Regional Moment Tensor Review: An Example from the 2 European–Mediterranean Region
The seismic moment tensor is the complete mathematical representation of the movement on a fault
10 during an earthquake, comprising of the couples of forces that produced it, the description of the fault
11 geometry, and its size by means of the scalar seismic moment M0.
12 The computation of seismic moment tensor has become a widely diffused activity because of the
13 relevance of this kind of data in seismotectonic and geodynamic studies and, in more recent times,
14 because it allows obtaining rapid information about a seismic event immediately after its occurrence. This
15 progress has been possible with the advent of modern standardized instruments since the early 1960s,
16 above all of the very broadband seismographic stations that started to record in the late 1970s. Further-
17 more, time after time, the easier availability of digital data impressed a strong incentive to improve the

Ambiguous pots:Everyday practice, migration and materiality.The case of medieval Baltic ware on the island of Bornholm (Denmark)
Archaeologists routinely deal with the remains of everyday life. Yet the significance and dimensions of daily practices are rarely reflected upon. Merging Bourdieu’s theory of practice, recent theories of everyday life and the materiality approach in archaeology, this study addresses the potential importance of daily practices and mundane objects in dealing with a rupture caused by migration. As a case study I use an example of medieval (eleventh century) Western Slavic migration to the island of Bornholm (Denmark) and production and daily handling of ceramic pots, the so-called Baltic ware. I explore the possible background to the introduction of the new pottery style, its significance for the local population of the island and above all the meanings these types of ceramics could have had for the immigrant Slavs
