Diversité de l’Orge (Hordeum vulgare L.) dans le Nord-Ouest du Bassin Méditerranéen occidental depuis 8 millénaires d’après l’analyse morphométrique …
2023
International audience; Le Néolithique voit la domestication de l'Orge au Proche-Orient et sa diffusion progressive jusque dans l'ouest du Bassin Méditerranéen. Elle y représente depuis une céréale majeure des systèmes agraires. Deux sous-espèces coexistent, Orge à 2 rangs (H. v. subsp.distichum) et à 6 rangs (H. v. subsp.vulgare), subdivisées en formes nues et vêtues, en lien avec des usages et caractéristiques agronomiques variés.Les dynamiques passées de cette diversité sont peu connues car les approches paléogénétiques qui permettraient de les appréhender sont fortement limitées par la carbonisation qui, tout en assurant la conservation de la plupart des grains archéologiques, détruit l…
Vegetation and firewood uses in the western Catalan plain from Neolithic to the Middle Age
2011
In this study is presented the synthesis of the results of the anthracological analysis in the western Catalan plain from the Neolithic to the Middle Ages. The data is evaluated in order to provide a preliminary approximation on the development of vegetation and forest exploitation. S. Vila is funded by a FI-DGR 2010 scholarship,granted by the Generalitat de Catalunya (AGAUR), in the framework of the projects HAR2008-05256, and SGR2009-198.
The Emergence of Arboriculture in the 1st Millennium BC along the Mediterranean’s “Far West”
2021
This paper presents the history of the introduction and expansion of arboriculture during the 1st millennium BC from the South of the Iberian Peninsula to the South of France. The earliest evidence of arboriculture at the beginning of the 1st millennium hails from the south of the Iberia from where it spread northward along the peninsula’s eastern edge. The different fruits (grape, olive, fig, almond, pomegranate and apple/pear) arrived together in certain areas in spite of uneven distribution and acceptance by local communities. Grape was the crop with the greatest diffusion. The greater diversity of crops in the southern half of the peninsula is also noteworthy. Their development paved th…
Gestión de los productos alimentarios en Lattara (Lattes, Francia), entre el 450 y el 400 a.n.e.
2009
International audience; En este trabajo se presenta una aproximación a la alimentación de los habitantes de la ciudad portuaria de Lattara durante la segunda mitad del siglo V a.n.e., principalmente a partir de los restos bioarqueológicos. Se examina cuales fueron los alimentos principales (cereales, leguminosas, frutos, carnes y pescados) y su utilización cotidiana. El estudio del estado en que se encontraban al llegar a la ciudad, su almacenamiento, preparación, consumo y gestión de los residuos generados, forma parte de una investigación que pretende combinar los diferentes datos arqueológicos relacionados con la naturaleza diversa de estos productos.; Ce travail présente une approche à …
The Origins of Millet Cultivation (Panicum miliaceum and Setaria italica) along Iberia’s Mediterranean Area from the 13th to the 2nd Century BC
2023
The introduction of the cultivation of millets (Panicum miliaceum and Setaria italica) along Iberia’s Mediterranean zone appears to stem from different origins which themselves hinged on their own specific historical developments. The earliest traces in the northeast, presumably of trans-Pyrenean origin, were brought to light in Bronze Age contexts (13th century BC) in Western Catalonia, notably in the Cinca River Valley. The different species of millets from southern and eastern Iberia, by contrast, come from later 10th–8th century BC contexts under Phoenician influence. Their expansion can be linked to the cultivation of fruit trees (vineyards and others) throughout the 9th–7th centuries …
Historical biogeography of olive domestication (Olea europaea L.) as revealed by geometrical morphometry applied to biological and archaeological mat…
2003
Aim This study intends to improve our understanding of historical biogeography of olive domestication in the Mediterranean Basin, particularly in the north-western area. Location Investigations were performed simultaneously on olive stones from extant wild populations, extant cultivated varieties from various Mediterranean countries, and archaeological assemblages of Spanish, French and Italian settlements. Methods A combination of morphometrics (traditional and geometrical) allowed us to study both the size and shape of endocarp structure. Concerning shape, a size-standardized method coupled with fitted polynomial regression analysis was performed. Results We found morphological criter…
