Stratigraphy, a branch of geology, is the science of describing the vertical and lateral relationships of different rock formations formed through time to understand the earth history. These relationships may be based on lithologic properties (named lithostratigraphy), fossil content (labeled biostratigraphy), magneti…

Abstract This paper explores the production of Late to Terminal Classic Ulua marble vases (ca. 600/650–800/850a.d.), the hallmark luxury good from the lower Ulua Valley of northwestern Honduras. Unlike other areas of the greater Maya world, no one center appears to have held political sway in the valley. Yet marble-va…

The usual ideas about the Cenozoic stratigraphy of El Bierzo Basin are reconsidered in this article, putting up a new chronoestratigraphic interpretation of Las Medulas Formation. The Unit is considered as fluvial in origin and Palaeogene in age, and, according to that estimated age, the geomorphologie evolution of El…

Developable surfaces are defined to be locally isometric to a plane. These surfaces can be formed by bending thin flat sheets of material, which makes them an active research topic in computer graphics, computer aided design, computational origami and manufacturing architecture. We obtain condition for developable and…

The adaptive radiation of hipparionins after their Old World dispersal was linked with a trend towards smaller body sizes. The appearance of the small-sized forms has usually been associated to open environments and grazing diets. A recent approach, moreover, highlights the role of life history modifications related t…
