DOS LUCERNAS NORTE-AFRICANAS CON SIMBOLOGÍA CRISTIANA. CALLE ORCEL-DON GIL, 21-25

Las excavaciones de urgencia llevadas a cabo en la calle Orcel n.- 21-25, durante los meses de agosto y septiembre de 1986, dieron con resultado el hallazgo de unas estructuras pertenecientes a una serie de tabemae, fechadas en la segunda mitad del siglo V, con un momento de abandono de finales del siglo VI d. C. (Laiz y Ruiz, 1988). (...

Un edículo republicano dedicado a Atargatis en Carthago Nova

A group of architectural structures found at the NE sector of Molinete´s hill in Cartagena are estudied. Consisting on a sacred room and hydraulics installations with a opus signinum pavement where a dedication to Atargatis is written. Near, there is a large base that could be considered as a temple podium. The cronologhy at the end of the second century B.C. suggests the direct penetration of the cult from the Near East and its trasmission by Syrian slaves and freedmen, well-known in Charthago Nova.Se analiza un conjunto de estructuras halladas en el sector nororicntal del cerro del Molinete (Cartagena). Consisten en un edículo pavimentado con opus signinum en el que se halla inscrita una dedicación a Atargatis asociado a una serie de cubetas e instalaciones de carácter hídrico. Al lado, restos de un gran basamento que podrían constituir el podium de un templo. La cronología de finales del siglo II a.C. indica la penetración directa de estos cultos desde oriente y su trasmisión a través de los esclavos y libertos sirios, bien documentados en la epigrafía de la ciudad

Contextos cerámicos de los siglos V-VII en Cartagena

The excavations realized in the Roman theatre of Cartagena have documented a wide stratigraphie sequence with covers levels from IInd century B.C. to today. The material contexts of Vth to VIIth B.C. are specially interesting because they were associated with considerable removals of the town planning. The construction of a comercial site in the second half of the Vth century, markets and stores, built on a big exedra with portico and 15 divisions in line, represents the total use of the theatre, the structures of which became fossilized, in part, in a new shape. A village of Byzantin age was built over both constructions, characterized with quadrangular rooms which alternates with opened public spaces and irregular streets adjusted to the artificial and inclined topography dependent on the precedent constructions.Las excavaciones realizadas en el teatro romano de Cartagena han documentado una amplia secuencia estratigráfica que abarca desde niveles del siglo II a. de C. hasta nuestros días. Especialmente interesantes son los contextos materiales de los siglos V al VII, asociados a profundas remociones de carácter urbanístico. La construcción en la segunda mitad del siglo V de un complejo comercial, mercado/almacén, estructurado sobre una gran exedra porticada y una serie de 15 compartimentos alineados, representa la amortización total del edificio del teatro cuyas estructuras en parte fosiliza el nuevo conjunto. Encima de ambas construcciones se construyó un barrio de época bizantina caracterizado por habitaciones de forma cuadrangular que alternan con espacios comunes abiertos y calles de trazado irregular adaptadas a la topografía artificial y en pendiente impuesta por las construcciones precedentes

Orientatio ad sidera: Astronomy and landscape in Qart Hadašt/Carthago Nova

[ES] Las investigaciones arqueológicas en Cartagena –la antigua Qart Hadašt púnica, posterior Carthago Nova romana– evidencian la existencia de elementos topográficos, urbanísticos y rituales, susceptibles de ser analizados desde la perspectiva de la Astronomía Cultural. Por ello, en octubre de 2013 un equipo interdisciplinar de astrofísicos y arqueólogos realizó una campaña de mediciones de los principales hitos topográficos y arqueológicos de la ciudad púnica y romana. Metodológicamente, para cada ítem se estableció el criterio básico de orientación y se tomó su azimut utilizando tres tándems de brújula de precisión más clinómetro. Los datos obtenidos demuestran la relevancia en la ciudad antigua de una serie de orientaciones hacia la salida y la puesta del sol en el solsticio de verano, cuya significación se integra plenamente en el contexto del ritual fenicio-púnico. Dicho sentido pudo incorporarse y reinterpretarse en el contexto de las posteriores refundaciones romanas y de sus sucesivos programas urbanísticos y arquitectónicos, en particular el del período augústeo, cuando determinadas orientaciones astronómicas pudieron servir para afianzar la imagen de Roma y el princeps como restauradores de la paz y garantes de un nuevo orden fundado en elementos cosmológicos.[EN] Archaeological investigations in Cartagena -the ancient Punic Qart Hadašt, Roman Carthago Nova- have manifested the existence of ritual, urban and topographical elements that could be analyzed from the perspective of Cultural Astronomy. Therefore, in October 2013, an interdisciplinary team of astronomers and archaeologists conducted a field campaign of the main topographic and archaeological landmarks of the Punic and Roman periods of the city. Methodologically, a basic guide criterion was established for each particular element, measuring its corresponding azimuth(s). Three tandems, including precision compasses and clinometers, were used to take the measurements. The data obtained have demonstrated the relevance, within the ancient city, of a series of orientations towards sunrise and sunset at the summer solstice, whose significance could be fully integrated within the context of the Punic ritual. This skyscaping was merged and reinterpreted in the framework of the subsequent Roman appropriation of the city landscape, including their successive urban and architectural programs, in particular that of the period of Emperor Augustus, when certain astronomical orientations could serve to strengthen the image of Rome and the 'Princeps' as restorers of peace and guarantees of a new order based in cosmological elements.Peer Reviewe

Effectiveness of an intervention for improving drug prescription in primary care patients with multimorbidity and polypharmacy:Study protocol of a cluster randomized clinical trial (Multi-PAP project)

This study was funded by the Fondo de Investigaciones Sanitarias ISCIII (Grant Numbers PI15/00276, PI15/00572, PI15/00996), REDISSEC (Project Numbers RD12/0001/0012, RD16/0001/0005), and the European Regional Development Fund ("A way to build Europe").Background: Multimorbidity is associated with negative effects both on people's health and on healthcare systems. A key problem linked to multimorbidity is polypharmacy, which in turn is associated with increased risk of partly preventable adverse effects, including mortality. The Ariadne principles describe a model of care based on a thorough assessment of diseases, treatments (and potential interactions), clinical status, context and preferences of patients with multimorbidity, with the aim of prioritizing and sharing realistic treatment goals that guide an individualized management. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a complex intervention that implements the Ariadne principles in a population of young-old patients with multimorbidity and polypharmacy. The intervention seeks to improve the appropriateness of prescribing in primary care (PC), as measured by the medication appropriateness index (MAI) score at 6 and 12months, as compared with usual care. Methods/Design: Design:pragmatic cluster randomized clinical trial. Unit of randomization: family physician (FP). Unit of analysis: patient. Scope: PC health centres in three autonomous communities: Aragon, Madrid, and Andalusia (Spain). Population: patients aged 65-74years with multimorbidity (≥3 chronic diseases) and polypharmacy (≥5 drugs prescribed in ≥3months). Sample size: n=400 (200 per study arm). Intervention: complex intervention based on the implementation of the Ariadne principles with two components: (1) FP training and (2) FP-patient interview. Outcomes: MAI score, health services use, quality of life (Euroqol 5D-5L), pharmacotherapy and adherence to treatment (Morisky-Green, Haynes-Sackett), and clinical and socio-demographic variables. Statistical analysis: primary outcome is the difference in MAI score between T0 and T1 and corresponding 95% confidence interval. Adjustment for confounding factors will be performed by multilevel analysis. All analyses will be carried out in accordance with the intention-to-treat principle. Discussion: It is essential to provide evidence concerning interventions on PC patients with polypharmacy and multimorbidity, conducted in the context of routine clinical practice, and involving young-old patients with significant potential for preventing negative health outcomes.
