incavation

Instead, what is incavated is archaeological evidence in itself, and incavations are thus about the very possibility of archaeology.

2004, Neil Brodie, Catherine Hills, Material Engagements: Studies in Honour of Colin Renfrew, page 48:

During this incavation, eight contemporary and mundane domestic assemblages were buried in the garden of a Berlin townhouse. In undertaking this 'incavation', Holtorf made a powerful statement about archaeology as a performance and a particular form of material engagement with the past.

2010, Rodney Harrison, John Schofield, After Modernity: Archaeological Approaches to the Contemporary Past, page 116:

To revert to my earlier imagery, while conventional archaeological excavations aim to methodically purify what its practitioners conceive of as a target signal from a specific past, by amplifying it over and above the temporal pile-up of object noise that surrounds it, Afro-Cuban ritual 'incavations', if I may call them that, proceed no less methodically in scrambling the frequencies of space and time upon which disciplined historicist archaeological praxis depends.

2013 April, Stephan Palmié, “Signal and Noise: Digging up the Dead in Archaeology and Afro-Cuban Palo Monte”, in Archaeological Review from Cambridge, volume 28, number 1, page 127:

(archaeology) An act of earthing artifacts; the burial or entombment of archaeologically interesting items.

(history, singular only) The enduring rhetorical movement, begun in the 1st century B.C.E., whose members strove to emulate the style of the best Attic orators of that Classical period; especially in contrast with Asianism or Hellenism. (Its leading early proponent, Dionysius of Halicarnassus [c. 60–p. 7 B.C.E.], identified Lysias [c. 445–380 B.C.E.] as “the perfect model of the Attic dialect”, whose virtues he enumerates to be “purity of language, correct dialect, the presentation of ideas by means of standard, not figurative expressions; clarity, brevity, concision, terseness, vivid representation…, the pleasing arrangement of words after the manner of ordinary speech…, charm and a sense of timing which regulates everything else”.)

(chiefly historical or dated, singular only, by extension) The stylistic principles of Greek Atticism in application to other languages, especially to Latin.

argilliturbation

From Latin argilla (“clay”) + turbation.

At SBA-1807 and SBA-2061, these processes include bioturbation, argilliturbation, chemical weathering, downslope movement, natural addition of faunal remains to the midden, wildfires, trampling, grading, plowing, and discing.

1994, Jon Erlandson, Early Hunter-Gatherers of the California Coast, page 165:

In extreme situations, argilliturbation can result in a surface stone pavement (Johnson and Hester 1972, Muhs 1982).

2005, Randall J. Schaetzl, Sharon Anderson, Soils: Genesis and Geomorphology, page 291:

A site′s stratigraphy can become thoroughly churned if this argilliturbation process takes place over and over for hundreds or thousands of years.

2012, Robert L. Kelly, David Hurst Thomas, Archaeology, page 112:

(geology, archaeology) A mixing process in clay rich soils subjected to cycles of wet and dry, whereby the soil expands when wet and contracts as it dries, causing soil, stones and artefacts to move up and down.


Neolithic Revolution

The end of the last ice age around 10,000 b.c. was followed by what is called the Neolithic Revolution; that is, the revolution that occurred in the New Stone Age (the word Neolithic is Greek for “New Stone.”)

1997, Jackson J[oseph] Spielvogel, “[The Ancient Near East: The First Civilizations] The First Humans”, in Western Civilization, 3rd edition, volume I (To 1715), Saint Paul, Minn.: West Publishing Company, →ISBN, page 5, column 1:

The Neolithic Revolution (about 8000-3000 B.C.E.) was characterized by people moving from nomadic lifestyles to agricultural lifestyles.

2004, Monty Armstrong, David Daniel, Abby Kanarek, Cracking the AP World History Exam, 2004-2005, The Princeton Review, page 328:

For most people, the concept of the Neolithic Revolution refers to the actual origin of agriculture with domesticated plants, this occurring in Southwest Asia in the late PPNA or early PPNB at around 9000-8500 BC.

2005, Peter S. Bellwood, The First Farmers: the origins of agricultural societies, Wiley-Blackwell, page 65

The Neolithic Revolution brought about the greatest material transformation in human history.

2010, I. Peter Martini, Landscapes and Societies: Selected Cases, Springer, page 25

baroque piety

From baroque + piety, after French piété baroque.

Outside the crypto-Protestants and a small elite attracted to Jansenism after 1750 the bulk of the population, in Bohemia as in Austria, had been won over to baroque piety.

1979, Jean Bérenger, ‘The Austrian Church’, Church and Society in Catholic Europe of the Eighteenth Century, Cambridge, page 101:

Post-Tridentine worship was in essence a baroque piety which expressed itself in florid ostentation and which used all the media of communication and the material culture of worship to make a powerful sensorial assault on the life of the spirit.

2002, Colin Jones, The Great Nation, Penguin, published 2003, page 94:

This shifting stance among both educated elites and secular rulers toward Baroque piety would be a crucial precondition for the spread of enlightened ideas in Catholic Germany [...].

2011, Helmut Walser Smith, editor, Oxford Handbook of Modern German History, Oxford, page 213:

(history) An ostentatious form of popular Catholic piety, especially in Counter-Reformation Europe.

1912, Arthur Conan Doyle, “‘Our Eyes have seen Great Wonders’”, in The Lost World […], London; New York, N.Y.: Hodder and Stoughton, →OCLC, page 277:

(paleontology) A gigantic extinct herbivorous mammal from South America, having teeth bent like a bow. It is the type of the order Toxodonta.


Cymro-

From B.C. 390, to B.C. 900, is the fall and rise of the Etrurian or Tyrrhenian empire, of the establishment of the Cymro-Gallic empire in Northern Italy, and of the Etrurian domination in Rome

1862, Britannicus (pseudonym), “Vindication of the mosaic ethnology of Europe”, in The Cambrian Journal, page 149:

And as for the physical type or types, the light complexion is very unlike that of the earlier British or Iberian race, though we cannot say that the ruling Cymro-Gaelic stocks were not fair.

1907, John Beddoe, Joseph Hamberly Rowe, “The Ethnology of West Yorkshire”, in The Yorkshire Archæological Journal, volume 19, page 32:

Some people derive Berwick from the Cymro-Teutonic compound Aber-wick. This sounds most reasonable, Aber signifying the mouth of a river, while some of the Saxons whom Ida gathered into one kingdom certainly then or later had a "wick" or town here. The Celts would naturally have emphasized the penultimate and made it Aberwick [...]

bed of justice

Calque of French lit de justice, referring to the throne occupied by the king when sitting in one of his judicial courts.

when [...] he himself announced that the king would hold a Bed of Justice to compel the instant registration of the necessary edicts, the Parliament became more exasperated than ever.

1866, Charles Duke Yonge, The History of France under the Bourbons, pages 43–4:

D'Argenson was prepared with advice. ‘A bed of justice will suffice, Highness.’

1949, Rafael Sabatini, The Gamester, Stratus Books 2001, p. 137

(history) A special parliamentary session headed by the king in pre-Revolutionary France, where royal edicts could be forcibly registered.


lit de justice

From French lit de justice, referring to the throne occupied by the king when sitting in one of his judicial courts. Compare earlier bed of justice.

They would then be officially registered by edicts of the King in that special process, the lit de justice (which could also be used to enforce edicts that the Parlement resisted).

The Parlement's remonstrances were not effective, and the Six Acts were enforced by a lit de justice in March 1776.

2002, Colin Jones, The Great Nation, Penguin, published 2003, page 300:

This, however, is only a hypothesis which leaves out of account the special circumstances that led to the lit de justice of 24 July.

2015, Robert J Knecht, Francis I and Sixteenth-Century France, Routledge:

A decision of a lit de justice could only be stamped by the Parliament.

Taylorism

en-noun

Taylorism (usually uncountable, plural Taylorisms)

The brisk and lively narrative is spiced with Taylorisms: ' Hitler lost , as someone has to do in war, and has therefore been written off as a psychopath'.

It is full of what friends of mine at Oxford used to call 'Taylorisms', and as research students there we used to collect them — from his 'except the Italians ' in The Struggle for Mastery to his famous claim at the end of The Origins of the Second World War that Hitler 'became involved in war through launching on 29 August a diplomatic manoeuvre which he ought to have launched on 28 August'.

1983, Peter Quennell, History Today - Volume 33, page 30:

What makes Ponsonby significant is that he was one of A.J.P. Taylor's ' troublemakers' whom Taylor credits with all change and advance in history. While some would say that this is a typically large and perverse Taylorism, it is not without an element of truth when applied to the role played by Ponsonby and his fellow troublemakers in the search for a new international order.

1989, Raymond A. Jones, Arthur Ponsonby: The Politics of Life, page Arthur Ponsonby: The Politics of Life:

A.J.P. Taylor, The Second World War (Hamish Hamilton 1975), like Jacobsen's book, consists of pictorial history; liberally sprinkled with taylorisms, and not inclined to overstress resistance.

Macrodontia and microdontia are relatively common human craniofacial abnormalities, and macrodontia of premolars has frequently been described as molarized premolars.

1998 November 6, Abigail S. Tucker et al., “Transformation of Tooth Type Induced by Inhibition of BMP Signaling”, in Science, volume 282, number 5391, →DOI, pages 1136–1138:

All are characterized by extreme postcanine megadontia, premolars with molarized roots, lower molars with accessory cuspules, and thick molar enamel.

1999 April 9, Melanie A. McCollum, “The Robust Australopithecine Face: A Morphogenetic Perspective”, in Science, volume 284, number 5412, →DOI, pages 301–305:

In the Eocene, slender chocropotamids (e.g. younger species of Amphirhagatherium) belong to this group, which display a tendency to elongate the skull and molarize the premolars.

2007, Donald R. Prothero, Scott E Foss, The Evolution of Artiodactyls, →ISBN, page 81:

(paleontology) To evolve or develop into molar teeth.


sea monk

[…] three sea monks being found in 1530, 1546 and 1549. In fact the first sea monk was not a sea monk at all, having been found in the Rhine. The second one was found near Copenhagen with a black head and the clothes of a monk and the final one was found near Hafnia (Copenhagen), tonsured like a monk. […] Nonetheless walruses remain a possible explanation for the occurence of sea monks prior to 1546.

2005, Steenstrupia, volume 29, pages 40-45:

Sea monks had failed to assert themselves into the popular imagination the way mermaids had. They lacked a certain appeal. The few pictorial depictions stuck a tonsured human head on a fish body, scaly fins and tail forming the monk's ...

2019, Holly MacArthur, Tin House 80: 20th Anniversary Edition:

egression

The reason for this lies in the fact that a wide-shell-band, running along the margin of the egression, is superposed directly upon the shell of the preceding whorl.

1899, Memoirs of the Geological Survey of India, page 11:

According to Klinger and Kennedy (1989), the hoplitoidean Placenticeras kaffarium displays a rather strong umbilical egression, which gives it a scaphitoid adult morphology.

2015, Christian Klug, Dieter Korn, Kenneth De Baets, Ammonoid Paleobiology: From anatomy to ecology, page 288:

Egression of the umbilical suture line on the last whorl of an adult and complete speciment is one morphologic feature which is unambiguous evidence of maturity in ammonites.

2012, Reinhart A. Gygi, Quantitative Geology of Late Jurassic Epicontinental Sediments in the Jura Mountains of Switzerland, page 66:

Haunebu

It has been suggested that the Haunebu, an “ethnic” name known from most periods, were a partly assimilated group living in this environment and reported in recognizable form only in Classical texts.

1996, John Baines, Jerrold S. Cooper, Glenn M. Schwartz, editors, The Study of the Ancient Near East in the Twenty-First Century: The William Foxwell Albright Centennial Conference, Eisenbrauns, page 362:

He studied ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic records and in Atlantis of the North (New York, Van Norstrand Reinhold Company, 1980) he discussed the mystery of the Haunebu or North People. The Haunebu were mentioned in texts dating to 2400 B.C.

1997, Jon Douglas Singer, Lost lands and cities beneath the sea: legends, folklore, and facts of the North Atlantic, page 5:

They were called Haunebu, and a treasurer of the Eleventh Dynasty, whose duty was the maintenance of safe frontier ports, boasts of himself as one “who quells the Haunebu.”

hesperornithid

From translingual Hesperornithidae, from Hesperornis (“genus name”).

Finally, the Volgorod locality, Maastrichtian in age, has yielded two dinosaurs (an indeterminate hesperornithid and a basal theropod) and a few turtles.

2011, David B. Weishampel, Coralia-Maria Jianu, Transylvanian Dinosaurs, Johns Hopkins University Press, page 109:

The arrival of these hesperornithids in more southern waters during the early Campanian may indicate a cooler climate, closer shores, adaptations to changes in prey, or other factors.

2017, Michael J. Everhart, Oceans of Kansas, Indiana University Press, page 365:

2020, Alan Feduccia, Romancing the Birds and Dinosaurs, Universal Publishers (BrownWalker Press), page 83,

diprionidian

Two leading types may be distinguished amongst the Graptolites, which are termed respectively "monoprionidian" and "diprionidian." The monoprionidian Graptolites, such as Monograptiis priodon (fig. 54), are distinguished by the fact that the polypary, whether simple or branched, possesses but a single row of cellules or "hydrothecæ." In the diprionidian forms, on the other hand, as in Diplograptus (fig. 63), the polypary possesses a row of cellules on each side.

Zanclean

From Ancient Greek Ζάγκλη (Zánklē), the name originally given to the city of Messina, Sicily, by its ancient Greek founders. (Compare Messinian, the preceding age.)

1881, "A. W. W.", Notices of Memoirs: I.—Tertiary Geology of the Reggiano (Calabria), in Henry Woodward (editor), Geological Magazine, New Series, Decade 2, Volume 8, Trübner & Co., page 324,
The Pliocene is found at a much greater elevation than any of the other Tertiary series, reaching in the Zanclean to 1200 mètres above the sea, and as the conditions of deposition were quite different here from those which obtained in north Italy, the series in one part of the peninsula forms a complement to those in the other.

In the first case the Early Pliocene coincides with the Zanclean and its upper boundary with the last occurrence of Globorotalia margaritae (Mazzei et al., 1978).

1989, Silvia Iaccarino, “8: Mediterranean Miocene and Pliocene planktic foraminifera”, in Hans M. Bolli, John B. Saunders, Katharina Perch-Nielsen, editors, Plankton Stratigraphy, Volume 1, Cambridge University Press, page 288:

Warmer climates and sea level rises did not occur until the early Zanclean Pliocene (4.5 million years).

Wuchiapingian

From the Wade–Giles romanization of Mandarin 吳家坪／吴家坪 (Wújiāpíng, literally “Wu Family Flatland”) in Shaanxi Province in China: Wu²-chia¹-pʻing².

bor

Anoxic/euxinic benthic marine conditions prevailed throughout the middle Wuchiapingian to the early Changhsingian at Shangsi, which persisted for 3.9 Myr (256.974–253.073 Ma). This long-term middle Wuchiapingian-early Changhsingian anoxia event could be correlated both regionally and globally, and was caused by paleogeographic restrictions, relative high sea levels, high marine productivities, and possible global climate changes.

Changhsingian

From Mandarin 長興／长兴 (Chángxīng), Wade-Giles romanization: Chʻang²-hsing¹; named after Changxing County in China.

There is no evidence for a large drop in PCO2, and independent proxy data indicate only a minor temperature decrease of a few degrees Celsius during the Changhsingian (22), suggesting that these mechanisms alone cannot explain the pH increase (fig. S5).

ビュザンティオン

specificker

From specific (“specific remedy”) + -er, originally a calque of German Spezifiker, used by Samuel Hahnemann (1755–1843).

Those who arrogate to themselves the appellation of orthodox Hahnemannians have travelled far away, under the guidance of Gross, into the mystic regions of the 200th, 800th, and 10,000th dilutions, while the section, by the former styled specifickers, have gradually descended to the lowest numerals in the scale of dilutions until they have attained their ultima Thule in the Schmidian tinctures and first triturations.

1847, J.J. Drysdale, J.R. Russell, and R.E. Dudgeon (editors), The British Journal of Homœopathy V, № xxi, “Dr. G. Schmid’s Homœopathic Treatment with Undiluted Medicines”, pages 257–258, editors’ preamble

Those who have been derisively termed specifickers by their opponents…usually arrogate to themselves the title of pures or Hahnemannians. Some difference there must be between the specifickers and the pures…[although it] does not, I believe, consist in any want of that spirit of individualization so necessary for the selection of the appropriate drug on the part of the so-called specifickers, but rather that they endeavour more than their rivals to bring the light of modern pathology to bear on the investigation of the morbid case, and seek to refer, when possible the array of symptoms to the derangement of some particular organ or system.

1852–3, Robert Ellis Dudgeon, Lectures on the Theory and Practice of Homœopathy (1854), lecture III: “On Specific Medicine, and Attempts at a Theory of Cure”, page 54

The so-called Specifickers…chiefly rely in the choice of the remedy on certain groups of symptoms, intimately related to the pathology and diagnosis of the disease, and to the so-called general character of the action of the medicine…and also allow great influence to the clinical experience in the final decision.

1860, Clotar Müller, “Repertorium or Therapeutics?”, in The British Journal of Homœopathy, XVIII, № lxxii, page 179:

The more the specificker relies on the merely general action of the drug (often, indeed, partly ascertained ab usu in morbis), the more he approaches to the allopathists, who will, ere long, equal him or even surpass him.

1863, J.J. Drysdale, R.E. Dudgeon, and R. Hughes (editors), The British Journal of Homœopathy XXI, № lxxxv, “Review: Wilson, Cockburn, and Cameron on Hempel”, page 467

It is true that there were in Germany, at that time, numbers of eminent physicians who differed greatly from Hahnemann on the question of the dose (for they administered the mother tinctures); whom he disowned, and designated “specifickers,” in terms of contempt and indignation.

1865 June, Hugh Cameron (spoken participant), “On the Chemical Treatment of Disease” in Annals and Transactions of the British Homœopathic Society, and of the London Homœopathic Hospital IV (1866), № xxi, page 232

They are…very similar to the practical observations of those of our school who draw the indications of the medicine mainly from clinical experience, guided by the more general physiological action of the medicines, i.e., those called specifickers by the more complete homœopathists, who keep in view the finer shades of the pathogenesis.

1865 July, J.J. Drysdale, R.E. Dudgeon, and R. Hughes (editors), The British Journal of Homœopathy XXIII, № xciii, “Review: Treatment of Rheumatism, Epilepsy, and Fever, by Dr. J. R. Russell”, page 472

The habit once formed in respect to some medicines, soon extends to the better proved medicines, and the practitioner becomes a mere specificker.

1866, John James Drysdale, “On the Arrangement of the Materia Medica”, in The British Journal of Homœopathy, XXIV, № xcvi, page 239:

Before Prof. M. and “we” were in our teens, even while in our squares (diaper, you know), a certain set styled themselves disciples of pure homœopathy and derided all who differed with them as “Specifickers.”

1869, Carl Müller, “Peccavi! Vel Peccavi?” in the American Homœopathic Observer VI, page 270

From this time up to 1836 contests were gradually developed between Hahnemann and his followers, which led to a division between the old Hahnemannians and the so-called specifickers, the latter favoring more progress.

1876, Transactions of the World’s Homœopathic Convention, II (1880), page 20:

The men who exclusively and permanently practise with strong tinctures and crude drugs are almost certainly non-symptomatic practitioners, men who are content to take general and pathological indications, and to treat according to the name of the disease — mere specifickers — and very likely to fall back altogether to mere routine and usus in morbis practice.

1880, John W. Hayward, “Presidential Address”, in The British Journal of Homœopathy, XXXIX, № clv (January 1881), page 32:

In acute and typical diseases, the fewer your remedies the better: but beyond this range, you can hardly have too many. It is here that the mere specificker, the mere organopathist fails; while the full method of Hahnemann wins victories which are a continual source of delight.

1902, Richard Hughes, The Principles and Practice of Homœopathy, 3rd edition, page 144:

(history, homeopathy, originally derogatory, obsolete) A homoeopathic practitioner who sought to ascertain the aetiologies of diseases, focusing on the symptoms most regularly associated with their diagnosis (to the exclusion of peripheral and occasional symptoms), and who, for their treatment, selected remedies (administered in more-or-less undiluted form) on the basis of their general physiological effects, ignoring incidental and side-effects.
