Three-quarters of the Earth's surface is covered by water, and beneath the oceans, lakes, and rivers lies a physical record of human history including shipwrecks, submerged cities, and other traces of the past. Most underwater archaeologists specialize in studying historic watercraft and nautical archaeology, but other submerged sites that are studied include sunken settlements and offerings placed in sinkholes or bogs. Laws require that underwater cultural sites be documented by archaeologists before being impacted by activities like development, fishing, drilling, or cable laying. Studying past shipwrecks has also helped improve maritime safety practices.

The study of the past is to understand the human behavioral activities and cultural progress in a sequential order based on tangible and intangible evidences in a given socio-economic-cultural context. The Archaeological data has to be placed in a chronological order to understand this sequential cultural process. For this, various dating methods are being used in the archaeological investigations.
The Law of Stratigraphy in archaeology refers to a set of fundamental principles that govern the deposition of geological and archaeological layers over time. These laws serve as the cornerstone for establishing relative chronologies within archaeological sites, allowing archaeologists to determine the relative ages of different layers or strata.
One of the most well-known laws is the Law of Superposition, which states that in an undisturbed sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the oldest layers are at the bottom and the youngest layers are at the top. This principle forms the basis for understanding the temporal sequence of events within a site.
Another important principle is the Law of Original Horizontality, which asserts that sedimentary layers are originally deposited in horizontal or nearly horizontal layers. This law aids archaeologists in interpreting the original orientation of geological strata and helps identify any subsequent tilting or folding that may have occurred.
The Law of Lateral Continuity states that layers of sediment extend laterally in all directions until they thin out or encounter a barrier. This principle is crucial for correlating strata across different areas of a site.
The Law of Cross-Cutting Relationships helps determine the relative ages of geological features by examining their relationships with one another. Features such as faults, intrusions, or erosional surfaces that cut across existing layers are younger than the layers they intersect.
The Law of Faunal Succession and the Law of Biotic Succession rely on the principle that fossil organisms and biological communities succeed one another in a determinable order. By analyzing the fossil record and the succession of plant and animal species, archaeologists can infer relative ages of strata.
Overall, the Law of Stratigraphy provides archaeologists with essential tools for interpreting the temporal sequences of archaeological sites and constructing relative chronologies. These principles are fundamental to the practice of archaeology and are utilized in conjunction with other dating methods to reconstruct past human activities and environmental changes.

Young children are capable of observing, making inferences and justifying deductions. Yet these skills are rarely made use of in the History class. Children are given information regarding the sources of history without being encouraged to learn through discovery. Some natural questions that children can ask while looking at sources are “How was it made”? “How was it used?”, “How old is it?” etc. These questions lead to deeper questions like “What do we know for certain?”, “What reasonable guesses can we make, based on what evidence?” While using available sources to construct their own accounts of the past, children also learn that accounts may differ because evidence is incomplete. Through this presentation, an attempt has been made to introduce the process of historical enquiry in children, encouraging them to examine sources, question inferences and assumptions, construct their own history and above all, trigger curiosity.

People are well aware of the existence and relevance of coral reefs that occur in tropical seas. They are well known for their structural beauty but also because the reefs they form are generally the home of abundant, diverse and colorful communities of fishes and invertebrates.
But corals are not restricted to the shallow waters of tropical seas
What Columbus Discovered by Kirkpatrick Sale in The Nati.docxalanfhall8953
What Columbus Discovered"
by Kirkpatrick Sale
in "The Nation" (October 22, 1990, pp. 444-446)
Although its official quincentennial is not to be commemorated
for another two years, the hoopla over the "discovery of America"
is already well under way. On the one side, with many millions of
dollars and weighty governmental sanctions, are the official
Quincentennial Commissions, established now in at least thirty
nations on both sides of the Atlantic and planning a bewildering
array of parades, pageants, fairs, regattas, conferences,
monuments, publications, cruises and exhibitions, all with the
general themes of celebration and self-congratulation. Seville
will host a $7 billion Expo '92; the Dominican Republic is
construction a $10 million lighthouse as the largest Columbus
monument in the world; Columbus, Ohio, will host this nation's
first international floral exhibition ("Ameriflora 1992"); and the
U.S. Quincentennial Jubilee Commission will spend an estimated $80
million to coordinate events throughout the Americas that will, in
the words of chief booster George Bush, "ensure that this
commemoration will have the significant global impact that such a
milestone deserves."
On the other side, with no resources to speak of and only a
handful of activists as the troops, are a variety of protest
groups, guided primarily by Native Americans, that are hoping to
use what they carefully call "the encounter" to raise issues having
to do with the clash of cultures, the rights of indigenous peoples,
the legacy of colonialism, and ecological protection and
restoration. Philip Tajitsu Nash, who speaks for the newly formed
Columbus in Context Coalition, has argued that the quincentennial
"provides progressives ... with our best opportunity since the Viet
Nam War to come together in a forward-looking, broad-based
coalition."
Just what political dimensions the quincentennial events will
have, and what messages will be heard by the receiving public,
remain to be seen. But if the real meaning of the momentous
discovery is not to be lost in all the foofaraw, it seems
appropriate to start with some grounding in the actual achievement
that is being celebrated, seen in the kind of historical
perspective that will yield some pertinent lessons for today.
It is fitting that we begin with the night the New World first
presented itself to the Old. It was October 11, and the moon was
just a few days past full, the skies clear. Three small ships from
the Spanish port of Palos, none of them bigger than a modern tennis
court, were scudding before a brisk breeze of about ten knots,
somewhere in the western part of the Ocean Sea. The mood of
anticipation was high, even after thirty-two days at sea, for signs
of land had come increasingly often in the previous few days.
Around 10 o'clock the captain general of the little fleet,
known to his companions as Cristobal Colon--"Columbus" was a
latter-day Latinization that he him.
Seafood is any form of sea life regarded as food by humans, prominently including fish and shellfish. Shellfish include various species of molluscs (e.g. bivalve molluscs such as clams, oysters, and mussels and cephalopods such as octopus and squid), crustaceans (e.g. shrimp, crabs, and lobster), and echinoderms (e.g. sea cucumbers and sea urchins).

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

3. 3/4of Earth’s surface is water
Water-borne transportation has allowed
exploration of much of the globe and
facilitated the rise and fall of great empires.
Beneath the surface of our
oceans, lakes, rivers, and wetlands lies a
physical record of humankind
;shipwrecks, inundated cities, harbor
works, and other traces of our past.
4. The majority of
underwater
archaeologists
specialize in the study
of nautical
archaeology: the study
of the construction and
operation of all types
historic watercraft.
5. Other types of sites in
include inundated land
sites; sinkholes or bogs
where people placed
offerings or buried their
dead; cities and harbors
now submerged by sea
level change or
earthquake; and
dwelling, agricultural,
and industrial sites along
rivers, bays, and lakes.
6.
7. Many laws and
regulations require
that sites be located,
inventoried, and
studied by qualified
archaeologists before
they are impacted or
destroyed by
development.
8. Often Submerged sites such as ship wrecks
pose a danger to modern human endeavors;
shipping lanes, seabed mining, commercial
fishing, and oil and natural gas drilling can be
affected by submerged cultural resources.
Ship hulls can abrade and cut trans-oceanic
cables, commercial fishing nets can become
entangled endangering crews, and many
other dangers to people can arise from
submerged material culture.
10. Studying where and
how ships have
wrecked in the past
has lead to
developments in safer
marine navigation, with
the placement of
lighthouses, safety
beacons, the marking
of dangerous currents
on nautical charts.
