A PHOENICIAN COFFIN
The Phoenicians buried their dead in a variety of ways. One of these was to put the corpse inside a coffin. Fashioned in wood, terracotta, stone, and marble, coffins consisted of a casket and a lid, and were often shaped like a human figure, a practice that was very popular in pharaonic Egypt. The coffin on display here was found at Ghar Barka on the outskirts of Rabat (Malta) in 1797. Lead poured inside the grooves on the side of the coffin was meant to hold the lid firmly in place.
In the Phoenician homeland, members of the royal family were buried in similar coffins, often re-using ones brought over from Egypt. They would have inscriptions written on the lids to curse anyone who disturbed their eternal sleep.
(Le Corbusier, 1956-1958)
The Internationale Bauausstellung, or International Architecture Exhibition, is a German project carried out with the purpose of introducing new concepts in architecture and urban engineering. In 1957 it was organised in Berlin. In its framework the Hansaviertel area, located next the Tiergarten Park in West Berlin, was thoroughly redeveloped. Only world-famous architects (Alvar Aalto, Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, Oscar Niemeyer, Max Taut, Pierre Vago and many others) were invited to participate.
Le Corbusier had realised his concept of Unité d'Habitation for the first time in 1947-1952 in Marseille. It was a must for the organizers of Interbau to have one of such 'machines for living' in Berlin as well. However, the building that Le Corbusier designed for Berlin was too big to fit into the Hansaviertel quarter. Eventually it was built on a small hill near the 1936 Olympic Stadium.
All the five Unités d'Habitation that Le Corbusier designed are characterised by neutral aesthetics, the standardisation of units and an ingenious spatial configuration of these units. The flats of the Berlin building are usually located on two storeys. The entrances to them are from ten corridors, or 'internal streets', which are not only a space for circulation but also for socialisation. In the housing block there is also a kindergarten, a medical facility, several recreational spaces and a garden. It is a 'city within a city', bringing people's every-day needs and activities into the housing block. The Corbusierhaus is also an example of the idea of the 'vertical garden city'. A specific landscaping concept was designed to create a green belt around the building. The building nowadays rises between large trees, its colourful verandas visible from the distance.
The Corbusierhaus differs from the Unité d'Habitation of Marseille in many respects. First, the German building regulations at the time prohibited the use of the Modulor, the antropomorphic scale of proportions that Le Corbusier had developed and regularly used. The regulations made the dwelling units substantially bigger here than Le Corbusier had intended (e.g., floor height 2.5 m instead of 2.26 m). Secondly, the Berlin building is bigger, containing 530 flats in 5 types as opposed to the 337 flats in 23 types in Marseille. Thirdly, in Marseille the upper floors were used by shops, restaurants, bars, laundries and hotels. In Berlin, on the other hand, again because of the limitations imposed by legal regulations, a big shop that was planned could only be placed among the pillars of the ground floor.

In Mapuche cosmic symbolism the Pillán is an antropomorphic figure which guides the people in the different elements of nature, life and death. Pillán is a spirit protector or benefactor for each Mapuche person and is said to be connected to the souls of Mapuche ancestors, the spirits of glorified ancestors are personified in the Pillán.
En la cosmovisión mapuche el pillán es una representación antropomorfa asociada a la existencia de espíritus que rigen los distintos elementos de la naturaleza, la vida y la muerte de los seres humanos. Al pillán se lo vincula con las almas de los antepasados y como un espíritu protector del pueblo mapuche.
