25 | Tel Yoqne‘Am: Excavations On The Acropolis, Miriam Avissar Jan 2005

25 | Tel Yoqne‘Am: Excavations On The Acropolis, Miriam Avissar

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

The acropolis of Yoqne‘am is occupied by an enclosure that is considered to be the remains of a Crusader fortress. The IAA excavations here explored the remains of the Crusader, Mamluk and Ottoman periods in three main areas: inside the enclosure, the connection with the Crusader church, and in one of the corner towers. This volume presents the architecture and stratigraphy of the site, as well as the pottery, coins, glass and other small finds, such as oil lamps and clay tobacco pipes.

Phase I Archaeological Intensive Survey Of Hassanamesitt Woods Property, Grafton, Massachusetts, Jack Gary, Stephen Mrozowski, David B. Landon Jan 2005

Phase I Archaeological Intensive Survey Of Hassanamesitt Woods Property, Grafton, Massachusetts, Jack Gary, Stephen Mrozowski, David B. Landon

Andrew Fiske Memorial Center for Archaeological Research Publications

The Center for Cultural and Environmental History conducted a Phase I archaeological intensive survey of the Hassanamesitt Woods property in Grafton, Massachusetts from October 2004 through January 2005. Documentary evidence has suggested that the property may contain remains of the church for the Praying Indian village of Hassanamisco, established by John Eliot in 1660. Historical deed research has also placed several Nipmuc families on the property in the early 18th century, suggesting the area was resettled by the original inhabitants of Hassanimisco in the aftermath of King Philip's War. Throughout the course of the 18th and 19th centuries the property …

Archaeological Site Examination, North Yard Of The Loring-Greenough House, Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, J.N. Leith Smith, Katherine Howlett Jan 2004

Archaeological Site Examination, North Yard Of The Loring-Greenough House, Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, J.N. Leith Smith, Katherine Howlett

Andrew Fiske Memorial Center for Archaeological Research Publications

A phased program of stabilization and restoration for the Loring-Greenough House and property located in Jamaica Plain, a suburb of Boston, MA, called for reconstruction of porches, construction of an entrance walk and new foundations for the carriage house. This program also included landscaping and rehabilitation of garden plantings in the north yard. Archaeological testing was conducted to identify cultural resources that would be impacted by the proposed project and to search for evidence of early garden features that could be used to guide landscape restoration. The first phase of research focused on house porches, walkway installation and foundation work …

19 | The Neolithic Site Of Abu Ghosh, Hamoudi Khalaily, Ofer Marder Dec 2003

19 | The Neolithic Site Of Abu Ghosh, Hamoudi Khalaily, Ofer Marder

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

Excavations at the Neolithic site of Abu Ghosh in the Jerusalem Hills uncovered two periods: the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) and the Pottery Neolithic (PN). This volume documents the results of the excavations of villages of these two consecutive periods, including architecture, lithics, groundstone, pottery, small finds and fauna. The PPNB village comprised domestic structures, courtyards, plaster floors and enclosing fences. Domestic activities took place in the courtyards. The PN village layout is less clear, as it was dug into the earlier remains. The faunal analysis reveals evidence of incipient domestication of wild goats in the PPNB assemblage, and by …

Model State Land Use Legislation For New England, New England Environmental Finance Center, Muskie School Of Public Service Jul 2003

Model State Land Use Legislation For New England, New England Environmental Finance Center, Muskie School Of Public Service

Legislation

Sprawl is neither the ordained nor the inevitable outcome upon the New England landscape. A coordinated response to sprawl by the public and private sectors is possible, and could dramatically improve land use patterns and reduce the cost of local government. For the New England states, such a response would include, among other elements, legislation to eliminate existing gaps in the land use laws of each state – gaps that presently encourage or sanction sprawling development. It would also include incentives for municipalities to think beyond their borders and to act with greater efficiency and effect. It is the purpose …


18 | Salvage Excavations At The Early Bronze Age Site Of Qiryat Ata, Amir Golani Jul 2003

18 | Salvage Excavations At The Early Bronze Age Site Of Qiryat Ata, Amir Golani

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

Some 1400 sq m were exposed in the IAA excavations of the protohistoric site of Qiryat Ata. The study of the paleogeography reveals this location was an optimal area for exploitation of natural resources, including alluvial valleys, coastal habitats and forests, with stable water sources and extensive available farmland. The site yielded a wealth of stratified, well-dated architecture in a chronological sequence within the Early Bronze Age, illustrating the development from EB IB curvilinear structures, to late EB IB rectilinear forms with rounded corners, and finally EB II angular-cornered rectilinear buildings in a large, dense, urbanized town. The rich pottery, …

Guiding Growth: A Survey Of Tax Incentives, New England Environmental Finance Center, Muskie School Of Public Service Jan 2003

Guiding Growth: A Survey Of Tax Incentives, New England Environmental Finance Center, Muskie School Of Public Service

Legislation

Current development patterns and increased tax pressures in local municipalities combine to harm both Maine’s natural resources and its quality of life. Previous initiatives such as the implementation of zoning laws did not fully result in the desired outcomes. Zoning laws were often too flexible and often did not resist market and political pressures to change zoning regulations to allow development with possible economic growth. A sound taxation system or fee structure may be the solution to slow down development in natural areas and direct it towards areas appropriate for growth.

To protect Maine’s natural resources more successfully from future …


Storage Of Architectural Materials At The Syracuse University Library, Peter D. Verheyen, Carolyn Davis, Debra Olson Jan 2003

Storage Of Architectural Materials At The Syracuse University Library, Peter D. Verheyen, Carolyn Davis, Debra Olson

Librarian Publications

When the Department of Special Collections at the Syracuse University Library acquired the papers of Werner Seligmann, an architect and former Dean of the Syracuse University School of Architecture, the opportunity presented itself to develop a model storage system that could be applied to the other architectural drawings in the Department. While not large in comparison to these other collections, the Seligmann Papers were sizable enough to give us a better understanding of the storage issues involved if we decided to undertake the task of re-housing our other drawings. If such a task were to be undertaken, a new storage …

Carnegie Library Buildings In Iowa Today, Terri Hudachek Jan 2003

Carnegie Library Buildings In Iowa Today, Terri Hudachek

Graduate Research Papers

The purpose of this study was to present the history of four Iowa Carnegie Library buildings: Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Cedar Falls, Iowa, West Liberty, Iowa, and Eldon, Iowa. These four building histories were selected because together they represent the common fates of such buildings, not only in Iowa, but across the country. The Carnegie Library in Eldon remains much the same as the day it opened in May 9, 1913 with many original features intact. The West Liberty Carnegie Library building has been renovated to retain the Carnegie appearance. Cedar Falls had renovated its Carnegie library building with no regard …


16 | Kissufim Road: A Chalcolithic Mortuary Site, Yuval Goren, Peter Fabian Dec 2002

16 | Kissufim Road: A Chalcolithic Mortuary Site, Yuval Goren, Peter Fabian

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This volume describes the results of the excavation of a unique mortuary site in the northwestern Negev, which differs from Chalcolithic cave-burial sites known in the coastal plain and northern Israel, and the stone circles known from a few sites in the northwestern Negev and southern Transjordan. The excavations revealed a mortuary site containing some 54 individuals, both children and adults, in secondary burial in ceramic ossuaries, urns, jars, bowls and ceramic and stone burial tubs. Individuals were interred in a rectangular mud-built funerary structure, surrounded by a number of individual pit burials and a collective burial in a large …

Smart Growth And Land Acquisition Priorities, New England Environmental Finance Center Mar 2002

Smart Growth And Land Acquisition Priorities, New England Environmental Finance Center

Land Conservation

It is well-known and generally accepted that all undeveloped land in New England cannot forever be protected from development; nor would this be a desirable goal, as continued economic development and population growth are near certainties. For these and other reasons, private land trusts and government agencies generally use explicit criteria to prioritize their land acquisition activities and prospects.

Much land protection in New England and elsewhere, however, has occurred without substantial attention to such land use needs as fostering the best locations for where people will live, businesses will locate, and infrastructure will be built to avoid degrading resources. …
