Description : Ayoub CHAFIK, ATER, Université des Antilles, s'est intéressé à une représentation comparative et interactive entre l'Egypte et le Chili dans leur rapport avec l'interventionnisme étasunien. Il est question de traiter la question de l'idée cosmopolitique, c'est-à-dire du rôle de cette instance informelle qui se veut unificatrice et pacificatrice là où l'hégémon étasunien qui en est la figure de proue en use régulièrement à des fins peu altruistes. L'examen de la confluence des dynamiques sociétales caractérisant ces deux espaces publics est de ce fait l'enjeu de cette intervention.

Description : Nenad Fejic, professeur à l'Université des Antilles, historien médiéviste, présente ses recherches sur l'esclavage au Moyen-âge. Il précise que le bassin adriatique ouvre aux médiévistes un espace privilégié de recherche en raison de la variété de son paysage. En outre, des pays comme la Bosnie étaient à cette époque un vivrier de main d'oeuvre dans cet espace car les autres zones de recrutement à la même époque, telles que la Bulgarie, les côtes de l'Égypte et la Russie étaient bien plus éloignées. Quelques registres existent sur les esclaves, tels que des registres des arrêts civils et criminels mais rarement peut-on trouver de quoi constituer le parcours de vie d'un esclave.

Résumé : International audience
Numerous phases of igneous activity took place in Egypt during the Mesozoic and the Cenozoic but no paleointensity results have ever been published from these rocks. Therefore a preliminary Survey was conducted in the northern part of Egypt and in Sinai to test the Suitability of these basalts for paleointensity determinations. Three Oligo-Miocene sites have been sampled north of Cairo: Abu Zaabal, Qatrani, and 6th of October City. In Sinai, we sampled Jurassic basalts in Wadi Budra and Oligo-Miocene rocks from Wadi Nukhul. The main magnetic carriers of these rocks are titanomagnetites with varying Ti content. Large secondary components are present in most middle Jurassic basalts and discrepancies remain in the directional analysis so this sill cannot be used for paleointensity experiments and the associated poles should not be considered for paleomagnetic reconstructions either. Directional analysis of the Oligo-Miocene basalts is very straightforward and updated mean VGPs have been calculated from the Cairo area (68.9 degrees N, 91.3 degrees E; Kappa = 274; A(95) = 3.7) and from Wadi Nukhul (72.7 degrees N, 13.4 degrees E; Kappa = 528; A(95) = 5.4). Pseudo-paleointensity results obtained as well from stable Egypt as from Sinai are promising, with values lower or similar (between 29 to 58 mu T) to present-day field intensity.

Résumé : Ants have evolved venoms rich in peptides and proteins used for predation, defense, and communication. However, they remain extremely understudied due to the minimal amount of venom secreted by each ant. The present study investigated the differences in the proteome and peptidome of the venom from the bullet ant, Paraponera clavata. Venom samples were collected from a single colony either by manual venom gland dissection or by electrical stimulation and were compared using proteomic methods. Venom proteins were separated by 2D-PAGE and identified by nanoLC-ESI-QTOF MS/MS. Venom peptides were initially separated using C18 reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, then analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS. The proteomic analysis revealed numerous proteins that could be assigned a biological function (total 94), mainly as toxins, or roles in cell regulation and transport. This investigation found that ca. 73% of the proteins were common to venoms collected by the two methods. The peptidomic analysis revealed a large number of peptides (total 309) but with <20% shared by the two collection methods. There was also a marked difference between venoms obtained by venom gland dissection from different ant colonies. These findings demonstrate the rich composition and variability of P. clavata venom.

Résumé : International audience
Coming from Crimea, the Black Death spread to Western Europe and North Africa during the 1340s. From 1346 to 1352, the plague killed an estimated 25-40% of Europeans of all age-groups [1] , i.e., 30 to 60% of Europe population. One of the earliest and most widely accepted explanations was that God was punishing humanity for their sins. One remedy for the curse was to do penitence. Thus in 1348 there rapidly arose a mass movement of flagellation [2]. In fact flagellation could not really help against such threat. The Black Death or Bubonic plague is caused by Yersinia pestis, a Eubacteria discovered in 1894 by Alexandre Yersin. It is transmitted by the bite of the flea Xenopsylla cheopsis. This flea lives by feeding the blood of many species besides man but its most preferred relationship is with the black rat (Rattus rattus). Fossilized remains of the plague flea have been found in large numbers in Amarna, Egypt [3, 4] about 1350 BC, and thus could be directly linked to the events described in the Book of Samuel [5, 6]. During the epidemic of Bubonic plague in London in 1665-1666, the known treatments were made use of, e.g. the so-famous Theriac or Venice Treacle which is used from the time of ancient Rome as a remedy against poison [7]. Since then, more specialized and novel treatments have been developed. However, since the characterization of Yersinia pestis, numerous drugs have been developed against it, e.g. gentamicin or doxycycline [8]. These researches had been carried out using more elaborated biochemical, biophysical and biological approaches.

Résumé : We report on a multidisciplinary study of cold seeps explored in the Central Nile deep-sea fan of the Egyptian margin. Our approach combines in situ seafloor observation, geophysics, sedimentological data, measurement of bottom-water methane anomalies, pore-water and sediment geochemistry, and Th-230/U dating of authigenic carbonates. Two areas were investigated, which correspond to different sedimentary provinces. The lower slope, at similar to 2100 m water depth, indicates deformation of sediments by gravitational processes, exhibiting slope-parallel elongated ridges and seafloor depressions. In contrast, the middle slope, at similar to 1650 m water depth, exhibits a series of debris-flow deposits not remobilized by post-depositional gravity processes. Significant differences exist between fluid-escape structures from the two studied areas. At the lower slope, methane anomalies were detected in bottom-waters above the depressions, whereas the adjacent ridges show a frequent coverage of fractured carbonate pavements associated with chemosynthetic vent communities. Carbonate U/Th age dates (similar to 8 kyr BP), pore-water sulphate and solid phase sediment data suggest that seepage activity at those carbonate ridges has decreased over the recent past. In contrast, large (similar to 1 km(2)) carbonate-paved areas were discovered in the middle slope, with U/Th isotope evidence for ongoing carbonate precipitation during the Late Holocene (since similar to 5 kyr BP at least). Our results suggest that fluid venting is closely related to sediment deformation in the Central Nile margin. It is proposed that slope instability leads to focused fluid flow in the lower slope and exposure of 'fossil' carbonate ridges, whereas pervasive diffuse flow prevails at the unfailed middle slope.

Résumé : Rock foundations of the Kephren and Kheops pyramids are examined in comparison with other Fourth Dynasty monuments: the Sphinx, Queen Kentkawes' monument and the Abu Rawash monument. This study is based on geological and topographical observations, photomontages and field measurements. The results, which are correlated with those of former studies, demonstrate the existence of natural hills used as substrata in the construction of the two great pyramids. The minimum volume of these hills can be estimated at 12% and 23% respectively of the volumes of the Kephren and Kheops pyramids. The use of worked rock hills appears to be a construction method under the Fourth Dynasty.

Résumé : Two highly active mud volcanoes located in 990-1,265 m water depths were mapped on the northern Egyptian continental slope during the BIONIL expedition of R/V Meteor in October 2006. High-resolution swath bathymetry and backscatter imagery were acquired with an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV)-mounted multibeam echosounder, operating at a frequency of 200 kHz. Data allowed for the construction of similar to 1 m pixel bathymetry and backscatter maps. The newly produced maps provide details of the seabed morphology and texture, and insights into the formation of the two mud volcanoes. They also contain key indicators on the distribution of seepage and its tectonic control. The acquisition of high-resolution seafloor bathymetry and acoustic imagery maps with an AUV-mounted multibeam echosounder fills the gap in spatial scale between conventional multibeam data collected from a surface vessel and in situ video observations made from a manned submersible or a remotely operating vehicle.

Résumé : 22 pages; 20 figures
Rock foundations of the Kephren and Kheops pyramids are examined in comparison with other Fourth Dynasty monuments: the Sphinx, Queen Kentkawes' mastaba and the Abu Rawash pyramid. This study is based on geological and geomorphological observations, visual observation, and photomontages. Results, correlated with those of former studies, demonstrate the existence of natural hills used as substrata in the construction of the two great pyramids. The minimum volume of these hills can be estimated at 12% and 23% respectively of the volumes of the Kephren and Kheops pyramids. The use of worked rock hills appears to be a characteristic of the construction methods under the Fourth Dynasty.
Le substratum rocheux des pyramides de Kheops et Khephren est étudié en comparaison avec celui d'autres monuments de la quatrième dynastie de l'ancienne Egypte : le Sphinx, le mastaba de la reine Kentkawes et la pyramide d'Abu Rawash. Cette étude est basée sur des observations géologiques et géomorphologiques, l'observation visuelle et des photomontages, ainsi que des mesures réalisées sur le terrain. Les résultats, corrélés avec ceux d'études antérieures, démontrent l'existence de collines naturelles utilisées comme assises pour la construction des deux grandes pyramides. Le volume minimum de ces collines peut être estimé par rapport au volume total à 12% pour Khephren et 23% pour Kheops. L'utilisation de collines rocheuses pour asseoir la construction d'un monument apparaît être caractéristique des méthodes de construction utilisées sous la quatrième dynastie.

Résumé : International audience
At the peak of the second colonial Empire, citizenship there has three essential characteristics: it is fragmented by diverse forms of hierarchisation of the electorate ; it is reserved solely for nationals of the colonial Empire, the French and natives within a differentiated conception of nationality ; it is marked by the idea of civilisation. This situation came about in several stages: in 1978, specific citizenship is devised to civilise the newly freed; between 1848 and 1870, in Algeria there is some experimentation with local citizenship for the French, foreigners and natives, but this was abandoned; between 1870 and 1898, local citizenship is devised, expanded to include national elections for the natives of French India, whilst with the Algerian financial delegations, the “representation of interests” is accompanied by French citizenship without the right to participate in local elections.
Dans le second Empire colonial à son apogée, la citoyenneté a trois caractéristiques essentielles : elle est fragmentée par diverses formes de hiérarchisation quant à l’électorat ; elle est réservée aux seuls ressortissants de l’Empire colonial, les Français et les indigènes, dans le cadre d’une conception différenciée de la nationalité ; elle est marquée par l’idée de civilisation. Cette situation est née en plusieurs étapes : en 1798, on conçoit une citoyenneté spécifique pour civiliser les nouveaux libres ; entre 1848 et 1870, en Algérie, on expérimente puis abandonne une citoyenneté locale pour les Français, les étrangers et les indigènes ; entre 1870 et 1898, on conçoit une citoyenneté locale élargie aux élections nationales pour les natifs de l’Inde française, alors qu’avec les délégations financières algériennes, la « représentation des intérêts » s’accompagne d’une citoyenneté française amputée du droit de participer à une élection locale.

Résumé : International audience
The high proportion of crystallized apatite forming the bones and teeth should theoretically allow the use of fission track analysis to date vertebrate fossils when burying of the fossiliferous series did not subject them to temperatures exceeding 60 degrees C. However several major obstacles arise such as the complexity of fossils' internal structures, diagenetic modifications and substitutions of the hydroxyapatite by other minerals, and massive U uptake or loss during diagenesis. In this work, those various problems are addressed combining optical microscope observation of the fossils, a systematic fission track analysis of the best samples, alpha and gamma spectrometry and Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry. Even if the problems caused by internal structures and mineral substitutions can be solved, U movements in and out of the fossils are generally too complex to allow fission track analysis dating of the fossils.
