Cattle were also pivotal in mythology: gods and heroes stole cattle, expected sacrifices of cattle, and punished those who failed to provide them. The Cattle of the Sun ranges over a wealth of sources, both textual and archaeological, to explore why these animals mattered to the Greeks, how they came to be a key element in Greek thought and behavior, and how the Greeks exploited the symbolic value of cattle as a way of structuring social and economic relations. Jeremy McInerney explains that cattle's importance began with domestication and pastoralism: cattle were nurtured, bred, killed, and eaten. Practically useful and symbolically potent, cattle became social capital to be exchanged, offered to the gods, or consumed collectively. This circulation of cattle wealth structured Greek society, since dedication to the gods, sacrifice, and feasting constituted the most basic institutions of Greek life. McInerney shows that cattle contributed to the growth of sanctuaries in the Greek city-states, as well as to changes in the economic practices of the Greeks, from the Iron Age through the classical period, as a monetized, market economy developed from an earlier economy of barter and exchange. Combining a broad theoretical approach with a careful reading of sources, The Cattle of the Sun illustrates the significant position that cattle held in the culture and experiences of the Greeks.Some images inside the book are unavailable due to digital copyright restrictions. 606 $aCattle$zGreece$xHistory 606 $aPastoral systems$zGreece$xHistory 606 $aCattle$zGreece$xReligious aspects$xHistory 606 $aAnimal sacrifice$zGreece$xHistory 606 $aFasts and feasts$zGreece$xHistory 606 $aCattle trade$zGreece$xHistory 606 $aNational characteristics, Greek$xHistory 607 $aGreece$xHistory$yTo 146 B.C 607 $aGreece$xReligious life and customs 607 $aGreece$xEconomic conditions$yTo 146 B.C 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCattle$xHistory. 615 0$aPastoral systems$xHistory. 615 0$aCattle$xReligious aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aAnimal sacrifice$xHistory. 615 0$aFasts and feasts$xHistory. 615 0$aCattle trade$xHistory. 615 0$aNational characteristics, Greek$xHistory. 676 $a636.20938 686 $aNH 6850$2rvk 700 $aMcInerney$b Jeremy$f1958-$01027533 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458427903321 996 $aThe cattle of the sun$92443027 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01339nam 2200325 n 450 001 996390344903316 005 20221108073252.0 035 $a(CKB)4940000000099180 035 $a(EEBO)2248492449 035 $a(UnM)99827642 035 $a(UnM)9927759500971 035 $a(EXLCZ)994940000000099180 100 $a19950307d1700 uy | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn#|||a|bb| 200 14$aThe book of Job in meeter$b[electronic resource] $eas to several of those excellent things contain'd therein, the better to familiarize them, and to bring them the more into use, for peoples benefit, to be sung after the ordinary, and usual tunes.

In plants processing flammable materials, every effort is made to avoid the escape of such materials and in addition, stringent measures are taken to exclude sources of ignition. A complex array of standards surround this topic which has lead to an overly conservative approach being taken. This type of approach means that much more expensive electrical apparatus than is necessary is installed. To avoid this unnecessary expenditure, Dr Groh clearly explains the relevant standards, so that accurate assessment of the risks associated with hazardous areas is possible. He also identifies possible ignition sources and methods of designing apparatus which do not cause sparks thereby maintaining safety. * Covers must-have information regarding IEC/CENELEC standards in electrical or hazardous area classification * Provides a clear overview of a complex area 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aMine gases 650 0$aFiredamp 650 0$aExplosions$xSafety measures 650 0$aExplosionproof electric apparatus and appliances 650 0$aChemical plants$xSafety measures 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750647779$z9780750647779$w(OCoLC)55610269 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750647779$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 907 $a.b13652011$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003228799707536 996 $aExplosion protection$91213402 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gne $h0$i0
