L'habitat néolithique récent de Geispolsheim "Forlen" (Bas-Rhin) : contribution à la périodisation de la culture de Munzingen et à l'étude de ses rel…
2011
The recent Neolithic site of Forlen in Geispolsheim, attributed to the recent Munzingen, has yielded a series of enclosures containing ceramic forms unprecedented in the context of Munzingen B. We have detected the influence of late productions by the Pfyn culture and propose the identification of a new stage in the recent Munzingen, which we have unoriginally named Munzingen C, and is typified by the appearance of ceramic forms with rounded profiles. This episode may date from around 3650-3550 BC, a late dating that has been confirmed by two carbon 14 tests. The discovery allows a strong claim to be made that ancient trading networks that linked the Rhine Valley with the Swiss Plateau and …

Dendrochronologie : potentialités et nouveaux enjeux pour l’archéologie préventive
2019
International audience; La dendrochronologie, méthode de datation qui étudie la variation des largeurs des cernes de croissance des arbres, est sollicitée, en archéologie, pour l’obtention d’une date absolue. Elle nécessite un dialogue incontournable entre les différents acteurs de la discipline pour fiabiliser les acquisitions, voire tout simplement obtenir une date. L’analyse des bois archéologiques ne se limite toutefois pas à la seule datation et constitue le point de départ de nouvelles approches qui permettent de combler des espaces et des champs de recherche encore lacunaire, pour le sud de la France notamment. Dans le contexte des changements climatiques actuels, la dendrochronologi…
Interfaces volume 39: "Gestures and their Traces"
2018
International audience; This, the first of two volumes featuring the topic of gestures, presents a selection of essays published in the wake of the Interfaces conference that was held at Université de Bourgogne (Dijon, France) in June 2017 (“Gestures in Texts and the Visual Arts”). Volumes 39 and 40 inaugurate a new phase in the publishing history of the journal as we are moving from print to digital publication.The present collection brings together contributions that encompass philosophical analysis, media archaeology and artistic experimentation with a bent for anthropology, art history and intermediality. They emphasize the reconstructive nature of critical and artistic enquiry when dea…

Micro-Raman study of red decorations in French faiences of the 18th and 19th centuries
2006
Obtaining the red color was a technical and economic challenge for the French faience manufactories in the 18th and 19th centuries. The tendency of the red hematite to turn into drab brown during the firing process explains the difficulty in obtaining this color. Red decorations in shards coming from the four production centers of faience manufacturing during this period—Rouen (northwest), Nevers (central), Thiviers (southwest) and Argonne (northeast)—have been studied by means of micro-Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Among them, Thiviers appears to be the leader thanks to a particular reddish sandstone called ‘Gres de T…
Approches quantitatives de la production de fer sur le site hallstattien de Bragny-sur-Saône (Saône-et-Loire)
2007
This study is based on an inventory of iron knives dated from the 8th to the 5th centuries BC and discovered in funerary and settlement sites in the South-West of France. The corpus consists of 608 artefacts. We established a typology allowing us to present a chronological and spatial distribution of each type. We then tried to determine the functions of the knives according to their type and their length. For those discovered in graves other objects in the grave assemblage were used as an additional criterion. When the funerary context was very clearly defined, we tried to determine the function, in the grave itself, of the knives.
