Contextes spatiaux et transformation du système de peuplement: approche comparative et prédictive

2011

We propose a method to identify and simulate settling choices Roman rural settlements using predictive modeling, based on the method developed in the 1990s by F.-P. Tourneux within the Archaeomedes project to characterize and compare the environmental contexts of Roman rural settlements in several areas of southern France. We have developped the model for three regions with very different topographical conditions : The Vaunage region (Languedoc, France), the Argens-Maures region (Provence, France) and Zuid-Limburg (Netherlands).
