Neuware - Band V des CIIP umfasst die Inschriften aus Galiläa, d.h. das Gebiet Israels von der Grenze zum Libanon bis zu den palästinensischen Gebieten im Westjordanland und von der Mittelmeerküste bis zum See Genezareth und zum Jordantal. Der chronologische Rahmen reicht von der Zeit Alexanders d. Gr. bis zum Ende der byzantinischen Herrschaft im 7. Jh.

Die meisten Inschriften sind in Griechisch abgefasst. Daneben finden sich Texte in Latein, vornehmlich in militärischem Kontext, sowie in Hebräisch und Aramäisch, etwa in der jüdischen Nekropole von Beth She'arim und den zahlreichen Synagogen. Auch Texte in Samaritanisch und Palmyrenisch sind vertreten. Die mehr als 2.000 Texte sind geographisch nach den Fundplätzen angeordnet. Sie stammen von über 150 Orten, darunter vielen fast unbekannten mit nur wenigen Texten sowie aus größeren Städten wie Hippos, Ptolemais, Scythopolis, Sepphoris oder Tiberias. Hinzu kommen Orte, die weniger bekannt sind, aber umfangreiche Konvolute von Inschriften aufweisen, so die Eliasgrotte auf dem Karmel mit fast 200 griechischen Pilgerinschriften oder die Thermenanlage in Hammath Gader mit über 70 spätantiken griechischen Inschriften.

Alexander von Humboldt, sometimes called 'the last man who knew everything', was an extraordinary polymath of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. In 1798 he received unprecedented permission from the Spanish Crown to explore its American and Caribbean colonies, which he did from 1799-1804. This is the journal of those explorations, in which he extensively covers the region's topography, geology, fauna and flora, anthropology and comparative linguistics. Volume III sees him recording more information on Venezuela, visiting Cuba where he also writes about local politics and speaks out fervently against the slave trade; he then sails for Colombia. The volume ends with a comprehensive geognostic description of the northern part of South America.

The biggest enemy of any garden is not a pest, disease, or poison it’s any plant with tougher survival skills than the plants it competes with. The best way to weed out the invaders is with this fiendishly clever guide to native plants that can seek and destroy the top 100 most unwelcome perennials, grasses, vines, shrubs, and trees. While replacing the invaders, the beautiful, hardy native plants described here also attract native birds and butterflies, while turning away their own enemy invaders. Word-and-picture guides provide tips on care and maintenance, while helpful at a glance” boxes depict shapes, sizes, best locations, and most attractive features of each native alternative.

One of the greatest nineteenth-century scientist-explorers, Alexander von Humboldt traversed the tropical Spanish Americas between 1799 and 1804. By the time of his death in 1859, he had won international fame for his scientific discoveries, his observations of Native American peoples and his detailed descriptions of the flora and fauna of the 'new continent'. The first to draw and speculate on Aztec art, to observe reverse polarity in magnetism and to discover why America is called America, his writings profoundly influenced the course of Victorian culture, causing Darwin to reflect: 'He alone gives any notion of the feelings which are raised in the mind on first entering the Tropics.'For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

Since the time of Alexander the Great and Hannibal, many armies have had to fight their way through mountain passes, but it was not until the advent of World War I that mountain fastnesses became actual battlefields. Arctic regions figured even less in 20th century military thinking, yet warfare in these frozen wastes can be traced back to the Stone Age. In this major survey, the author examines the history of warfare in these inhospitable climates and the fighting techniques necessary for snow and ice. He then considers the mountain and Arctic regions flanked by today's NATO and Warsaw Pact forces.

The Hellenistic world, ushered into existance by Alexander the Great, took in a vast region, stretching from Iraq in the east to Sicily in the west. Within this area, society was multicultural but the dominant culture was Greek, developed from the culture of classical Greece, and carrying on the legacy of classical Greece in the visual arts, literature, science, technology, and daily life.Narrative chapters guide the reader though the vast conquered lands of Hellenistic Greece, exploring marriage customs; festivals, sports, and spectacles; symposia (drinking parties); the agricultural and urban components of the polis (city-state); food; drink; education; science; technology; and the legacy of the Hellenistic age in the modern world.

Charlotte was a hotbed of Revolutionary activity well before the fervency of revolt reached its boiling point in New England. Considered a wild frontier region at the time, Mecklenburg County welcomed the Reverend Alexander Craighead with ready hands for battle. Craighead's fiery rhetoric inspired the people of the region to action. What resulted was the creation of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence, the first such document in the nation, and although the county had less than 3 percent of the colony's population, its Patriots accounted for over one-quarter of North Carolina's Revolutionary troops. Join author Richard P. Plumer as he reveals how the Queen City played an integral role in the formation of a proud and free America.

One person’s weed is another’s wildflower, but in this book weeds of southern Texas and northern Mexico are defined as plants that are considered a nuisance to farmers or noxious to livestock in the region.The book covers 189 broad-leaved herbaceous species, grasslike plants, and grasses, encompassing 144 genera and 45 families. These include one species of fern, 142 species of dicots, and 46 species of monocots. Of the dicots, 111 species of dicots are native and 31 are introduced. Twenty-one species of monocots are native, and 25 are introduced.The species descriptions include color photographs, family names, common names, scientific names, general descriptions, and the ecological characteristics of the weeds. Voucher specimens for most of the plants are on file in the University of Texas–Pan American Herbarium.Although this book focuses on plants that occur on both sides of the Rio Grande in Texas and northern Mexico, the extensive ranges of many of the represented species make it a useful reference for weeds in other areas of Texas and the southwestern United States.This book will be useful to farmers and farm managers, agricultural consultants, ranchers, natural resource managers, scientists, and anyone interested in the flora of southern Texas and northern Mexico.
