Worshipping the king god: a preliminary analysis of Chintang ritual language in the invocation of Rajdeu

Hittite andurza “inside, indoors” and the Indo-Hittite Hypothesis

Hittite attests an adverbial form andurza, with the basic meaning " inside; indoors ". It is often found opposed in ritual texts to askáz (ablative of aska-'gate') " out of the gate, outdoors " (see Puhvel [1984: s.v.] for citations); it also occurs in treaties with reference to rebellions in the meaning " in the interior, internally " , and is therein opposed to aravza (an old ablative of arva...

Proper development of nephrons is essential for kidney function. β-Catenin-independent Wnt signaling through Fzd8, Inversin, Daam1, RhoA and Myosin is required for nephric tubule morphogenesis. Here, we provide a novel mechanism through which non-canonical Wnt signalingcontributesto tubulardevelopment.UsingXenopus laevisasa model system, we found that the cell-adhesion molecule Alcam is require...

Satisfying KBO Constraints

This paper presents two new approaches to prove termination of rewrite systems with the Knuth-Bendix order efficiently. The constraints for the weight function and for the precedence are encoded in (pseudo-)propositional logic and the resulting formula is tested for satisfiability. Any satisfying assignment represents a weight function and a precedence such that the induced Knuth-Bendix order o...
