Its use for tempering building materials could be demonstrated for the Roman quarry settlement Mons Claudianus, also located in the Eastern Desert, about 400 km north of Berenike. This specific use is evidenced in Mons Claudianus by the analysis of wall plaster and mud bricks, while an ostrakon confirms the delivery of chaff . The ostraka…

This was done…

For SBP reactivity and recovery, effect sizes of persistent stressor exposure versus high childhood exposure were 58% higher, suggesting the combined impact of adversity across childhood and adulthood may be stronger than childhood exposure alone. Results using continuous stressor variables did not support a multiplicative effect of childhood and adulthood stressor exposures, thus there was…
