Extractions: FEBRUARY 2005. The oldest Homo sapiens is reliably dated at 195,000 years ago (page 289). NOVEMBER 2004. Running as the major breakthrough that marks the appearance of Homo. The oldest Homo sapiens is reliably dated at 195,000 years ago (page 289). This changes only one paragraph. By dating a "modern" skull (Omo 1) at 195,000 BP, the origin of the modern sapiens body (especially the skull) is pushed back even further before any evidence of "modern" human behavior. It begins to look as if these ancient sapiens were quite variable (they would include idaltu ), which is interesting but not surprising. Running as the major breakthrough that marks the appearance of Homo. The paper is Bramble, D. M., and D. E. Lieberman. 2004. Endurance running and the evolution of Homo. Nature 432: 345-352.

http://www.news.uiuc.edu/news/04/0216anthro.html

Extractions: Hlusko organized a Monday symposium on human evolution at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. She brought together experts who study phylogenetics, ancient DNA, developmental genetics, quantitative genetics and primate evolution so that they could share the same stage to discuss their current work, and where they may be able to go on together in an effort to understand the evolution of our ancestors. The session was discussed Sunday at a news briefing. "Data from developmental genetics and biomedicine, coupled with advances in computer technology, now provide us with a wealth of new information from which to better understand the genetic and non-genetic influences underlying primate, including human, evolution," Hlusko said in an interview. "By combining these different data sets with the fossil record, we don’t have to be just paleontologists, or just geneticists. Because selection operates on the genome through our anatomies, it makes better sense to conduct our research with a similarly integrative approach. Recent advances in genetics have now made this method more feasible for primate studies. "

A description of the recipients' work follows. IHSAN ABBAS Doctor of Humane Letters Abbas, professor emeritus at the American University of Beirut, is considered the premier figure of this century in the field of Arabic and Islamic studies both in the East and in the West. His work includes the seminal contribution to the founding principles of the modern edited Arabic text and groundbreaking work on the Arabic literary legacy of Muslim Spain. Abbas is also known for his internationally acclaimed theoretical and applied works on Arabic literary criticism and for his translations of works of literature particularly American literature which have set new standards for translation into Arabic. Abbas has written, edited and translated close to 70 books and over 80 articles, displaying a wide range of expertise not only in Arabic literature but also in history, geography, political thought, law, science, civilization and religion. He is currently editor of the Encyclopaedia of Islamic Civilization. His open-minded approach to scholarship is part of his call for cooperation between Arabs, Muslims and Western Orientalists for the uncovering of the humanistic contribution of Islamic civilization to world civilization over the centuries.

Extractions: The Geology of South Africa Travel Earth History with Geo-Expeditions Geological Map of South Africa South African Geology and Palaeontology Introduction to Geology South Africa is a unique geological and palaeontological destination, providing an overview of 3.5 billion years of earth history and the evolution of life which cannot be studied in such completeness anywhere else in the world. South Africa not only hosts some of the oldest rocks in the world, source of South Africa’s great mineral wealth, but also some of the oldest known fossils. The famous Bushveld Complex, the earth’s largest ore deposit, hosts the largest platinum, chromium and vanadium deposits in the world. In the context of the history of gold mining in Southern Africa, there are the numerous gold rush towns of Johannesburg, Pilgrim’s Rest and Barberton in the north and Millwood in the south to be visited. Also famous is the Premier diamond mine, where the famed 3106 carat "Cullinan" diamond, the largest ever found, was discovered and later incorporated into the British Crown Jewels. There is also ample evidence of ice ages occurring throughout earth history as well as of continental drift and the break-up of the ancient continent of Gondwana to form continents as we know them today.

Extractions: The Institute for the Paleontology and Geology of the Quarternary Period was founded in 1954. It is the only institution in Croatia that focuses on systematic geologic and paleontologic study of the Quarternary period with the aim of reconstructing changes in the climate, vegetation, fauna, and the evolution of hominids. The institute's collections, which are a result of years of field research, include pieces from Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic cultures, fossile vertebrates, and world-famous finds of hominids such as the Neanderthal men from the Vindija cave and anatomically modern people from Velika peæina, Veternica, Bezdanjaèa and Vuèedol. The richness and diversity of the collections and the institute library provide ample reasons for collaboration with other related institutions at home and abroad. The activities of the Institute also include systematic information processing, education, and popularization of geoscience.
