Bronze Age Potapovka culture , ca. 2500&mdash 2000 BC. A Bronze Age culture centered on the Samara bend in the middle Volga region, projecting well east into the Samara River valley. It seems to be connected only in a material culture way with the earlier stage of the Andronovo culture Sintashta and Petrovka settlement Petrovka period , but probably genetically to the Poltavka culture , with influences from the more northerly Abashevo culture . Loosely, it can be considered as descended from the earlier Khvalynsk culture and Samara culture , both of which occupied this same geographic extent. The inhumation s are in kurgans tumuli . Smaller less important graves surround the original tumulus. Animals, either whole or in parts, were among the grave offerings cattle, sheep, goats, dogs . One burial has the corpse s head replaced with that of a horse, reminiscent of the Vedic account of how the Asv ns replace the head of the priest Dadhya c Artharvana with that of a horse so that he could reveal the secret of the sacred drink. &mdash EIEC Potapovka Culture The culture was clearly comfortable with horses. Wheels and wheeled vehicles are equivocally identified in the remains. Mallory argues that the Potapovka culture s lack of a clear genetic relationship with the early Andronovo culture, and that the Andronovo lacks an immediate local ancestor, the cultural trajectory for the Indo European societies of this region need to be seen as coming from the west. It was preceded by the Yamna culture , and succeeded by the Srubna culture . Sources J. P. Mallory , Potapovka Culture , Encyclopedia of Indo European Culture , Fitzroy Dearborn, 1997.

Bronze Age The Ezero culture , 3300&mdash 2700 BC, was a Bronze Age archaeological culture occupying most of present day Bulgaria . It takes its name from the Tell settlement of Ezero . Ezero follows the chalcolithic copper age cultures of the area Karanovo VI culture , Karanovo culture Gumelni a culture , Kodzadjemen culture and Varna culture , after a settlement hiatus in Northern Bulgaria. It bears some relationship to the earlier Cernavod culture Cernavod III culture to the north. Some settlements were fortified. The Ezero culture is interpreted as part of a larger Balkan Danubian early Bronze Age complex, a horizon reaching from Troy Id IIc into Central Europe, encompassing the Baden culture Baden of the Carpathian Basin and the Co ofeni culture of Romania . According to Parzinger, there are also typological connections to Poliochni IIa b and Sitagroi IV. Economy Agriculture is in evidence, along with domestic livestock. There is evidence of grape cultivation. Metallurgy was practiced. Interpretation Within the context of the Kurgan hypothesis, it would represent a fusion of native Old European culture and intrusive Kurgan culture elements. It could also represent an Anatolian influenced culture, either coming from Anatolia in Colin Renfrew, Baron Renfrew of Kaimsthorn Renfrew s hypothesis , or heading to Asia Minor.

Permission culture is a term often employed by Lawrence Lessig and other copyright activists to describe a society in which copyright restrictions are pervasive and enforced to the extent that any and all uses of copyrighted works need to be explicitly leased. This has both economic and social implications in such a society, copyright holders could require payment for each use of a work and, perhaps more importantly, permission to make any sort of derivative work . Permission culture also refers to the mentality assumed to be encouraged by copyright law in which people feel that there is a moral obligation to ask for permission before sharing others work, or before re using existing work as part of some new work. Lawrence Lessig describes permission culture in contrast with free culture . While permission culture describes a society in which previous creators or those with power must grant people permission to use material, free culture ensures that anyone is able to create without restrictions from the past. An example Lessig cites in his book, Free Culture book Free Culture , is photography. In this example, if the legal environment surrounding the early stages of photography had been stricter with what constituted ownership and leaned more towards permission culture, photography would have developed in a drastically different manner and would be limited. ref Lessig, Lawrence. Free Culture. The Penguin Group, 2003. ref An implication of permission culture is that creators are blocked by systemic procedures and this discourages innovation. Requiring permission in this sense ... would decide not to continue. ref http www.techdirt.com articles 20101227 09520712421 permission culture automated diminishment fair use.shtml ref This term is often contrasted with remix culture .
