Glossary of literary theory The Glossary of Literary Theory is a basic online reference source describing many of the common terms of literary theory. Entries are arranged alphabetically, each linking to a paragraph or two explaining who developed or is particularly associated with the term in question, and how they have defined the term. Most definitions include hyperlinks to other related entries. On the whole, the definitions provided by the glossary are clear, although in some instances a little brief. The lack of bibliographic references and illustrations limits the utility of the site, although it should still be o From New Humbul Resources on November 12, 2004 at 10:11 p.m..

Pig measurements from Durrington Walls The 'Pig Bones from Durrington Walls' resource contains twelve datasets representing measurements from a large sample of well-preserved teeth and bones from the late Neolithic site of Durrington Walls (Wiltshire, southern England). The resource aims to address the problem that small samples of pig (Sus scrofa) measurements are not particularly meaningful if analysed in isolation and can only be used as part of a broader data bank of measurements from a particular area or period. The assemblage derives from excavations carried out in 1966-67 (Wainwright & Longworth, 1971) and the meas From New Humbul Resources on November 12, 2004 at 10:11 p.m..
