“…This form is totally absent in the Late Capsian contexts analysed during the 2010 field season and seems to characterise only the Early Capsian occupation of the cave and the Capsian/Oranian transition. Scalene bladelets, together with several truncations on flakes, are present in the undated WMCS 57 site in the Libyan Marmarica east of the Gebel Akhdar (Hulin et al 2010) and geometric tools also occurred in the Hagfet al-Gama cave to the west of the Haua Fteah, in Neolithic contexts (Barker et al 2008, 194). The rarity of geometrics in the Capsian and Neolithic assemblages at the Haua Fteah is in marked contrast to their frequency in contemporary assemblages in the Maghreb (Rahmani 2003;Roubet 1979).…”

“…Moreover, three macroscopically distinct fabrics (dominated by calcite inclusions and shell temperpresumably local, but the two others arguably not), suggest that pottery was reaching the cave from regions of varied bedrock, and therefore potentially over some distance. Fuller study of this stratified material might refine the dating of the otherwise very broadly attributed sherd and lithic scatters, and small tumuli, that comprise the remainder of the data, associated with pastoral activity, for this period in Cyrenaica and the Marmarica coast to its east (Hulin 2001;Hulin et al 2009Hulin et al , 2010note in particular one indigenous assemblage of late second millennium BC date, as determined by its stratification above the Egyptian occupation layer at the Ramessid fort of Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham, east of Marsa Matruh (Simpson 2000).…”

New Light on the Silent Millennia: Mediterranean Africa, ca. 4000–900 BC

The so-called neolithization process (ca. 6000/5500–4000 BC) in Mediterranean Africa and the Sahara has been increasingly researched in recent years. In contrast, relatively little is known, especially in Mediterranean Africa, of the period between the beginnings of irreversible climatic deterioration in the Sahara, around 4000–3500 BC, and the onset of Iron Age to broadly Classical times. Why, with the exception of the Nile Delta, is our knowledge of the period between the fourth millennium BC and the threshold of the first Iron Age Phoenician and Greek colonies so limited? To what extent can this information gap be attributed to aridification in the Mediterranean zone, or is it rather a product of the failure to look for the right kinds of materials and sites, and of their relative visibility? In order to answer these questions, this paper focuses specifically on Mediterranean Africa (with the exception of Egypt) from about 4000 BC to ca. 900 BC. It is mainly based on the data made available on MedAfriCarbon, a spatially linked, publicly accessible database and web app comprising the 14C chronometric evidence from Mediterranean Africa from 12,000 to 600 cal. BC, with details of associated cultural and economic information. Analysis of these data shows that most of Mediterranean Africa beyond the Nile was occupied to different extents throughout the 3000-year period covered in this article and that, with a few important exceptions, the robust and resilient nature of local, mainly pastoral, ways of life militated against a shift towards a fully agricultural economy.

“…The hemodialysis process is an intervention that is carried out throughout the patient's life with the frequency of action every 2-3 times / week the duration of each hemodialysis takes 4-6 hours per hemodialysis session. As per the regulation, the minimum hemodialysis service is 10-12 hours per week [9].…”

End stage renal disease (ESRD) can lead to death and requires replacement therapy. Hemodialysis is a lifelong therapy with a frequency of 2-3 times per week for 4-5 hours per session. Prolonged dialysis can cause stress and various psychological and social problems that can lead to psychological disorders. Fatigue is also a common feeling experienced by 60-97% of patients undergoing hemodialysis. This study used a two-group pretest-posttest design with t-tests for analysing bivariate data and frequency distribution for univariate data. Measurements were taken before and after giving foot reflexology and back massages using the FAS Fatigue Assessment Scale. There were 48 patients who experienced fatigue. After being given the intervention, there was a decrease in the value of the fatigue scale by 1.32 with a p-value < 0.01. It can be concluded that foot reflexology and back massage have an effect on reducing feelings of fatigue in hemodialysis patients. Keywords: end stage renal disease (ESRD), foot reflexology and back massage, fatigue
