L'Abbaye de Grosbot Charras, Charente, France archaeological excavation with volunteer opportunities Project Information Project now Finished The Department of Archaeology , University of Bristol carried out six annual seasons of excavation at L'Abbaye de Grosbot, Charras, Charante, France between 1996-2002. The project was directed by Dr Mark Horton Grosbot is a privately-owned Cisterican Abbey located on the northern borders of the Dordogne. It is set among woodlands and countryside in the heart of rural France. The church and claustral buildings survive almost complete, and the abbey represents an excellent example of a small Cistercian Abbey which continued until the French Revolution of 1789. The project is mainly focused in an area to the east of the Church, where we have located a complex of infirmary buildings and what appears to be a mausoleum or private chapel for the lay benefactors to the Abbey. A number of burials were found, many very unusual. In addition to the excavation, a field survey of the surrounding landscape is being undertaken, and this includes studies of farms and granges that were supplying the Abbey. A programme of dendrochronology on these farm buildings provided firm dating evidence.

GIS Geographic Information Systems The basic concept of a GIS GPS receivers in the field. A primary benefit of the GIS approach is that the data are available for a variety of research users, and the database is cumulative over time. GIS layer cake GRASS GIS Database Development and Analysis The GIS and image processing system used for the remote sensing and GIS analysis is the GRASS GIS. GRASS , the Geographic Resources Analysis Support System, is a general purpose GIS system that was developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (USA-CERL) in Champaign, IL. It was originally developed for environmental and land use planning at U.S. Army bases, including conducting cultural resources and other environmental land-use analysis. This powerful, integrated raster/vector GIS and image processing software resides in the public domain so that it is freely available. It is available with source code, so that enhancements and alterations can be easily made to it. A new GRASS development and support center that now has a Windows version of GRASS is located at Baylor University The Project GIS Data Base The GIS database covers an area of about 35 by 60 km, covering the majority of the Arroux River Valley and its immediate environs. The current basic raster and vector layers of the GIS data base include:

Your browser does not support javascript Neolithic Surgery Volume 50 Number 5, September/October 1997 Earliest trepanned skull found. (Courtesy Kurt W. Alt) [LARGER IMAGE] A 7,000-year-old burial at Ensisheim, in the French region of Alsace, has yielded the earliest unequivocal evidence for trepanation, according to Kurt W. Alt of Freiburg University and his colleagues. Trepanation is a surgical operation that involves the removal of a rectangle or disk of bone from the cranial vault. Most previous claims to cases predating the Late Neolithic age have been shown to be untreated head injuries or the results of decomposition. In trepanation the section of bone may be extracted with flint or metal blades by drilling a series of small holes, making intersecting incisions, or scraping through the bone. Why the Ensisheim individual was operated on is unknown, but in African communities that practice trepanation today, including the Kissii of western Kenya, there are two traditional motives: therapeutic (to relieve pressure due to skull fractures) and magical-spiritual (to cure headaches, epilepsy, intracranial tumors, and mental illness). On the Ensisheim skull, there are no indications of trauma or disease that might have prompted the trepanations. The burial contains the well-preserved skeleton of a man who died at roughly 50 years of age, as well as an arrowhead and an adze typologically dated to 5100-4900 B.C., a date corroborated by a radiocarbon sample from the bone. Two trepanations had been carried out. One toward the front, measuring 2.6 by 2.4 inches, had healed completely. The second had only partially healed, probably because of its enormous size (3.7 by 3.6 inches). The larger trepanation appears to have been produced by intersecting incisions, and the smaller one may have been made in the same way. The long-term healing evident from the bone indicates the operations were successful.

From 1967 through 1974, Solvieux was intensively researched by a joint UCLA-University of Bordeaux project. In all, 2500 cubic meters of deposit were excavated, producing a kilometer of stratigraphic sections, 2000 square meters of horizontally exposed occupation surface, and some 5000 retouched stone tools representing eleven distinct archaeological levels.

14. Jamestown Ceramic Research Group Group formed to identify and define all the ceramic ware types that appear on or near the pre1650 Jamestown archaeology site in Virginia. Includes ceramic types from Germany, China, England, Italy, france, and Spain. http://www.apva.org/resource/jcrg.html

Jamestown Ceramic Research Group Home Resources : JCRP The Jamestown Ceramics Research Group has been formed to identify and define all the ceramic ware types that appear on pre-1650 Jamestown and vicinity sites. The impetus for this work is a conference that is to take place in the year 2000 entitled Capital and Countryside: Jamestown and its Hinterland. The objective of the conference is to gather and study the data that has been collected through the years on 17th-century archaeological sites in the Chesapeake. Pottery comprises an important component of this study for, of all the classes of artifacts, it yields the richest record of date, social status, household routine, and trade. Valid comparisons of the ceramic information, however, require a standard nomenclature for both ware and form. The Jamestown Ceramics Research Group proposes to do this by maintaining an on-line study collection of these wares. A more detailed proposal of our goals and methods can be found here This is just the beginning at an attempt to standardize the nomenclature of ceramic types found on pre-1650 sites in Virginia and to identify where those wares are being found. Eventually, this work could be extended to the latter half of the 17th century, and perhaps even the 18th century, and encompass much more of the Chesapeake region. It is anticipated that Native American ceramics could also be incorporated into this format. Your input is needed for this project. We need to know where 17th-century wares are being found, in what form, and in what context. Please send your comments to

Aerial Photo Analysis And Survey-GIS And Remote Sensing For Archaeology: Burgund Archaeologists have been using aerial prospecting and photography since just after World War One to locate buried structure, roads, and other features of ancient landscapes. Early pioneers of 'aerial archaeology' conducted the first such surveys in Europe and the Middle East in the 1920's http://www.informatics.org/france/aerial.html

Aerial Photo Analysis and Aerial Survey Archaeologists have been using aerial prospecting and photography since just after World War One to locate buried structure, roads, and other features of ancient landscapes. Several archaeologists who served in that air war noticed strange circles and square patterns from the air that were not visible on the ground and that were not parts of the trenches or modern landscape. After the war they returned to these locations to find that these were actually archaeological sites, ancient roads, and other features of buried ancient landscapes. Early pioneers of 'aerial archaeology' conducted the first such surveys in Europe and the Middle East in the 1920's. Charles Lindbergh also conducted similar surveys in Central America in the 1930's. Aircraft used in aerial survey and photography How is it possible to see ancient landscapes and the buried remains of structures that can be a thousand years old? Faint lines and color changes visible from the air are often invisible on the ground, and can be caused by buried cultural remains. Aerial archaeologists refer to these as crop, soil, and shadow marks. Crop marks form because there can be noticeable variations in crop vigor, color, or height when crops or natural vegetation grows over buried walls or other cultural remains. These are called

16. Before The Pyramids... came first, it is clear that the invention of monumentalism in france dates to the 1999 by the Archaeological Institute of America www.archaeology.org/online http://www.archaeology.org/online/features/neolithic/

Your browser does not support javascript Before the Pyramids... April 28, 1999 Neolithic peoples in France constructed huge tombs that are today only visible from the air. This enigmatic object, dubbed "the point," has been found in several French Neolithic necropolises. They are possibly objects of power or symbols of prestige. (F. Lontcho) [LARGER IMAGE] The funerary monuments of Egypt are perhaps the best known examples of early colossal architecture. Few realize, however, that millennia before the first pyramids Neolithic peoples in France were constructing huge structures to house their dead and mark territorial boundaries. If this phenomenon is not well known, it is only because these buildings no longer exist. Only aerial photographs have detected their remains. Perhaps because of this, study of the Cerny people, the monument-builders of Neolithic France, is fairly recent. Until 35 years ago, no one had even imagined such a culture existed. The Cerny people were the brilliant intuition of Gerard Bailloud, a director of research at France's National Center for Scientific Research, who in 1964 first hypothesized their existence in the book The Neolithic in the Parisian Basin.
