Re: [meteorite-list] Heidelbergensis-Zhamanshin dates
Hi, E.P., List, EP Wrote: > Right now, I feel like the book is going > to do very well, right after it kills me. For writers, poets, painters, and the like, to use an elegant phrase coined by the late Dylan Thomas: "Death is like the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval for us..." He made the remark in a New York interview and I'm pretty sure he was drunk on his ass when he said it (well, OK, that was most of the time). I mean, the late Dylan Thomas would know, wouldn't he? I would think so. Moving right along, Mr. Heidelbergensis is a species that has often been proposed for the dubious honor of "being submerged," or "sunk," as some toxonomists call it, meaning that there is considerable doubt that Mr. H. is worthy of being set up as a unique and individual species of the genus homo all on his own. Of course, most of the doubters of Mr. H. live a lot further away from Heidelberg than Andi does! There is a homo sapies process going on here. Say you are a homo sapiens paleoanthropologist and you find an archaic homo who is not a sap. Are you going to look like more of a hot shot if your new homo specimen is a unique species or just another archaic man? Well, naturally, there is more prestige in a discovering a unique species than saying "I found another archaic hominid, nothing special"? So, every digger claims his group of specimens as a SPECIES. Some toxonomists (the ones who dig and find mostly) are SPLITTERS (as they're called) and some toxonomists (the ones that sit home and synthesize) are LUMPERS. If you left taxonomy to field workers, we'd end with North New Jersey Man and South New Jersey Man as separate species... and some guy that claims Central New Jersey Man is a separate species! The books are littered with specious species that likely only exist in the brains of their "discoverers." There are even cases of groups of individuals that are found together in one location in "family" groups that are so radically different that other diggers say they're two species while their discoverer says they're one very dimorphic species... Never ask a Man to study Man -- we're too close to the problems. Now, I'm not saying Mr. H. is not his own "Man," but this sort of thing is a major problem in the field. I take no stand on Mr. H. and his family relations. Cousin H. can have Thanksgiving Dinner with me, just like one of the family... Personally, I believe that archaic man, like modern man, was one continuously variable, inter-breeding species. In Modern Man, 85 percent of all human genetic variation exists within human populations, whereas about only 15 percent of variation exists between populations. I think if we had genes for the archaics, we'd find the same sort of thing, great variety despite being essentially a single genetic branching pool. That's my heresy, and I'm sticking to it.

[meteorite-list] AD: thin Muong Nong Tektite slices
Hello everyone, Don't know why, but I don't see many tektite slices for sale for study. I suspect it's because a) nobody else is interested :-) and b) splash forms tend to self-destruct if you try to cut them. I cut some slices off a small Muong Nong (layered) tektite and thought I'd toss them out to see if anyone else is interested. I posted some pictures here: http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c57/pkmorgan/MuongNong/ Didn't invest much time and the photos aren't great but will hopefully suffice. I borrowed a light box my wife has for crafts and it's not very bright. You will find pictures of: a set of ultra thin pieces, three thicker pieces (pic is mostly for size reference), one of the thicker pieces backlit with a small mag-light flashlight, and a comparison of the thicknesses I was surprised how opaque this stuff really is - at least compared to a splahsform that I cut once. The ultra-thin ones are straight off the saw. I will polish the saw marks out of the thicker pieces but don't have the equipment to truly polish them. Not sure how to price them since the material isn't very expensive, but they weren't easy to cut (at least on my simple setup) so figure that the cost is mostly for my effort. How about this: Thin slices: $15 for the ultra-thin full slice (top left) $7.50 each for the three mid-size pieces $5 each for the two small micros (bottom right) Thicker slices $10 each for the full slices And add $3 for packing and shipping.

Re: [meteorite-list] AD. Japan Meteorite Falls/Finds/Hammerspageupdated with more than 50 links
Hi, Rob, Dirk, List The date May 19, 861 in the Julian calendar is May 25, 861 in the Gregorian calendar. The problem is that in 861, there is NO Gregorian calendar! So, roughly speaking, it is more accurate to say that the date given for the fall is in the same day-slot of the seasonal year as the May 25 is today, relative to the solstices or the perihelion of the Earth's orbit (+/- 1 day). But there is another coincidence worth noting. As Dirk points out, the box housing the meteorite and the script in which the date recorded is younger than the year 861 (of later date). The Japanese calendrical date given as the fall date April 8th. That is the traditional day in Japan to celebrate the birth of the Buddha and is a local festival date (Hana-matsuri or Kanbutsu-e). In China, the Birth of the Buddha is celebrated on the 8th day of the 4th month (=April 8) of the Chinese lunar calendar, a date which in the Western calendar varies from May 6 to 26, and lands on May 25 (the fall date in the Western calendar) more than any other. (Lunar calendars oscillate back and forth over the solar calendar in a 13 year cycle.) Further west, the date is moved one week later to the 15th day, 4th month of the lunar year (April 15) to coincide with the Full Moon, which conveniently always falls in the middle of a lunar "moon-th." In many other regions, Buddha's Birthday is whenever the Full Moon lands in the May of the Western calendar. Given the fact that the assignment of the date is not contemporary with the fall and that the date has other significances, it may be that the assigned date is just that: assigned at a later time for reasons of "appropriateness." (A polite way of saying the DATE of the year may be made up.) It is much more likely that the YEAR is totally accurate. This is usually the case with ancient records, that they are accumulated as "annals," "yearbook," and so forth, as they have for millennia. It's still a heck of long time to take good care of a meteorite! Sterling - - Original Message - From: "Rob Wesel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Sterling K.

Japan Meteorite Falls/Finds/Hammerspageupdated with more than 50 links Hi, Rob, List, You couldn't have found a nicer mess to land in: calendars! Simple answers first: if a source specifies "Julian calendar" for the date of an event, it almost certainly means the event's date in the Julian calendar system, proposed and enforced by Augustus, Julius Caesar's adopted son and first Emperor of Rome. By the time Pope Gregory XIII decided the calendarical slide had gone far enough, the Julian calendar of 1700 and the astronomical calendar were 11 days apart, by the 1800's when Protestant Europe adopted the "Gregorian" calendar, it was 12 days off. By 1917, when revolutionary Russians changed their calendars, it was 13 days. The Julian lags by one day every 143 years (since Year 1 AD). So, an event in 861 is off (behind) by about 6.021 days, or in practical terms 6 days. But it's messier than that. For example, when does a year begin? Jan. 1? No, not for most of the past two millennia. Do climate scientists who evaluate temperature records from the past centuries for proof of global warming actually know what day of the year is meant in the records? (The answer to that one is no.) Were calendars, at a given time, the same in all countries? No. JULIAN CALENDAR The Roman calendar began the year on 1 January, and this remained the start of the year after the Julian reform. However, even after local calendars were aligned to the Julian calendar, they started the new year on different dates. The Alexandrian calendar in Egypt started on 29 August (30 August after an Alexandrian leap year). Several local provincial calendars were aligned to start on the birthday of Augustus, 23 September. The indiction caused the Byzantine year, which used the Julian calendar, to begin on 1 September; this date is still used in the Eastern Orthodox Church for the beginning of the liturgical year. When the Julian calendar was adopted in Russia in AD 988 by Vladimir I of Kiev, the year was numbered Anno Mundi 6496, beginning on 1 March, six months after the start of the Byzantine Anno Mundi year with the same number. In 1492 (AM 7000), Ivan III, according to church tradition, realigned the start of the year to 1 September, so that AM 7000 only lasted for six months in Russia, from 1 March to 31 August 1492. During the Middle Ages 1 January retained the name New Year's Day (or an equivalent name) in all Western European countries (affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church), since the medieval calendar continued to display the months from January to December (in twelve columns containing 28 to 31 days each), just as the Romans had. However, most of those countries began their numbered year on 25 December (the Nativity of Jesus), 25 March (the Incarnation of Jesus), or even Easter, as in France. In England before 1752, 1 January was celebrated as the New Year festival, but the "year starting 25th March was called the Civil or Legal Year, although the phrase Old Style was more commonly used." To reduce misunderstandings on the date, it was not uncommon in parish registers for a new year heading after 24 March for example 1661 had another heading at the end of the following December indicating "1661/62". This was to explain to the reader that the year was 1661 Old Style and 1662 New Style. Most Western European countries shifted the first day of their numbered year to 1 January while they were still using the Julian calendar, before they adopted the Gregorian calendar, many during the sixteenth century. The following table shows the years in which various countries adopted 1 January as the start of the year. Eastern European countries, with populations showing allegiance to the Orthodox Church, began the year on 1 September from about 988. Note that as a consequence of change of New Year, 1 January 1751 to 24 March 1751 are non-existent dates in England. The Julian calendar was in general use in Europe and Northern Africa from the times of the Roman Empire until 1582, when Pope Gregory XIII promulgated the Gregorian Calendar. Reform was required because too many leap days are added with respect to the astronomical seasons on the Julian scheme.

As a result, the calculated date of Easter gradually moved out of phase with the moon. Wh

Hello List, Michael: " If you don't include the link in your post no one will go there" Bob: "Here's the link. Steve, it would be a good idea to post a link" http://chicagometeorites.net/id53.html Well, it is there - at least indirectly, ... in the address attachment: => Chicagometeorites.net <= Steve, ... as for your Mali specimens, I must admit that the second individual (519 grams) is a real feast for the eye - beautiful shape, excellent fusion crust! But, as so often before, I am not quite sure if we are looking at a Bassikounou individual or whether this is a piece of the Mali fall. Anyway, no matter what it is, it's a beautiful individual with gorgeous crust!
