message: A number of web sites (including IMDB) give her year of birth as 1958. I believe this is a case of everybody copying someone else's incorrect information. A search of the birthday database at stevemorse.org (which I believe to be a fairly reliable source) gives 1955. I don't believe she won the first Ms. Olympia at 22, and I seem to recall from way back that she was in her mid to late 20's during her prime, which is more consistent with 1955. fbb_fan 03:33, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Merk (coin)

message: I write because of the attribution of the Merk to the 16th/17th century.
I am very much not competent to act as scholar on this issue - I do however notice a derivation from the early 14th Century.
Nigel Tranter's second book of "The Bruce Trilogy" is called "The Path of the Hero King", and it contains constant references to the "merk" as currency.
The book covers the period 1307-1314. It was published in 1970.
My paperback edition dates from 1996, and lists 33 other books, including two other trilogies, written by Tranter.
I do not know Mr Tranter. He would certainly not remember me, but I remember him from school. He was and hopefully still is a few years older than I am. I guess his current age as 67/68.

message: The article says that the word Paolo might be derived from the Latin word for small.  It seems a whole lot more probable that the word paolo is just derived from the name Paolo, which is the Italian version of Paul.  So wouldn't be more likely that it's called paolo because the first coins came out under the papacy of a pope named Paul?

thread_title: Gold staters?

message: Does anyone know what the stater traded for ... for example for what size hole in the ground? 
I think all money should be in units of HULs (Hours of Unskilled Labor). We have all been one at least once in our lives, and we all know how big a hole we can dig given a shovel and one hour's time. And that hole would be the same as they could do 5,000 or 10,000 years ago. So if we could convert to denominations of HULs we would have good relative measures ... not like the 1oz of gold or silver nonsense that people think is a standard today ... and even want to call money ... and sound and honest money at that.

thread_title: Comments

message: It would seem that the purpose of catchwords is uncertain. Assisting the binder in collation is credible, but use of signatures and registers were sufficient for this. Though admittedly it was the unsigned leaves that were usually misbound. And since a single leaf of two pages cannot be misfolded or otherwise misbound, there would be no need for them on both recto and verso.
Until the invention of the paper-making machine, ca 1800, paper was made usually made from rag linen, and hence expensive, resulting in contractions and condensation to minimize its use. Early books usually had no hyphen, so a word divided at the foot of a recto might be ambiguous. These days people seldom have to turn the page to ascertain the last word.
If reading aloud to someone, the catchword might be a word to pause on before turning over.
It must have been inconvenient to the printer to insert extra lines for a single word. Catchwords appear to be fussy and silly, in contrast to many very sensible printing inventions. They are an important dating/identifying tool for early printing, especially for fragments and single leaves. Hain and other bibliographers always mention their presence or absence in describing incunabula, together with headlines, side-notes, format, place, printer,collation, etc. - books from the first few decades of printing having fewer of these innovations.
The first known catchwords in a printed book appear in an undated Tacitus printed by Wendelin de Spira,at Venice in [1470]. [David Green & Helen Gentry, "Chronology of Books & Printing", Macmillan, New York: 1936].
