A white terracotta figurines production at the Genetoye site in Autun
2017
National audience; La fouille en 2014 d’un secteur du quartier artisanal de la Genetoye a permis de mettre au jour un riche et abondant mobilier de coroplastie. Composé de 190 individus, ce corpus, actuellement en cours d’étude, permet d’ores et déjà d’en savoir plus sur la production de figurine en terre cuite à la Genetoye et plus largement sur la ville d’Autun-Augustodunum.
Rurange-lès-Thionville (Lorraine, Moselle) : évolution architecturale, production et consommation végétale sur un petit établissement rural médiomatr…
2016
Archaeological surveys by test trenching and two preventive excavations of the Institut national de recherches archéologiques préventives (Inrap) in 2001 and 2008 preceding the construction of a housing area in Rurange-lès-Thionville (Lorraine, Moselle) allowed documenting and investigating a Gallo-Roman farmstead of modest size. This farmstead, covering a total surface of more than 7000 m², was composed of different buildings typical for a Gallo-Roman agricultural exploitation. The study of this building complex has allowed gaining remarkable results demonstrating the evolution of a Gallo-Roman farmstead from the Augustan-Tiberian period until its abandonment during the 4th century AD. The…
Dendroarchaeological contributions to the history of forest exploitation: the case of the Gallo-roman settlement of Oedenburg (Alsace, France) betwee…

International audience; Dendro-archaeological contribution to the history of forest exploitation. The case of the Gallo-Roman settlement of Oedenburg (Alsace, France) between 10 and 180 AD summary Dendrochronology has never been considered as simply a dating tool. In addition to the dates, which are always based on a regional scale signal, tree-ring series can provide information about forest structure and woodland development. Our study of the settlement of Oedenburg, established in the Rhine Limes of the Roman Empire, was conducted within this framework. The dated series provide a description of some structural aspects of oak-stands that were exploited for construction. In this aim, the a…
A fossil sea urchin from the Celtic site Goincet in the Forez (Poncins, dép. Loire) and a perspective at the meaning of ovum anguinum
2014
Dieser Artikel behandelt die neue Entdeckung eines versteinerten Seeigels in einem archäologischen Fundkontext. Das Exemplar weist die notwendigen Charakteristika auf, um seine Art und seine vermutete Herkunft genauer bestimmen zu können. Der fossile Seeigel wurde wahrscheinlich aus einer Entfernung von mehreren Hundert Kilometern herbeigebracht. Es wird auch sein archäologischer Kontext untersucht, der sich im Bereich einer Straße in einer protourbanen Besiedlung befindet. Die archäologische Schicht mit dem Seeigel wird an das Ende des 1. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. datiert. Weiterhin wurde eine forschungsgeschichtliche Bilanz der Funde von versteinerten Seeigeln in ihrem vorkeltischen, keltische…
Downfall of the domestic gods. A Discovery of Statues in a 3rd-century House in Entrains-sur-Nohain (Burgundy, France)
2021
Several stone statuettes of domestic gods have been discovered in houses in the Roman city of Intaranum, now Entrains (Nièvre), located in the north of the Aeduii territory. During an excavation carried out by INRAP in 2014-2015 in the northern part of the city, nine new statuettes were unearthed, some intact or barely damaged. The statuettes are of feminine or masculine deities, who sit and hold their knees, symbolising material welfare. Some statuettes come from in previously identified workshops. The data from both earlier and more recent excavations converge to date most of the statuettes to the 2nd half of the 2nd century CE. Abandoned during Late Antiquity, some of these artefacts wer…

Dix ans d'archéologie forestière dans le Châtillonnais (Côte-d'Or) : enclos, habitats, parcellaires
2010
National audience; Ces recherches sur les ensembles de structures de pierre sous forêt sont mises en œuvre depuis dix ans et sont inté- grées depuis 2003 dans le P.C.R. ‘Vix et son Environnement', dirigé par C. Mordant, S. Wirth et B. Chaume. Les vestiges étudiés sont implantés dans deux milieux géographiques distincts mais contigus : le plateau calcaire recouvert par la forêt domaniale de Châtillon, et les rebords de la Digeanne et du Brevon qui entaillent ce plateau à l'est et au sud. La prospection présente ici des caractères particuliers liés au couvert forestier. Les relevés G.P.S. sont intégrés dans un S.I.G. et constituent la base de cette étude, dans un va et vient…
Sanctuaries and rural settlements along the Roman road Lyon-Trier on the civitates of the Lingoni
2015
From a memory of a master on the study of the material from the sanctuary of Beire-le-Châtel "The Pâtis the Letto" as well as new studies such as material from the fanum Lux "Le Bois Giraud", the objective of this thesis is to understand the people who live along the Roman road Lyon - Trier on the civitates of the Lingoni et go on these places of worship. The material found in these sanctuaries was confronted with one of the rural settlements to distinguish local attendance and passing travelers. Finally, the study allows to emphasize the role of settlements - administrative center of the city and secondary towns - and communication routes in the genesis of Lingones’ places of worship but a…
Magnetic Prospecting of Diachronic Structures (Antiquity to First World War) on the Site of the Sanctuary of Ribemont-sur-Ancre (Somme, France)
2001
International audience; The site of the sanctuary of Ribemont-sur-Ancre (Somme, France) is of major scientific interest for the knowledge of the Celtic civilization in Europe. It also presents other peculiarities: two clearly identifiable periods of occupation-the first one as early as third century BC-to the second century AD and the second one from 1914-1918. In the area disrupted through military operations, the remains of several epochs are intermingled. In order to obtain a precise knowledge of the space time organisation of each occupation, a magnetic survey was carried out. The comparison of geophysical results with the aerial photographs shot during the war allows an exact determina…
Découverte d'un ex-voto particulier sur le site cultuel d'Essarois (Côte-d'Or) : un cas de polydactylie chez les Gallo-Romains ?
2011
During geo-archaeological research on the slope where the source associated with the Essarois (Côte-d'Or) cult site is located, in the locality of La Cave, an anatomic votive offering of a human foot was discovered in the alluvial sedimentary deposits. Carved from local oolitic limestone, it is rather crude in appearance but it is possible to make out that it has the unusual number of six toes. Although it may have been a blunder or the result of negligence by the sculptor, the phenomenon may equally have been a deliberate representation of a case of polydactyly, a malformation that was known in Antiquity.
