  SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE AND THE HESSELL-TILTMAN PRIZEA journey told through stories and songs into Doggerland, the ancient region that once joined the east coast of England to Holland. Time Song tells of the creation, the existence and the loss of a country now called Doggerland, a huge and fertile area that once connected the entire east coast of England with mainland Europe, until it was finally submerged by rising sea levels around 5000 BC.  Blackburn mixes fragments from her own life with a series of eighteen 'songs' and all sorts of stories about the places and the people she meets in her quest to get closer to an understanding of Doggerland. She sees the footprints of early humans fossilised in the soft mud of an estuary alongside the scattered pockmarks made by rain falling eight thousand years ago. She visits a cave where the remnants of a Neanderthal meal have turned to stone. In Denmark she sits beside Tollund Man who seems to be about to wake from a dream, even though he has lain in a peat bog since the start of the Iron Age.

  In the heart of Indonesia, amidst the verdant landscapes of Lebak Regency, lies a remarkable testament to centuries of unwavering commitment to nature’s embrace. Here, a pristine forest thrives, untouched by the relentless march of modern degradation. This sanctuary owes its existence to the Baduy tribe, also known as the Kanekes people, and their revered leader, Pu’un. For generations, Pu’un has masterfully safeguarded this ecological haven, ensuring its preservation through a unique leadership style deeply rooted in traditional values and a profound understanding of cultural sustainability. 
  This ethnographic study delves into the holistic management practiced by the Pu’un of the Baduy tribe, exploring a leadership paradigm that transcends conventional approaches. It unravels the intricate threads of their traditional governance, the profound methods by which values are instilled, and the very source of Pu’un’s enduring knowledge. As the world grapples with escalating environmental crises, the wisdom of the Baduy offers a compelling alternative—a model where human existence and natural harmony are inextricably linked, guided by a leadership that prioritizes the delicate balance of the universe over transient gains. This exploration seeks to illuminate the potential applications of such a holistic approach within contemporary management science, particularly in the critical domain of environmental and natural conservation.

  Amorite Kingdoms The: The...

  As the Canaanites established themselves in most of the Levant and the Hurrians carved out space for themselves in northwestern Syria, a West Semitic ethnic group known as the Amorites entered Mesopotamia and Syria from the Arabian Desert. The movement of the Amorites and Hurrians coincided with the collapse of the Ur III Dynasty after 2004 BCE (Haywood 2005, 28), although it is not known for sure if the collapse of Ur III led to the movement of peoples, or if the movement at least partially led to the collapse. As the Ur III Dynasty grew weak internally, it could be that the Amorite attacks were a major factor in the destruction of the state. It must be stated, though, that it was the Elamites who ultimately delivered the coup de grace that brought Ur III to its knees. The more likely scenario is that the Amorites simply took advantage of the power vacuum that was created when Ur III collapsed. 
  The Amorites actually belonged to several sub-tribes and did not necessarily move in unison, but they did migrate in such large numbers that they were able to overwhelm much of Mesopotamia and northeastern Syria by about 1800 BCE. All of the notable political dynasties and city-states from this period – Babylon, Mari, Assyria, Eshnunna, and Yamhad – were established by ethnic Amorites, although only traces of the Amorite identity were retained. The Amorites accepted standard Mesopotamian and Syrian religious practices, utilized the Akkadian language and the cuneiform writing style extensively, and built monumental architecture based on the Sumerian and Akkadian styles. Some bands of Amorites did in fact retain their semi-nomadic lifestyle, but they often found their former kinsmen were not so tolerant of their wandering traditions. Some of the early sedentary Amorites used the still semi-nomadic Amorites as mercenaries in their armies, but they also often fought them and did whatever they could to keep them out of their boundaries.
