Ancora due sepolture con ceppi

Vengono presentate due sepolture inumate: da San Giuliano di Puglia (Campobasso) (seconda metà del VI secolo a.C.) e da Santa Lucia di Serino (Avellino) I secolo a.C.-I secolo d.C.). In ambedue sono stati ritrovati ceppi in ferro. A San Giuliano la sepoltura, bisoma, era di una donna e di un giovane, forse affetto da epilessia; i ceppi non erano indossati, come assai raramente è altrove documentato; e uno di questi era stato aperto. A Santa Lucia di Serino si tratta di un compeditus, molto probabilmente adibito a lavori agricoli pesanti.   Two inhumed graves are presented: from San Giuliano di Puglia (Campobasso) (second half of the VI Century B.C.) and from Santa Lucia di Serino (Avellino) (I Century B.C. - I Century A.D.). In both iron shackles were found. In San Giuliano, the grave, bisomus, was of a woman and of a young man, perhaps suffering from epilepsy; the shackles were not worn, as very rarely documented elsewhere, and one of them had been opened. In Santa Lucia di Serino it is the grave of a compeditus, most likely assigned to heavy agricultural works

La schiava di Moregine

Si propone un'interpretazione di un importantissimo ritrovamento effettuato in località Moregine, subito a sud di Pompei, in particolare del significato di un'iscrizione incisa su una armilla serpentiforme appartenente a una donna il cui corpo è stato ritrovato insieme con alcuni gioielli e altri resti umani

Management of Airways through Rapid Tracheostomy in a Severely Burnt Patient Attended to via Helicopter

In Catanzaro, Italy, an adult male with severe burns all over his body and in a state of coma was promptly rescued by the medical team at the air ambulance service (HEMS), who provided airway safety through laryngeal mask placement (LMA). The patient was subsequently transferred to the nearest Hub center, where an emergency tracheostomy was performed to ensure better airway management during the flight to the nearest available major burn center. This is the first documented case at regional level of a patient undergoing rapid tracheostomy through an imminent transfer with air ambulance

Julius Schubring pioniere degli studi sulla topografia storica di Akragas

Julius Schubring (1839-1914) fu uno dei protagonisti della stagione di studi sulla Sicilia antica avviatasi dopo l'Unità d'Italia. Il contributo indaga questa figura di studioso, troppo presto dimenticata, che ebbe il merito di offrire alla comunità degli archeologi e degli antichisti in generale nuovi dati sui monumenti e la topografia antica della Sicilia, derivanti da un suo lungo soggiorno nell'isola dedicato ad una sistematica ricognizione delle testimonianze del passato. In particolare, si esamina il suo fondamentale contributo alla ricostruzione della topografia storica dell'antica Akragas attraverso l'opera "Historische Topographie von Akragas in Sicilien während der klassischen Zeit", apparsa nel 1870

ESTREMO/WFXRT: Extreme phySics in the TRansient and Evolving COsmos

We present a mission designed to address two main themes of the ESA Cosmic Vision Programme: the Evolution of the Universe and its Violent phenomena. ESTREMO/WFXRT is based on innovative instrumental and observational approaches, out of the mainstream of observatories of progressively increasing area, i.e.: Observing with fast reaction transient sources, like GRB, at their brightest levels, thus allowing high resolution spectroscopy. Observing and surveying through a X-ray telescope with a wide field of view and with high sensitivity extended sources, like cluster and Warm Hot Intragalactic Medium (WHIM). ESTREMO/WFXRT will rely on two cosmological probes: GRB and large scale X-ray structures. This will allow measurements of the dark energy, of the missing baryon mass in the local universe, thought to be mostly residing in outskirts of clusters and in hot filaments (WHIM) accreting onto dark matter structures, the detection of first objects in the dark Universe, the history of metal formation. The key asset of ESTREMO/WFXRT with regard to the study of Violent Universe is the capability to observe the most extreme objects of the Universe during their bursting phases. The large flux achieved in this phase allows unprecedented measurements with high resolution spectroscopy. The mission is based on a wide field X-ray/hard X-ray monitor, covering >1/4 of the sky, to localize transients; fast (min) autonomous follow-up with X-ray telescope (2000 cm ) equipped with high resolution spectroscopy transition edge (TES) microcalorimeters (2eV resolution below 2 keV) and with a wide field (1°) for imaging with 10" resolution (CCD) extended faint structures and for cluster surveys. A low background is achieved by a 600 km equatorial orbit. The performances of the mission on GRB and their use as cosmological beacons are presented and discussed
