An integrative study of new environmental and cultural data from the Hoabinhian of Laang Spean Cave (Cambodia) including modern human remains
Although the Hoabinhian culture is renowned for its unifacial pebble tools and its discovery dates back more than a century, only a handful of sites provide complete information on this period. The site of Laang Spean, in Cambodia, has recently been described as a burial cave for the Neolithic period, but it was previously known as an emblematic Hoabinhian site for Cambodia. More comprehensive studies indicate that it offers a wide window onto th…

Cladistics with geometric morphometric data
Ces 30 dernières années, plusieurs protocoles permettant d’utiliser des données 3D de morphométrie géométrique en cladistique ont été proposés. Fortement critiqués, ces protocoles ne sont qu’occasionnellement utilisés en paléoanthropologie, malgré le potentiel évident d’une telle approche. Dans cette étude, nous avons testé deux protocoles différents afin d’évaluer l’information phylogénétique dérivée des données de morphométrie géométrique, que …
Dental modification techniques in Neolithic and modern Cambodia
Multifactorial approach to describe early diagenesis of bones
The excavation of the Merovingian cemetery of Saint-Linaire (France) was an opportunity to describe the completeness of the tombs preserved from soil erosion. An anthropobiological study was carried out on the osteological material and the different categories of graves. On the basis of a complete archaeo-anthropological corpus we have undertaken an analysis of the differential preservation of the bones according to the different archaeobiologica…
Application de la Cladistique aux données de morphométrie géométrique. Application aux genres Pongo, Gorilla, Pan et Homo
Au cours des 30 dernières années, plusieurs protocoles d’intégration de données 3D de morphométrie géométrique en cladistique ont été proposés. Fortement critiqués, ces protocoles ne sont qu’occasionnellement utilisés en paléontologie, malgré leur évident potentiel. Dans l’étude proposée ici, nous avons testé deux protocoles différents pour analyser 23 unités taxonomiques opérationnelles (UTO) représentant les genres Pongo, Gorilla, Pan, Australo…

Prehistoric Unity and Diversity of Java and Sumatra The comparison of the archaeological records of Java and Sumatra allows to present a preliminary assessment defining future researches to be implemented in order to address major questions such as the origin of the “ Austronesians”. The geographical fates of both islands are different for modern humans and obviously played an important role, shared or separated, in the history and prehistory of …
Solo man in question
Préhistoires au sud du Triangle d’or
À la marge des mondes indiens et chinois, territoire essentiel pour la compréhension des origines de l’homme et des peuplements anciens, carrefour migratoire pour la faune asiatique, le nord de la Thaïlande offre des conditions favorables à la conservation des vestiges du passé. Autant de raisons qui ont suscité les recherches récentes menées par la mission paléolithique franco-thaïe et dont le présent volume constitue une première synthèse. Au f…
Discovery of new open-air Paleolithic localities in Central Alborz, Northern Iran
Lames du Néolithique dans les carrières de Nan (Nord de la Thaïlande)
Les séries lithiques de surface des carrières de Nan (Nord de la Thaïlande) se distinguent du paysage archéologique régional par la densité impressionnante de pierres taillées rencontrées mais également, par la présence d'une production de lames. Dans cette aire géographique, le phénomène laminaire revêt un caractère original et même inattendu pour ce qui est de la période Néolithique. L'analyse typo-technologique des lames de Nan permet de décri…

Morphological description, biometry and phylogenetic position of the skull of Ngawi 1 (east Java, Indonesia)
The skull of Ngawi 1 was discovered fortuitously in August 1987 on the left bank of the river Solo near the village of Selopuro (east Java, Indonesia). It is a complete, well preserved and strongly mineralized calvaria. The present article provides a complete description of this specimen. Its general morphological pattern is first considered; then, each anatomical complex is considered individually, allowing us a comparison with other Asian Pleis…

Révision de l'espèce Homo erectus (Dubois, 1893)
The hypodigm for Homo erectus is a problem which remains unresolved. Most disagreements are based on chronological rather than morphological data. A methodology based neither on simple global similarity nor on chronological position is required to clarify taxonomical questions. Therefore the identification of apomorphic features for Homo erectus has to be tried. The first step is to seek criteria allowing to define this species as a clade or as a…

Moghanak, Otchounak, Garm Roud 2
The French-Iranian Paleoanthropological Project (FIPP) conducted in 2005 a survey in the provinces of Teheran and Mazandaran (Northern Iran), which are almost virgin zone of paleolithic discoveries. The FIPP discovered three open-air localities in an alluvial context. The Moghanak and Otchounak localities delivered 59 artifacts collected on surface, attributed to Mousterian or ante-Mousterian. These assemblages showed conceptions of different tec…

Dia Shoma (Mali), a medieval cemetery in the inner Niger delta
The aim of this paper is to compare burial typology from Dia Shoma medieval cemetery (Mali) with previously documented funerary practices of the inner Niger delta in order to expand our knowledge of the mortuary rituals once practised in this region. Considering archaeological resources from an anthropological viewpoint provides us with new information about human migration, settlement, cultural affiliation and way of life. From this point of vie…

Une usure dentaire différentielle chez les Néandertaliens
L'existence d'une usure plus prononcée des incisives par rapport aux dents jugales sur certains fossiles néandertaliens a été avancée par plusieurs auteurs. Cette existence présumée est à l'origine de l'hypothèse d'une utilisation particulière des dents antérieures chez les Néandertaliens. Or, ce comportement singulier aurait une grande implication culturelle. Pour étudier ce phénomène il convient de définir parfaitement l'usure dentaire. Comme p…

Prospections paléolithiques et perspectives technologiques pour redéfinir le hoabinhien du Nord de la Thaïlande (campagnes 2002-2005)
Field research conducted in 2002-2005 in the North of Thailand by the "Thai- French Paleolithic Mission" has led to the discovery of new prehistorical sites dating to the Hoabinhian period - the oldest ones (situated in the Tham Lot area) dating back to more than 20,000 years. The findings provide new data concerning the tools of the final stage of the Paleolithic period in the Far East and open new pespectives on the technological identity of th…
