Ancient-There are few remaining examples with early art often favouring drawing over colour.

The following are a few examples:

Although there are few examples of such systems competitive with traditional analysis techniques, potential advantages include size / portability, speed, and cost.

The relatively small number of atomic absorption lines ( compared to atomic emission lines ) and their narrow width ( a few pm ) make spectral overlap rare ; there are only very few examples known that an absorption line from one element will overlap with another.

Bock is an unusual style in the UK, but a few examples exist.

The " warrior " derivation was adopted by the linguist, Julius Pokorny, who presented it as being from Indo-European * bhei ( ə )-, * bhī -, " hit ;" however, not finding any Celtic names close to it ( except for the Boii ), he adduces examples somewhat more widely from originals further back in time: phohiio-s -, a Venetic personal name ; Boioi, an Illyrian tribe ; Boiōtoi, a Greek tribal name (" the Boeotians ") and a few others.

A few examples follow:

: A few examples of named Bronze Age cultures in Europe in roughly relative order.

Although mainly concentrated in the northern Highlands and the Islands, a few examples occur in the Borders ( for example Edin's Hall Broch ), on the west coast of Dumfries and Galloway and near Stirling.

Some enthusiasts become generalists and accumulate a few examples from a broad variety of historical or geographically significant coins.

For a few illustrative examples: German speakers use " Wasserstoff " ( water substance ) for " hydrogen ", " Sauerstoff " ( acid substance ) for " oxygen " and " Stickstoff " ( smothering substance ) for " nitrogen ", while English and some romance languages use " sodium " for " natrium " and " potassium " for " kalium ", and the French, Italians, Greeks, Portuguese and Poles prefer " azote / azot / azoto " ( from roots meaning " no life ") for " nitrogen ".

A few examples of crystallographic defects include vacancy defects ( an empty space where an atom should fit ), interstitial defects ( an extra atom squeezed in where it does not fit ), and dislocations ( see figure at right ).

Forge welding was also used to create solid links, but there are few possible examples known, the only well documented example from Europe is that of the 7th century Coppergate mail drape.

Very few examples of historic butted mail have been found and it is generally accepted that butted mail was never in wide use historically except in Japan where mail ( kusari ) was commonly made from butted links.

Some television shows such as Deadliest Warrior have incorrectly portrayed butted mail as having been used historically in Europe or the Middle East ( in reality, Japanese mail ( kusari ) is one of the few historically correct examples of mail being constructed with such butted links ).

This has come into question, though, that confidential information has been used to blackmail possible defectors ( see Fair Game ( Scientology )) However, a few transcripts of auditing sessions with confidential information removed have been published as demonstration examples.

Group pressures toward conformity are slight or non-existent, and deviant behavior in mate selection incurs few if any social sanctions.

Athenian democracy took the form of a direct democracy, and it had two distinguishing features: the random selection of ordinary citizens to fill the few existing government administrative and judicial offices, and a legislative assembly consisting of all Athenian citizens.

The idea that a few people have about the gene being the target of selection is completely impractical ; a gene is never visible to natural selection, and in the genotype, it is always in the context with other genes, and the interaction with those other genes make a particular gene either more favorable or less favorable.

Blending inheritance would lead to uniformity across populations in only a few generations and thus would remove variation from a population on which natural selection could act.

In prehistoric times, most individuals were not as likely to live past 30, with few reaching their fourth decade, and thus it wasn't likely that this trait was subject to selection.

In the past few years, the field has exploded to include many additional areas of study, not all of which are clearly included under Darwin's definition of sexual selection.

His strategy established that evolution through natural laws was worthy of scientific study, and by 1875, most scientists accepted that evolution occurred but few thought natural selection was significant.

For example, if only a few closely related males survive a natural disaster, and all are able to mate very widely due to lack of males, sexual selection has been suppressed by an ecological selection ( the disaster ).

A few such catastrophic events where ecological selection predominates can lead to a population with specific advantages, e. g. in colonization when invading populations from more crowded disease-prone conditions arrive with antibodies to diseases, and the diseases themselves, which proceed to wipe out natives, clearing the way for the colonists.

This selection presents texts from the Bible, Charles Dickens, Thomas Wolfe, Ray Bradbury, and James Thurber to name just a few.

Transmitters were built in a few locations and carried a four-hour selection of black-and-white videotaped programs each day.

The process of their selection and their relationship to Ceres ' older, entirely male priesthood is unknown ; but they far outnumbered her few male priests, and would have been highly respected and influential figures in their own communities.

Most computer operating systems allow selection of the decimal mark and programs that have been carefully internationalised will follow this, but some programs ignore it and a few are even broken by it.

A compilation double-CD featuring a selection of the songs in the countdown is released a few months after the count ; the first CD is still available for sale.

released The Best of The Call, which featured a selection of old favorites and few new songs.

A film crew and LVCVA representative visited the town for a few days and interviewed residents about the town, their impressions of and experience with Las Vegas, and their opinions about the ongoing selection process.

This week-long event celebrates the Royal Burgh, through the selection of a " Queen " and her " Attendants " from fourth-year girls in the secondary school, and a parade of lorries and horses, to name but a few events.

After a few generations without this natural selection pressure, unless such genetic material were profoundly fixed, it would tend to diversify and lose its function.

Since few were alive at older ages and their contribution to the next generation was therefore small relative to the large cohorts of younger age groups, the force of selection against such late-acting deleterious mutations was correspondingly small.

Young cohorts, not depleted in numbers yet by extrinsic mortality, contribute far more to the next generation than the few remaining older cohorts, so the force of selection against late-acting deleterious mutations, which affect only these few older individuals, is very weak.

This is because high mortality led to the selection of only a few broodstock, causing inbreeding depression, which then forced the use of wild broodstock.
