正01"I am 24 years old this year and have two kids. The company I work for produces grape wine, and I myself work in the production department. I'm on the job seven hours a day, and I already have five years of experience. I come from this village, so unlike many of my colleagues who live in communal factory-provided dorms, I can go home every day to be with my family. It's really great

Abstract

This paper examines the British Museum unpublished records related to an Early Bronze (EB) Age pithos burial uncovered a century ago in the Inner Town at Carchemish. The grave, cursorily cited and variously dated (Chalcolithic, EB or even LBA) in the final reports, was described in some detail by Hogarth and Thompson; a precise dating is, however, possible today thanks to the information of paramount importance given by T. E. Lawrence who identified and took a picture of the associated finds, which was recently rediscovered in the Carchemish Archives. The pithos can be now ascribed to the third quarter of the third millennium BC and helps to confirm the recent theory according to which the Inner Town of Carchemish, with its massive earthen rampart, had already developed at the time of the second urbanisation in Syria and upper Mesopotamia.     

允许狩猎的保护区——赛卢斯

早在1896年,德皇威廉二世就将鲁菲济沿岸直到基萨基区的土地命名为“狩猎保护地”,成立了非洲大陆第一个自然保护区.一战结束后,英国取代德国接管了坦噶尼克大陆(坦桑尼亚联合共和国前身).1922年,英国当局将鲁菲济河沿岸4个保护区命名为“赛卢斯保护区”. 之所以命名为赛卢斯,是为了纪念被前美国总统西奥多·罗斯福称赞为“世界上最优秀的狩猎家”的英国人赛卢斯.他不仅是一位猎人、探险家,也是一位自然保护主义者、博物学家、战士和作家.
