Le Rossignol et la Banshee
Valentin Grimaud est l’auteur de deux monographies aux éditions Le mot et le reste (Mariah Carey, Casta Diva, 2020 ; Céline Dion, Vestale, novembre 2022). Fait rare dans la critique pop, il sait parler de ce qui se passe dans une voix, un chant, et pas seulement en termes de réussite technique. Dans ce texte haut en couleurs vocales, qui complète idéalement l’essai de Julie Ackermann dans ce même numéro, il nous met à l’écoute des nuances d’une t…
La dalle gravée no 2 de la tombe néolithique de Crampoisic (Saint-Mayeux, Côtes-d’Armor)
La dalle gravée dite de Crampoisic (Saint-Mayeux) fut extraite d’un filon de métadolérite et intégrée au centre de la paroi d’une chambre funéraire de type allée couverte. Le monument était encore entouré d’un tertre peu élevé au moment de la fouille conduite en 1906 par M. Baudouin, mais sera détruit en 1940. La dalle est reconnue avec ses gravures en 1974 par P. Brouté qui la recueille. L’ensemble iconographique peut être scindé en deux entités…
Resolution of a sign (1). Regarding a Neolithic slab in the petit mont passage grave (Arzon, France)
Our communication will make use of the word “resolution” in order to address both the original meanings of prehistoric signs and the new technical capabilities that make it possible to detect ancient engravings on stone. An interpretation of an iconographic program belonging to such an old period (6500 BP) relies on a precise inventory of material removals on the rock surface so that all the signs can be detailed and labelled. For this, we will f…
Signes et désordres sur la stèle néolithique no 3 à La Bretellière (Saint-Macaire-en-Mauges, Maine-et-Loire)
Real and ideal European maritime transfers along the Atlantic coast during the Neolithic
The history of research on the Neolithic of the Atlantic façade shows how speculation about prehistoric mobility, especially across the sea, is mainly based on three types of archaeological evidence: megalithic monuments, rare stones, and pottery decoration. With the aim of approaching the issue from other perspectives, we have focused on the Morbihan area, a focal point of the European Neolithic during the mid-5th millennium BC. The analysis of …
Implementing a protocol for employing three-dimensional representations in archaeology (Petra) for the documentation of neolithic funeral architecture in Western France
Recent Excavation and Recording at the New Neolithic Rock Art Site of Vallée Aux Noirs, Buthiers (Seine‐et‐Marne, France)
Following the exceptional discovery of Neolithic engravings on a boulder at Vallée aux Noirs in the Fontainebleau forest, south of Paris, an excavation trench was opened in order to access the buried part of the decorated rock panel and explore the stratigraphic context of the artwork. A palaeosol was found two metres below the modern ground level, underneath multiple layers of sterile sandy soil forming a very compact sequence from which only on…
The engraved monoliths in the Mané er Groez Neolithic passage tomb in Kercado (Carnac, Morbihan)
The site of Kercado, in Carnac, is situated above the valley of Kerloquet and the ria that runs along the beach of Kerdual for 2 km. It comprises a probable low mound, the cairn of Mané er Groez, with a passage grave, and a curvilinear enclosure of about thirty standing stones bordering the south side of the site. Three orthostats in the passage, three other stones in the funerary chamber, as well as the cover slab, bear engraved signs recorded m…
Les monolithes gravés dans la tombe à couloir néolithique du Mané er Groez à Kercado (Carnac, Morbihan)
Dominant la vallée de Kerloquet et la ria colmatée débouchant à 2 km de là sur la plage de Kerdual, le site de Kercado à Carnac rassemble un probable tertre bas, le cairn du Mané er Groez contenant une tombe à couloir, et une enceinte curviligne d’une trentaine de pierres dressées qui borde l’ensemble plus au sud. Trois dalles de paroi dans le couloir, trois autres dans la chambre ainsi que la pierre de couverture conservent des signes gravés inv…
The ‘Historiated’ Neolithic Stele of Saint-Samson-sur-Rance (Côtes-d'Armor, France)
The stone of Saint-Samson is a Neolithic stele of 70 tons and 10 m of probable length. Its intriguing leaning position and its very regular morphology have aroused curiosity since medieval times. Three of its four faces—oriented towards the cardinal points—display engravings that were discovered in the 1970s. Now, a new recording protocol has combined 2D techniques for emphasizing the contrast of the engravings (oblique rotating lights) and 3D me…
De l’usage de la représentation tridimensionnelle pour documenter les architectures funéraires monumentales ornées du Néolithique de l’ouest de la France
Le relevé d’architecture et les fonctions qui doivent être remplies Pas plus que celle des monuments d’autres époques, l’étude des -architectures méga-lithiques n’échappe aux progrès des techniques d’acquisition tri-dimensionnelle (laser et photogrammétrie), qui permettent de les enregistrer en trois dimensions, selon différentes résolutions et à plusieurs échelles, dans un seul et même espace de référence. La cohérence des données permet de jete…
Enregistrement et représentations de la stèle néolithique de L’Ouche de Beauce (Maisse, Essonne)
Désormais conservée et présentée au musée de Nemours, la stèle gravée de l’Ouche de Beauce (Maisse, Essonne) est un exemple représentatif des éléments d’architecture et des programmes iconographiques néolithiques inventoriés en Gâtinais et en bordure occidentale du massif de Fontainebleau. Notre étude s’attache à l’exposition des différents enregistrements menés sur le monolithe et sur les gravures en vue d’une analyse surfacique et chronologique…
In search of a representation of the Gavrinis megalithic tomb (Morbihan, France)
Gavrinis, on the estuary of the river Vannes (Brittany, France), is known for the extraordinary abundance of engravings preserved on the monolithic wall pillars and capstone. Our objective is to re-qualify these representations using a new frame of reference, based on a new corpus of engraved signs, including their architectural context and position in the volume of the rock. Recording of the topographical, archaeological, petrographic and acoust…
The Recording and Representation of Neolithic Engravings in the Déhus Passage Grave (Vale, Guernsey)
In the course of making a digital record of a bow engraved on the lower face of a capstone in the Déhus passage grave, on Guernsey, several new motifs were observed, necessitating a reinterpretation of the composition as a whole. While the presence of a bow and two arrows is confirmed by photogrammetry and images obtained under directional lighting, the anthropomorphic figure can now be better defined, and compared to figures recently recognised …
