Charcoal analysis and wood diameter: inductive and deductive methodological approaches for the study of firewood collecting practices

International audience; We present and discuss two approaches for evaluating the diameter of carbonized wood.Results from a theoretical model and its experimental validation shows that the proportions of diameter classes predicted by the model can be recognized. Even though the measured caliber classes do not correspond to the reality of the initial diameters, the measures were sufficiently different and reproductive to be discriminated through factorial analysis. These methods are promising for documenting cultural behavior of past peoples related to firewood use and management

Dynamiques spatio-temporelles de la vigne (Vitis vinifera) au cours de l’Holocène en France d’après les enregistrements archéobotaniques (graines et fruits, charbons de bois)

International audience; Le vin joue un rôle économique et culturel capital depuis l’âge du Fer en France. Dès cette époque, la viticulture s’implante dans le Midi méditerranéen puis va progressivement se diffuser dans la zone tempérée. L’archéologie a bien montré à quel point le Haut-Empire romain représente une étape clé dans cette diffusion (Poux et al. 2011). Cependant, les différents marqueurs à disposition de l’archéologie culturelle et spatiale (aménagements, structures, mobiliers) sont généralement limités à des fenêtres chrono-géographiques particulières. Changeant en fonction du contexte technique, culturel et environnemental, aucun ne permet véritablement de suivre l’expansion de …

Bronze Age firewood exploitation in south eastern Iberia: a study focusing on wood diameter estimation

Crémations et monument funéraire campaniformes à Genlis « le Nicolot » (Côte-d'Or, France)

The building of the high-speed rail track linking the Rhine to the Rhone led to the discovery of two Bell Beaker burials in an Iron Age cemetery located in the plain to the east of Dijon. The Tilles plain is an alluvial environment, shaped by the valleys of the Tille and the Ouche and populated since Late Prehistory, particularly during the Bell Beaker and Early Bronze periods, which have yielded settlements located on the rivers. These burials are the first funerary features discovered in the area.The two Bell Beaker cremation burials excavated at Genlis "le Nicolot" are remarkable, as still too little is known of the funerary practices of the period in the east of France and in particular…
