Les occupations pré et protohistoriques de « la Petite Moussigère » (Puyréaux, Charente)

Résumé

The Petite Moussigère site, which is situated in the township of Puyréaux in the Charente department of France, was excavated in the process of bringing National Road 10 up to code between Manles and Tourriers. Artifacts were discovered in relation to occupation surfaces that, for the most part, can be dated to the Late Neolithic and the Bronze Ages. In fact, the excavation order was motivated by the presence of hollows (pits, ditches, and postholes), as well as clusters of ceramic artifacts, including a nose-shaped handle that can be attributed to the Artenacian culture. The hypothesis of a ground level in situ, which was confirmed through pedostratigraphic exploration of the site, led to the plotting of all artifacts originating from a pedogenetic level with a theodolite during excavation. Pits and clusters of postholes were discovered, which allowed for the reproduction of the layouts of buildings, as well as two enclosures which are strongly suspected to have been used for funerary purposes. Despite the fact that the examination of the artifacts allowed researchers to confirm the presence of lithic and ceramic production that can be attributed to the Late Neolithic, for the most part these artifacts are associated with colluvium levels and are not a record of the occupation itself. The artifacts found in the fill inside the hollows do not provide enough distinct elements to individuate a culture, and the placement of the artifacts themselves also creates several obstacles to interpretation.
