This research analyzes the effectiveness of design elements like picture, text and color in aesthetic products advertisement; it compares advertisements in the two countries of Iran and Sweden. Dependent variables in this research are the opinion of Iranian and Swedish consumers and Independent variables are pictures (model, endorser, endorser age, endorser nationality and appeal), color (colorful and black &white) and text (typeface and text concept). Based on the causal research design, I analyze how a change in the design elements affects the opinion of consumers in Iran and Sweden about the ad. This research emphasizes on three kinds of aesthetic Products including: jewelry, make up and clothing. The reason to choose the aesthetic products is because of their uniqueness comparing to other products which are to satisfy the psychological needs of the consumers. The Media that is analyzed here is visual advertisings like magazine, newspaper, billboards and posters. Theoretical investigation was the data collection through secondary data; it was the library study, reading 151 articles and books related to the subject of this research; the primary data collection was through my own experience of cultural differences and also interview with advertisers in both countries and the finally the experiment targeted to the consumers. To do the experiment, a number of 200 females between 20-30 (100 Swedish and 100 Iranian) are chosen and they are asked to choose the ad which mostly attracts their attention. Ads are wisely chosen and each of them analyzes the change in one of the design elements and its effectiveness in attracting the attention of the consumers. This research is started with the purpose of the research and the research problem, then I bring the theoretical insights, the research questions and their relevant hypothesis; finally I bring the methodology, the experiment and the interviews and in the end, I do a qualitative analysis of the results. Based on the result of the research, picture and text are very competitive in attracting the attention of the consumers to the ad. Aesthetic product advertisement is more effective in both countries if there is a use of an endorser instead of the product image; endorsers are most likely to be celebrities, in the age of below 20 and from a mix of nationalities; ads are most likely to be colorful and use the Serif typefaces. In designing the ads for the aesthetic products in Iran it is more effective to use the sex appeal while in Sweden it is more effective to use the slice of life appeal. Finally consumers in Iran are more attracted to the ad by the impression of the text concept comparing to Swedes. The keywords of this research are: Design, Advertising, Aesthetic products and Cultural investigation

AbstractThousands of Roma were killed in Ukraine by the Nazis and auxiliary police on the spot. There are more than 50,000 Roma in today’s Ukraine, represented by second and third generation decendants of the genocide survivors. The discussion on Roma identity cannot be isolated from the memory of the genocide, which makes the struggle over the past a reflexive landmark that mobilizes the Roma movement. About twenty Roma genocide memorials have been erected in Ukraine during last decade, and in 2016 the national memorial of the Roma genocide was opened in Babi Yar. However, scholars do not have a clear picture of memory narratives and memory practices of the Roma genocide in Ukraine. A comprehensive analysis of the contemporary situation is not possible without an examination of the history and memory of the Roma genocide before 1991.

On sait peu de choses sur le peuplement du Sahara pendant l'optimum climatique de l'Holocène, lorsque le désert a été remplacé par un environnement fertile. Afin d'étudier le rôle du dernier Sahara Vert dans le peuplement de l'Afrique, nous séquençons en profondeur toute la partie non répétitive du chromosome Y chez 104 mâles sélectionnés comme représentatifs des haplogroupes qui se trouvent actuellement au nord et au sud du Sahara. Nous identifions 5 966 mutations, dont nous extrayons 142 marqueurs informatifs puis génotypés chez environ 8 000 sujets issus de 145 populations africaines, eurasiennes et afro-américaines. Nous constatons que l'âge de coalescence des haplogroupes transsahariens remonte au dernier Sahara vert, tandis que la plupart des clades d'Afrique du Nord ou d'Afrique subsaharienne se sont étendus localement au cours de la phase aride ultérieure. Nos résultats suggèrent que le Sahara Vert a favorisé les mouvements humains et les expansions démographiques, peut-être liés à l'adoption du pastoralisme. En comparant nos résultats avec les données précédemment rapportées sur l'ensemble du génome, nous trouvons également des preuves d'une contribution subsaharienne biaisée en fonction du sexe aux Africains du Nord, suggérant que des événements historiques tels que la traite négrière transsaharienne ont principalement contribué au pool d'ADNmt et de gènes autosomiques, alors que le pool de gènes paternels d'Afrique du Nord a été principalement façonné par des événements plus anciens. Poco se sabe sobre el poblamiento del Sahara durante el óptimo climático del Holoceno, cuando el desierto fue sustituido por un entorno fértil. Con el fin de investigar el papel del último Sáhara Verde en el poblamiento de África, secuenciamos profundamente toda la porción no repetitiva del cromosoma Y en 104 machos seleccionados como representativos de los haplogrupos que se encuentran actualmente al norte y al sur del Sáhara. Identificamos 5.966 mutaciones, de las que extraemos 142 marcadores informativos genotipados en unos 8.000 sujetos de 145 poblaciones africanas, euroasiáticas y afroamericanas. Encontramos que la edad de coalescencia de los haplogrupos transaharianos se remonta al último Sáhara Verde, mientras que la mayoría de los clados del norte de África o subsaharianos se expandieron localmente en la fase árida posterior. Nuestros hallazgos sugieren que el Sáhara Verde promovió movimientos humanos y expansiones demográficas, posiblemente relacionadas con la adopción del pastoreo. Al comparar nuestros resultados con los datos de todo el genoma informados anteriormente, también encontramos evidencia de una contribución subsahariana sesgada por sexo a los africanos del norte, lo que sugiere que eventos históricos como la trata de esclavos transahariana contribuyeron principalmente al ADNmt y al acervo genético autosómico, mientras que el acervo genético paterno del norte de África fue formado principalmente por eventos más antiguos. Little is known about the peopling of the Sahara during the Holocene climatic optimum, when the desert was replaced by a fertile environment. In order to investigate the role of the last Green Sahara in the peopling of Africa, we deep-sequence the whole non-repetitive portion of the Y chromosome in 104 males selected as representative of haplogroups which are currently found to the north and to the south of the Sahara. We identify 5,966 mutations, from which we extract 142 informative markers then genotyped in about 8,000 subjects from 145 African, Eurasian and African American populations. We find that the coalescence age of the trans-Saharan haplogroups dates back to the last Green Sahara, while most northern African or sub-Saharan clades expanded locally in the subsequent arid phase. Our findings suggest that the Green Sahara promoted human movements and demographic expansions, possibly linked to the adoption of pastoralism. Comparing our results with previously reported genome-wide data, we also find evidence for a sex-biased sub-Saharan contribution to northern Africans, suggesting that historical events such as the trans-Saharan slave trade mainly contributed to the mtDNA and autosomal gene pool, whereas the northern African paternal gene pool was mainly shaped by more ancient events. لا يُعرف سوى القليل عن سكان الصحراء خلال العصر الهولوسيني المناخي الأمثل، عندما تم استبدال الصحراء ببيئة خصبة. من أجل التحقيق في دور آخر صحراء خضراء في سكان أفريقيا، نقوم بتعميق الجزء الكامل غير المتكرر من الكروموسوم Y في 104 ذكور تم اختيارهم كممثلين للمجموعات الفردانية التي توجد حاليًا في شمال وجنوب الصحراء. نحدد 5,966 طفرة، نستخرج منها 142 علامة إعلامية ثم نُصنّف جينيًا في حوالي 8,000 مشارك من 145 مجموعة من السكان الأفارقة والأوراسيين والأمريكيين الأفارقة. نجد أن عصر التلاحم للمجموعات الفردانية العابرة للصحراء يعود إلى آخر صحراء خضراء، في حين أن معظم الفروع الخضراء في شمال إفريقيا أو جنوب الصحراء الكبرى توسعت محليًا في المرحلة القاحلة اللاحقة. تشير النتائج التي توصلنا إليها إلى أن الصحراء الخضراء عززت الحركات البشرية والتوسعات الديموغرافية، والتي قد تكون مرتبطة بتبني الرعي. بمقارنة نتائجنا بالبيانات التي تم الإبلاغ عنها سابقًا على مستوى الجينوم، نجد أيضًا دليلًا على مساهمة جنوب الصحراء المتحيزة جنسيًا لشمال إفريقيا، مما يشير إلى أن الأحداث التاريخية مثل تجارة الرقيق عبر الصحراء الكبرى ساهمت بشكل أساسي في الحمض النووي متعدد الجينات ومجموعة الجينات الجسدية، في حين أن مجموعة الجينات الأبوية في شمال إفريقيا تشكلت بشكل أساسي من خلال الأحداث القديمة.

Recently rediscovered photographs of the remains of thirteen individuals buried in the Sado Valley Mesolithic shell middens of Poças de S. Bento and Arapouco, excavated in 1960 and 1962, show the potential of revisiting excavation archives with new methods. The analysis, which applies the principles of archaeothanatology and is enriched by experimental taphonomic research, confirmed details concerning the treatment of the dead body and provided new insights into the use of burial spaces. Some bodies may have been mummified prior to burial, a phenomenon possibly linked to their curation and transport, highlighting the significance of both the body and the burial place in Mesolithic south-western Portugal.
