Étude du mobilier de mouture et du macro-outillage du camp néolithique de Chassey, ‘La Redoute’, Saône-et-Loire

Résumé Fr En

Cette contribution présente le macro-outillage du camp de Chassey (Chassey-le-Camp, Saône-et-Loire) (Thévenot, 2005) en s’inspirant des travaux du Programme collectif de Recherche. Nous étudierons ensuite le contexte géographique des roches et nous essaierons de déterminer leurs modes d’acquisition. Nous tenterons enfin de caractériser les différents aspects technologiques (façonnage, mise en forme, avivage) et typologiques (formes et dimensions) afin de comprendre la chaîne opératoire, du matériau brut à l’outil.

This paper presents several aspects of the Prehistoric and Protohistoric macro-lithic industry. To begin with, the macro-lithic tools from the Neolithic site of Chassey-le-Camp in Saône-et-Loire, France (Thévenot, 2005), were re-examined from the perspective of the findings of the research project “The Typological and Technological Development of Millstones from the Neolithic to the Year One Thousand” to gain a better understanding of their nature. Secondly, this paper focuses on the petrography of querns, examining their geographical and geological contexts to determine their modes of procurement. At the same time, this study attempts to characterise the different technological (fashioning, shaping, dressing) and typological (shape and size) aspects to determine the operational sequence of their manufacture.
