Résumé
The Limestone hills of northern Syria constitute an extraordinary group of archeological settlements. The whole area includes over 700 sites built during the Roman and Byzantine periods in a wide region bordered by Turkey in the north, Apamea in the south, the Afrin and Oronte's valleys in the west and the Aleppo's plain in the east. These sites are exceptional not only for their profusion, but also for their rural nature. The recent and detailed study of the well-preserved remains of one of these settlements, Serğilla, located in the ğebel Zāwiye, offered the opportunity to explore various aspects of the daily life of a rural community and its evolution between the fourth and the sixth century. As the book of "Sergilla, village d'Apamène" aims to detail the complete settlement, this paper focuses on three ordinary houses, among others, built during different phases of the development of the village, which are emblematic of this evolution.
