Synopsis
The North American Great Plains and Rocky Mountains have yielded many artifacts and other clues about the prehistoric people who once lived there, but little is understood about the hunting practices that ensured their survival for thousands of years. Noted archaeologist George Frison brings a lifetime of experience as a hunter, rancher, and guide to bear on excavation data from the region relating to hunting, illuminating prehistoric hunting practices in entirely new ways. Sharing his intimate knowledge of animal habitats and behavior and his familiarity with hunting strategies and techniques, Frison argues that this kind of firsthand knowledge is crucial for understanding hunting in the past., Es geht um die These, daa das Volk von Rom politische Macht ausuben konnte, indem es durch die Demonstration von Zustimmung, Sympathie und Loyalitat fur einen Kaiser einen herrschaftslegitimierenden Einflua nahm; durch die erfolgte offentliche Meinungsbildung zugunsten eines Kaisers trug es zu dessen Machtsicherung bei. Umgekehrt war es der Plebs durch offentliche Kundgebung des Sympathieverlustes unter Umstanden moglich, die Legitimitat eines Herrschers in Frage zu stellen und eine destabilisierende Wirkung auf dessen Regime auszuuben. Die Beweisfuhrung dieser These vollzieht sich im Rahmen eines Vergleiches der julisch-claudischen Epoche und der Zeit ab der Herrschaft des Kaisers Commodus bis zum Ende der Regierung der Kaiser Pupienus und Balbinus. (Franz Steiner 1993)

    The boots were shipped in a timely manner and arrived on time. They were very carefully packaged and arrived in perfect condition. The box was undamaged. The boots are exactly as they were described in the post and I believe are 1980s era. They are rare and a great value. (Note I electronically removed the shipping label from the box’s image.
