This paper deals with the aspect of place (space) in Buddhist narratives. Starting from the observation that narrated time is often vaguely indicated in Buddhist narratives, but places and sites of the narrated events are quite specific—although frequently introduced in a stereotypical way (“Once the Buddha dwelled in Śrāvastī …” “Once when Brahmadatta was king in Vārāṇasī …”)—the question is asked why a place is so important for and in Buddhist narratives. Based on selected examples, the argument is made that it is the “blueprint” of “early” Buddhist biographical sources, with the Buddha acting/preaching at specific places, which made these places accessible spaces where merit could be gained through “contact” with soteriologically important events in the past.

Neanderthal plant use and pyrotechnology: phytolith analysis from Roc de Marsal, FranceThe plant component of Neanderthal subsistence and technology is not well documented, partially due to the preservation constraints of macrobotanical components. Phytoliths, however, are preserved even when other plant remains have decayed and so provide evidence for Neanderthal plant use and the environmental context of archaeological sites. Phytolith assemblages from Roc de Marsal, a Middle Paleolithic cave site in SW France, provide new insight into the relationship between Neanderthals and plant resources. Ninety-seven samples from all archaeological units and 18 control samples are analyzed. Phytoliths from the wood and bark of dicotyledonous plants are the most prevalent, but there is also a significant proportion of grass phytoliths in many samples. Phytolith densities are much greater in earlier layers, which is likely related to the presence of combustion features in those layers. These phytoliths indicate a warmer, wetter climate, whereas phytoliths from upper layers indicate a cooler, drier environment. Phytoliths recovered from combustion features indicate that wood was the primary plant fuel source, while grasses may have been used as surface preparations.

En este artículo conceptual se presenta una elucidación sobre el derecho a la educación a la luz de su desarrollo normativo en los países de América Latina. Este se trata de un derecho que posee un alto reconocimiento normativo pero una baja efectividad. El objetivo de este trabajo es revisar conceptualmente el significado de la educación como derecho humano. Se adopta una perspectiva metodológica cualitativa que tiene por objeto el análisis discursivo del material empírico organizado y reconstruir los alcances del contenido del derecho a la educación. Entre los resultados se analiza los estándares y se reconstruye los alcances del contenido del derecho a la educación en la jurisdicción internacional. Como conclusiones se identifican escalas de análisis, a partir de indicadores normativos, que posibilitan la demarcación del contenido del derecho a la educación.
