La cuisine d’une maison de maître du Haut-Empire à Grand (Vosges)
2013
During excavations conducted in 2011 in Grand (Vosges), a domus dating from the 2nd century and the first half of the 3rd was uncovered. Among the well-preserved vestiges a kitchen was identified with its cooking installations still in situ. These consisted of a hearth, a raised cooking platform and an oven. The kitchen was probably in use for both the residential and the servant’s quarters of the domus. The sediments linked to the use of the kitchen yielded numerous organic remains and pottery sherds dating from the 3rd century. These finds document, at least partially, the kitchenware in use, diet and waste management practices in use in this household. The kitchen stands out as a place t…

Scheren werden häufig als multifunktionale Geräte aufgefasst, deren genauere Bestimmung schwer einzugrenzen ist. Jedoch geben deren Form und technische Eigenschaften über die vorgesehene Verwendung Aufschluss. Es ist also möglich, eine neue Gliederung dieser Objekte vorzunehmen, und zwar anhand der Funktion, die sie am besten zu erfüllen scheinen. Diese Einteilung der Scheren aus den Nekropolen der Treverer wird durch die jeweils begleitenden anderen Grabbeigaben verifiziert. Das Beispiel der Scheren aus den Gräbern der Treverer macht es zudem möglich, diese Stücke anhand der sonstigen Beigaben einerseits in die Technikgeschichte und andererseits in die Sozialgeschichte einzuordnen.
A monumental schola discovered on the Boulevard Frédéric-Latouche in Augustodunum/Autun (Saône-et-Loire)
2013
In 2011, an archaeological evaluation was carried out in the centre of the Roman city of Augustodunum (Autun) on a plot of over 1 ha. This operation afforded the opportunity to explore parts of two insulae along the main street, the so-called cardo maximus, an area that has benefited from recent advances in knowledge. The first insula hosts a high-status domus strongly resembling those of "Balbius Iassus" and the "Étui d’Or", excavated in the vicinity in the 1970s; the second, addressed in this paper, contains the remains of a vast monumental complex covering approximately 900 m2. Most probably built at the beginning of the 2nd c. on the ruins of earlier houses, it was thoroughly restructur…
