Cartographie des restes osseux et conservation différentielle dans l'amas coquillier d'Ouessant "Mez Notariou": du Bronze moyen à la période romaine
2008
This article addresses the impacts of differential preservation in an alkaline shell midden (fig. 1) overlying an acid soil which does not allow bone to survive. This midden accumulated over an extended period and displays unusual traits attributable to practices of a ritual nature (Le Bihan et Méniel, 2002). Excavation extended to approximately 1000 square metres (fig. 2). Bone was collected on a quarter-metre grid by individual context (fig. 3). Some 35,000 animal and bird bones were recovered; fish bones, which were very numerous, are presently still under study. Consideration of the entire bone assemblage (fig. 8) indicates that the principal deposition occurred along the SW/NE axis of …

Les collections protohistoriques au musée de Lons-le-Saunier, Centre de Conservation et d’étude René Rémond
2020
Since its creation in 1817, the Lons-le-Saunier museum has been intended to house all the archaeological objects unearthed in the Jura department. Even if some collections are not included, the reserves contain most of the finds from the Jura. Protohistory plays an important role, with emblematic sites such as the Planches cave or the Chavéria necropolis. However, these collections have different legal statuses: collections listed in the museum's inventory (old collections and recent acquisitions) and collections kept in the museum but whose entry has not been regularised. With the aim of building a new museum, a vast project must be carried out in order to make the necessary acquisitions a…
Vix, Ca’ Morta : deux chars du type « à caisse exhaussée »
2022
Vix and CA’ MORTA: two wagons of “raised box” type - The wagon from the burial ground at Ca’ Morta (Como), the subject of a recent reexamination by the author, constitutes a significant social maker. It is highly likely to be a wagon of “raised box” type of the Hallstatt period, similar to the vehicle discovered in the princely burial of Vix. Its presence in a Golasecca context is somewhat incongruous and highlights the importance of exchange between elites on both sides of the Alps.

Submersed in the water, buried in the ground: comparative studies on metal assemblages and single finds from french Iron Age non-funerary contexts (V…
2020
Metal hoards are emblematic discoveries of European protohistoric societies and therefore an extremely dynamic research theme. However, even though there are many synthetic studies concerning Bronze Age practices, they are much less frequent concerning Iron Age deposits. In fact, since 1995 (Kurz 1995), no synthetic inventory on this subject had been carried out despite the regular increase in the number of discoveries since the development and multiplication of preventive archaeological excavations. Under these conditions, it seemed important to update the data and this led to the completion of a master's degree on this subject in 2011 (Le Cozanet 2011). Since then, our research hasn‘t cea…
Producing and working with iron
2019
Combining archaeological studies and archaeometric analyses, this synthesis presents the importance of the iron economy in the eastern part of the Paris Basin from the First Iron Age to the early Middle Ages. The first contributions of this research project concern technological changes in the production system of iron objects. The attention paid to the share of recycling in production somewhat modifies the previous discourse in attempts to quantify the types of forged objects (tools, weapons, ornaments, etc). Additionally, the link between the status of the excavated sites (agricultural holding, rural hamlet, fortified site, large settlements) and the type of forging activity that was carr…
Fusayolas de la necrópolis de Olival do Senhor dos Mártires (Alcácer do Sal, Portugal) : tipología, función y simbolismo
2018
La presencia de un conjunto significativo de fusayolas entre los ajuares de la necrópolis de la Edad del Hierro de Olival do Senhor dos Mártires (Alcácer do Sal, Portugal) plantea cuestiones de gran interés sobre los límites entre la función de estos elementos y su significado simbólico y escatológico. En este estudio se abordan esas cuestiones, analizando por un lado las características físicas, tecnológicas y morfológicas de las piezas, y por otro los posibles códigos simbólicos y religiosos que las convierten en elementos integrales del ajuar funerario en distintas comunidades del sur peninsular.
