OCCUPATIONS DOMESTIQUE ET FUNÉRAIRE DE L'ÂGE DU FER À LAVAU (AUBE)
2007
Dieser Artikel stellt die Ergebnisse einer Rettungsgrabung (Inrap) vor, die in der Gemeinde Lavau im Departement Aube durchgeführt wurde. Zwei unterschiedliche Besiedlungen konnten klar identifi ziert werden : ein Teil eines Bauernhofs aus der späten Bronze-/ frühen Hallstattzeit sowie eine kleine Nekropole aus der Mittellatènezeit. Während der Bauernhof typisch für einen ländlichen Betrieb dieser Zeit ist, unterscheidet sich die Nekropole von dem, was man erwarten würde. Ihre Lage, ihre Organisation, sowie manche Bestattungsbräuche sind aussergewöhnlich.
Formalization of scientific process and conceptual modelling for the study of territorial and products distribution dynamics (ArchaeDyn II programme)
2012
International audience; The ArchaeDyn team has investigated territorial dynamics by comparing areas over long time spans between the Neolithic and Modern times. Datasets on various themes have been shared and indicators and analytical models produced. This paper presents both the formalization of the scientific process used in the ArchaeDyn programme and a conceptual model of the systems and components so that synchronic and diachronic comparisons can be made. The aim is to clarify the transition from an archaeological feature (a site or an artefact) or a recording unit (survey area) as the input, to the characterization of spaces describing a system as the output. The approach is described…
Le Vignaud 3, Chemin du Puits Neuf (Langlade, Gard) : du Fontbouisse au Campaniforme : premiers résultats
2008
Excavations at the site of Le Vignaud 3, Langlade, situated at the heart of the Vaunage, have revealed a settlement constructed in dry stone which fits perfectly within the local Fontbouisse tradition (as exemplified at Boussargues, Le Rocher-du-Causse, etc.). As well as being of architectural interest, particularly in relation to the internal organisation of enclosed sites, the site also produced a large number of finds (pottery, lithics, animal bones, etc.) which provide evidence of Fontbouisse culture and Bell Beaker occupation. The stratigraphic evidence relating these two cultures, and the results of the preliminary analysis of the finds, provide new evidence concerning the adoption of…
La céramique Rhin-Suisse-France orientale de Passy "Richebourg Ouest" : un ensemble du Bronze final IIB dans l'Yonne
2010
A 1994 archaeological evaluation at Passy «Richebourg» (Yonne) brought to light a pit containing material dating to the second period of the Late Bronze Age. The typochronological analysis of this material has dated it to the Bronze final IIb (well-known period in the East of France). This work is part of a number of short papers allowing us to work on the precise dating of this second period of the Late Bronze Age in the Yonne area.
Maisons-en-Champagne (Marne). 6 rue de Flancourt [notice archéologique]
2019
L’opération de diagnostic fait suite à un projet de construction d’un pavillon individuel en plein cœur du village. Bien que limitée à la fois par la superficie (1 200 m²) et par les différentes contraintes rencontrées sur le terrain, cette opération a mis au jour vingt-trois structures dont plusieurs se rapportent à la fin du Moyen Âge et à l’époque moderne. Les types d’occurrences (cellier, fondations, fosses, peut-être silos…) suggèrent des occupations domestiques le long de la rue de Flancourt [...]
Fleurey-sur-Ouche (Côte-d’Or). Maison de santé [notice archéologique]
2019
Une troisième fouille, dans un même secteur au centre du village de Fleurey-sur-Ouche, a pu compléter les informations déjà récoltées suite aux différentes opérations menées depuis 2015. La fouille, sur une surface de 2 745 m2, a mis au jour une occupation dense, constituée principalement de structures en creux pour la première phase du Moyen Âge central ; la seconde phase est, elle, matérialisée par des bâtiments dotés de caves, remblayées, selon les premières observations, au XIIIe s.

Configurations spatiales et hiérarchiques du peuplement antique : des indicateurs quantitatifs pour une confrontation interrégionale.
2011
The increase or decrease of the number of settlements is frequently used to assess the interactions between ancient societies and their environment. Beside this quantitative indicator, the pattern and the spatial extent of a settlement are crucial to estimate the " human pressure " on the environment. Within the ArchaeDyn program, several quantitative indicators have been developed to characterise the spatial and hierarchical structure of a settlements' scatter. The application of these indicators in four regions of Southern and Central Gaul shows the evolution of the spatial and hierarchical configurations of the settlement through phases of increasing and reducing rates of occupation.
SimFeodal: an agent-based model to explore the combined effects of social and demographic changes on the hierarchy of rural settlement patterns in No…
2019
International audience; In North-Western Europe, regional settlement patterns that were dispersed in 800 CE became much more concentrated and hierarchical in 1200 CE (Tannier et al. 2014). This phenomenon occurred in all regions but the resulting level of concentration and hierarchy of settlement patterns differed notably among the regions. Several processes jointly explain this major transition (Cura et al. 2017). •The dismantling of the Carolingian Empire and the dissipation of powers induced struggles among lords and thus a rise in violence. The result of this was the creation of castles as well as an increase of the need of protection for peasant households•The militarisation of the soc…
Life beyond the camp : rethinking return, reconstruction and women's expression of lived experiences in Northern Uganda
2015
The conflict in Northern Uganda is recognized as having come to an end with the signing of a cessation of hostilities agreement between the Lord’s Resistance Army and the Government of Uganda in August 2006, which resulted in improved security. Estimates suggest that the majority of the displaced populations have left their camps and moved either to transit sites near farms or to their village of origin. Much research has been done on the living conditions of women in the Ugandan IDP camps yet very little has been written on the situation for women who return home or resettle after the camp. This study aims at understanding the gender specific challenges of formerly conflict-displaced women…
