Authors: Harmanto Bambang , Rahmawati Ida Yeni 
Published: December 2022

This study was conducted to explore the changes in Early childhood education teachers’ capacity when they were joining a special training with simulation strategy for introducing English at an early childhood education. Teacher’s capacity included two aspects in terms of English teaching strategies, developing material and media. Developmental study was applied for implementing the strategy involving 10 early childhood education teachers. In the first meeting, they still felt difficult in implementing the model. In the second meeting finally they could practice it well. Quantitatively, 90% of respondents acknowledged and admitted that the simulation strategy which they used have helped them to practice introducing English to young learners. Meanwhile, the 10% of respondents said that it was quite helpful for them. It can be concluded that training with simulation strategy was effective to improve early childhood education capacity in introducing English earlier. The successful model can be recommended for the other early childhood education teachers as a source of teaching for their students.
BURIALS WITH KNIFE-SHAPED BLADES FROM THE DON REGION AND THE NORTH CAUCASUS
Authors: Ilyukov Leonid S. , Melnikov Andrey Yu. 
Published: December 2022

In the steppes of Eastern Europe, a whole series of burials were uncovered in simple pits, in which the deceased were buried on their backs, with their legs tucked up, knees up. Their outstretched or half-bent arms lay along the body, hands near the hips, sometimes in the groin area. A flint knife-shaped blade was also discovered there. The bones were richly dyed with ochre. The buried from the Lukovsky I burial ground in the Mozdok district of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania, explored in 2017 by the archaeological expedition of LLC “OKN-Proekt” (Rostov-on-Don) complements this series of burials, which S.N. Korenevsky attributes to the proto-Yamna period. The use of knife-shaped blades in the funeral rite is not limited to the framework of the Eneolithic period. They are also found in the burials of the Middle Bronze Age. Since this sample group is characterized by the position of the deceased in simple grave pits, it is questionable to include in it undercut and catacomb structures, in which archaic elements of the funeral rite and grave goods are found. A flint knife with a leather handle was not only a “meat knife”, but also a tool for performing surgical operations. It was used to perform operations to apply cuts (tattoos) to the surface of the skin, as well as to perform rituals associated with phallic cults that emerged in a patriarchal society, where the role of men increased. The placement of a flint blade between the thighs, in the groin area, between the palms, suggests its simbolic meaning. A flint blade was used in performing circumcision of the foreskin, in cult sacrifice.
CLAY VESSELS’ SHAPES AS AN OBJECT OF STUDY OF THE CULTURAL HISTORY OF ALANS OF THE FOREST-STEPPE DON REGION
Authors: Sukhanov Evgeny V. 
Published: December 2022

Alans are one of the ethnic components of the Saltovo-Mayatsk archaeological culture. Antiquities associated with this group are found in the Middle Don basin. The article studies the cultural characteristics of the Alanian groups that left behind the burial sites of this region, on the example of pottery. The object of study are the shapes of clay vessels. The study was carried out according to the methodology developed within the framework of the historical-and-cultural approach to the study of ancient pottery, proposed by A.A. Bobrinsky. The article considers the quantitative composition of unmixed traditions of shaping forms of pottery on sites associated with the Alan component of the Saltovo-Mayatsk culture. The three most numerous categories of ware are analyzed: jugs, mugs and pots. The communities that left behind the catacomb burial grounds of the eastern regions of the Don forest-steppe were culturally more heterogeneous than the communities from the western part. The materials of the Mayatsky complex, Yutanovsky and Podgorovsky burial grounds present unique and inherently mixed sets of morphological traditions. Based on the data of the study of ceramics and their comparison with burial traditions, we consider the Yutanovsky, Podgorovsky, Mayatsky burial grounds as cemeteries of communities that included settlers from the western part of the Don forest-steppe, whose traditions mixed up in new places of residence. The most probable reason for the resettlement of a certain part of the Alanian population to the eastern regions of the forest-steppe Don region can be considered the construction of a series of stone and brick fortresses on the Tikhaya Sosna River, as well as the need to control this section of the Slavic-Khazar frontier. In accordance with the concept, proposed by G.E. Afansiyev, these fortifications were built in the 30-40s of the 9th century. The author suggests that it is these events that can explain the influx of the Alanian population into the eastern regions of the forest-steppe Don region and the formation of more culturally heterogeneous groups in the new places of residence of these people than among the “neighbors” from the western regions of the Don forest-steppe.
ANALYSIS OF SOME PHOTO SOURCES RELATED TO THE NOGAIS
Authors: Makhsutov Alim K. 
Published: December 2022

With the rapid spread of information technologies today, many archival materials, such as digitized old photographs and videos of representatives of the peoples of the world, in general, and the Caucasus, in particular, have become available to general public. The mentioned materials have a tremendous impact on the image and perception of the material culture of these peoples. Despite the obvious advantages of ample opportunities for the spread of scientific data, these archival and historical materials, unfortunately, are not always used correctly. For instance, on the Internet and in print media, the erroneous use of photographs depicting representatives and elements of the material culture of one people as figures and attributes of other peoples is quite common. Our study analyses four archival photographs from various sources that have appeared in scientific and popular science literature, as well as in encyclopedias, articles, websites of major state and independent media, in materials telling about the Nogai people. We aim to prevent the erroneous use of photographs that have no bearing to Nogais. To achieve this, the author attempts to verify the legitimacy of attributing the studied photographic materials to the Nogais by attracting a broad evidence base in the form of archival data, museum exhibits, works of art historians and historians, as well as a comparative analysis of available material. In the course of the study, the author has come to a sufficiently substantiated conclusion that the photographs presented in the study depict not representatives of the Nogai people, but representatives of the Balkars, Kalmyks, Cossacks and Kazakhs. The researcher of the present work urges the authors of publications about the Nogais to use photographic materials, the relevancy of which is undoubtful.
LITTLE-KNOWN PAGES OF THE BIOGRAPHY OF F.I. GOREPEKIN
Authors: Albogachieva Makka S.-G. 
Published: December 2022

The article provides little-known details from the life of the researcher of writing systems, folklore and ethnography of the Ingush people – Foma Ivanovich Gorepekin. Based on the available sources, documents of archival fonds and materials of the Gorepekin family archive, the author attempts to clarify some gaps in his biography: origin, exact dates of life and death, information about awards and “exposures”, etc. The author has already carried out work on collecting material and publishing articles, as well as a published a facsimile of his works in 2006. However, there have been no other studies of F.I. Gorepekin’s scientific work in Russian historiography, which explains the relevance of our study. The newly discovered facts provide an opportunity to dispel some myths related to his life path and his academic interests. Some of the materials included in this article are first introduced into scientific circulation and shed light on many little-known pages of the researcher’s life. We pay special attention to issues related to his scientific research and negative assessments by academician N.Ya. Marr and his colleagues. During this period, the theory of N. Ya. Marr was strong, and in this context, the work of a little-known Caucasian scholar from Vladikavkaz caused only annoyance and irritation. The works of F.I. Gorepekin were not given due attention by the staff of the Japhetic Institute, to whom they were sent for expert assessment. Analysis of the material allows us to conclude about the reasons for their claims and negative assessment of his works . The introduction of original details about F.I. Gorepekin allows us to see how politics and power could ruin the fates of researchers, regardless of their real contribution to science. The biography of Foma Ivanovich provides a balanced characterization of that period through the fate of one individual. During the study, the method of biographical research was applied.

Published: December 2022

As part of the research project of the RSCF No. 22-18-00295 “Electronic library of Arabographic manuscripts from archival, library, museum and private collections of Russia”, the authors conducted an archeographic expedition in the summer of 2022 to the Kayakent, Akhtynsky and Suleiman-Stalsky districts of the Republic of Dagestan with the aim to identify private and mosque collections of manuscripts and books for their subsequent description and digitization. Two private collections, belonging to K.M. Kamalov and Sh.Yu. Magomedov, were identified in the Kayakent district of Dagestan. They comprise around forty volumes of manuscripts and early printed books, as well as handwritten documents: assembly records, letters, registration of legal transactions, etc. Both collections have a common origin and are fragments of collections belonging to local religious figures: the last pre-revolutionary qadi of the village of Alhajikent, Qadi-Agay and his relatives Abuzar-qadi, local alim of the first half of the 19th century, Abdul Wahab Sheikh and Sheikh Mirza. The part of the collection of Sh.Yu. Magomedov was lost in the 1980s. The content of the collections is mainly represented by works in Arabic in the fields of grammar and stylistics of the Arabic language, Muslim law, dogmatics, occult sciences. Due to the loss of its part, the Sh.Yu. Magomedov’s collection covers the period between 1747-1748 to the first third of the 19th century, while in the collection of Kamalov K.M. there are earlier copies of manuscripts, which, according to paleographic characteristics, can be attributed to the middle of the 17th century. Our paper focuses on the few manuscripts in the Turkic languages, identified in the collections.
THE HISTORY OF THE CREATION OF THE LEZGIN (KAKHETI) CORDON LINE: GOALS AND TASKS OF FORTIFICATIONS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE REGION
Authors: Gazieva Abidat A. , Ozturk Mustafa 
Published: December 2022

The beginning of the 19th century marks a new stage in the military-political development of the Eastern Caucasus and Transcaucasia. Since Georgia was annexed to the empire at that time, the state faced the issue of protecting new territories. A. Ermolov initiated a period of vigorous activity of topographers of the region associated with the construction of a number of fortresses and transfer from the policy of punitive operations to the systematic development of the region using civil colonization. For this purpose, the construction of a system of fortresses along the Iori and Alazani rivers began in the 30s of the 19th century. This system of fortresses entered historiography as the Lezgi (Kakheti) cordon line which was a component of the Left flank of the Caucasian cordon line (after the division of the Caucasian cordon line into flanks in 1834). The Russian government entrusted a number of military-political and economic tasks to the new cordon. In addition, the article examines the place and role of the command staff of the cordon line in the construction, re-deployment of the forces on the line, and the putting into practice provisions of the Caucasian policy in the region. The work reveals the military-political, social-economic importance of the line and the history of the creation of a cordon on the border with Georgia based on the available sources. Overall, the transformation of the Caucasian policy in the region can be seen on the example of the Lezgi (Kakheti) cordon line (the change of policy’s vector from defensive (tactics of punitive operations) to the civil colonization of the region that subsequently contributed to the approach with highlanders through economic, cultural and household relations. The number of constructions on the line and the number of forces deployed in fortresses and fortifications were changing depending on the success of the Tsarist Army in the mountains. The line from the moment of its creation and in the subsequent period performed defensive functions not only for the internal borders but also served as a support of the southern borders of Russia from Turkey and Iran. It was the primary task of preserving the region in geopolitical terms.

Mikroplastik merupakan partikel yang memiliki ukuran <5 mm. Sifat mikroplastik yang menempel pada semua molekul dapat mengkontaminasi biota perairan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi mikroplastik pada udang dan ikan di sungai Brantas. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan metode NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration). Metode ini memiliki beberapa tahap yaitu sampling, identifikasi sampel, dan analisis data. Pengambilan sampel diambil sebanyak 9 stasiun. Menurut metode NOAA (National Oceanic and atmospheric Administration), sampel perlu dilakukan pemberian H2O2 dengan kosentrasi 30 % dan FeSO4 dengan konsentrasi 0.05 M dan sampel diinkubasi selama 24 jam. Hasil yang diperoleh ditemukan sebanyak 5-15 partikel/ekor pada udang (Macrobrachium equides) dan pada ikan sebanyak 11-345 partikel/ekor. Peran masyarakat sangat penting dalam pengurangan penggunaan plastik sekali pakai yang menjadi penyebab utama adanya kontaminasi mikroplastik. Sebaiknya perlu adanya pengolahan limbah dengan mengolahnya terlebih dahulu sebelum dibuang ke sungai, serta membuat regulasi penggunaan sampah plastik sekali pakai.
Biogas Energy Awareness of Livestock Farmers: The Case of Çanakkale Province
Authors: GÜLTAKIN Onur , EVEREST Bengü 
Published: December 2022

The energy needed in the world is met from fossil sources or renewable energy sources. Renewable energy sources consist of sources that can feed themselves. Humans produce waste material during both production and consumption.
Most of the wastes are organic-based wastes with energy potential. It is possible to produce bioenergy from organic-based waste. In addition to being one of the renewable energy sources, biogas energy provides waste recycling. It is a lower cost energy and fertilizer source compatible with nature. As a result of biogas production, the factors that threaten the environment and human health disappear. In addition, organic wastes do not disappear after the process and turn into valuable organic fertilizer. This study was carried out in Örtülüce village of Biga district, where livestock enterprises are the most in Çanakkale. In the research, the awareness of livestock farmers about biogas energy was examined. According to the findings obtained from the study, 25.3% of the farmers believe that only electricity is produced from biogas, 17.8% know that biogas energy production facilities pollute the environment. On the other hand, 97.3% of the farmers have heard of the concept of biogas before. Also, 49.31% of farmers are willing to participate in biogas investments. Age, level of education, and internet use are found to be influential in farmers' decisions.
Detection of Epileptic Seizures from EEG Signals Using Machine Learning Classifiers
Authors: Joy Avijit Dey , Sarkar Sraboni , Azad Abul Kalam 
Published: December 2022

Epileptic seizure is a chronic neurological disorder which affects millions of people all over the globe. It can be treated in a better way if the symptoms are detected at an early stage. In this study, we have demonstrated and evaluated the classification performances of different machine learning classifiers for the detection of epileptic seizures from electroencephalography (EEG) signals. For this, we have first applied principal component analysis (PCA) on EEG signals to obtain much reduced-length PCA vectors. These vectors are then applied to decision tree (DT), k-nearest neighbor (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), support vector machine (SVM) and artificial neural network (ANN) classifiers for the detection of epileptic seizures. The effects of length of PCA vectors on the performances of these classifiers have also been analyzed rigorously for 2-class, 3-class and 5-class classification of EEG signals. Besides such PCA-based classifiers, we have also proposed and evaluated the performances of a customized convolutional neural network (CNN) to directly extract features from the EEG signals as well as to perform classification tasks. The results showed that CNN outperforms PCA-based machine learning classifiers. For 2-class classification cases, CNN attains classification accuracies in the range from 99.50% to 100%, whereas 98.48% and 96.32% accuracies are obtained with CNN for 3-class and 5-class classification cases. The results signify that the proposed CNN classifier can be considered as a highly-efficient scheme for the reliable detection of epileptic seizures from EEG signals.

Improving Deep Sensitivity of Four-Electrode Focused Impedance Method In Lungs by Varying Electrode Geometries
Authors: Mobarak Mahjabin , Rabbani K Siddique e 
Published: December 2022

Bio-Electrical impedance is of special interest in the detection and diagnosis of lung problems, particularly in the low and medium income countries. An age old simple technique employing four electrodes is known as ‘Tetra Polar Impedance Measurement (TPIM)’ but it cannot localize a particular zone of interest region. A new technique named as ‘Focused Impedance Method (FIM)’ was innovated by a Dhaka University group which gives high sensitivity in a localized zone of interest. Previously FIM was used from one side of the thorax which gave a rather limited information from the lungs, from shallow depths only. In order to get information from deeper regions of the lungs a new configuration of electrodes for FIM was proposed by the same group at Dhaka University which placed two electrodes at the front and two electrodes at the back of the thorax in a horizontal plane. It is expected that the degree of depth sensitivity would depend on electrode separation on both the sides. The electrode width may also have an effect. In order to study these quantitatively, COMSOL Multiphysics software was used to simulate the measurements in a rounded rectangular volume to represent a typical thorax, which was filled with isotonic saline. Electrode separations of 5cm, 10cm, 15cm and 20cm were studied while electrode widths studied were 0.15cm, 1cm and 3cm. The work supported the proposed new configuration of electrodes for FIM in that this method gives enhanced sensitivity throughout the depths of a lung and that for a thorax with a cross section of 33cm26cm, an electrode separation between 10cm and 15cm would give optimum results. For electrode width, the ones studied did not give any significant difference, however, the smallest (0.15cm) one appeared to give slightly better results.
