Les restes culinaires de Cuccuru is Arrius (Oristano, Sardaigne)
Although considered a real crossroads on the route of the first waves of migration of Neolithic societies, until now Sardinia has delivered very little data about these colonisation processes. Situated in the Gulf of Oristano, on the western coast of the island, the Middle Neolithic locus of the site of Cuccuru is Arrius thus constitutes a precious archaeological record for a better understanding of settlement modes in the Thyrrenian Islands. Thi…
Récents acquis sur la circulation préhistorique de l'obsidienne en Corse
Obsidian represents one of the best markers for exchanges between prehistoric communities. In the Western Mediterranean, Corsica has a particular situation: although more than 100 km from the nearest obsidian source, the island received important quantities of obsidian, especially during the 4th millennium BC. Indeed, for that period, there were thousands of these obsidian items, which represent more than 75% of the lithic artefacts of each assem…
Transformations des productions lithiques du premier au second Mésolithique en Bretagne et en Irlande
The aim of this paper is to evaluate the available factors of the transformation of lithic production during the Mesolithic in north-west Europe on the basis of examples from Brittany and Ireland, at the turn of the 7th millennium cal. BC. Changes in lithic productions in these two areas -concerning all stages of the "chaîne opératoire”, i. e. techniques, methods and end products - are so important that it is possible to speak about a before and …
Une production de grandes lames par pression à la fin du Néolithique, dans le nord de la Sardaigne (Contraguda, Perfugas)
Les fouilles du site de Contraguda (Perfugas) dans le nord de la Sardaigne ont permis la découverte d'un atelier spécialisé dans la fabrication de grandes lames en silex, probablement daté du Chalcolithique (fin IV- IIIe millénaire cal. ВС). Le présent article vise à présenter la reconstitution des modalités de fabrication de ces grandes lames et à discuter de la place économique de cette production spécialisée, tant à une échelle locale que régi…
Nouvelles données sur le Mésolithique des îles Tyrrhéniennes (Corse et Sardaigne) [Peut-on parler d'un « Mésolithique insulaire » ?]
Research has greatly extended our knowledge of the Mesolithic of the Tyrrhenian Islands these last five years, in particular the excavation of five new sites in Corsica and Sardinia. The growing evidence, notably concerning environment, enables us today to propose new explanations on the modalities of occupation in these islands and way of life of the populations. From these studies, we know that Mesolithic communities settled in these islands, m…
Contribution à l'étude des modalités d'exploitation des rhyolites en Corse
In Corsica, where flint and obsidian are absent, rhyolites were often exploited by prehistoric societies, in particular during the third millennium, when they abound on most archaeological sites. This article aims to discuss exploitation methods of rhyolites in Corsica, using archaeological results from the Monte d'Oro veins (Vivario) and from the analysis of the principal sites known from the third millennium. These results suggest that the supp…
Analyses de provenance des matériaux exploités à Strette (Barbaghju, Haute-Corse)
The rock shelter of Strette, located on Corsica's north coast, is one of the best documented Early Neolithic sites on the island. The aim of this article is to examine the different modes of occupation of this shelter in order to evaluate its position in the logistic system of Corsica's Early Neolithic communities. Study of the ceramic, lithic and faunal remains provides details on the activities which took place in this shelter and allows us to …
