This thesis presents a procedure to identify and evaluate forest
arterial and collector networks. The procedure identifies those
decision criteria important in evaluating both the arterial and
collector networks and the specific facilities identified on these
networks. The procedure incorporates the decision criteria and results
from network and facility analysis...

The uppermost unit is a deflated surface containing burnt shell and lithic artifacts associated with early Holocene ¹⁴C dates, while the underlying unit contained only lithic tools and debitage,...
A study is conducted to provide information useful to the future development of agro-pastoralists
in the Kolda Region through an economic and socio-cultural analysis of the
