Opis:
Ślady linii papilarnych ujawniane metodą cyjanoakrylową na podłożach niechłonnych w celu poprawy czytelności wymagają dodatkowego kontrastowania barwnikami fluorescencyjnymi. Nile Red zaliczany jest do jednych z nich. Skuteczność jego działania sprawdzono w warunkach zbliżonych do codziennej praktyki laboratoryjnej. Najwyższa fluorescencja Nile Red wystąpiła przy wzbudzeniu światłem niebieskozielonym w długości fali 505 nm. Analiza widm spektralnych wykazała, że emisja światła oscyluje w zakresie długości fali około 630 nm. W celu odcięcia światła wzbudzającego fluorescencję można użyć filtrów krawędziowych długofalowych barw: żółtej, pomarańczowej lub czerwonej. Wybór filtra uzależniony jest od charakterystyki podłoża i można dobrać go doświadczalnie. Fluorescencja Nile Red nie ulega zmianie w dłuższym przedziale czasowym, co pozwala na wykonanie rejestracji śladów w terminie dogodnym dla wykonującego badania, bez obawy o utratę ich jakości. Nile Red może być alternatywą dla innych barwników fluorescencyjnych wykorzystywanych w wizualizacyjnych badaniach daktyloskopijnych.
Fingerprints disclosed by cyanoacrylate on non-absorbent substrates, in order to improve readability, require additional contrasting fluorescent dyes. Nile Red is one of them. Its effectiveness was tested under conditions similar to those of daily laboratory practice. The highest Nile Red fluorescence occurred in an excitation light of blue-green and a wavelength of 505nm. Spectral analysis showed that the emission of light oscillates in the wavelength of about 630nm. In order to cut off the light, longpass edge filters of the colours yellow, orange or red can be used. Filter selection depends on the characteristics of the substrate and can be chosen empirically. Nile Red fluorescence does not change over a longer period of time, which allows for the registration of fingerprints to be performed within a time convenient for the testing, without fear of losing their ąuality. Nile Red may be an alternative to other fluorescent dyes used for visualization in fingerprint testing.

Opis:
The ways of presenting the Nile, as well as its roles in the works of Słowacki are to a large extent related to types of literary entity’s creation. Sometimes the river improves the cognitive opportunities, but sometimes it limits them. At times it appears to be the axis of the world, a place from which one can see the reality with a divine eye. Sometimes, however, it narrows down the perspective, blurs one’s sensitivity and leads one to a tanatic space like the mythological Styx does. The diversity of the river’s images and functions is driven mainly by the romantic subjectivity. It is variable, sometimes growing to the size of the absolute and full of almost cosmic energy, and sometimes shrinking, escaping from the world’s din, looking for the calm in a closed, isolated land of deadly dreams. The poet never follows the traditionally-established pattern of showing the Nile as a source of life and water which provides Egypt with economic welfare. Geography, economics and politics give way to a peculiar romantic humanism in Słowacki’s works. What truly matters is discovering and establishing the relationship between man and the nature, history and transcendence

Opis:
A refined, stratigraphic and biostratigraphic framework for Ethiopia has a strong bearing on the Jurassic sedimentary evolution, not only for the Horn of Africa, but also for the North African region. The present contribution provides an updated Callovian-Kimmeridgian stratigraphy and biostratigraphy, on the basis of the occurrences of age-diagnostic ammonites from Dejen (Blue Nile Basin; central western Ethiopia). Here, the late Callovian (Lamberti Zone) ammonite Pachyceras cf. lalandeanum (d'Orbigny) is associated with the nautiloid Paracenoceras cf. giganteum (d'Orbigny). The early Kimmeridgian Orthosphinctes aff. tiziani (Oppel) is associated with the nautiloids Paracenoceras cf. kumagunense (Waagen) and P. cf. ennianus (Dacqué) and a large gastropod Purpuroidea gigas (Étallon). The previously recorded middle Callovian ammonite Erymnoceras cf. coronatum (Bruguiere) is associated with the now recorded P. gigas (Étallon). Additionally, the age of the Antalo Limestone Fm is also reassessed on the basis of the ammonite records from the three basins - Ogaden, Blue Nile and Mekele. The Ogaden Basin strata span from the late Callovian to the late Tithonian (from ammonite records), the Blue Nile Basin from the early Callovian to the late Tithonian (calcareous nannofossils) and the Mekele Basin from the uppermost middle Oxfordian to the early Kimmeridgian (ammonite records). However, the upper age assignments should be considered tentative, as much of the previously recorded Oxfordian-Kimmeridgian ammonite fauna needs taxonomic re-evaluation and precise resampling. Contextually, it should be mentioned that in all the three sedimentary basins, the top part of the Antalo Limestone Fm did not yield any ammonites.

Opis:
In the light of new finds (especially from Tell el-Farkha) it seems that the Nile Delta sites had great significance not only in developing contacts between Egypt and Canaan but also in the process which finally led to the formation of the Egyptian state. It is also obvious that a number of sites of that period occur in that region (especially in the North-Eastern part of the Nile Delta). Several of them were localized during the surveys conducted in the discussed area almost twenty years ago but only a few of them were later researched archaeologically. Further data concerning the early history of the Nile Delta were obtained recently (2008) during the Polish Archaeological Survey in Ash-Sharqiyyah Governorate. The results of the survey were quite promising. Of the six sites visited, two yielded pottery material from the beginning of the Egyptian state. Of these two, the site of Tell el-Murra seems to be most suitable for further research due to the good state of preservation, the results of geophysical research and geological core drillings as well as the chronology of the material found on the surface.

Opis:
Foundation platforms with casemate construction appeared in Egypt in the middle of the second millennium BC, but the most complete development of them is related to the first millennium BC. At this time, casemate technique became widespread and extremely influential in the urban landscape. Given the area where most casemate platforms have been identified, the diversity of structures which were erected on such foundation or the range of chronology of these layouts, the complexity of the discussed issue should be mentioned here. This highlights the necessity of recognizing why this form of foundation came into being and how it developed. The factors which are to be included in this analysis are: construction quality of casemate platforms, natural conditions and political circumstances in which they could be raised and, moreover, religious beliefs or social and demographic changes. This multifaceted subject allows us to realize how complex cultural phenomenon Egyptian civilization was and what information could be obtained thanks to an analysis of its urban architecture.

Opis:
Research on settlement patterns in the Nile Delta in the 3rd millennium BC is still in its infancy. The work to date has been limited mainly to microregions and is related to the surveys conducted intensively since the 1980s, especially in the northeastern Delta and the area of Tell el-Fara’in/Buto. Recent inventorying and mapping work by the Egypt Exploration Society Delta Survey, which included also the results of new fieldwork, has created a map presenting the distribution of the Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom settlements in the Delta. Assuming that the recognized distribution of sites reflects to some extent the ancient settlement network, it gives grounds for considering the underlying reasons behind its formation. This paper highlights factors that could be of key significance for understanding this phenomenon, identifying areas that were pivotal to the process and those clearly marginal in their role. In effect, planning ground surveys and excavation research should gain in effectiveness.

Opis:
Salinty of soils is the factor leading to the limitation of agriculture. Due to the reduction of suitable fields farming is also reduced. As a consequence farmers have to leave farms. This problem is specially important in Egypt where cultivated land is limited to the Nile Valley. A mineralogical and geological investigation of this phenomenon is conducted at Heracompolis and surrounding areas showed the presence of the following minerals as white salty coatings covering the surface of local soils: The absence of natural floods of Nile stopped due to the construction of the Aswan Dam is the reason for the continuous elevation of the degree of the salinity of soils. Evapotarion of water used for agriculture cannot be prevented but the process of mineralization has to be stopped if Egypt wants to avoid reduced food production.

Northern Egypt was always an unusually important area for our study on the history of ancient Egyptian state. The “country of papyrus” called by Egyptians temehu, their feeder and granary, a communication centre important for contacts with Levant. Several Egyptian capitals were also located here and during the antic period the region became a centre of culture, sciences and the cradle of Coptic religion. Paradoxically, this curious area was until quite lately very poorly investigated. Even now the problems of modern Egypt related with farming activities, demographic development and industrial spread as well as with the traditional way of thinking are clearly visible in this particular important region.

Opis:
The 3rd millennium BC appears to be a key period of development of the historical settlement landscape in ancient Egypt. After the unification of the country, the process of disappearance of the predynastic socio-political structures and settlement patterns associated with them significantly accelerated. Old chiefdoms, along with their centres and elites, declined and vanished. On the other hand, new settlements emerging in various parts of the country were often strictly related to the central authorities and formation of the new territorial administration. Not negligible were climatic changes, which influenced the shifting of the ecumene. Although these changes were evolutionary in their nature, some important stages may be recognized. According to data obtained during surveys and excavations, there are a number of sites that were considerably impoverished and/or abandoned before and at the beginning of the Old Kingdom. On the other hand, during the Third and Fourth Dynasties some important Egyptian settlements have emerged in the sources and begun their prosperity. Architectural remains as well as written sources indicate the growing interest of the state in the hierarchy of landscape elements and territorial structure of the country.

Thirty-four identified in addition to five unidentified species appertaining to ten genera of zoosporic fungi were identified and isolated from eighty four polluted water samples, which were randomly collected from different polluted sites of the water drainages along the Niles Delta in Lower Egypt. Baiting sesame seeds culture technique was employed at 20±2°C for the recovery of zoosporic fungi. The genera; Pythium and Saprolegnia (8 and 7 zoosporic fungal species, respectively) showed the broadest spectra of species diversity whereas Aqualinderella was only represented by one species (A. fermentans). Saprolegnia delica and Dictyuchus carpophorus(the greatest fungal populations) were the most dominant isolated zoosporic fungal species where they were highly occurred especially at the hyperpolluted waters with the heavy metals. These two species could be considered as indicators for the response of the structure and function of microbial communities for water pollution. Several zoosporic fungal species were rarely encountered. Both Aqualinderella fermentansand Pythium rostratumwere recovered in moderate frequency of occurrence. Water samples which had high concentrations in heavy metals were the poorest in the species diversity of zoosporic fungi. Despite that, fungal species belonging to the family Saprolegniaceaeflourished in hyper polluted water samples whilst those belonging to the family Pythiaceae predominated in more diluted water samples. Also, the prevalent species; S. delica andD. carpophoruswere not affected by heavy metals concentrations being as indicators for water pollution with the heavy metals. pH values of the polluted water samples had no influence on the occurrence of zoosporic fungi. Water samples characterized by high organic matter content and low total soluble salts were the richest in zoosporic fungal species.

The article presents the results of ethnographic research aimed at recording household economic behaviours within rural communities in the Ad-Dabba Bend of the Nile. The field research conducted in 2015–2019 provided first-hand insight into patterns of the gendered village’s ceramic production. The only currently operating household workshops in the area, located in Jabarūna and Rūmī Bakrī, are both run by women who produce mainly vessels for storing and cooling water and incense burners. Local residents remember many other similar workshops run by both women and men, which operated quite recently. The potteries in Ad-Dabba, representing a bigger and better organised workshop industry, are run by male descendants of immigrants from Nigeria, known in Sudan as Takarna. The pottery making is their only source of income and the range of forms they make is varied.

The investigation focused on Trench T5, where settlement remains dated mostly from the Early Dynastic period were explored in its northern part, and early Old Kingdom structures in the southern part. Settlement remains of Lower Egyptian culture were also excavated in Trench S3B. Continued research on the Early Dynastic cemetery in Trench S3 yielded eight more graves, both pit burials and chambered tombs. In one case, the body was placed additionally in a pottery coffin. The results contribute new data on Early Dynastic settlement architecture and burial customs, as well as the oldest habitation associated with Lower Egyptian culture.

The chemical composition of groundwater is affected by many features, including the impact caused by surrounding rocks. The Nile aquifer is surrounded by the calcareous structural plateau along the Assiut governorate on both sides. This paper aims at studying the effect of surrounding rocks on the chemical composition of groundwater in the Nile aquifer along the Assiut governorate. Fifty-five samples were taken from drinking water stations and irrigation wells in 2015, and then analyzed chemically in water and soil fertility laboratory located in the irrigation ministry in Assiut. Aquachem software package was used to determine the groundwater type and rock source deduction. Piper-trilinear diagram was plotted to show the hydrochemical facies. Furthermore, Gibbs diagram was applied to determine the correlation between water composition and aquifer lithological characteristics. The results revealed that nearly all of the groundwater samples drop in the water-rock interaction field. The results of rock source deduction show that the ratio of Cl to the sum of anions is less than 0.8 for all samples, concluding that the rock weathering is dominant. According to the criterion of TDS values, 78% of all the samples indicated that the carbonate weathering is prevalent; in turn, the ratio of Mg to Ca plus Mg shows that limestone-dolomite weathering is predominant. These results confirm that the calcareous structural plateau surrounding the Nile aquifer along the Assiut governorate has an effect on the groundwater chemistry by interacting between groundwater and limestone rocks which are the main component of the calcareous plateau.

Opis:
The river Nile is a dominating physical feature of the north- eastern part of the African continent, covering areas exhibiting varieties and contrasts in topography, climate vegetation and people. So, in this study, we estimated the contamination of the Nile sediment with some major and trace heavy metals in core samples which can cause some undesirable health effects. Concentrations of all elements shows that the maximum enrichment is found in the top subsamples, while the most elements shows low contents in the lower layer reflecting the impact of human activity on the sediment contents. Different normalizing methods were used, i.e. geoaccumulation (Igeo) and enrichment factor (EF), for the influence of the natural variability in sediment mineralogy and to assess whether the concentrations observed in surface sediment represent background or contaminated levels. The study has also shown the importance of different sediment characteristics in spatial distribution of heavy metals in the sediments of river Nile. To protect the ecological system of river Nile watershed, industrial mining and agricultural activities along river stream should to be strictly regulated.

In the climate change context, controlling water sources is one of the most explosive challenges to the stability of the security environment. In its quasitotality, human civilization was born in the basins of the great rivers, which provided humans with both the basic survival and development resources and natural protection against invasions. Such a watercourse is the Nile, in whose basin the great Egyptian, Nubian and Ethiopian civilizations were born. If, until recently, Egypt was the main beneficiary of the Nile's ”gifts“, Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) project, still in construction on the Blue Nile, will radically change the status quo in region. How will GERD going to influence the regional hydro-policy? Is there any risk for a regional war outbreak? And, if the answer to the previous question is a positive one, what could be the impact of an Egyptian-Ethiopian conflict on regional security?

Opis:
A mollusc thanatocenosis found in the Nile Valley on the shore of the Naser Lake contains several thousand specimens representing five species; shells of aquatic snails dominate. The coarse fraction is composed mainly of Cleopatra bulimoides (Olivier); the fine fraction – of Valvata nilotica Jickeli. Substantial differences between the mean size of mollusc shells and mineral grains in the thanatocenoses, reflected by the displacement index (DI), depend of the density (unit weight) of these components. Death assemblages deposited recently during floods resemble subfossil assemblages from Holocene deposits of the Fayum Depression (Egypt), thus testifying to the stability of the mollusc fauna inhabiting the Nile Valley during the last ten thousand years.

Opis:
The recent research in the North-Eastern Nile Delta proves that a great quantity of sites existed here during Naqada III period. These sites undoubtedly played an important role both in the developing contacts between Egypt and Canaan, as well as in the processes which led to the formation of the Egyptian state. Further data concerning the Naqada III settlements in the Nile Delta have been obtained recently, during the Polish Archaeological Survey in Ash-Sharqiyyah Governorate. Most of the work in 2010 concentrated at Tell el-Murra and Tell Abu el-Halyat and this article focuses on the pottery found at these two sites. The occurrence of potsherds dated to the Protodynastic, Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom periods at Tell el-Murra points at the fact that the latest occupation at that site should be dated to the latter. Moreover, potsherds were also found decorated with a zig-zag pattern, which are quite characteristic of the Predynastic-Lower Egyptian Culture. Most of the pottery from Tell Abu el-Halyat is dated to the Early Dynastic period, but the occurrence of several fragments which could belong both to the earlier and later forms may indicate that it was probably inhabited also during the Protodynastic as well as Old Kingdom (?) periods.

Opis:
The paper deals with the results of excavation in 2014 and 2015 at the Tell el-Murra site in the northeastern part of the Nile Delta. The investigations covered a settlement mostly from the Old Kingdom period found in trench T5; more specifically, the investigated features seem primarily connected with food production. Settlement remains from the Naqada III–possibly Early Dynastic and Protodynastic(?) periods were also explored in trench S3B. Continued research on the Early Dynastic cemetery in trench S3 yielded 16 more graves, including simple pit burials and chamber graves. In several cases bodies had been placed in pottery coffins. The presence of several mud-brick walls, possibly associated with older settlement structures, was also confirmed within the lattermost trench. Altogether the research provided new data on the settlement architecture, site development processes and burial customs invoked in the beginnings of the Egyptian state.

Opis:
Rivers have always been in great importance in the process of arising and developing the human civilisation. Many ancient cultures were very powerful because of the huge rivers systems. Such civilizations as Egypt, Mesopotamia, India and China came into being in the grand rivers valleys (Nil, Tiger, Euphrates, Indus, Ganges, Yangtze and Huang He). Nowadays those rivers also play the vital role because of the fact that of its state and affluence mainly depends the economic stability and in that connection depends also the politic stability in the countries that those rivers flow through. Those dependences and connections between people and rivers were best characterised by the Greek historian Herodotus in his saying "Egypt is a gift from the Nile". Contemporary domestic and international rules of using the rivers resources are regulated by the law rules. The international law rules mainly deal with law classification and the division of the international rivers, water transport on those rivers and the methods of making out the rivers boundaries. Determining the international law rules, effectively regulating the exploitation of the international rivers, face many obstacles. The reason of this situation are differences in exploiting the rivers resources in particular States, which depends on many aspects (economic, geographical, cultural, etc.). The very best example of the complexity of the international rivers systems matter is the Nile river. Present-da y, for the Nile's drainage basin states, establishing the new international law regulations and the arrangements concluding the rational exploitation and division of the rivers resources is the main problem. In the light of the II article of the 1966 Helsinki Rules on the Uses of the Waters of International Rivers, an international drainage basin is a geographical area extending over two or more States determined by the watershed limits of the system of waters, including surface and underground waters, flowing into a common terminus. According to this criterion, ten States count among drainage basin of the Nile river (those States are as follows: Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Burundi, Ruanda, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Those States are now developing and theirs weak national economies are based on agriculture. The Nile as one of the biggest and most resourceful river on the world, is a great opportunity for those countries to develop. Unfortunately, present international legal system does not allow to exploit the Nile’s water resources in optimal and fair way, because this system does not embrace most of the States of the drainage basin. Such situation cause conflicts and tensions in relations between those States.

The purpose of this investigation was to compare Rapid Hicoliform Agar® (RHA, Himedia, India) with the conventional m-Endo Agar (DIFCO, Michigan, USA) for detection and enumeration of Total Coliforms (TC) and with the conventional Seven Hour Fecal Coliforms Agar (7hFC) for detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli using Membrane Filtration (MF) in River Nile water, Egypt. Sixty samples were collected (five samples per month) from five regions (Kafr El-Elw, El-Maasara, El-Giza, Embaba and El-Galatma) during one year (December 2005-November 2006). The results showed that total coliforms counts ranged from 103 to 104 CFU*100ml-1 using RHA but using m-Endo Agar the counts were around 104 CFU*100ml-1. Escherichia coli counts ranged from 103 to 104 CFU*100ml-1 using 7hFC Agar, while using RHA the counts ranged from 103 to 104 CFU*100ml-1. Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference (p=0.423) between total coliforms counts using m-Endo Agar and RHA media, also, there was no significant difference (p=0.546) between fecal coliforms (E. coli) counts using 7hFC Agar and RHA media. We conclude that RHA is a potential alternative medium for detection and enumeration of total coliforms and E. coli at the same time and the same Petri dish within 24h. Also, RHA medium was a very sensitive medium, which did not require any confirmatory tests and secured rapid recovery of total coliforms or E. coli.

Próbki pochodziły zarówno z cegieł jak i materiału znajdującego się miedzy cegłami, Badania wykazały, że temperatury wypału ceguieł i materiału znajdującego się miedzy nimi okazjonalnie w niektórych miejscach przekraczały 800o C. Ponadto małe, pojedyncze fragmenty żużelków i ziarna metalu (żelazo z tytanem) zostały odkryte w materiale znajdującym się między cegłami. Badania dowodzą, że temperatura panująca w całych obiektach była zdecydowanie zbyt wysoka do produkcji piwa.
Mineralogical, petrographical as well as geochemical investigation of so called “brewery “ discovered in Tel el Farkha archaeological site were performed. Samples of roller shape bricks as well as accompanying material for examination were collected. Examination showed temperature of firing of bricks of all discovered “brewerys” were at some places even above 800o C what is difficult obtain without additional air blowing. Observed microscopically thermal alternation of bricks of all places et examined objects was to high for production of bier. Examination confirmed at some places the presence of small fragments of Fe slag, and rare grains of metals (pure iron).

Excavations at Tell el-Farkha in 2012 and 2013 were conducted on all three koms making up the site. The upper layers excavated on the Western Kom during the first campaign were connected with the beginning of phase 4 at Tell el-Farkha and the lower layers with phase 3. A few poorly preserved rooms were unearthed, mainly in the southern part of the trench. Also part of a brewery dated to Naqada IIIA1 was explored. A rectangular building with thick walls discovered on the Central Kom was most probably the remains of a big Naqadian store. Results of geophysical research from 2000 were verified; excavations uncovered a round edifice, 7 m in diameter, surrounded by a wall almost 2 m thick. In a test trench on the Eastern Kom, a rectangular room (2.50 m by 6 m) with two regular entrances from north and south was unearthed. In the main trench, work concentrated on the area north and south of the monumental mastaba uncovered a few seasons earlier.

This study was initiated to achieve the specific objectives as identification of factors that affect market participation decision of households and identification of factors that determine the volume of market supply of pepper. In order to acquire the relevant data, formal and informal methods of data collection were accomplished. To differentiate factors affecting the market participation and the amount of pepper sold, the Heckman Two-Stage econometric model was employed. The result revealed that market participation decision of households and amount of pepper sold were significantly affected by many of the variables hypothesized to have impact on the explained variable. In order to settle price fluctuations and to strengthen the bargaining power of producers, there should be product grading for market standardization. Furthermore, market competitiveness, structure and efficiency can be improved through facilitating pepper market strategies training as it helps producers and other interested bodies better involve in the commodity market.
Celem pracy było rozpoznanie czynników determinujących udział w handlu oraz podejmowanie przez właścicieli gospodarstw rolnych decyzji dotyczących wysokości produkcji papryki dostarczanej na rynek. Zastosowano zarówno formalne, jak i nieformalne metody pozyskiwania odpowiednich danych. Dwustopniowy ekonometryczny model Heckmana zastosowany w tej pracy zakładał zróżnicowanie i określenie czynników mających wpływ na decyzję o udziale w handlu rynkowym i wysokość oferty rynkowej. Otrzymane wyniki wykazały, że na omawiane decyzje, odnoszące się do wyjaśnianej zmiennej, znaczący wpływ miały hipotetycznie zakładane zmienne. Stwierdzono konieczność jakościowego określenia produktu dla celów standaryzacji rynkowej po to, ażeby ustalić fluktuacje cen i wzmocnić moc przetargową producentów. Należy dodać, że konkurencyjność rynkową, strukturę i wydajność można poprawić poprzez zapewnienie producentom i innym zainteresowanym szkoleń z zakresu handlu papryką, co służyłoby znaczniejszemu zaangażowaniu na rynku produktów rolnych.

This paper presents the results of stratigraphic excavation and soil studies carried out at Mograt Island, the largest of the Nilotic islands in Sudan. Due to its restricted insular environments, Holocene alluvial deposits were observed to be interlocked with archaeological remains of different periods, allowing for a combined chronostratigraphic approach to study both cultural and climatic events. To better understand the environmental context through soil components and pedological features at a microscopic scale, soil block samples were accordingly collected and studied by the application of soil micromorphology. This approach provides insights into the history of Nile terrace aggradation through the suspension of Nile sediment loads under stillwater conditions as well as of the periodical establishment of shallow water pools at the islands’ plateaus by the surface run-off from local rains. Since these patterns vary significantly from the present situation, they offer a key to the scenario in which specific early agricultural and animal herding practices evolved.

Opis:
The realities of rural life of North Sudan described in this article by no means come from the region of particular cultural features and high existence standard. They represent an above-average cultural situation of rural areas in the valley of the Central Nile. All the more they seem to be important and interesting for the researchers of this part of Africa these days. The northern part of Sudan is still little known, especially when it comes to modern times. Despite that, however, we realize that also in this part of the African continent have been undergoing great modernization changes which to a large extent and often irreversibly transform life and landscape of this place. The author, by means of presenting particular elements of village topography and everyday life, tries to outline the current existence image of this place in Africa, at the same time, putting an emphasis on changes taking place. The material presented in this article mostly comes from the author’s own field studies conducted in Sudan between the third and fourth cataracts.

The first stage focuses on field studies, during which a general geological profile was prepared and samples for laboratory tests were collected. In the next stage, laboratory analyses were conducted: with the use of binocular magnifying glasses, small fractions being the result of the slaking of fragments of the samples from the profile were examined. Then, mineralogical and petrographic examinations of dried bricks were conducted—these included determining the mineral and grainy composition of samples from light and dark bricks. Later, anthropogenic examinations of coals were conducted; the aim of the analysis was to determine their sorption properties. Finally, the results were presented, which included sketches, photographs, microphotographs, tables, and diagrams; the research was summarized, and conclusions that could be drawn from it were demonstrated. The paper helped solve interesting problems on the border of mineralogy, geology, and archeology. All of the conducted research is innovative in nature and contributes much new and important information helping explore this site and the activities of people from thousands of years ago.
W trakcie badań w pierwszym etapie skoncentrowano się na badaniach terenowych. Sporządzono generalny profil geologiczny oraz pobrano próbki konieczne do badań laboratoryjnych. W następnym etapie wykonano analizy laboratoryjne. Przy pomocy lupy binokularnej przyjrzano się drobnym frakcjom pochodzącym z rozlasowania fragmentów próbek z profilu. Potem przeprowadzono badania mineralogiczno-petrograficzne cegieł suszonych. Obejmowały one określenie składu mineralnego i ziarnowego próbek z cegieł jasnych i ciemnych. Później zajęto się badaniami antropogenicznych węgli. Celem analizy było określenie ich właściwości sorpcyjnych. Na zakończenie zaprezentowano wyniki badań, w których zawarto szkice, fotografie, mikrofotografie, tabele i diagramy oraz dokonano podsumowania badań i przedstawiono wnioski, jakie można z nich wyciągnąć. Powstanie pracy pozwoliło na rozwiązanie ciekawych problemów z pogranicza mineralogii, geologii i archeologii. Wszystkie przeprowadzone badania mają charakter nowatorski i wnoszą dużą ilość nowych i istotnych informacji pozwalających poznać stanowisko oraz aktywność ludzi przed tysiącami lat.

The article reviews the share that Vespasian had in the decoration of the Temple of Osiris Nesmeti on Elephantine. It is considered in the context of a report of Cassius Dio (LXVI 8, 1) who associated that ruler’s entry into Alexandria with an exceptional rise of flooding waters and also in view of the connection of that report with the Egyptian royal ideology which identified the king with the Nile and its flooding. The Vespasian’s decoration of the Temple of Osiris Nesmeti is analyzed in the light of representations of Nilus on the monumental staircase leading to the temple and of the stele of Florence (no. 4021).

Archaeological fieldwork in the Kushite temple in Soniyat (Tergis 40) was conducted from 1997 to 2001 with an additional short season in 2013. A team supervised by Bogdan Żurawski returned to the site in 2016 to continue the excavation of the southern section of the complex. Remains of substantial mud-brick architecture were discovered together with large quantities of small finds (potsherds and objects made of metal, stone and faience) and faunal remains. A compact layer of Nile alluvial deposits, about 0.10 m thick, covering the remains represented evidence most probably of a flood. A single stone column was visible at that level. The spatial distribution of the discovered architectural features matches the temple orientation; they can be interpreted as the remains of a pylon with an entrance flanked by columns.

Micro - artifacts are those fragments of anthropogenic origin, which are smaller than 2,0 mm in size, so the fragments, which go through the sieve during sifting of the material at the site. They represented fragments of bones, burnt clay, fragments of charcoal and micro-flakes of flints resulting from treatment of stone tools. The obtained results were used to draw profiles and maps of their distribution within the profile and anthropogenic trench. Obtained results were used to reconstruction of human activity in the selected areas of the site.

Opis:
The paper presents the results of an archaeological ground survey aimed to record prehistoric settlement landscape in chosen parts of the Southern Dongola Reach (Tergis, Affad and El-Nafab districts). The project fills in the gaps in earlier research on the right bank of the Nile. Numerous new sites were recorded, all reflecting a frequently occupied level of silts and sands originating in the former river valley aggradations. Prospection of locations recorded in 2003 and later demonstrated also the progressing destruction of archaeological sites on the fringes of modern settlement and the new road from Karima to Nawa.

Opis:
The slate enkolpion engraved with the Nativity scene was found in one of the dwellings to the east of the Upper Church (Raphaelion II) in Banganarti. On the reverse, it was inscribed with the names of the three main protagonists of the scene carved on the obverse. It seems to have been used very briefly before being lost. Distinctive features include a figure of St Joseph represented as a herm and the putative Star of Bethlehem rendered as a round object hovering above the manger. The Magi and the scene of the Bathing of Jesus are missing. There is also one animal instead of two at the crib and one adoring shepherd not two (or even three). The aim was evidently to present the entire theological canon of the Nativity dogma using a minimum of iconographic elements, which is hardly surprising owing to the scarcity of space. Dating on stylistic grounds is highly speculative owing to the sketchiness of the scene, but the archaeological context seems reliable, yielding pottery from AD 1020–1172, which was a time of vigorous development of the pilgrimage movement to Banganarti.

Opis:
The river theme is one of the most outstandingly presented aquatic themes of The Spirit King. It is accumulated in four scenes of the poem. In the first rhapsody: in the symptomatic descent of Her-Armenian to the Styx, Lethe or Neman; next, in Popiel’s civil war at the Vistula. In the third rhapsody (as in Juliusz Kleiner’s edition), the theme is situated in Dobravna’s dream depicting her journey by the subterranean river to sunlit Jerusalem; and also in Bolesław Śmiały’s passages across the Bug and Dnieper. Rivers in genesian landscapes become mainly conceptualised as a part of genesian psychomachia, a battle of spirits included in the realistic/historic domain of conquests, passages, massacres and attacks. As the essentials of a prewar scenery in The Spirit King, they rarely happen to be an aspect of domestic life or Slavic hierophanies. In Slavic genesian calendar, water appears to be only a companion of the mystic fire ceremonies, like the rite of St. John’s Eve or the wedding of Mieczysław and Dobrawna (L. Nawarecka). That is also the reason why the interpretation of aquatic context of The Spirit King as yet another immanent context of the ‘great Slavic epic’ seems to be a form of reductionism, as it does not consider the ‘mystic structure of Słowacki’s imagination’ (M. Cieśla-Korytowska). The Vistula is a Polish Nile, the Neman becomes a Polish Lethe and the scene of cleaning the wounds by Her-Armenian on the banks of the Neman inherits somehow (right after the poem Beniowski) the dimension of the bards’ antagonism (Mickiewicz against Słowacki). The mythical hero of the poem may be seen, in a deeply intermediary manner, as the surpassing and overcoming of Mickiewicz’s Konrad from Dziady, Part III.

The water content of the rivers is formed by atmospheric precipitation and underground waters. Influence of underground waters on water content of the rivers cannot be measured. It is shown that the volume of underground water exchange is underestimated and can be commensurable with a volume of atmospheric precipitation. Change of level of underground waters is defined by changes of volume of the geological environment during geodeformations. It is offered to consider geodeformations as one of the reasons of floods and droughts. Studied the changes the gravitational field and geodeformations during droughts and floods in the Amazon in 2005-2006. Studied the hydrological regime of the River Nile. Shows the influence of geodeformation on the level of Danube and Dniester. Proposed detailed study the causes of floods in Europe in 2002. Influence of the Earth’s surface deformation on floods and droughts is very important and requires special detailed study. Changes in volume of rocks during Earth’s surface deformation are accompanied by dilatancy which influence on the amount of drought and flooding has turned out to be significant. Study of the processes considered in the thesis gives grounds to expect that floods and droughts associated with deformations of the geological environment will be successfully predicted.

Opis:
The purpose of this study is to predict the contribution of the water table in moistening the root zone using theoretical and empirical equations containing the parameters of evapotranspiration, crop factor, and capillary rise in relation to the hydrophysical properties of soil. Five alluvial (clay) soil profiles located at middle Nile Delta were investigated for the application of the assumed equations. Four areas of soils were cultivated with wheat and clover in the winter and maize in the summer, and citrus trees in 2014/2015 growing season. Soil samples from the investigated areas were subjected to chemical and physical analyses. Water table depths were determined using field piezometers in the same places where the soil samples were collected. The other hydro-physical parameters were estimated. It was found that the water table contributed 20-40% of the irrigation water applied to the root zone in winter and 20% or less during the summer in the studied soils areas. An equation was derived to estimate the sorptivity (S) under dry conditions and at steady state infiltration. It was observed that S is decreased from unsaturated state to steady-state infiltration by 23.1 to 45.7% in cultivated soils and to 55.2% in uncultivated soil. Infiltration functions were estimated. It was suggested that the sorptivity at the steady infiltration rate (steady sorptivity, Sw) may be used to predict the hydraulic conductivity and the basic infiltration rate Ib. The calculated values of Ib by Sw corresponded to those obtained by infiltration experiment. This confirmed the significance of steady Sw as a new functional infiltration parameter. Also, data showed that the values of K(θ) calculated by the proposed equations were in the common ranges for such soils. The equations used (models) related K(θ) to soil pore radius (r) which were in turn based on soil hydraulic data including water retention h(θ), field basic infiltration rate, water sorptivity (S) and the distribution density function f(r) of soil pore size. The steady Sw parameter was used in the prediction of the hydraulic conductivity K(θ) and the basic (steady) infiltration rate Ib. It was concluded that in winter the water table contributed 20-40% of irrigation water applied to the root zone and less than 20% during the summer in the studied soils areas. These values should be considered in calculating the crop water requirements.

Opis:
Dynamically growing number of airline passengers and flights, especially intercontinental ones, is a key factor conducive to the spread of infectious diseases. The threat to public health may be even more noticeable if it is taken into account, that the developing countries record larger increase in air traffic than most European high developed states with good sanitary conditions. The aim of the study is to make a review of the literature concerning risk assessment and ways to prevent transmission of infectious diseases aboard civil aircrafts. Airline-associated spread of infectious diseases can refer to airborne and vector-borne diseases, as well as these transmitted by fecal-oral route. The particular danger of rapid spread of a disease through airline passengers is caused by influenza virus strains with the potential for causing pandemics or coronaviruses that are infectious agents of MERS and SARS. Passengers suffering from active tuberculosis are also a reason of a serious epidemiological concern. Also other airborne diseases like measles can be easily transmitted by air transport when travelling from endemic countries. On the other hand, flight-related food poisonings are less and less frequent – the most common cause are still bacteria of the Salmonella genus. Among vector-borne diseases, particular attention is paid to the problem of possible transfer of mosquitoes infected with West Nile Virus. In the prevention of the spread of communicable diseases via air transport, there are important factors such as: efficient identifying of sick travellers and crew members, use of personal protective equipment (such as masks with HEPA filter) by passengers travelling alongside sick person, efficient ventilation inside the passenger cabin, proper disinfection of aircrafts' interiors, vaccination of cabin crews against influenza and proper preparation and handling of catering provided to aircrafts.

Opis:
The impact of design flood in terms of water surface level and maximum velocity in a reach on the Nile River is studied, using a depth-averaged two-dimensional model. The reach includes a proposed site for a shipyard maintenance harbour. The CCHE2D model, a depth-averaged two-dimensional model, is selected to perform both the steady state computation, for calibration purposes, and flood routing through the reach to obtain maximum water surface level and velocity information. Manning's coefficient was obtained by matching the computed and measured water surface level in the reach under steady flow conditions. The computed results of velocity and water surface profiles agreed satisfactorily with the measured data. The verified model was then used to simulate a flood event within the same reach. Stage-discharge relationships for various sections within the reach were obtained. The peak water surface level at each section was compared with the flow stage under normal flow conditions. The peak stage was found to be well below the proposed elevation of the construction site. The estimation of the peak velocity and water surface level might be useful for bank protection work.

Opis:
The dynamic of soil moisture may be studied through water flux, storage, moisture conductivity and movement into the soil pore spaces. The volume of pore space in the soil and also the size, shape, type, continuity and distribution of the pores are important characteristics related to the storage, conductivity and movement of water and gases. The movement of water by gravitational forces in the natural soils occurs principally through the non-capillary pores (i.e. rapidly drained pores), while other movements occur in capillaries which may be classified as coarse and fine capillary pores. The unsaturated condition of soil water is a common state in nature after rainfall or as a result of irrigation, therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop equations to describe and estimate the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity K(θ) in relation to soil pore-size classes that contained the available water in the soil root zone. The equations were based on a water-retention curve, saturated hydraulic conductivity and pore-size function measured from undisturbed cores. The equations were applied to three soil profiles from the Nile Delta and compared with measured K(θ) data from two field experiments, which were conducted in clay in an unsaturated condition and in sandy soil areas using the internal drainage in situ method. The pore size function f(r) represents the fraction of the total pore whichvolume, which was contributed by pores with radii from 0 to ∞ at the prevailing degree of saturation. Data showed the applicability of the suggested equations for calculating unsaturated hydraulic conductivity in the soil pores even for soils with a high proportion of clay.

Opis:
Due to the high nutrient and organic matter contents of fish pond water, the water must be treated before disposal to prevent the eutrophication and deterioration of natural receiving waters. Floating wetlands (FTWs) and biofilters are environmentally friendly ecological treatments that can be used for this water. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the performance of FTWs with biofilters (FTW/Bs) for nutrient and organic compound removal. Two FTW/ Bs were applied in a pond with 5,000 Nile tilapia. The macrophyte species in the FTWs were Cyperus (Cyperus spp.) and Heliconia (Heliconia spp.). The buoyant mats of the FTWs were made from bamboo, and 200 bioballs were loaded below the mats. The water quality parameters in the pond were monitored for 5 weeks between the control test without the FTW/Bs and the experimental test with FTW/Bs at sites 1 (S1) to 8 (S8). The FTW/Bs were located at sites 2 (S2) and 3 (S3). The results showed reductions in all water quality parameters except orthophosphate (ortho-P) at S2 and S3. The COD, BOD, NH4-N, and SS at S2 and S3 parameters during the experimental test were significantly lower than those during the control test, in the ranges of 20.34–33.96, 25.47–29.41, 25.86–27.87, and 26.00–28.44%, respectively.

During the first three years of Vespasian’s reign, coins which depicted Nilus bust were minted in Alexandria. Some scholars relate these representations to the reported by Cassius Dio (LXVI 8, 1) sudden exceptional Nile flooding which took place after the emperor’s arrival in Alexandria. However, the dates of both events are disputable. It seems that Nilus bust on the coins is rather an expression of Roman emperors’ complying with requirements of the tradition which identified the monarch with the renewed Nile.

Introduction. Arthropod-borne viruses are important causes of human morbidity worldwide. However, the available literatur and the epidemiological data concerning the importation to Poland of globally emerging arboviral infections, such as DENV, CHIKV, WNV, or ZIKV, are scarce. Only few seroepidemiologic studies concerning WNV in animals or humans in Poland have been published. Objective. The aim of this review paper is to summarize and present the current state of knowledge and the perspectives for research concerning the importation and the risk posed by the introduction to Poland of the four above-mentioned arboviral diseases. Current state of knowledge. Climate change may facilitate the northward expansion of both the vectors for diseases previously unseen in Europe, as well as of the viruses themselves, resulting in autochthonous cases of diseases previously exclusively imported. Little is known about the importation of arboviral diseases to Poland because of the frequently asymptomatic or self-limiting course of the disease, lack of epidemiologic studies or effective disease reporting, as well as inadequate access to diagnostic methods. Conclusions. Further epidemiologic studies in Polish travellers are necessary in order to prevent importation or introduction of the above-mentioned viruses, and to act against potential problems related to blood transfusion or organ transplantation from infected donors.

A reversible effect of pH on the ionization of amino-acid residues at the active center of choline oxidase was observed near the optimum pH (8). Inactivation of choline oxidase took place in the pH ranges 3-6 and 9-11, in which irreversible changes in the structure occur leading to the enzyme inactivation. The first order rate constants of the enzyme's inactivation at various pH values were estimated for the irreversible changes. The Arrhenius analysis revealed no significant changes in the activation enthalpy, while an increase in the activation entropy reflected an increase in the conformational freedom.

Opis:
Using objectively analysed hydrographic data, currents have been calculated off the Egyptian Mediterranean coast at the surface and at 30, 50, 75, 100, 200 and 300 m depths for the four seasons. The surface circulation is dominated by an anticyclonic circulation off Salum Bay in winter, spring and summer. In nearshore areas, the current flows eastwards at the shallower levels but westwards at the deeper levels. Off the Nile Delta, the current is almost eastward with a higher velocity in summer and autumn, while in spring it is very weak. Off the area between Port Said and Rafah, there is a clear cyclonic circulation appearing in all seasons except winter. At 50 and 75 m depth, the velocity of the circulation is weak. At 100 m depth, the circulation that appeared between Matruh and Alamen in summer decreases in area and magnitude at the former depths. At 200 and 300 m in winter, the current velocity is quite low. In spring the current flows southwards off the area between Rafah and Port Said. In summer, the current off the area between Port Said and Rafah is quite strong and flows to the south. The situation in autumn is quite similar to that in summer, except in the eastern area, where the current is a westward one.

Opis:
The investigation of geology, stone implements and pottery presented below was performed in 2004 during works conducted by mixed american-egyptian mission at Heraconpolis archaeological site. The geological examination documents that the site was located on a dry, big delta of big wadi, coming from west into Nile Valley. This location means that while the site was functioning at phases Nagada II and III mentioned wadi did not conduct water i.e. climate was very dry. The investigation of present geological phenomena shows continuous growth of salinity of the soils at tested area. The investigation of stone implements discovered at two examined archaeological trenches confirmed the presence of various rocks, chipped flint implements as well as grinders. These objects were discovered at two depths representing various archaeological layers. Examination of pottery showed advanced technologies of preparation of ceramic mass as well as technology of firing. Data obtained from computer analyses confirm differentiation of tested ceramic masses.

Opis:
More than 200 beads and pendants were found in seven trash middens excavated at the 4th/5th to the 6th century AD settlement site in Shenshef in the Eastern Desert of Egypt. The site lies close to the Sudanese border and the Red Sea coast, and about 20 km to the southwest of the ancient port of Berenike. Although the purpose of the settlement has not been established, excavations provided a wide range of imports from the Mediterranean region and the Indian Ocean. An overview of the materials and manufacturing techniques applied in the production of the beads and pendants confirms the short- and long-distance contacts of Shenshef inhabitants. In addition to the many bead parallels that link the site with the Red Sea ports and the Nile Valley region up to the First Cataract, the presence of South Indian/Sri Lankan beads at Shenshef is especially meaningful. They may be proof of the intermediary role played by the Shenshef inhabitants in trading overseas imports into the Nubian Nile Valley region.

The research was carried out at the Laboratory of Aquaculture, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Universitas Padjadjaran for culture and observation of fish and at the Poultry Nutrition Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Padjadjaran University on the fermentation process and the manufacture of test feeding. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal percentage of Aspergillus niger fermented mangrove propagules meal in artificial feeding on the growth rate of nile tilapia. Tilapia fry used were 5-7 cm in size with an average weight of 4.97 ± 0.2 g. The study used a Completely Random Design (CRD) with five treatments and three repetition. Feeding is formulated on the percentage of fermented mangrove propagules meal use, that is 0; 2,5; 5; 7.5; and 10%. The main parameters observed were nutritional quality of fermented products, daily growth rate, feeding efficiency and survival. The data obtained were analyzed using F Test and continued with Duncan's Test if there were differences between treatments. The results showed that the addition of mangrove propagules fermented about 10% level. It gives results that there is no difference between the daily growth rate, feeding efficiency and survival whic is the same as those in tilapia. This is shows that mangrove propagulees can be used in fish feeding without causing negative effects on the growth of nile tilapia fry.

The study area is located in the North-Eastern part of the Nile Delta, northern of Ismailia canal and western Suez Canal. It comprises an area of about 3,058.8 km 2 (728,285.38 feddans). This work aims to identify the main physiographic units and its features, as well as emphasise the importance of combining soil taxonomy (2014) and WRB classification (2022) systems. Two main physiographic units were distinguished in the study area according to the previous studies, interpretation of satellite image and digital elevation model (DEM) as well as field observations; the first consists of fluvio-marine flats and the second river terraces which include the fluvial and deltaic origin. According to field morphological descriptions as well as chemical and physical analyses, representative profiles are classified by using both Soil Taxonomy and WRB systems. The current study is the third manuscript to emphasise the importance of using both systems together in order to obtain maximum possible characteristics of the earth. Below are examples that illustrate this importance. Soils of profile No. 4 which represent the fluvio-marine soils are classified according to soil taxonomy as follows: Typical Haplosalids, fine silty, mixed, thermic. While these soils are classified according to WRB as follows: Fluvic Sodic Solonchaks (Siltic/Loamy/Clayic, Chloridic, Evapocrustic, Ochric, Hypersalic). Soils of gypsiferous which represent soils of profile No. 6 are classified according to Soil Taxonomy as: Gypsic Aquisalids, loamy over sandy, mixed, thermic, whereas the application of the WRB system reveals the following: Fluvic Calcic Gypsic Sodic Gleyic Solonchaks (Loamic, Chloridic, Hypersalic).

Opis:
The Tell el-Retaba archaeological site is located in the middle part of Wadi Tumilat, which extends along the north-eastern margin of the Nile Delta. It contains fragments of fortified and domestic objects of the ancient fortress and other constructions built of mud bricks. The establishment and functioning of the fortress is dated at the times of the reign of two great pharaohs, Ramesses II and Ramesses III (13th and 12th centuries BC). The grain size composition of the sediments used for mud brick production had significant influence on their physical and mechanical properties, which was used by the ancient Egyptians for the improvement of bricks. The finest fractions, clay and silt, which generally comprise clay minerals and organic matter played a significant role. These components significantly influenced the mud brick properties and resulted in a structural cohesion of the material. The second important component of mud bricks were coarse fractions – sand and gravel. The source of material used for brick production were the natural sediments located in the vicinity of the fortress, i.e. the Holocene lake clay and the Pleistocene gravel and sand of the gezira formation, deposited by a braided river. Clay sediments have a variable lithology as can be deduced from grain size composition of mud bricks and their properties. This variability was caused by a variable regime of the Nile, which supplied material to the lake basin. Geological studies were used to recognize ancient environment and morphology of the area, and to find clay, sand and gravel open-pits that existed in the area. The fortress site was selected optimally in relation to the landscape morphology and close vicinity of the source of basic material and water used for mud brick production. The area around the fortress was substantially transformed by humans due to settlement.

Opis:
The article considers the theme stated in the title in three separate sections focusing on three regions that were ecclesiastically subordinate to the patriarchate of Alexandria, that is Egypt, Libya Inferior and Pentapolis, and Nubia and Ethiopia. Bishops in the first area, strictly controlled by the patriarch, travelled to Alexandria first to be ordained and later to attend synods called by the patriarch and to conduct routine business, for example requesting financial assistance, waiting for a dispute between hierarchs to be solved, or in the case of breaking the discipline by the bishops or members of the clergy subordinate to them. Churches of Nubia and Ethiopia, located farther afar, sought the patriarch’s attention almost exclusively in order to ordain bishops of the political centres of their states. The patriarch’s ability to directly interfere with the internal matters of these distant Churches was very limited. For each of the examined regions, the author seeks to establish the approximate time required to travel to Alexandria. This section of the paper is based on antique and early medieval sources as well as post-medieval and nineteenth-century travel records.

Opis:
The Nile River is the main route for inland navigation in Egypt. The vessels navigating through inland waterways generate complex physical forces that need to be studied extensively. Quantifying the effects of vessels sailing along a waterway is a complex problem because the river flow is unsteady and the river bathymetry is irregular. This paper aims to investigate the hydrodynamic effects resulting from the movement of vessels such as return currents around the vessel, the draw down of the water surface, under keel clearance, and the shear stress induced by vessels operating in the Nile River. Modeling such effects has been performed by applied the two-dimensional ADH (adaptive hydraulics) model to a river reach for different navigation channel operation scenarios. The obtained results show that the draw down heights, the water fluctuation, and the shear stress magnitude are larger when the river cross sectionals are narrow and the shallow water depths. These river sections are considered more disposed to bed erosion and it is morphologically unsafe. The section having the narrowest width and the lowest depth was associated with the largest drawdown percentages of 98.3% and 87.3% in one-way and two-way scenarios. While the section having the widest width and the largest depth was associated with the least drawdown percentages of 48.5% and 51.9% in one-way and two-way scenarios. The section having the narrowest width and the lowest depth was associated with the largest fluctuations of 22.0 cm and 41.9 cm in one-way and two-way scenarios. While the section having the widest width and the largest depth was associated with the least fluctuations of 0.6 cm and 1.8 cm in one-way and two-way scenarios. The section having the narrowest width and the lowest depth was the worst section for under keel clearance of 5.0 cm and 33.3 cm in one-way and two-way scenarios. While the section having the widest width and the largest depth was the best section, where its clearance values were 183.2 cm and 155.0 cm in one-way and two-way scenarios. It is concluded that a numerical model is a valuable tool for predicting and quantifying the hydrodynamic effects of vessels moving through a two-dimensional flow field and can be used to evaluate different scenarios that are difficult to measure in the field or a physical model. Also, it provides visualization products that help us understand the complicated forces produced by vessels moving in a navigation channel.

Opis:
Ortholinea africanus Abdel-Ghaffar et al., 2008 is re-described using light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to reveal the external ornamentation of the spores. Present spores matched the original description in morphology but were larger in all dimensions. They measured 9.6 ± 0.8 (8.1–10.9) μm in length, 9.5 ± 0.6 (8.8–10.9) μm in width and 8.9 ± 0.4 (8.6–9.1) μm in thickness. Polar capsules were 3.9 ± 0.3 (3.0–4.3) μm in length with polar filaments turned 4–6 turns. The pattern of polar filament coils was different in each of the polar capsules. In the same spore, one capsule contained oblique filament turns to the longitudinal axis of the capsule, while the other capsule contained perpendicular turns. SEM revealed completely different shell ridge patterns than those described by light microscopy in the original description. This emphasizes the necessity of SEM in the reliable description of any myxosporean genera with external shell ornamentation like Ortholinea and Chloromyxum. The present species is considered the first (purely) freshwater Ortholinea described from a proper freshwater host. Three different methods of isolation and preparation of coelozoic spores for SEM were evaluated. The best combination was using a syringe filter holder with a membrane filter of 5 μm pore nucleopore filters.

Opis:
In the introduction, the question of how deeply the fortifications are connected to the surrounding external context and how far analysis of this feature can provide answers on the fortifications themselves is raised. Our deliberations are based on the analysis of the fortifications at Abu Sideir (AS), Abu Mereikh (AM) B and C in the Fifth Nile Cataract region. Initially, it seems as though these sites share many characteristics: they are located in the same region, not too distant from each other. The location of the fortifications in both cases is on the bank of the Nile, not far from large wadi valleys, and many traces of settlement and examples of rock art have been recorded in the vicinity. In both cases the mouth of the wadi at the Nile River appears to be an important factor, holding deeper significance and symbolism for consecutive groups of people who either settled here or passed through. These were obviously areas of increased economic, cultural and military activity and this is where these similarities end, since upon closer analysis more significant differences were revealed. Themes presented in rock art differ considerably. Sites connected to nomad’s temporal settlements were recorded only in AS. Size and diversity in cemeteries also differentiates those areas. AS and AM are located roughly 13 miles apart on opposite banks of the river. Consideration should be given as to whether all the social groups in this region interpreted this distance in the same way. Settled farmers and fishermen who had boats may have had a different concept of this distance compared to the herders, for whom a river crossing together with the herd would mean a need of search for a ford or narrow point and the risk of losing animals. So whereas contact between nomads and people from the settlements may have been frequent, contact between the nomads from the Eastern desert and those from the Bayuda desert could have been rare. This may well be the cause of some of the differences registered.

Opis:
The archaeological site Tell el-Retaba in north-eastern Egypt, about 35 km to the west of Ismailia city, is located in the middle of Wadi Tumilat, a shallow valley running from the Nile Delta to the Bitter Lakes, along which flows the Suez Canal. In ancient times the valley was a route between Egypt and Syro-Palestine, strongly fortified in the New Kingdom times (16th–11th century BC). Mud bricks were analyzed from two parts of the Wall 1 (core of grey-brown bricks and inner extension of green bricks) in a fortress which existed during the Ramesses II times. Grain-size composition of the studied bricks was almost identical in both parts of the wall, suggesting the same source material for a production of brick. However, significant differences were observed in physical and mechanical properties (uni-axial compressive strength) in both types of bricks. Bricks from the core had lower bulk density, higher porosity and soak faster, whereas their resistance parameters were much lower than those of the bricks from the inner extension. The reason for such large differences in brick properties was a technology of their production, particularly proportion of components, water volume added during brick formation or density degree. Brick preparation and in consequence, physical-mechanical properties had direct influence on preservation of defensive structures during environmental changes related to changes of groundwater and surface water levels or of precipitation. Ancient Egyptians responsible for construction works in mud brick structures of the fortress must have had good knowledge and experience. This could be observed particularly for the heaviest and most important construction element that is the defensive wall, founded on well-densified deposits. It was also testified by higher resistance of green bricks from the inner extensions, which probably originated slightly later and were intended to reinforce a weaker core built of grey-brown bricks.

Grecki przymiotnik ποταμοφόρητος występuje w Piśmie Świętym tylko raz – w Ap 12, 15. Polski przekład Biblii Tysiąclecia zdanie celowe, w którym ποταμοφόρητος występuje, oddaje jako: „żeby ją rzeka poniosła”. G. Schneider, autor hasła ποταμοφόρητος w Exegetisches Wörterbuch zum Neuen Testament, proponuje korektę znaczenia tego słowa, koncentrując się na domniemanym celu porwania przez wodę, czyli spowodowaniu zatonięcia. Aby rozstrzygnąć zaistniały problem, podejmujemy w pierwszej kolejności studium etymologii terminu ποταμοφόρητος (pochodzi od rzeczownika ποταμός – „rzeka” i utworzonego od czasownika φορέω przymiotnika φορητός – „niesiony, dający się unieść”) oraz przegląd kompositów z przymiotnikiem φορητός (nie zawierały one idei śmiertelnego zagrożenia). Do przełomu XIX i XX wieku ποταμοφόρητος był poświadczony poza Biblią tylko w pochodzącym z przełomu V i VI wieku leksykonie Hezychiusza, który mógłby stanowić uzasadnienie propozycji G. Schneidera. Odkryte i opracowane na przełomie XIX i XX wieku papirusy egipskie, w których ποταμοφόρητος jest odnoszone do wylewów Nilu, pozwalają tę propozycję poddać w wątpliwość, lecz problemu nie rozstrzygają. Następne pole poszukiwań stanowią starożytne przekłady Apokalipsy (VL, Wg, syryjskie i koptyjskie), dostarczające poparcia to jednej, to drugiej możliwości, oraz łacińskie i greckie komentarze patrystyczne, w których uzasadnienie znajduje dotychczasowy polski przekład. Komentatorzy rzekę mającą porwać Niewiastę rozumieją jako obraz prześladowań Kościoła i chęć ich prowodyra, by Kościół sobie podporządkować. Jedna z wersji przekładu VL (typ I) zwraca poszukiwania w kierunku pierwowzoru, jakim była prawdopodobnie rzeka Nil. W świetle starożytnych opinii na temat przyczyn wylewów Nilu (wiatr od strony Morza Śródziemnego miał powodować, iż Nil zaczynał płynąć w górę swego biegu) oraz czytelnej wówczas paraleli Ez 29, 3. 6 można przypuszczać, że to właśnie ta rzeka była modelem dla autora Apokalipsy. Dane te na tle starożytnych przekładów i komentarzy pozwalają na potwierdzenie słuszności dotychczasowego polskiego tłumaczenia słowa ποταμοφόρητος.
The paper presents a study on translations of a Greek word ποταμοφόρητος occurring in Rev 12 : 15. The Greek hapax legomenon ποταμοφόρητος is used in Rev 12 : 15. The part of the sentence containing ποταμοφόρητος is translated as: to sweep her away with the current. G. Schneider suggests a correction of the meaning of the word, concentrating on the conjectural purpose of being taken by water (drowning). In order to analyse this issue we begin with the study of etymology of the ποταμοφόρητος. It comes from the noun ποταμός and the adjective φορητός, which is a derivative of φορέω. Composita (compounds) formed with φορητός did not refer to any idea of a mortal threat. Till the turn of 19th century ποταμοφόρητος, apart from the Bible, was only certified in the Hesychius’ Lexicon (5th or 6th century). The Egyptian papyri, uncovered and analysed on the turn of the 19th and the 20th century, in which the ποταμοφόρητος is related to the overflows of the Nile, let us doubt Schneider’s proposal, however, still do not solve the problem. The next stage of the research consisted of the analysis of the classical and antique translations of Rev (VL, Vg, Syriac and Coptic translations), as well as Latin and Greek patristic commentaries, which support one of the aforementioned interpretations. The commentators understood the river carrying the Woman as the image of Church persecution and a desire to place the Church under the command of evil forces. One of the versions of the translation of Vetus Latina (type I) suggests that the archetype of the water torrent in Rev was the Nile. In the light of classical explanations as to the reasons of the river’s floodings, as well as the parallel in Ezek 29 : 3. 6 we can assume that it was the Nile that served as the archetype of the spewing torrent for the author of the Revelation.

Opis:
The settlement remains surrounding the churches at the sites of Banganarti and Selib continued to be excavated in the 2015/2016 season by a team directed by Bogdan Żurawski. The research focused primarily on the living quarters around the churches and fortifications. An ethnographic survey carried out in Banganarti and Selib, and in the nearby villages documented traditional crafts, such as pottery making, basketry, baking and cooking using traditional techniques and recipes. Conservation and construction work were undertaken simultaneously with preparations for turning the Banganarti and Selib 1 sites into tourist attractions. Skeletal remains from earlier excavation were examined by a physical anthropologist. A survey combined with aerial documentation was carried out on selected archaeological sites in the Southern Dongola Reach (Soniyat, Diffar, Hettani, Bani Israil) and in the Third Cataract Region (Kissenfarki, Fagirinfenti). Short excavations were also conducted in the temple at Soniyat.

Opis:
Evapotranspiration represents one of the main parameters in the hydrological cycle. It is usually expressed by the term reference evapotranspiration (ETo) that is affected by certain meteorological parameters. This study aimed to find the difference amount in ETo between urban and suburban quarters in Karbala city. The study methodology involved selecting once urban area and four suburban quarters. Two methods of determining the reference evapo- transpiration were applied: first, a direct method which measured ETo at selected fields by using a hand-held device, and second, an indirect method using the Penman-Monteith equation. The findings showed that the magnitudes of ETo by the Penman-Monteith equation are higher than the values measured by the direct method for urban and suburban quarters. Moreover, it was found that the absolute percentage of difference in the average amount of ETo between urban and suburban quarters is 13% by using the direct method and 61% by using Penman-Monteith equation. The study conclusion is that suburban area has higher magnitude of ETo than urban quarter by using any of direct method and indirect method (Penman-Monteith equation).

Opis:
Substancje organiczne w stanowiskach zachowują się rzadko. Im starsze stanowiska tym mniej jest w nich substancji organicznych. Jedna z okoliczności sprzyjających jej zachowaniu jest spalenie bez dostępu powietrza, czyli zwęglenie. Badania tego typu materiału wymagają stosowania szeregu metod stosowanych m.in. w naukach mineralogicznych. Badania zwęglonych substancji ze stanowiska Tel el Fakha , które mają około 5 tyś. lat pozwoliły rozpoznać spaloną sieczkę zbożową, spalony chleb, dziegieć. spalone tkanki roślinne, spalone kości i ości ryb.
Organic substances are rarely well-preserved at excavation sites. The older the site, the less of organic substances there is. One of the conditions that favor their preservation is burning without air, i.e. charring. Studies of this type of material require implementing a number of methods used, among others, in mineralogical sciences. Such methods were used in this publication. Studies of charred substances from the Tel el Fakha site, which are about 5 thousand years old, allowed us to recognize: burnt chopped cereals, burnt bread, wood tar, burnt vegetable tissues, burnt bones and fish bones.

Opis:
During a survey of myxosporean parasites infecting freshwater fishes from the River Nile at Giza Governorates, Egypt between March and September 2016, nine out of 30 specimens of the Nile carp Labeo niloticus (Cyprinidae) were found to be naturally infected with Myxobolus naffari (Myxobolidae). Small macroscopic plasmodia appeared embedded in the host gill tissue accompanied with fusion of the gill epithelia, and atrophy was observed at the site of infection. The host reaction was manifested by the encapsulation of the plasmodia with a thick layer of connective tissue. The plasmodia appeared as white, elongated rods between gill filaments with an intensity ranging from three to eight cysts/fish. The average dimensions of plasmodia were 1.2–2.0 (1.8 ± 0.2) mm long × 0.4–0.7 (0.6 ± 0.2) mm wide. The spores were oval, reaching 9.56–11.2 (10.2 ± 0.2) μm long and 6.5–7.7 (7.0 ± 0.4) μm wide with two equal-sized polar capsules regularly arranged at the anterior pole of each spore. They were 4.51–5.5 (5.1 ± 0.4) μm in length and 1.5–2.0 (1.7 ± 0.2) μm in width. Histological, semi-thin sections were taken through parasite plasmodia and transmission electron microscopic examination of ultrathin sections was performed to describe the developmental stages of the recorded parasite within the host fish.

Opis:
The profile of microbial diversity in a NABR digesting RPMW was investigated using phylogenetic analysis of partial 16S rRNA sequences by a neighbor-joining-tree, supported by microbial morphology analysis by SEM. The results showed that microorganism inside NABR consisted of dominant Bacillus (25 strains) and Bacterium (1 strain) which were isolated from the settled sludge at the bottom of the reactor, whilst Bacillus (2 strains), Pseudomonas (2 strain) and Chryseobacterium (2 strain) were isolated from the biofilm formed on the packing material. It revealed that the microbial community strains, function, and structure changed simultaneously throughout the reactor system. The microscopic results showed rich biofacies, while the dominant microorganisms have various morphologies in every compartment of the system. It consisted of a long rod-shaped and filamentous bacterium composed majorly of bacilli of different sizes. Although the study successfully analyzed the microbial diversity and morphology in the system, the microbial communities reported in this study were different from other similar studies. This may be caused by the application of a culture-based technique that usually provides limited information due to the number of barely cultivated or uncultured strains.

Opis:
Since the discovery of the substantial corpus of Manichaean writings, especially the Kephalaia (editio princeps Polotsky-Böhlig, 1934-1940), the Cologne Mani Codex (= CMC), and the hitherto incompletely published library from Dachla (Ian Gardner, 2000), there can be no doubt as to the activities of the missionaries of the great Persian gnostic Mani in the Southern Nile Valley and Red Sea regions. This fact not only confirms the views of J. Helderman “that the Manichaean missionaries entered Egypt from the South-East, i.e. initially to Upper Egypt” (‘Manichäische Züge im Thomasevangelium’, 483f., note 42), but also the historical observations concerning the origins and development of monasticism. The latter was not without Manichaean influence, not merely in Egypt, but also in Nubia and Ethiopia. A mosaic, seemingly depicting Mani (from the collection of Elie Borowski), testifies to the pictorial needs of the Manichaeans as do the mural paintings from Pachoras/Faras depicting the likeness of Onophrios. These demonstrate the popularity of the crinite ascetic”, a figure also found in the CMC. It is imperative to recall the decisive importance of the southern kingdoms along the Red Sea during the Axial Age (Karl Jaspers), in order to kindle historical awareness in Europe of this currently overlooked region on the eve of its islamicisation – something which for decades I have noted the importance of in numerous publications (cf. foot-note 40). Here, local Christianity (viewed anachronistically) was marked by a heretical-gnostic diversity from the very beginning, which in turn weakened the spread of Christian teaching in the region. Islam was initially seen here by some as a Christian heresy (as pointed out by A. v. Harnack) and which even became accepted (e.g. in Ethiopia or Nubia, as noted by H. Jansen, Muhammed [German ed.: Münich 2008], 141). Thus, the local doctrinal pluriformity of Christianity during the jāhiliyya prepared the way for the later Islamic expansion. Manichaeism belongs unequivocally to the “periphery cultures of the Christian world” (Pogranicza chrześcijaństwa) as well as constituting a part of expanding Christianity in the Late Antique world. Manichaeism still holds many secrets, but at the same time their answers, as illustrated by this article. Hence, the gnostic element of Early Christianity is worthy of continued intensive study, something which unfortunately in Poland is still quite inadequate.

Opis:
On the discovery of gold reserves in 14 states in Sudan, traditional gold mining suddenly started to flourish and hundreds of thousands of laymen became engaged in gold extraction. The new source of revenue generation added much to the empty treasury and the loss in petroleum revenue due to cessation of the south in 2011 could thus be compensated. Since gold extraction by artisanal and small-scale gold mining does not require much finance or advanced technology, it suited unskilled workers and many young people found their way into the new business. Although gold extraction generates high revenues, the use of mercury in gold extraction poses much threat to the environment and general health of miners and the surrounding areas. The research tries to investigate the effects of traditional gold mining in Alebedia area, Berber Locality in the River Nile State. The investigation includes A/ the effects of extraction methods on the environment and general health. B/ the level of education and its distribution within the miners and how it affected the awareness of the miners about the dangers of mining activities. C/ the period of stay that miners spend in the mining area its contribution on the awareness about the dangers and diseases inflicted on the miners, D/ the effects of traditional gold mining activities on natural environmental impacts and E/ the effects of the meteorological and topographical factors, the distribution and concentration of mercury in the area and their effects on the environment and general health. The research adopted the techniques of using random sampling and quantitative qualitative in addition to the analytical techniques. The research finally concluded that traditional gold mining has positive effects on the economic side and negative effects on the environment and general health.

Opis:
West Nile virus (WNV), the etiologic agent of West Nile Fever (WNF), an emerging infectious disease that lately has been rapidly extending its range of occurrence from Africa to Middle East, and to Asia and Southern Europe. In Europe, cases of isolating WNV from mosquitoes representing four genera have been reported from Romania, Portugal, France, southern Russia and what is the most important, from Poland’s neighbouring countries as the Czech Republic, Slovakia and southern Ukraine. These data, as well as human and equine cases in the Czech Republic and Belarus, support hypothesis that WNV has already been present also in Poland, the more so, specific antibodies were detected in the sera of birds collected at the Kampinos and Bialowieza Primeval Forests and in human from the vicinity of Bialystok. Mosquitoes were collected in 2004–2009 at indoor and outdoor collection sites in districts: Kujawsko-Pomorskie, Mazowieckie, Podlaskie and Warmińsko-Mazurskie. In total 15400 female mosquitoes were collected in the cow sheds and overwintering in the cellars, and from human bait and CO2 traps. Mosquitoes were sorted by the collecting site, species and sex, and placed in pools of not in more than 50 specimens in special mixture of phenol and chaotropic salts and frozen in –20°C. Altogether, 15400 females were examined. Total RNA were extracted according to protocol of A&A Biotechnology. RT reaction was performed with random primers and 217-nucleotide fragment from the NS5 coding sequence was amplified by heminested PCR. PCR products were analysed on 1.5% agarose gel. The predominant species was Culex pipiens, accounting for over 42% of total insects collection. All obtained results were negative. Further investigations are needed.

Opis:
Za punkt odniesienia dla refleksji posłużyła pierwsza monografia o św. Nile Sorskim Aleksandra Archangielskiego, wydana w Sankt Petersburgu w 1882 r. Przypisanie przez rosyjskiego filologa (wybitnego znawcę piśmiennictwa Moskiewskiej Rusi) rozdziałowi V Reguły, dotyczącemu ośmiu głównych namiętności, znaczenia centralnej części utworu ma wpływ na określoną interpretację sensu traktatu oraz prowadzi do hipotezy o bezpośrednim wpływie św. Jana Kasjana Rzymskiego na staroruskiego hezychastę. W artykule natomiast prezentowana jest teza o tym, że najważniejszy tekst sorskiego pustelnika opisuje strategię duchową, w której nauka o namiętnościach i walce z nimi spełnia rolę ogniwa podstawowego Łańcucha Strategii Hezychazmu, odzwierciedlającego proces duchowy, wiodący ku theosis. Wobec konstatacji braku bezpośrednich odwołań autora Reguły skitu do protoplasty zachodniego monastycyzmu z IV-V w. jako główne źródło literackie wskazani zostali na pierwszym miejscu dwaj święci Ojcowie należący do synajsko-syryjskiej formacji hezychazmu: Jan Klimak i Izaak Syryjczyk. Ich imiona pojawiają się w 11 rozdziałach „Z pism Świętych Ojców o działaniu umysłu” po 24 razy. W następnej kolejności występuje przedstawiciel athosko-synaickiego nurtu – św. Grzegorz Synaita (16 razy) oraz św. Symeon Nowy Teolog (przywołany 12 razy), reprezentant areopagitycko-konstantynopolitańskiej formacji hezychamu bizantyńskiego. Cкитский устав по отношению к святоотеческой византийской традиции (135 года после первой монографии о преп. Ниле Сорском) Отправной точкой для рассуждений послужила первая монография об основателе Сорской пустыни Александра Семеновича Архангельского (издана в Санкт-Петербурге в 1882 г.) Поставление русским филологом, знатоком письменности Московской Руси, пятой главы Скитского устава, относящейся к 8 главным страстям («помыслам злобы»), в качестве центральной части произведения – влияет на определенную интерпретацию всего трактата и ведет к гипотезе о непосредственном влиянии преп. Иоанна Кассиана Римлянина на творчество древнерусского исихаста. В статье, однако, был выдвинут тезис о том, что самое значительное творение Сорского отшельника описывает духовную стратегию, в которой учение о страстях и борьбе с ними выступает здесь в качестве звена основной Цепи Стратегии Исихазма, воспроизводящей этапы духовного процесса, ведущего к обожению. Вследствие осознания отсутствия непосредственных ссылок автора Скитского устава на основоположника западного монашества IV-V в. – в виде главного литературного источника были названы в первую очередь два Святых Отца, принадлежащих к синайско-сирийскому направлению исихазма: преподобные Иоанн Лествичник и Исаак Сирин. Их имена появляются в 11 главах «Отъ писанiй святыхъ отецъ о мысленом дѣланiи» – 24 раза каждое. В следующем порядке выступает представитель афонско-синаитского течения – преп. Григорий Синаит (16 раз), а также преп. Симеон Новый Богослов (12 ссылок на его имя), принадлежащий к ареопагитико-константинопольскому направлению византийского исихазма.
The first monography about St. Nil Sorsky by Alexander Arhangelskii published in St. Petersburg in 1882 served as a point of reference for the reflection. The Russian philologist (a specialist in the field of Moscovite Rus’ literature) assigned to the 5th chapter of the Hermitage Rule about 8 main passions, the role of the central part of the work has an impact on a specific interpretation of the meaning of the treaty and leads to the hypothesis of a direct impact of St. John Cassian the Roman on the Old Russian Hesychast. However, in the article the thesis is proposed that the most important text of Sorsky hermit describes the spiritual strategy in which the doctrine of the passions and fight with them serves as a link of the Strategic Chain of Hesychasm, which reflects the spiritual process leading to the theosis. In view of the finding of the lack of direct references by the author of the Hermitage Rule to the Progenitor of Western monasticism of 4th-5th century – as a source of quotations and references in the first place two Holy Fathers who belong to the Sinai-Syrian formation of Hesychasm were mentioned: John Climacus and Isaac the Syrian whose names appear in the Rule 24 times each. In the next the Athos-Sinai mainstream – St. Gregory of Sinai (16 times) and St. Symeon the New Theologian (appointed 12 times), a representative of the Areopagitic-Constantinople formation of Byzantine Hesychasm, are referred to.

Opis:
The Polish archaeological project excavating at the Nubian sites of Banganarti and Selib concentrated on uncovering domestic architecture: the northeastern and southwestern districts at medieval Christian Banganarti and selected houses of Meroitic date at Selib 2. The conservation and restoration program put the finishing touches on the Raphaelion church in Banganarti and did substantial work on the remains of the earlier churches. The oldest church from Selib 1 was investigated and dated to the 6th–7th century based on a study of a well stratified ceramic assemblage. Pottery from the northern and southern refuse dumps ranged in date from the 9th to the 12th/13th century. A group of liturgical vessels, containing mostly small juglets and chalices, was distinguished in this assemblage. Exploration of the earlier Northern Building revealed pottery contemporaneous with the earliest phase of the church on site. Anthropological research was carried out on skeletal remains from the medieval cemeteries of Selib 1 and from individual graves at Banganarti. The results of ceramic studies and of the anthropological examination are reported in separate appendices to the main report.

Drought is an extreme event that causes great economic and environmental damage. The main objective of this study is to evaluate sensitivity, characterization and propagation of drought in the Upper Blue Nile. Drought indices: standardized precipitation index (SPI) and the recently developed standardized reconnaissance drought index (RDIst) are applied for five weather stations from 1980 to 2015 to evaluate RDIst applicability in the Upper Blue Nile. From our analysis both SPI and RDIst applied for 3-, 6-, 12 month of time scales follow the same trend, but in some time steps the RDIst varies with smaller amplitude than SPI. The severity and longer duration of drought compared with others periods of meteorological drought is found in the years 1984, 2002, 2009, 2015 including five weather stations and entire Upper Blue Nile. For drought relationships the correlation analysis is made across the time scales to evaluate the relationship between meteorological drought (SPI), soil moisture drought (SMI), and hydrological drought (SRI). We found that the correlation between three indices (SPI, SMI and SRI) at different time scales the 24-month time scale is dominant and are given by 0.82, 0.63 and 0.56.
Susza jest ekstremalnym zjawiskiem, które powoduje ogromne straty ekonomiczne i szkody środowiskowe. Celem badań było określenie wrażliwości na suszę, charakterystyk i propagacji suszy w regionie górnego Nilu Błękitnego. Dwa wskaźniki suszy – wskaźnik standaryzowanego opadu (SPI) i niedawno opracowany wskaźnik RDIst (ang. standardized reconnaissance drought index) zastosowano do danych z pięciu stacji meteorologicznych z lat 1980 do 2015, aby ocenić przydatność tego drugiego do oceny sytuacji w regionie. Z analiz przeprowadzonych przez autorów niniejszej publikacji wynika, że oba wskaźniki wykazywały podobny trend zmian w przedziałach czasowych 3-, 6- i 12-miesięcznych, ale w pewnych okresach wskaźnik RDIst cechowała mniejsza amplituda zmian niż wskaźnik SPI. W odniesieniu do pięciu stacji meteorologicznych i całego obszaru górnego biegu Nilu Błękitnego najbardziej surowe i długotrwałe susze stwierdzono w latach 1984, 2002, 2009 i 2015 w porównaniu z innymi latami badań. Wykonano także analizę korelacji między wskaźnikami suszy meteorologicznej SPI, suszy glebowej SMI i suszy hydrologicznej SRI. Najsilniejszą korelację między tymi wskaźnikami stwierdzono dla 24-miesięcznych przedziałów czasowych, a odpowiednie współczynniki korelacji wynosiły 0,82, 0,63 i 0,56.

Opis:
Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom bread moulds belong to the type of vessels on which potmarks appear the most often, which is a phenomenon recorded during works conducted at different sites. Excavations carried out at the Tell el-Murra between 2011 and 2019 produced a significant number of vessels of this type with various marks. This paper is devoted to the 118 pre-firing marks from Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom bread moulds from the settlement layers at the Tell el-Murra. The paper comparatively analyses marks from two subsequent chronological periods, with the aim to test the validity of theories regarding their function and meaning, based on examples from Tell el-Murra. The study concludes that the high frequency of potmarks on bread forms was not accidental, but related to certain economic processes and changes, as also indicated in this paper.
