La Tene human burial and animal deposit at Varennes-sur-Seine (Seine-et-Marne)
2002
An adolescent was buried at the bottom of a large irregular shaped pit The body that had been lain on one side, legs tucked under, was in the centre of a ring of stones and was covered by a deposit of a dog and four horses of which two were foals and two were young adults. A thick layer of sand and a second deposit of three horses and a dog covered this first deposit. The adolescent skull had been broken and perforated which adds to the distinctiveness of this burial. Most of the horses had been skinned and the tendons had been removed. Also the four legs of one of the horses in the top deposit had been removed. With no datable finds the radiocarbon analysis gives a date corresponding to th…
Les animaux de la nécropole gallo-romaine de Vertault (Côte d'Or, France)
2007
The skeletons, partial skeletons and isolated bones of 200 dogs, 42 horses, eight sheep and two cattle were recovered at the animal necropolis of Vertault, situated south of the fortifi ed rampart belonging to the Gaulish-Roman village on an incompletely examined stretch of land. Because archaeological fi nds were lacking, three 14C analyses were conducted on horse bone material to provide chronological identifi cation, which dated the faunal remains to the 1st century AD. All of the animals are males. Although the horses are fully mature and some of them very old, the dogs and sheep are all young animals. These animals, some of which show clear evidence on the skull of violent death, were …

Des sacrifices sans consommation : les dépôts d'animaux non consommés en Gaule romaine
2002
International audience; À la période romaine, des dépôts d'animaux sont effectués dans des lieux relativement isolés, à l'écart des villes ou à proximité de certaines agglomérations. Ces dépôts dans des fosses ou des puits concernent des animaux non consommés, déposés entiers et sélectionnés en fonction de leur sexe et leur âge. Ils sont parfois accompagnés de certains objets particuliers, comme des vases miniatures ou des couteaux, qui peuvent être considérés comme des offrandes et qui montrent alors que nous ne sommes pas en présence d'une pratique profane, l'enfouissement d'un animal pouvant intervenir dans bien des circonstances et répondre à bien des préoccupations, comme de se débarra…

L'homme et l'animal dans les fosses du Mormont (Eclépens, Vaud, Suisse, vers 100 av. notre ère)
2018
International audience; Le site protohistorique du Mormont, encore en cours de fouille, est caractérisé par la présence de plusieurs centaines de fosses, la plupart cylindriques, creusées dans la moraine recouvrant le socle calcaire d’une colline qui se présente comme une place forte naturelle, mais dépourvue de fortification. Son étendue (plus de 5 ha), sa topographie complexe, la richesse du mobilier et le caractère très bref de sa fréquentation ne permettent pas d’établir d’analogie avec les sites déjà connus en Europe occidentale. A côté d’un mobilier riche et diversifié (céramique, outils en fer, bijoux, vaisselle en bronze, déchets d’activité, meules…), ces fosses recèlent des restes …
Fast prototyping of parallel image processing applications using functional skeletons
1999
We present SKiPPER, a software dedicated to the fast prototyping of vision algorithms on MIMD/DM platforms. This software is based upon the concept of algorithmic skeletons, i.e. higher order program constructs encapsulating recurring forms of parallel computations and hiding their low-level implementation details. Examples of such skeletons in low- to mid-level image processing include such as geometric decompositions, data or task farming. Each skeleton is given an architecture-independant functional (but executable) specification, a portable implementation as a process template and an analytic performance model. The source program is a purely functional specification of the algorithm in …
Les squelettes : structures d'interaction directe et intuitive avec des formes 3D
2014
The interactions in shape creation graphic applications are far from natural. The user tends to avoid as much as possible such applications and prefer to sketch or model his/her shape.To bridge this widening gap between computer and the general public, we focus on skeletons. They are intuitive shape representation models that we propose to use as direct and intuitive interaction structures.All skeletons suffer from very low quality as shape representation models, concerning the geometry of the shape they capture, the quantity of skeletal noise they contain or the lack of useful organization of their elements. Moreover, some functionalities that must be granted to skeletons are only partiall…
TRAIL signalling regulation by ezrin
2011
Background and Aim: TRAIL has sparked a growing interest in oncology due to its ability to selectively trigger cancer cell death while sparing normal cells. The Fas/actin association through ezrin, a member of the ERM protein family, has been reported to regulate early steps of Fas-mediated apoptosis. In this project, we addressed the role of ezrin regarding TRAIL-induced cell death in B lymphoma cell lines, or adherent cancer cell lines (HeLa WT, HCT116, SW480). Methods: Molecular and biochemical approaches were employed to study the relevance of ezrin and its phosphorylation status in TRAIL signaling. Results: We found that ezrin displays a negative function towards TRAIL- and Fas-mediate…
