Florida Cut-Crystal Beads In Ontario, Karlis Karklins, Alicia Hawkins, Heather Walder, Scott Fairgrieve 2018 Syracuse University

Florida Cut-Crystal Beads In Ontario, Karlis Karklins, Alicia Hawkins, Heather Walder, Scott Fairgrieve

BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers

Faceted rock-crystal beads attributed to ca. 1550-1630 have been found at a number of North American archaeological sites, principally in the southeastern United Sates where they are generally termed Florida Cut-Crystal. Finds further to the north are rare. It was, therefore, of great interest to discover three different examples in the bead collections of two 17th-century Huron-Wendat sites in southern Ontario: Le Caron (BeGx-15) and Warminster (BdGv-1). The beads are investigated using a multi-disciplinary approach in an effort to determine how and where they were produced.


Beyond The Nubian Gold: Meroitic Beads Between The Fifth And Sixth Nile Cataracts, Joanna Then-Obłuska 2018 Syracuse University

Beyond The Nubian Gold: Meroitic Beads Between The Fifth And Sixth Nile Cataracts, Joanna Then-Obłuska

BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers

More than 2,300 beads and pendants were excavated from 16 graves at the Berber Meroitic cemetery (BMC) during the 2009-2013 seasons. The site lies between the Fifth and Sixth Cataracts, some 150 km north of the kingdom’s capital, Meroe. The cemetery has been dated to between the 2nd century BC and the 3rd century AD. Next to some ostrich-eggshell, stone, and silver beads and pendants, faience, glass, and metal-in-glass dominate the bead assemblage, with the latter type (gold-in-glass and silver-in-glass beads) constituting a quarter of the finds. Some of the metal-in-glass specimens belong to one of the most sophisticated bead …


Stone Beads In Oman During The 3rd To 2nd Millenia Bce: New Approaches To The Study Of Trade And Technology, Jonathan Mark Kenoyer, Dennys Frenez 2018 Syracuse University

Stone Beads In Oman During The 3rd To 2nd Millenia Bce: New Approaches To The Study Of Trade And Technology, Jonathan Mark Kenoyer, Dennys Frenez

BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers

This paper focuses primarily on ancient stone beads found in Oman at sites dating to the 3rd to 2nd millennium BCE, generally dated to the Umm an-Nar and Wadi Suq periods. Archaeological collections were documented to determine the range of variation in the finished objects and if there is evidence for local production of carnelian and other hard-stone beads. A comparative analysis with published materials from other regions was also undertaken to document the bead types in Oman that might have been obtained through trade networks that linked this region to Mesopotamia, Iran, the Indus Valley region, Afghanistan, Egypt, and …

Advancing Steam Learning Through Virtual Reality, Kimberly Hearn

Senior Honors Projects, 2010-2019

In summer 2017, the Museum of Science Fiction held a convention called Escape Velocity. The convention blends academia and science fiction to promote STEAM learning. For this convention, I coordinated a panel on virtual reality and moderated that panel at the event. The experience allowed me to educate the public on a topic I am interested in, and learn about the logistics of planning an event as well.

More On Frit-Core Beads In North America, Karlis Karklins, Adelphine Bonneau 2018 Syracuse University

More On Frit-Core Beads In North America, Karlis Karklins, Adelphine Bonneau

BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers

This article publishes new findings on frit-core beads in North America, including an initial assessment of their chemical composition. Two new find sites have been added to the inventory, bringing the total to 19. In addition, two new types have been recorded, each with variants. The bead from one of the new sites comes from a context later than the date range attributed to this bead category. Its significance is discussed.

Introduction: Childhood Asthma is a significant public health concern worldwide. Effective management of childhood asthma requires close monitoring of disease triggers, medication compliance and symptom control. The recent growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) based devices has enabled continuous monitoring of patients. kHealth-Asthma is a knowledge-enabled semantic framework consisting of IoT enabled sensors to record patient symptoms, medication usage and their environment. For each patient, 29 diverse parameters with 1852 data points are collected daily. kHealthDash platform enables real-time visual analysis at an individual and cohort level over such high volume, high variety data.

Methods: The kHealth kit was …

Can we assess the asthma control level, determine vulnerability, and medication compliance for a patient? Can we understand the causal relationship between the asthma symptom and possible factors responsible for it? Can we reduce the number of asthma attacks through continuous monitoring of the patient’s health condition?
