Résumé En

Beaussart : The archeological exploration of Famars : the elements from the Late Empire. Until now the chief finding about Famars, the ancient Fanum Martis in the Notifia Dignitatum was the Late Empire castellum, and this was due to Bersu ( ?) and Unverzagt's excavations. Since 1970 a team led by Ph. Beaussart have concerned themselves with gathering any information able to complement our documentation on the Late Empire Famars. The author here draws up the results of this work in giving account of their excavation in a potters'settlement on the site of parcel 408 and their identification of grouped dwellings (parcel 412). Besides, several isolated discoveries made in the course of private or public digging are successively analysed. The map recording the remnants contained inside the Late Empire rampart has been completed by the appearance of ancient walls found while opening a sondage at the foot the parish church. This survey finally mentions the discovery, at Trith-St-Léger of an ancient way which must have connected Famars to Arras. The conclusion insists on the importance of this Roman community which certainly had no regular plan but was very busy in spite of its out of the way site, off the chief roods. Several pages with pictures of fibulae and coins complete the article.
