The presentation lists primarily natural resources and other commodities represented in the archaeological record derived from 20 seasons of excavations between 1994 and 2015 at the harbor site of Berenike on the Red Sea, first by a Dutch–American and then by a Polish–American team. Categories include spices/condiments, incense/frankincense, minerals and metals (gold included), precious and semiprecious stones, cameo blanks, ivory, cowry shells, turtle shell, raw glass, as well as botanics (foodstuffs) and exotic and domestic animals, not to mention human slaves. The less obvious resources that are attested indirectly in the archaeological record include water, wine and olive oil. A separate category are the building materials: stone of different kind and wood, both locally procured and imported. The main objective of the project is to work toward a network visualization of the resources (and other commodities) in the archaeological record from the different, currently excavated sites in the trade network and to compare it in the future to the ex-isting network visualization of the list of goods extracted from the Periplus Maris Erythraei, a 1st century AD sailing and trading guide.

Państwa bogate w zasoby ropy naftowej często muszą się mierzyć z negatywnymi dla ich wydajności gospodarczej konsekwencjami rozwoju opartego na surowcach naturalnych. Jednym z powodów jest fakt, że zwiększenie poziomu wydobycia w danym kraju często prowadzi do różnorakich zmian w jego polityce publicznej i zarządzaniu przychodami. Kolumbia to kraj, który spektakularnie zwiększył produkcję ropy o prawie 500 tysięcy baryłek dziennie w ciągu ostatnich dziesięciu lat. Było to głównie efektem polityki silnie zorientowanej na przyciąganie inwestycji do sektora naftowego. Kraj jest obecnie czwartym co do wielkości producentem ropy w Ameryce Łacińskiej, odnotowując blisko dziesięć razy większe wartości eksportu niż pod koniec XX w. Gospodarcze skutki boomu naftowego są już widoczne, co stwarza wiele nowych wyzwań dla rządu. Konieczne jest szczególnie zapewnienie Kolumbii zrównoważonego rozwoju i ograniczenie wpływu spadających światowych cen ropy naftowej. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie wyników badań na temat wpływu rozwoju sektora ropy na gospodarkę kolumbijską w XXI w., ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem obecnej sytuacji.

Oil-rich countries often face negative consequences of natural resources-led development on their overall economic performance. One of the reasons is that a country’s rising extraction rates frequently lead to various changes in its public policy and revenue management. Colombia has spectacularly increased its oil production by almost 500,000 barrels per day (bpd) in ten years, which was the effect principally of the implementation of strongly market-oriented petroleum policies in 2003. It is now the fourth largest crude producer in Latin America, registering nearly ten times more export sales than at the end of the 20th century. The economic effects of the oil-boom are already visible, which has created many new challenges the government must face in order to ensure sustainable development in the country, and to be able to mitigate the impact of the recently dropping world oil prices. The purpose of the article is to present the latest findings on the impact of the oil sector development on the Colombian economy in the 21st century, focusing especially on the current situation.
