A database of Pleistocene periglacial features in France has been compiled from a review academic literature and reports rescue archaeology, the analysis aerial photographs new field surveys. Polygons, soil stripes, ice-wedge pseudomorphs, sand wedges composite wedge pseudomorphs are included together with their geographic coordinates, geological context, description associated references. It is hoped that this database, which aim to be integrated broader studies, will stimulate further work...
Tufa deposits are proven to record high quality palaeoenvironmental and palaeoclimatic information. They also appear be influenced by human activities as indicated the ‘late Holocene tufa decline’ observed in Europe from Atlantic optimum, when should well developed regarding climatic conditions. The studied comes Mamer Valley Luxembourg: Direndall. As it covers a broad part of Holocene, this deposit offered great opportunity discuss modalities timing decline impact on fluvial formations...
This paper reports the results of new malacological analyses from a thick tufa sequence at Direndall (Luxembourg). The study is temporally contextualised with radiocarbon dates and an age–depth model. focuses on species associations to reconstruct palaeoenvironmental developments. gradual appearance several shade-demanding reflects expansion forest environments during early Holocene. After c. 7.5 cal. kyr BP, three phases maximal are interspersed two decline these taxa dated between 7.1 6.5...
Located in the Moselle valley Luxembourg, Wintrange basin has been subject of systematic geoarchaeological investigations for last fifteen years. According to observations made upstream, study area could represent a system lower terraces build up two stepped alluvial formations (M2 +10m, M1 +3-5m). A recent synthesis paleoenvironmental studies done on formation produced chronological frame-work (radiocarbon and IRSL dating) permits precise stages morphosedimentary environmental evolution...
Le Solutréen est un techno-complexe peu documenté en Île-de-France et le moyen reste relativement méconnu à l’échelle de la France. À l’exception du gisement Saint-Sulpice-de-Favières (Essonne) fouillé sous direction Béatrice Schmider entre 1983 1985 quelques découvertes isolées contestables pièces foliacées, très d’indices relatifs cette période ont été jusqu’à présent identifiés. Une nouvelle campagne fouille effectuée septembre 2012 dans d’Ormesson près Nemours (Seine-et-Marne) mieux...
Le gisement les Bossats à Ormesson, outre ses niveaux badegoulien, solutréen, gravettien et moustérien, a également livré une occupation châtelperronienne sur grande surface, pelliculaire dont l'intégrité n'a pas souffert de mélanges ou façon très limitée avec des plus anciens récents. Fouillé au sein deux sondages, sondages 3 50 ouverts respectivement 16 2 m2, mais d'une surface estimée 150 m2 minimum, ce niveau livre déjà un certain nombre d'informations concernant l'industrie lithique,...
Ziel dieser Arbeit ist ein besseres Verständnis der Funktionszuweisung neolithischen Langbauten mittels Verteilungskarten des Phosphors und deren Evolution. Ein besonderer Akzent liegt auf den jüngeren Studien mehrerer endneolithischer Häuser. Die Karten wurden mithilfe von systematischen Phosphortests einigen gezielteren Gesamt-Phosphatanalysen erstellt. Im Bereich Organisation Gebäude zeichnen sich bereits einige Tendenzen ab, selbst wenn nicht alle abgeschlossen sind. ersten Ergebnisse...
Palaeoecology, through the analysis of interactions between environmental factors and ecosystems, refines knowledge structuring process plant communities helps to understand complexity past environments. However, it is necessary analyse taphonomic phenomena (deposition, conservation, degradation) affecting macrofossil assemblages in order perform relevant palaeoecological analyses. Indeed, macrofossils may be under or over-represented carpological assemblages, depending on resistance their...
