Hello mates!


In post free today I want to talk about a very enigmatic ritual, which is practiced throughout the history of man walking on fire.
 Walking barefoot on hot coals is an ancient tradition that takes place in many parts of the world to celebrate civic or religious holidays, and has gained popularity in the United States among those looking for alternative ways to revitalize the spirit.
Although coals or wood burn at a much higher than that human skin can withstand temperature, those who practice this tradition usually do not suffer injury.
Physics provides explanations that have to do with the conductivity, heat and presence of water can be illustrated by laboratory experiments but some attribute the safety of the "passage of fire" the power of the mind.
 The fire-walking has been practiced as a ritual of purification, healing, initiation and transcendence, in most of the cultures of our planet. Today this ceremony is seen as a powerful tool towards personal fulfillment and empowerment.

Hello class

Today I want to share with you the best experience I have had in this semester: My first out a field trip. In my career I have to that travel a lot, but for a series of unfortunate events in this last two years of university I was not allowed to.  For this activity my class was divided into tree section. The first section travels to Tal-Tal, the second section travels to Quillagua and my section travel to Los Vilos. The out a field trip lasted a week, and we are working hard every day, excavated and collected materials such as lithic artifacts, ceramic and bone the extinct animal. I enjoyed that week! I didn’t want return to Santiago. I met many people and learned many; it was an excellent experience for me, professionally and personally.

I hope this has been time well semester for you too.
Bye bye

Hello friends

 in this post I will talk about a website I use a lot in my career, the SciELO site.


Scielo, scientific electronic library online, is a scientific library that currently operates in 8 countries, which are Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Spain, Portugal and Venezuela, in which there is a virtual library with a wide collection of selected journals in all areas of knowledge. The Chilean version (SciELO Chile) is in charge of the National Commission for Scientific and Technological Research (CONICYT).
I knew this site in my first year in the university (2010) seeking information for homework in the subject anthropology 1. Then I would return to use in as many subjects as prehistory, evolution, functionalism, to name a few. Today in archeology mention me is very useful in all the topic of prehistory, also archeological theories and methodologies used in my profession. Through this website I can access more specialized journals of archeology such as magazine Chilean anthropology CHUNGARA, which publishes original, empirical and theoretical contributions in the various disciplines of anthropology and related sciences related to the Andean region of South America and other areas the world; and ESTUDIOS ATACAMEÑOS site, which publishes and disseminates original and unpublished contributions resulting from research on topics of archeology, social anthropology, ethnohistory and  bioanthropology of the Atacama region and southern Andean center.
For my liking,  this is a highly recommended site because has a large number of articles in various areas of knowledge, this is a highly recommended site that has a large number of articles in various areas of knowledge, very helpful to develop reports and Bibliographical Revisions; and why it responds to high quality standards, possessing rigorous evaluation procedures.
Good friends here I leave the link: http://www.scielo.org/php/index.php?lang=es
 I hope you to take a look and find it useful.

Regards.

Hi classmate 

The topic today it’s the technologic, I like talk about the Wii.  Wii it’s a video game console of the Nintendo Company brings gaming to people of all ages.   My Dad offered me in Christmas celebrity, since that play every time. Generally compete whit my brother, games such as tennis or car racing, but what I really like is play Mario bros game.



 I have become an addicted of this game, I can play for hours.  Is that it is very funny, besides that you can plays with many more person. It’s useful for time with family and friends, even for make exercise. I think that my life without the Wii console will be very boring… even though maybe, it would be beneficial for my studies.
And you, what games do you play?

Bye bye

 Hello class!
In this new post I will talk about my expectations for a new semester.  I have 8 subjects this autumn-winter semester, including archaeological theory III, Prehistory III (central-south), terrain techniques III, laboratory techniques I (lithic tools), laboratory techniques III (zoo-archeology), quantitative archeology, pre-Columbian textiles and English level III.  I really haven’t extracurriculars because I believe that I have so much work this semester.  However, the university is offering sports workshops, including table tennis, a sport that I love and I want to practice.
I hope this new academic year is highly motivating and entertaining, but mostly it's not too stressful as last semester .
 I hope it's also a good semester for all
Bye bye.
