Until now inscriptions have confirmed that the quarries of Gebel el Silsila East were in use until the time of Emperor Tiberius, but recent findings indicate that the quarrying process continued for at least another two generations. In one of the many smaller quarries three men carved their name repeatedly on the quarry walls, and dated their visits to a four year period, between the sixth and ten

Opinion mining on social media posts has become more and more popular. Users often express their opinion on a topic not only with words but they also use image symbols such as emoticons and emoji. In this paper, we investigate the effect of emoji-based features in opinion classification of Uzbek texts, and more specifically movie review comments from YouTube. Several classification algorithms are

Dissociation of a 227 MeV/u 8He beam in a lead target has been studied in a kinematically complete experiment. The results are compared with similar data from the well-known halo nucleus 6He. Coulomb–nuclear interference in the inelastic channel gives evidence for a Iπ=1− resonance in 8He at Ex=4.15 MeV. The deduced B(E1) value of 0.38±0.07 e2 fm2 indicates a uniform distribution of the four neutr

Natthimlen är både vacker och full av gåtor.

A desire to comprehend the Universe may well be humanity’s oldest shared intellectual experience. Yet only recently have we truly begun to grasp our place in the vast cosmos. To learn about this journey of celestial discovery, from the theories of the

We present a newly funded research program, DESCRYPT, aimed at deciphering and analyzing historical texts with rare or unknown scripts. The project leverages advancements in computational linguistics, artificial intelligence (AI), and image processing, alongside traditional philological methods, to develop innovative tools for transcription, recognition, and interpretation of historical writings w

The paper aims to perform a comparative analysis of two Byzantine chronicles focused on their tendency towards emperor Basil I (r. 867-86). The chronicles in question are the so-called chronicle of Symeon the Logothete and the collection of writings that is commonly referred to as Theophanes Continuatus. Both are thought to have been written during the active reign of Basil's grandson Constant

Denna uppsats syftar till att rekonstruera och analysera den dröminkubationsritual som tillskrivs den grekisk hellenistiske guden Asklepios. Det empiriska materialet utgörs av Iamatainskriptionerna från 300-talet fvt och texter från 100-talet tillskrivna författare som Philostratus, Marcus Julius Apellas och Aristides. Rekonstruktionen och analysen utgår ifrån ritualteorier, främst formulerade av
