  • Micro-ecologies and economic strategies in Antiquity

    Open AccessAlexandra Bivolaru, Christophe MorhangeARTICLEArchaeofauna2026

    In this paper, we discuss possible waterscape exploitation of Razelm-Golovița lagoon system in Antiquity using a new paleo-environmental reconstruction and a revision of relative and absolute chronologies of the evolution of the southern Danube Delta in relation to the historical development of the Greek settlements of Orgame, Caraburun-Acic Suat and Istros. The sites are located in a highly dynamic fluvio-lagoonal environment with diverse physic…

  • The Submerged Pre‐Columbian Site of Fond Banane (Martinique, French West Indies)

    Open AccessMorgane Blanot, Frédérique Leroy et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2026Referencias: 6

    Late Holocene coastal dynamics in the Lesser Antilles remain poorly documented at the site scale, obscuring links between shoreline change and pre‐Columbian settlements. We integrate hyperbaric coring, RTK‐DGNSS mapping, granulometry, FTIR, portable‐XRF, biosedimentological analysis, and AMS 14 C dates to reconstruct the palaeoshoreline history of the submerged pre‐Columbian site of Fond Banane, Martinique. Sedimentary archives record a stable ve…

  • Coastal occupation and relative sea-level changes during Martinique’s Early Ceramic Period

    Morgane Blanot, Benoit Bérard et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Island and Coastal…2026Citada por: 1Referencias: 44

    While the uniformity of settlement dynamics at Martinique’s Early Ceramic sites is beyond dispute, it must be acknowledged that today’s North Atlantic coastlines of the island, characterized by subvertical cliffs and pebble beaches, are poorly suited for canoe landing and other coastal activities. Yet, from both cultural and economic perspectives, these inherently maritime populations remain intrinsically connected to the coast and the sea. Thus,…

  • Géoarchéologie portuaire de la cité de Cumes (Campanie, Italie)

    Christophe Morhange, Lise StefaniukARTICLEMéditerranée2023

    La reconstitution paléo-environnementale obtenue de l’étude bio-sédimentologique des carottages permet d’affirmer que Cumes (région napolitaine, Italie) possédait, grâce à la présence de la lagune de Licola au nord de la cité, un abri côtier susceptible d’être utilisé comme port protégé dès l’époque archaïque. Néanmoins ce dernier devait être difficile d’accès via un grau. La présence de barres d’avant côtes à fleur d’eau rendait l’accès au chena…

    Christophe Morhange, Jean-Louis Ballais et al.ARTICLEMéditerranée2022

    Pierre Gabert, ancien professeur de géomorphologie à la faculté d’Aix-en-Provence vient de nous quitter à l’âge de 95 ans. Il a marqué des générations d’étudiants par son dynamisme, son énergie bouillonnante, son dévouement pédagogique de quasi-missionnaire, sa verve intarissable et son franc-parler. On percevait assez facilement derrière son érudition scientifique et sa faconde méridionale, sautant d’un sujet à l’autre et d’un continent à l’autr…

  • Late Holocene relative sea‐level fluctuations and crustal mobility at Bataneh (Najirum) archaeological site, Persian Gulf, Iran

    Open AccessMajid Pourkerman, Nick Marriner et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2021Referencias: 4

    The impacts of relative sea‐level (RSL) variations and crust mobility on the development of ancient harbours in the northern Persian Gulf are poorly understood. Many unanswered questions remain with regard to the main reasons for a shift in the location of the most important ancient harbours in the northern part of the Persian Gulf coastal since 50 BC. Furthermore, some important early Islamic harbours, such as Siraf, have ancient city quarters t…

  • Millennial variability of rates of sea-level rise in the ancient harbour of Naples (Italy, western Mediterranean Sea)

    Open AccessMatteo Vacchi, Elda Russo Ermolli et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2020

    We reconstructed the late Holocene relative sea-level (RSL) evolution of the ancient harbour of Naples, one of the largest coastal conurbations in the Mediterranean. We carried out multiproxy investigations, coupling archaeological evidence with biological indicators. Our data robustly constrain 2000 yr of non-monotonic changes in sea level, chiefly controlled by the complex volcano-tectonic processes that characterize the area. Between ~200 BC a…

  • Halmyris

    Open AccessMatthieu Giaime, Gwenaël Magne et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2018Citada por: 1Referencias: 8

    In Northern Dobrogea, north of the Dunavăţ promontory, the Roman fortress of Halmyris was founded in the late 1st century AD on a Getic settlement dating to the middle of the 1st millennium BC, probably associated with a Greek emporium of the Classical and Hellenistic periods. At the time of the foundation of Halmyris, the Danube delta had already prograded several kilometres to the east leading to the progressive retreat of the sea and the forma…

  • Development and decline of the ancient harbor of Neapolis

    Open AccessValentino Di Donato, Maria Rosaria Ruello et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2018Citada por: 5Referencias: 4

    Archaeological excavations, undertaken since 2004 for the construction of the new Naples subway, have unearthed the harbor basin of the Greco–Roman town of Parthenope–Neapolis, furnishing scientists with the opportunity to recover abundant archaeological remains and a thick succession of diverse infill sediments. The latter underwent sedimentological, paleontological, and volcanological analyses. Compositional data analysis, applied to all three …

  • Geoarchaeological investigations at Akko, Israel

    Open AccessMatthieu Giaime, Christophe Morhange et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2018Citada por: 1Referencias: 1

    Since the first archaeological excavations undertaken in the 1970s/1980s, Tel Akko is known to have been an important trade city from the early 2nd millennium B.C. onwards. Even if the site has been intensively excavated, no paleoenvironmental studies looking to understand coastal changes near the tell since the Bronze Age had been undertaken until recently. Our research is based on the study of sediment cores drilled at the foot of the tell and …

  • The New Swedish Cyprus Expedition. Excavations at Hala Sultan Tekke (The Söderberg Expedition)

    In the seventh season at the Bronze Age city of Hala Sultan Tekke excavations continued in City Quarter 1 (CQ1) where georadar indicated stone structures to the south of the area excavated in 2010–2012. Massive domestic structures, which belong to three phases of occupation (Strata 1–3), were exposed. Both the most recent Stratum 1, and Stratum 2 were destroyed in a conflagration. The three phases are preliminarily dated to the 13th and 12th cent…
