THE FEMALE SHAMAN BURIALS IN SULA RIVER REGION
Authors: Klochko L. 
Published: January 2025

The study of kurgans in the Sula River basin reveals the details of the burial ritual as well as the material culture. Specifically, an interesting information is provided by the material from the kurgan 4 near Vovkivtsi village (Sumy region). Scholars believe this kurgan to be a family crypt, meaning that all of the buried from the main burial (no. 1) as well as in additional ones (nos. 2—4) are related. Except the burial 4, all the rest were ruined therefore it is impossible to recreate the picture of the performed rituals. Probably the kurgan was built over the burial 1, later — crypts 3 and 4, the grave 2 (in the mound) being the last. Most of the items suitable for studying both burial ritual and costume of the region had been found in the grave 4. Two women could have been buried simultaneously although the construction of the grave may indicate a gap between the funerals. During the funeral of women the flame could have been kindled above the wooden construction, according to the ritual: it is indicated by the remains above the grave.
The buried females laid in the western and eastern parts of the crypt, with their heads directed to the South. Their clothes possess decorative elements which have ethnically local features. Those being earrings with «upside down cone» shape (5 items), bronze leg bracelets, large pins. Each of the buried had a jewelry of several categories. The Scythian from the eastern part had: «upside down» earrings, necklace of gems, iron bracelets with golden plates, and bronze leg bracelets. The female from the western part had: «upside down cone» and boat-shaped earrings; a necklace of golden round and figurine beads; a lunar-shaped pendant; bronze leg bracelets. All of the decorative elements connected to the symbols of the fertility gods. The sacred character of the burial is further supported by such items as earrings between skulls and the mirror. The buried held high place in the hierarchy. It is possible that they were the wives of the Scythian man, for whom the kurgan was build. The findings near the eastern wall of the grave call for special attention: bronze cone-shaped item with 26 holes on its bottom. Presumably 26 bells, found nearby, were connected to the cone via these holes. This could be the tool for «sound» support of the burial, which correlates with shaman rituals.
THE BYZANTINE BUCKLE FROM KVETUN IN DESNA VALLEY
Authors: Volodarets-Urbanovych Y. 
Published: January 2025

The paper presents the buckle of early Byzantine time from Kvetun (Trubchevsk district of Bryansk region) in Middle Desna valley (fig. 1). This find was discovered in 1947 in kurgan 1 of the southern group during the research of M. V. Voevodskyi (fig. 2). Most researchers believe that this barrow field belongs to the Kolochyn culture. However, the lack of a clear definition of the ceramic assemblage from kurgan 1 leaves open the question of its affiliation.
Only few researchers considered this find, but almost without involving Central European analogies and quite often without proper arguments. In general, this buckle with cast integral plate is dated within very broad chronological limits — from the 7th — to the 9th centuries.
A catalogue of such buckles which includes 7 locations (excluding the find from Kvetun) has been collected (appendix; fig. 3; 4). Not each find is a direct analogy for the buckle from Middle Desna valley. But they can be used for a general understanding of this wide range of jewelry. These analogies point to the Byzantine origin of this buckle. Moreover, their dating does not go beyond the 7th century. The buckle from kurgan 1 can also be dated to this time. That is, this complex can be correlated with the materials of the final stage of the Kolochyn culture.
Although the early Byzantine finds in the Left Bank of the Dnieper are very few, but they are even fewer in the area of the Kolochyn culture. This is a find of a silver platter from Sudzha-Zamostia hoard and a fibula with returned foot from Nikodymove hill-fort. Perhaps this indicates certain regularities of the distribution of Byzantine things among the Slavs of the north-eastern part of their range, which is located too far from the borders of the Empire.
ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES OF DYMER TOWN
Authors: Pavlenko S. 
Published: January 2025

In the autumn of 2021 and spring of 2022, the author conducted archaeological explorations in the territory of Dymer town and its surroundings. The surveys covered the valley of the Pekhovka River in its middle reaches. This is the first archaeological work carried out in this micro-region. The large-scale field research of the mid-1930s and 1960s—1980s were focused on the Dnipro bank, and did not cover the Pekhovka River valley and the Dymer town, the centre of the district, located deep in the plateau.
As a result, 12 new archaeological sites were discovered. These are mainly multilayered settlements with materials from the Bronze Age, Early Iron Age, Old Rus period and Early Modern one. The paper provides information on the administrative, topographical and landscape location of the sites, their size, and describes archaeological artefacts. The high concentration of site in a small research area is emphasised. The problem of damage to archaeological sites as a result of uncontrolled detector search is tangentially raised. The cultural layer on all sites under survey without exception showed traces of numerous, systematic and deliberate destruction.
At the same time, the evidence of burial mounds in the vicinity of Dymer was collected and analysed. From the 4 necropolises known in the second half of the 19th century, none survived till today. The locations of the kurgan groups are not localised.
Particular attention was paid to the problem of localisation of fortifications of the 17th—18th centuries on the town territory. The data of written sources concerning the foundation of the town and its first owners is analysed. The attention is focused on the mentions of the castle of the starosta and the fortress of the Polish and Cossack outpost. The variants of fortification locations proposed by historians and local historians are analyzed in the paper. They have been verified in the field during the field research. For the first time, artefacts of the Old Rus and Early Modern periods were recorded in the downtown of Dymer, which is a key to the question of the town’s genesis. It has been suggested that the town was founded at the place of the ferriage of Pekhovka River to control two main routes. The castle and fortress most likely occupied the dominant point in the downtown of the modern town. It is likely that the location of the medieval fortifications is marked by the site Dymer 1.
Finally, the paper outlines the prospects for further archaeological research on the territory of the town, in its outskirts, and in the territorial community (municipality).

INTRODUCTION. The aging of the population and the resulting increased proportion of older patients with chronic, non-communicable diseases represent one of the greatest challenges for the healthcare system in many countries. At the same time, a high level of medical care, including transportation, must be guaranteed for older people. This makes it crucial to research both organizing challenges associated with the development of well-functioning processes directly at the medical facility and accessibility when receiving medical care.OBJECTIVE. To research the main variables affecting organizational and medical access barriers for patients who are over working age in the Russian Federation.MATERIAL AND METHODS. In the present work we used the questionnaire survey method with a questionnaire consisting of three blocks and 89 questions. The statistical analysis of the data was carried out using the programs Statistica for Windows Version 10.0, Stata and R-Studio. The Pearson test of agreement (Chi-criterion) was used to compare the distributions of qualitative characteristics. A generalized linear model with a logit link function was used to test the hypothesis about the influence of individual respondent characteristics on the probability of falling into quartiles. To test the hypothesis about the influence of individual sociodemographic factors on the probability of getting into the top 25% of the distribution based on the mean of the scores, a generalized linear model with a logit function of the relationship was used.RESULTS. A total of 3,942 respondents took part in the survey. All persons older than working age faced some obstacles in obtaining medical care, and the prevalence of problematic situations ranged from 12.5% (problems with movement due to the inconvenient location of the practice) to 74.3% (absence the right specialist and the need to see another one). medical organization). Factors that influence the severity of the barriers are described (living in rural areas, presence of financial problems and low social integration, older age).DISCUSSION. The results obtained in this work are comparable to a number of studies conducted in the Russian Federation and worldwide.CONCLUSION. Overcoming accessibility and organizational barriers requires management and organizational decisions on the part of regional health protection authorities, municipalities, and employees of medical organizations and social services.

BACKGROUND. The role of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and its levels in aging have been established in clinical and experimental studies. Aging-associated geriatric syndromes underlie functional and adaptive decline in older patients. However, there is insufficient evidence that aging-associated decrease in circulating levels of IGF-1 is associated with geriatric syndromes, particularly in long-living adults. This study aimed to examine the associations between IGF-1 levels and geriatric syndromes in long-living adults.METHODS. This cross-sectional study included nonagenarians recruited with the assistance of social services, nursing homes, geriatric centers, and other geriatric services. The participants underwent a comprehensive geriatric assessment, including medical history, geriatric scales, and questionnaires. Blood samples were collected, and IGF-1 levels were assessed using chemiluminescence. The study was approved by the ethics committee (Protocol № 30 dated December 24, 2019). Statistical analysis was performed using the R package (v. 4.2.2).RESULTS. The study included 3,789 participants aged 90–107 (median age = 92) who met the inclusion criteria. The median IGF-1 level was 99.8 ng/mg (min: 30.8 ng/ml; max: 208 ng/ml). The intergroup analysis showed associations between IGF-1 levels and functional dependence, frailty, risk of falls, malnutrition, sarcopenia, and cognitive impairment. However, after adjusting for physical activity and BMI, a significant association was demonstrated only between IGF-1 levels and cognitive impairment.CONCLUSION. Our study showed a significant association between IGF-1 levels and cognitive impairment. However, the detected associations require further analysis in prospective studies.
Locality-Based Administrative Services (Study in Terong Village, Kapanewon Dlingo, Bantul Regency, Unique Region of Yogyakarta)
Authors: Zulianti Zulianti 
Published: January 2025

The sub-district is the lowest element of government, having direct relations with the community. The district head has the authority to carry out administrative services. The administration of administrative services in sub-districts follows the Village Minimum Service Standards (SPM). The quality of the service measures the success of administrative services. Terong Village must be able to provide administrative service to users, namely the community, according to the Village SPM provisions, and provide quality services to user needs. The research aims to determine administrative services and the suitability of administrative services with the SPM Village in Terong Village. The informants in the study were the Head of Terong Village, Carik, the administrative officer of Terong Village, Dukuh, and the community user of administrative services—research analysis using analytical descriptive. The research analysis results concluded that administrative services in Terong District are locality-based services based on 1) geographical, 2) community characteristics, 3) trust in other communities, and 4) demographic factors. The results of the research show that Terong Village does not yet have a Village SPM and does not service SOPs or service announcements. Terong District has implemented SERQUAL services based on demographic factors, geography, and community characteristics.

The large-scale [C ii] emission presents a velocity gradient aligned with a nearby companion with perturbed kinematics, and misaligned with the kinematics of the small-scale emission. The absence of significant [C ii] emission by structures with physical scale ≲ 1 kpc implies that [C ii] emission is not produced in dense PDRs located at the boundary of giant molecular clouds. We argue instead that [C ii] is produced in low-density PDRs in the interstellar medium and diffuse H i gas tidally stripped during the ongoing merger.
Contribution of Unresolved Sources to Diffuse Gamma-Ray Emission from the Galactic Plane

Published: January 2025

Abstract
The diffuse gamma-ray emission from the Milky Way serves as a crucial probe for understanding the propagation and interactions of cosmic rays within our Galaxy. The Galactic diffuse gamma-ray emission between 10 TeV and 1 PeV has been recently measured by the square kilometer array (KM2A) of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO). The flux is higher than predicted for cosmic rays interacting with the interstellar medium. In this work, we utilize a nonparametric method to derive the source count distribution using the published first LHAASO source catalog. Based on this distribution, we calculate the contribution of unresolved sources to the diffuse emission measured by KM2A. When comparing our results to the measured diffuse gamma-ray emission, we demonstrate that for the outer Galactic region, the contributions from unresolved sources and those predicted by models are roughly consistent with the observations within the uncertainties. However, for the inner Galactic region, additional components are required to account for the observed data.
A Coscaling Grid for Athena++. II. Magnetohydrodynamics
Authors: Heitsch Fabian , Habegger Roark 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
We extend the coscaling formalism of Habegger & Heitsch implemented in Athena++ to magnetohydrodynamics. The formalism relies on flow symmetries in astrophysical problems involving expansion, contraction, and center-of-mass motion. The formalism is fully consistent with the upwind constrained transport method implemented in Athena++ and is accurate to second order in space. Applying our implementation to standard magnetohydrodynamic test cases leads to improved results and higher efficiency, compared to the fixed-grid solutions.
L’apport des cahiers du petit cabotage à la connaissance du commerce et de la navigation de Marseille à la fin du xviiie siècle
Authors: Marzagalli Silvia 
Published: January 2025

Cet article présente une source jusqu’ici sous-exploitée : les cahiers du petit cabotage. Conservés à partir de 1785, ils sont produits par le bureau de la Santé de Marseille en parallèle des registres des dépositions des capitaines. La logique qui préside à leur confection n’est pas immédiatement évidente : elle n’est ni purement géographique, ni uniquement liée aux produits transportés, ou au pavillon du navire. La saisie de deux années des cahiers du petit cabotage dans une base de données enrichie de métadonnées, réalisée dans le cadre du programme ANR Portic, permet d’éclaircir un peu les choses en croisant les variables et en testant les différentes hypothèses. Au total, les cahiers enrichissent singulièrement notre perception de la navigation de Marseille à la veille de la Révolution : les trois quarts des navires entrés dans le port phocéen viennent d’une aire comprise entre Valence et Naples, qui inclut aussi les Baléares, la Corse et la Sardaigne.
Les dépositions des capitaines de navires à l’intendance de la Santé de Marseille en 1779 : une source au service de l’étude de la navigation en temps de guerre
Authors: Bidard Xavier 
Published: January 2025

L’intendance de la Santé du port de Marseille a pour but de protéger la ville et par extension le royaume de France de l’introduction de maladies contagieuses. Le bureau recueille les dépositions des capitaines de navires lors de leur entrée au port, où ceux-ci relatent leur traversée jusqu’à Marseille. Ces dépositions, consignées dans les registres de l’institution, regorgent d’informations dépassant le simple cadre sanitaire. Leur contenu, saisi dans des bases de données relationnelles, se révèle particulièrement utile pour l’étude de la navigation et du commerce. Les dépositions deviennent ainsi, en quelque sorte, des « boîtes noires » de la navigation vers Marseille qui permettent d’étudier le commerce et la navigation en temps de guerre et les stratégies déployées alors pour maintenir les trafics maritimes.
De nouveaux habits pour les Négociants marseillais ? Le programme Fiduciae, la maison Roux et les négoces européens (vers 1730 - vers 1850)
Authors: Bartolomei Arnaud 
Published: January 2025

En 1973, Charles Carrière publiait Négociants marseillais, une œuvre majeure appelée à fixer durablement la perception que les historiens et les historiennes ont eue des négoces maritimes à l’époque moderne. Cet article est l’occasion de revenir sur l’œuvre du grand historien provençal (qui ne se limite pas à ce seul ouvrage), sur sa portée et sur son apport sans cesse renouvelé à la réflexion historique actuelle. Il est aussi l’occasion, en se fondant sur un jeu de données inédites collectées dans le cadre du programme de recherche Fiduciae de suggérer certains dépassements des thèses défendues par Charles Carrière sur trois points plus précisément : le caractère « mondial » du commerce marseillais, le caractère élitiste des pratiques marchandes de ses négociants et l’importance de la rupture de 1793 dans l’histoire commerciale de la ville. En quelque sorte, cet article propose ainsi de nouveaux habits pour les Négociants marseillais.
Nouveau regard sur la maison Roux au xviiie siècle. Les beaux fruits du dialogue entre les sources marseillaises et hollandaises
Authors: Allain Thierry 
Published: January 2025

Puissante maison de commerce, les Roux de Marseille nous ont légué de remarquables archives qui ont nourri de nombreux travaux sur l’histoire commerciale de la Méditerranée au xviiie siècle. Il est cependant nécessaire de confronter ces sources à d’autres fonds, si l’on veut saisir les opérations négociantes dans leur globalité. Dans le cas des relations commerciales avec les Provinces-Unies, la mobilisation de documents conservés aux Pays-Bas permet de préciser le contenu des archives marseillaises, voire d’en combler les lacunes. La maison Roux oscilla entre commission et compte à participation, au gré de la conjoncture et du type de produit à traiter avec les Hollandais. Bien que dotée d’une bonne réputation, elle ne parvint pas toujours à imposer sa volonté aux partenaires d’Amsterdam ou de Rotterdam qui n’hésitaient jamais à lui faire sentir leur supériorité financière, technique ou morale.
Marseille dans la seconde moitié du xviiie siècle, entrepôt des denrées coloniales américaines pour les ports italiens
Authors: Calcagno Paolo 
Published: January 2025

Au début du xviiie siècle, notamment en vertu des lettres patentes qui autorisent les relations commerciales directes avec les îles d’Amérique, Marseille connaît un développement considérable. Le port « mondial » (C. Carrière) ne peut cependant se passer de la Méditerranée, dans le sens où les principaux acheteurs des marchandises américaines sont toujours basés à l’intérieur de Mare nostrum. Quantitativement, les deux principaux marchés qui absorbent les produits des Antilles sont le Levant et la péninsule Italienne. Et tandis que le premier marché connaît un déclin dans la dernière partie du siècle, le second, quant à lui, s’adapte à l’expansion du trafic portuaire de Marseille et absorbe la part la plus substantielle des marchandises en provenance de l’Amérique française. En analysant les données des expéditions de sucre, de café et de cacao pendant la période de paix entre la guerre de Sept Ans et la guerre d’Indépendance américaine, l’article montre le rôle fondamental de la péninsule italienne dans les stratégies commerciales du port marseillais.
« La femme, quand elle parle de choses qu’elle a éprouvées et qu’elle ressent, a des mots d’une plus grande efficacité ». Niccolò Tommaseo et les femmes qui écrivent
Authors: Gendrat-Claudel Aurélie 
Published: January 2025

Après avoir rappelé le cadre idéologique et historique dans lequel s’inscrit la réflexion de Niccolò Tommaseo sur la condition et l’éducation des femmes, analysable surtout dans La donna (1868), l’article se penche sur un ouvrage assez peu étudié, le Dizionario estetico, paru pour la première fois en 1840, dans lequel Tommaseo cite plusieurs écrivaines. Il s’agit de s’intéresser à la fois aux stratégies de promotion de certaines figures féminines, italiennes ou européennes, mais aussi d’analyser les tensions qui traversent le discours critique d’une figure d’autorité masculine comme Tommaseo quand il aborde la production intellectuelle et littéraire des femmes du passé (comme Vittoria Colonna), mais aussi et surtout de son époque (d’Angela Veronese à Caterina Percoto, en passant par Diodata Saluzzo et George Sand) : le mélange de l’admiration et du paternalisme suggère que l’intérêt réel pour les écrivaines n’empêche pas d’assigner à leur parole des bornes infranchissables au nom de stéréotypes de genre.
