny knowledge) should have a variety of experiences, while students have only a limited amount so should be basic. The concept of opportunities for learning is borrowed from classroom discourses and expands its understanding of "socially identifiable and identifiable event", including cultural and environmental aspects such as content, time and participant. In this study, teachers are used to examine the sequence of opportunities available to them as they rebuild their roles as learners through relationships with their immediate social and physical contexts.

Published: July 2022

Catchment classification is one approach in natural resource management that is widely adopted in taking efficient steps towards implementing suitable soil and water conservation measures across a basin or region. Catchments have unique characteristics emerging from the heterogeneity and complexity of the systems and classifying them paves way to achieve order and simplicity. However, some constraints related to data availability could be a problem in a region where only few rivers are gauged and with only one type of climate data available. This study presents a way to decrease complexity by grouping these catchments based on their biophysical characteristics extracted from readily available datasets and using simple statistical approaches. Principal component analysis was first conducted to twenty-four biophysical variables which were reduced to eight factor components. A hierarchical clustering method was then performed to define the number of clusters and K-means clustering procedure was followed for the final grouping. Nine watershed clusters were formed with watershed size having the greatest contribution. Grouping catchments into clusters with similar biophysical characteristics does not only promote simplicity but also facilitates understanding of the nature of not only one watershed but also its relationship with other watersheds in a bigger landscape. The study also confirmed that spatially close watersheds exhibit similar characteristics.

Published: July 2022

Air pollution is a major concern worldwide with human activities being the main contributor and causing serious health impacts. The present study was designed to monitor the amount of gaseous pollutants (CO2, CO, SO2, NOX) and total suspended particulates (TSP) from different industrial boiler’s exhaust using three fuel types (coal, natural gas and heavy furnace oil/diesel). These five parameters were measured and compared with the National Environmental Quality Standards (NEQS) of Pakistan. Coal and diesel boilers were emitting more SO2 (22x) as compared to natural gas. The natural gas boilers were producing more CO (7x) due to inefficient combustion and low mixing of air into gaseous fuel. The concentration of NOx from all boiler types were within the standard value. TSP values ranged from 82.3 mg m-3 to 245.7 mg m-3, which were within the NEQS limits due to the presence of control devices. Workers’ health (n=42) was assessed using a questionnaire and health of many workers was found to be compromised (34 %), while most of them were either unaware or were not provided PPEs (37.5%). Consequently, the workers were being exposed to large amounts of hazardous emissions in the industry.

A prototype Malayalam to Indian Sign Language (ISL) Automatic Translator
Authors: Joy Jestin , Balakrishnan Kannan , M Sreeraj
Published: July 2022

Sign Language is one of the major mediums of communication for deaf people. It uses gestures which makes use of hand, facial expression and other body parts to convey meaning. The use of parallel modification as opposed to the sequential nature of spoken language makes it difficult for efficient representation. This calls for the development of animation techniques for representing signs which can easily model human gestures. This paper presents a prototype Malayalam language text to Indian Sign Language (ISL) automatic translation system. The proposed system takes Malayalam text as input and generates corresponding Indian Sign Language (ISL) signs as output. Output animation is rendered using a computer-generated model. This system will help to disseminate information to deaf people in public utility places like railways, banks, hospitals etc. This will also act as an educational tool.
Network Topology Classification in SDN Ecosystem using Machine Learning
Authors: AHIRE KAVITA , Yadav Jyoti
Published: July 2022

To meet the increasing network demands of enterprise environments and data centers, traditional network architectures have been replaced by software-enabled hardware devices for developing agile, dynamic, and programmable networks. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a new paradigm shift that abstracts network design and infrastructure in the software and then implements it by using software across hardware devices. SDN is used to build and manage the network in a customized way. SDN architecture offers network virtualization, network programmability, and flexibility by decoupling control and data planes which further enriches the network performance. As such, the SDN controller is a tactical control point in SDN. An SDN normally allows data flow control to the switches and/or routers and the rationale of the application's logic for deploying intelligent networks. SDN with Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques build network models, which essentially can take decisions based on self-learning and self-management capabilities. Accurate classification of topology is of prime importance to satisfy future network prerequisites like unpredictable traffic patterns, dynamic scaling, flexibility, and centralized control. The controller needs to have exact information about the topology of the network in order to configure and manage the network. Subsequently, topology classification is an important component of any Software Defined Network architecture. This paper presents the classification of topologies using different supervised ML algorithms. The accuracy obtained from Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Classification and Regression (CART) is 95% and 90% respectively.  The experimental results show that according to the k Cross-Fold validation technique, SVM algorithm has been found to be the most accurate amongst the other ML algorithms with a mean accuracy value of 85%.

Gravity Propulsion Space Travel
Authors:   Wayne State University, Detroit, MI, USA, Brierly Joseph E
Published: July 2022

For thousands of years science assumed that the natural force known as gravity was an attraction force. In a previous article it was shown that gravity is a repulsion force rather than an attraction one. This new outlook on gravity explained why the Relativity theory claiming relativistic length contraction and time dilation is undecidable. In a previous article it is explained that repulsion gravity exists everywhere [1]. I. e. there is no perfect vacuum anywhere in the universe. Because of this fact, the massless photon is forced to find a path of least resistance and surely cannot be proven to dilate time or contract lengths. The repulsion nature of gravity suggests it is possible to use its repulsion force to overcome gravity by generating a rotation of a rotating object. This article explains how this is likely achievable. The article also shows that likely gravity may be controlled by simulating gravity with 3-dimensional rotation defined in this article
Parental Knowledge and Attitudes Towards Childhood Immunization
Authors: Čiutienė Elena
Published: July 2022

Currently, there is a significant outbreak of immunization worldwide. However, coverage of vaccination of children is declining, even in developed countries. As studies show, educational background of parents, their place of residence (city or village), financial situation and age may have an effect over immunization. In addition, according to researchers, the number of unvaccinated children in private educational institutions may be higher than in public ones, and factors related to the availability of vaccines may have an effect over vaccination coverage. It is therefore important to analyse the situation in Lithuania and especially in regions where coverage of immunization is declining. 387 respondents from 10 pre-school institutions took part in the study. Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) Vaccine was the least known to the participants in the study. Meanwhile, vaccines against pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus, and measles, mumps, rubella are the most known. The respondents are also the least aware of the use of vaccines to prevent mumps and Haemophilus influenzae type B infection. The majority of respondents said they do not know the vaccination schedule, and half of those respondents who said they know it could not identify a single time of vaccination. Most of the parents who participated in the study yet choose to vaccinate their children with all state-reimbursed vaccines, and fear of side effects is identified as the most common reason for the decision not to vaccinate children. The study revealed an important link between the refusal from being vaccinated with state-reimbursed vaccines and attendance of private kindergarten. Although parents have little knowledge about immunization, their attitude, however, remains favourable. The respondents have a welcoming opinion about the situation regarding the availability of immunization services, and this should not affect the choice to refuse from immunization. However, the gender, educational background of the respondents and the monthly income received by the family had a statistically significant effect on the knowledge of the persons who participated in the study about vaccination. And persons who refuse to vaccinate their children with state-reimbursed vaccines have poorer knowledge of and are characterized by inferior attitude towards immunization, and, in addition, they have worse opinion about availability of immunization services.

Physical activity during pregnancy is crucial not only for a woman's physical health but also for her emotional health and the outcome of pregnancy and childbirth. Providing sufficient and timely information to women about the importance of physical activity during pregnancy would encourage them to exercise.

Aim of the study – to analyse pregnant women's awareness of the benefits of physical activity during pregnancy.

Methods. Quantitative study, online questionnaire survey conducted in March 2022. The study involved 164 pregnant women with a mean age of 30.43±4.52 years. Statistical software package SPSS 21.0 for Windows was used for data analysis.

Results. 79% of the participants were pregnant for the first time and 83% of the women were 33-40 weeks pregnant at the time of the survey. The results showed a significant decrease in women's physical activity during pregnancy compared to the pre-pregnancy period, with 68.9% being physically active before pregnancy and 47.0% during pregnancy. In terms of changes in physical activity, it was found that, of those who were physically active before pregnancy, more than a quarter of the women had stopped physical activity during pregnancy. When analysing the body parts affected by pain and comparing the assessment of complaints during pregnancy according to physical activity during pregnancy, it was found that posterior pelvic pain and fatigue were statistically significantly more common in the physically inactive participants than in the physically active ones. Physically active women ranked walking, exercise, swimming, yoga as the most frequent physical activities during pregnancy and rated their health higher than physically inactive women. The study found that sources of information on the benefits of physical activity during pregnancy include: the internet, scientific articles, antenatal education and medical advice.

Conclusions. Women's awareness of the benefits of physical activity during pregnancy is low.

Authors: Zúñiga Sánchez Oscar , Marúm Espinosa Elia , Aceves Ávila Carla Delfina
Published: July 2022

El objetivo de este artículo es conocer y analizar las visiones que prevalecen en el profesorado universitario mexicano respecto de la educación para el desarrollo sustentable (EDS), enfoque reconocido como un rasgo más de una educación de calidad. Desde la perspectiva de la gestión universitaria, conocer las visiones que prevalecen en el profesorado cobra relevancia para asegurar un cambio organizacional efectivo del currículo universitario contemplando la perspectiva de la sustentabilidad. El trabajo de investigación del cual se parte es de naturaleza empírica, con un diseño metodológico cuantitativo, no experimental de carácter transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 569 docentes adscritos a algún cuerpo académico de 26 universidades públicas de México. El resultado obtenido indica que el 79% profesorado se adhiere a la noción que corresponden a una visión proactiva, holística e integral de la EDS, condición necesaria para incorporarla en el currículo universitario y en su gestión. Asimismo, el profesorado otorga mayor importancia a concepciones relacionados con la formación de la ética y los valores, y el desarrollo de un enfoque interdisciplinario para la solución de problemas sociales, económicos y ambientales; aspectos por encima de otras nociones que se limitan sólo a acciones relacionadas con la reducción del uso de recursos, reutilización y reciclaje de residuos (3R’s). El resultado obtenido de esta investigación ofrece la posibilidad para que gestores universitarios involucren activamente la participación del profesorado en el diseño de estrategias y políticas relacionadas con la incorporación de la perspectiva de la sustentabilidad en el currículo.

Published: July 2022

The major goal of this study was to modify and validate a HPLC analytical method to quantify the pregabalin in its solid dosage form. The separation and quantification were done on waters 3.9 x 300 mm column with 10 μm internal diameter. Mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile: phosphate buffer (KH2PO4) in the ratio of 50:950. Flow rate was 1.5 ml/min whereas the detection was done at 210 nm. The retention time for pregabalin was 6.5 min with average USP tangent of 5730.195± 0.376. There was a good correlation between concentration of pregabalin and their dilutions with r2 =0.9993. The capacity of method for percent recoveries at three levels over a range of 70-130% were 97.68 - 102.48% with % CV value of 0.73 - 1.95 %. The % CV of intra and inter-day variation was between 0.46 -0.79 and 1.37-0.072 for the concentration of 50, 100 and 150 μg/ml respectively. The results indicated the repeatability, reproducibility and robustness of the method with limit of detection 0.25 μg/ml and 1.0 μg/ml as limit of quantification. The stability study of 160 μg/ml of pregabalin solution (mobile phase) was done to assess the possible decomposition. It was concluded that the proposed method is suitable for routine analysis of pregabalin in its dosage forms. It could be beneficial for the estimation of stability of pregabalin in in-vitro pharmacokinetic studies.
POR UMA ARQUEOLOGIA DOS ENVELHECIDOS: Aspectos Teóricos do Envelhecimento Humano
Authors: Mastrorosa Raquel Roldan
Published: July 2022

Este artigo apresenta uma análise da relação das instâncias sociais, históricas, culturais e discursivas sobre os individuos envelhecidos com a produção do conhecimento arqueológico. A amplitude de interações teóricas interdisciplinares, precipuamente, a das ciências humanas, reflete novos questionamentos e possibilidades de pesquisa e interpretação da temática do envelhecimento humano na arqueologia. Trata-se de um constructo dotado de subjetividades e individualidades, não possuindo assim um caráter único, estático e universal. Verifica-se a necessidade da interação entre as abordagens osteoarqueológicas tácitas e as da teoria arqueológica interpretativa da cultura material, atualmente hegemônica, para o aprimoramento da reflexão sobre o corpo envelhecido nas diversas populações do passado e das inferências culturais e sociais sobre as mesmas.TOWARDS THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF OLD AGE: Theoretical Aspects of Human AgingABSTRACTThis article shows an analysis of the relationship between social, historical, cultural and discursive instances about aged individuals with the production of archaeological knowledge. The breadth of interdisciplinary theoretical interactions, especially that of the human sciences, reflects new questions and possibilities for research and interpretation of the theme of human aging in archaeology. It is a construct endowed with subjectivities and individualities, thus not having a unique, static and universal character. There is a need for interaction between tacit osteo-archaeological approaches and those of the interpretive archaeological theory of material culture, currently hegemonic, to improve the reflection on the aging body in the various populations of the past and the cultural and social inferences about them.Keywords: Archaeology of Old Age; Human Aging; Archaeological Theory; Osteoarchaeology; Archaeology of Body

As pesquisas palinológicas realizadas nos enterramentos humanos do Sítio Toca da Baixa dos Caboclos - PI, permitiram acessar informações sobre a dieta e demais usos, o manejo e o cultivo de plantas (Schinus-aroeira, Syagrus-ouricuri, Caryocar-pequi, Ziziphus- uazeiro, Sida-malva-benta, Pipadenia/Anadenanthera-angicos, Mimosa/Acacia-juremas, Ziziphus-juazeiro). Os dados polínicos também apontam três fases climáticas: TBC 1 (510-290 anos A.P. ou 1450-1670 A.D): mais úmida e florestada, TBC 2 (340-260 anos A.P. ou 1610-1700 A.D.): clímax da floresta e maior umidade, e TBC 3 (230-140 A.P. ou 1730-1810 A.D.): mais seca, com expansão da vegetação arbustivo-herbácea. Os dados culturais e naturais dos microvestígios de plantas sugerem intensas interações entre grupos humanos e o meio vegetal, ao longo de quatro séculos. LANDSCAPE, CLIMATE AND LIVEHOODS IN SOUTHEASTERN PIAUÍ: Archaeopalynological Studies on the Toca da Baixa dos Caboclos Site ABSTRACTPalynological research carried out in human burials at the Toca da Baixa dos Caboclos Site, PI allowed us to access information about the diet and other uses, management and cultivation of plants (Schinus-aroeira, Syagrus-ouricuri, Caryocar-pequi, Ziziphus- uazeiro, Sida-malva-benta, Piptadenia/Anadenanthera-angicos, Mimosa/Acacia-juremas, Ziziphus-juazeiro). The pollen data also point to three climatic phases: TBC 1 (510-290 years BP or 1450-1670 AD): wetter and forested, TBC 2 (340-260 years BP or 1610- 700 AD): forest climax and higher humidity, and TBC 3 (230-140 BP or 1730-1810 AD): drier, with expansion of shrub-herbaceous vegetation. The cultural and natural micro botanical remains suggest intense interactions between human groups and the plant environment, over four centuries.Keywords: Archeopalynology; Human burials; Diet; climate and landscape.
