During the second part of the 19th century Iberism acquired importance both as intellectual movement and ideology. This or that form of peninsula integration occupied thinking of Iberian intellectuals at least since the end of reconquista. Spanish and Portuguese dynasties were traditionally intertwined by means of mutual marriages and when, in 1581, Portuguese dynastic crisis took place, peninsular/transatlantic union under the crown of Spanish Hapsburgs was introduced. After the restoration of independence (1640) national traditions and authenticity became favorite topic of conservative Portuguese ideologues (Miguelists, integralists) and symbol of Portuguese identity.

Three discoveries of metal saddle appliques have been unearthed in Western and Central Europe: Krefeld-Gellep, Ravenna and Sárvíz. Our aim is to list the parallels of saddle appliques with a similar shape, to determine the origin, datation and function of these items. These appliques have many parallels to the East, in Eastern Europe and more scarcely in Kazakhstan, in the post-Hunnic period (from the middle of the 5th to the middle of the 6th century). The reconstruction of saddles with metallic appliques is well established based on the discoveries made in the horse tombs in the necropolis of Dyurso, in the North-East of the Black Sea, belonging to the Goths-Tetraxites of the second half of the 5th and the 6th centuries. We can assume that a common prototype existed for these saddles, as shown by findings in the North Caucasus. We can therefore assume the ‘oriental’ origin of the saddles with metallic appliques. Western appliques (Krefeld-Gellep, Ravenna and Sárvíz) differ from those in Eastern Europe and Kazakhstan, suggesting the existence of various manufacturing centers. Indeed, the cloisonné decor of appliques in the West suggests they were manufactured in Mediterranean or Byzantine workshops. Lastly, in the funerary context, the presence of saddles with metallic appliques is most often the sign of the privileged nature of the burial. It is a common ‘princely fashion’ of barbarians from different parts of Europe and even Asia.

Identity is a key term in the vernacular idiom of contemporary public debate. The greatest risk that this concept incurs is that it becomes an explanatory principle, which - exhausting its heuristic capability - transforms into a dangerous, ideologically oriented, and fruitless 'taken for granted' perspective. A possible way out, which is the one suggested in this contribution, imposes the analytic necessity to 'deconstruct' identity in a core of more verifiable analytical categories. While maintaining an inescapable link with the term's original conceptualisation, the analitycal categories offered in the paper may outline its elements, thus making its operative translation easier and less 'magmatic'. Bearing in mind these premises, the aim of this paper is a) to rebuild the theoretic background that gave rise to the research on immigrants' identification processes in the intercultural context of their host countries; b) to present the essential ecological elements of the empiric context of reference; c) to briefly show the results (and the empirical toolbox) of a fieldwork in Mazara del Vallo (a border city in the southwestern extremity of Sicily). While very far from solving the debate, this contribution deals with the so called 'hystérie identitaire' and addresses a problem that is central for the sociological approach: that of avoiding in scientific debate of the problematic constraints of identity shifts implying a particular form of 'social philosophy'.

Balkan multipart house yard is unknown in Europe and not appreciated duly within the frame of the ethnology of the Balkans. The yard is being divided territorially and functionally to living, working and cultivated spaces, with graduated requirements for each zone and an elaborated system of communication. The parts of the yard function almost independently. In the majority of the cases, the yard is being divided into two parts, living and working one. During the long summer period, the residence is being transferred from the inner, closed part of the house to the living part of the yard and the adjacent, roofed terrace opened to the yard. The clean residential part of the yard is the norm and it resembles a living garden - in rural as well as contemporary urban millieu. The division of the yard and the marginalization of its economic functions depend on the type of cultivation. The authoress analyses the causes, contexts and manifestations of functional differentiation and complicated systems of cultivation of the Balkan yard. Its formal unity can be perceived as a proof of its developmental stability and long, unrestrained development. The concept of residential family intimity of the closed yard is being followed to the Ancient roots, the atrial and peristyl house, as well as to the tradition of two thousand years of multipart houses of privileged and unprivileged millieu. This tradition is being interpreted as the carrying over of the value of Mediterranean, originally urban cultivated yard and the adaptation of the principle of division of the house - social, historical, ethnical and religious, of great potential for invention and renovation. It represents the Balkan unity in diversity.
