Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Not tonight, darling, I've got a headache...' An estimated one in three couples suffer from problems associated with one partner having a higher libido than the other. Marriage therapist Michele Weiner Davis has written THE SEX-STARVED MARRIAGE to help couples come to terms with this problem. Weiner Davis shows you how to address pyschological factors like depression, poor body image and communication problems that affect sexual desire. With separate chapters for the spouse that's ready for action and the spouse that's ready for sleep, THE SEX-STARVED MARRIAGE will help you re-spark your passion and stop you fighting about sex. Weiner Davis is renowned for her straight-talking style and here she puts it to great use to let you know you're not alone in having marital sex problems. Bitterness or complacency about ho-hum sex can ruin a marriage, breaking the emotional tie of good sex.

Book The So Pots of Central Africa

Download or read book The So Pots of Central Africa written by Graham Connah and published by BAR International Series. This book was released on 2019 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African Archaeology, Volume 91 This book is an original study of very large pots in parts of Chad, Cameroon and Nigeria. Found in excavations and surface fieldwork, they have been attributed to the So, a group of pre-Islamic inhabitants of the area before the sixteenth century AD, who have become mythologised as giants. Originally for burial, in some cases the pots have been dug up by villagers and reused: for brewing beer or as dye pits for indigo cloth. The book focuses on a group of these pots that survived until the late twentieth century in villages in a small part of Borno, north-eastern Nigeria. With the passage of time and terrorist activities in the region, their fate is now unknown and the photographs from 1963 to 1993 reproduced in this book have become a major archive of an unusual pottery group.

Book Persepolis West  Fars  Iran

Download or read book Persepolis West Fars Iran written by ʻAlī Riz̤ā ʻAsgarī Chāvardī and published by BAR International Series. This book was released on 2017 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the final report on the field work carried out in 2008 and 2009 by the Iranian-Italian Joint Archaeological Mission at the archaeological site of Persepolis West, where parts of the town adjacent to the well-known Achaemenid monumental terrace of Persepolis have been located. The eleven trial trenches excavated in areas indicated by the results of Iranian and Iranian-French geophysical surveys represent the first stratigraphic excavations ever carried out on this site, the dating of which is supported by a rich series of radiocarbon datings. Illustration of the excavations is preceded by an accurate geophysical study of the topographical context and accompanied by a detailed and richly illustrated analysis of pottery and other finds: the safe stratigraphic context makes these finds a particularly important source of evidence for our knowledge of the ceramics of Fars during the historic pre-Islamic age. The excavations largely confirm the location of the built-up area of Parsa indicated by geophysical surveys.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volumeoffers a selection of case studies on the interface between linguistics andarchaeology. These case studies were presented at a session titled 'Archaeologyand Language' at the XV Nordic Theoretical Archaeology Group (TAG) conference,held at the University of Copenhagen in April 2015. The main goal of thesession was to present new and ongoing studies that combine aspects ofarchaeology and linguistics and theoretical perspectives on the field ofarchaeolinguistics, and to encourage new, fruitful studies on archaeology andlanguage. The questions raised in this session concern the future ofarchaeolinguistic research. What can archaeologists and linguists learn fromeach other's disciplines? What kind of research questions are particularly suitablefor future integrated studies?

Book Sasanian Clay Sealings in the Bandar Abbas Museum

Download or read book Sasanian Clay Sealings in the Bandar Abbas Museum written by Kamal Aldin Niknami and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2016 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the newly discovered assemblage of 800 Sasanianclay sealings which is now kept in the Persian Gulf Museum of Bandar Abbas,Iran. In 2012, this collection was confiscated in Bandar Khamir, HormozganProvince when in transit from Iran to UAE, and was delivered to the HormozganCenter of Cultural Heritage Organization. Unfortunately the provenance of thecollection is still unknown, but in comparison with the large Sasanian archivesof Qasr- ? Abu Nasr and Taxt- i Soleyman, which comprise 505and 241 clay sealings, respectively, such a large number of clay sealings isremarkable. The book introduces this new and hitherto unpublished archive ofSasanian clay sealings and we hope that the archive in question will expand ourknowledge of Sasanian economic systems.

Book The Zeebrugge Shipwreck

  • ISBN : 9781407316048
  • Pages : 120 pages

Download or read book The Zeebrugge Shipwreck written by Hendrik Lettany and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1990s, large numbers of mainly metal objects were discovered off the Belgian coast near the port of Zeebrugge, indicating the location of an early modern wreck-site. Though at this time no appropriate legislation in regard to such a procedure existed in Belgium, the discoverer of the finds nonetheless initiated the excavation and study of this underwater site with a team of professional divers and amateur archaeologists. Unfortunately, the project was never finalised and the data related to the excavation ended up unpublished and dispersed among several members of the excavation team. Now, more than 25 years later, the author of this book aims to collect, analyse, and reassess the initial data related to the excavation, in order to propose a substantiated interpretation of this forgotten site. In order to understand the available data, Hendrik Lettany first explores the circumstances of the excavation. The resulting data, together with the actual archaeological collection from the excavation, are then carefully discussed and interpreted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book investigates the contribution ofglass finds to understanding the nature of the transition from Byzantine toIslamic rule in Syria-Palestine, by analysing numerous glass assemblages fromJerusalem and its environs. This original synthesis explores the nature ofnumerous types of glass objects, and their distinct distribution in varioustypes of sites. Furthermore, the identification of trends of continuity andchange in the fabrics, technologies, typologies and styles of the glass findsthroughout this turbulent period, illuminates the nature of the processesundergone by the various communities in the Jerusalem area. Themonograph comprises a newly established, comprehensive, up-to-datetypo-chronology, based on hundreds of glass wares of the Byzantine and EarlyIslamic periods from scores of excavations, in and around Jerusalem and inneighbouring regions. Additionally, a holistic study of lighting devices, glasslamps and windowpanes, includes a novel assessment of Christian, Muslim andJewish written sources regarding lighting in religious buildings in Jerusalemin the relevant periods.

Book Archaeological Approaches to Breaking Boundaries

Download or read book Archaeological Approaches to Breaking Boundaries written by Rebecca O'Sullivan and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2017 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proceedings of the Graduate Archaeology at Oxford Conferences 2015-2016 This volume brings together two Graduate Archaeology at Oxford (GAO) conferences held in 2015-2016 to present the work of early-career researchers from across the globe. The papers cover a range of periods and regions, but all share the focus of bridging boundaries, whether these are theoretical, methodological or geographic. Some contributors traverse traditional divisions between subjects by integrating computational approaches with early excavation data or archaeology with historical sources to produce 'thick interpretations' of the past. Several papers approach the past as a bilateral process, examining how people shaped and were in return shaped by their interactions with the world around them. In addition, many authors have directly tackled the modern political divides that influence our research. Building on a strong tradition of novel approaches and interdisciplinary methods, these proceedings present current research on directly tackling issues of division head on.
