Sidi Zin Archaeological Project
The Sidi Zin Archaeological Project aims to bridge understanding of the Acheulean-Middle Stone Age transition in northern Tunisia, a relatively understudied region in the context of hominin evolution. The Sidi Zin locality will provide chronological, palaeoenvironmental, geomorphological and cultural insights into Acheulean and Middle Stone Age occupations in Tunisia
Logiques pastorales du Maghreb holocène extraites d'une anthropologie de l'image
The concept of the anthropology of image is tested on visual representa- tions from the Atlas range of the Maghreb during the Middle Holocene . The objective is to identify unsuspected symbolic behavio urs. By applying this interpretative model to the analysis of visual representations from the transition period between a hunter-gatherer economy and a food - producing economy, i.e. the 6th-4th millennia cal BC, this approach, which invites the di…
The status of minority species and young individuals of the terrestrial malacofauna in Capsian and Neolithic populations in eastern Maghreb
The rammadiyet (or “escargotières”) in the Eastern Maghreb are enormous shell-midden complexes made by people during the Capsian Epipalaeolithic and the Neolithic. Mollusc assemblages in all rammadiyet are dominated by between one to four land snail species. Other, rarer – minority - species, and young land snails are present in all these sites. Of these minority and young molluscs, only large species, such as Cornu aspersum, could have contribut…
New insights into the late Middle Stone Age occupation of Oued el Akarit, southern Tunisia
This article reports on a new project to investigate the activities of early Homo sapiens in the area of the Chotts ‘megalake’ in southern Tunisia. Excavations in 2015 and 2019 at Oued el Akarit revealed one of a number of Middle Stone Age (MSA) horizons near the top of a long sequence of Upper Pleistocene deposits. The site identified as Oued el Akarit ( Sondage 8 ) consists of lithic artefacts, bone fragments of large ungulates and pieces of os…
Changing Plant-based Subsistence Practices among Early and Middle Holocene Communities in Eastern Maghreb
The eastern Maghreb is a key area for understanding environmental and cultural dynamics during the early and middle Holocene. Capsian populations from around 10000–7500 cal BP were among the last foragers in the region. Capsian sites are known as escargotières (land shell middens), and locally called rammadiyat (meaning ashy mound). As taphonomic conditions in Capsian open-air sites generally favour the preservation of resistant materials such as…

Plaquettes gravées
Introduction Les plaquettes gravées provenant des sites préhistoriques des régions septentrionales de l’Afrique du Nord (Paléolithique supérieur, Epipaléolithique et Néolithique), n’ont pas encore livré tout leur potentiel sémantique. On admet que la plaquette a « servi à l’exécution d’un décor ou à l’expression d’une pensée par des aménagements qui ont entraîné une modification dans son aspect initial ou sa forme naturelle » (Camps-Fabrer 1966, …

Ouchtata (Tunisie ; Préhistoire)
Le domaine lithique préhistorique épipaléolithique et néolithique de l’Afrique du Nord a retenu dans ses répertoires technologiques le site d’Ouchtata. C’est en effet là, en Tunisie septentrionale, que fut reconnue une caractéristique concernant un aménagement particulier et original des supports lamellaires et de leurs dérivés microlithiques* et géométriques. Ce procédé technique serait sans équivalent européen. Quant aux recherches étendues au …
Œuf d’autruche (Coquille)
Lotfi Belhouchet 1 La famille des Struthionids, ou autruches, ne renferme qu'une seule espce et plusieurs sous-espces ; seuls le degr de calvitie de la tte et du cou ainsi que la couleur des parties nues, permettent de les distinguer. En Afrique du Nord, au moins deux sousespces auraient exist au cours des priodes prhistoriques : il s'agit de l'autruche commune (Struthio camelus camelus Linn) dont les parties nues sont de couleur rouge et l'autru…
L’économie de subsistance dans la cuvette de Meknassy (Sidi Bouzid, Tunisie centrale) durant l’Holocène d’après l’étude malacologique
Malacological studies using land-snail shells found on archaeological sites are very scarce in the Maghreb, although such remains are the main constituent of Holocene sites known locally as rammadiyet. In this paper, the open-air prehistoric sites studied belong to the Upper Capsian culture. The Capsian culture is one of the Epipalaeolithic cultures found in the Maghreb and is inherent to Tunisia and eastern Algeria. Capsian open-air sites are hu…
