Luc Sanson et al., « Settlements Dynamics Over the Long Term in Lorraine », HALSHS : archive ouverte en Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société - notices sans texte intégral, ID : 10670/1.eeeef4...
Thirty years of diligent practice in preventive archaeology in Lorraine have enable to build up a database that can be used for many archaeological issues that are predominantly spatial. The Inrap-AFAN archives of all operations constitute the data stock. The study of settlement dynamics over the long term comes directly from the Archaeomedes project, but mainly with data from preventive archaeology. The Lorrain geographic perimeter focuses on six test areas. This is a reasonable scale, which should allow us to estimate the feasibility for a broader analysis. The period is that of the “longue durée”, from the Neolithic to the constitution of the village network of the second Middle Ages. The data created are thus homogeneous and can be processed through statistical and spatial processing. The study therefore endeavours to place the archaeological occupations through their dynamics of creation, development and abandonment, in their landscaped and geological environment. Cross-referencing this information provides preferential long-term settlement trajectories
