Abstract: Summary: The Iron Age period occupies an important place in French history because the Gauls are regularly presented as the direct ancestors of the extant French population. We documented here the genomic diversity of Iron Age communities originating from six French regions. The 49 acquired genomes permitted us to highlight an absence of discontinuity between Bronze Age and Iron Age groups in France, lending support to a cultural transition linked to progressive local economic changes rather than to a massive influx of allochthone groups. Genomic analyses revealed strong genetic homogeneity among the regional groups associated with distinct archaeological cultures. This genomic homogenization appears to be linked to individuals’ mobility between regions and gene flow with neighbouring groups from England and Spain. Thus, the results globally support a common genomic legacy for the Iron Age population of modern-day France that could be linked to recurrent gene flow between culturally differentiated communities.

3. La mise en bière au Néolithique ancien en Allemagne

Author: Corinne Thevenet
Subjects: coffin, Early Neolithic, funerary practices, position of the deposit, taphonomic analysis, Western Europe, Archaeology, CC1-960
Abstract: From the funeral, often long and complex, the archaeologist perceives most of time only the moment of the deposit of the body in the grave. However, we can grasp one part of the gestures made before the inhumation and in particular, the deposit of the deceased in a coffin, moment which belongs to the preparation of the body. The coffin can play a functional part in different moments of the funerary times, just as well before the funeral than during, or after the deposit in the grave. Coffins made with organic features are rarely preserved in temperate environment. The taphonomic analysis of the body and the grave allows nevertheless to restore the presence of a coffin. The archaeologist will speak about rigid and movable container, this designation including different morphological types. In certain graveyards of Rhine regions, some deceaseds were deposited on the back, in extended position, while the majority of the deads were laid down on one side, with flexed limbs. The taphonomic analysis of the deceaseds in extended position shows that they were deposited in a coffin. The recognition of this movable containers is an important datum for the study of neolithic burial practices and particularly to understand the progress of funeral.

S. Shnaider received support from the Russian Science Foundation (no. 19-78-10053)., Modern humans have populated Europe for more than 45,000 years1,2. Our knowledge of the genetic relatedness and structure of ancient hunter-gatherers is however limited, owing to the scarceness and poor molecular preservation of human remains from that period3. Here we analyse 356 ancient hunter-gatherer genomes, including new genomic data for 116 individuals from 14 countries in western and central Eurasia, spanning between 35,000 and 5,000 years ago. We identify a genetic ancestry profile in individuals associated with Upper Palaeolithic Gravettian assemblages from western Europe that is distinct from contemporaneous groups related to this archaeological culture in central and southern Europe4, but resembles that of preceding individuals associated with the Aurignacian culture. This ancestry profile survived during the Last Glacial Maximum (25,000 to 19,000 years ago) in human populations from southwestern Europe associated with the Solutrean culture, and with the following Magdalenian culture that re-expanded northeastward after the Last Glacial Maximum. Conversely, we reveal a genetic turnover in southern Europe suggesting a local replacement of human groups around the time of the Last Glacial Maximum, accompanied by a north-to-south dispersal of populations associated with the Epigravettian culture. From at least 14,000 years ago, an ancestry related to this culture spread from the south across the rest of Europe, largely replacing the Magdalenian-associated gene pool. After a period of limited admixture that spanned the beginning of the Mesolithic, we find genetic interactions between western and eastern European hunter-gatherers, who were also characterized by marked differences in phenotypically relevant variants.

Abstract: International audience; Genomic studies conducted on ancient individuals across Europe have revealed how migrations have contributed to its present genetic landscape, but the territory of present-day France has yet to be connected to the broader European picture. We generated a large dataset comprising the complete mitochondrial genomes, Y chromosome markers and genotypes on a number of nuclear loci of interest of 243 individuals sampled across present-day France over a period spanning 7,000 years, complemented with a partially overlapping dataset of 58 low-coverage genomes. This panel provides a high-resolution transect of the dynamics of maternal and paternal lineages in France as well as of autosomal genotypes. Parental lineages and genomic data both revealed demographic patterns in France for the Neolithic and Bronze Age transitions consistent with neighboring regions, first with a migration wave of Anatolian farmers followed by varying degrees of admixture with autochthonous hunter-gatherers, then substantial gene flow from individuals deriving part of their ancestry from the Pontic Steppe at the onset of the Bronze Age. Our data have also highlighted the persistence of the Magdalenian-associated ancestry in hunter-gatherer populations outside of Spain and thus provide arguments for an expansion of these populations at the end of the Paleolithic period more northerly than what has been described so far. Finally, no major demographic changes were detected during the transition between the Bronze and Iron Ages.

Abstract: Farming was first introduced to southeastern Europe in the mid-7th millennium BCE - brought by migrants from Anatolia who settled in the region before spreading throughout Europe. However, the dynamics of the interaction between the first farmers and the indigenous hunter-gatherers remain poorly understood because of the near absence of ancient DNA from the region. We report new genome-wide ancient DNA data from 204 individuals-65 Paleolithic and Mesolithic, 93 Neolithic, and 46 Copper, Bronze and Iron Age-who lived in southeastern Europe and surrounding regions between about 12,000 and 500 BCE. We document that the hunter-gatherer populations of southeastern Europe, the Baltic, and the North Pontic Steppe were distinctive from those of western Europe, with a West-East cline of ancestry. We show that the people who brought farming to Europe were not part of a single population, as early farmers from southern Greece are not descended from the Neolithic population of northwestern Anatolia that was ancestral to all other European farmers. The ancestors of the first farmers of northern and western Europe passed through southeastern Europe with limited admixture with local hunter-gatherers, but we show that some groups that remained in the region mixed extensively with local hunter-gatherers, with relatively sex-balanced admixture compared to the male-biased hunter-gatherer admixture that we show prevailed later in the North and West. After the spread of farming, southeastern Europe continued to be a nexus between East and West, with intermittent steppe ancestry, including in individuals from the Varna I cemetery and associated with the Cucuteni-Trypillian archaeological complex, up to 2,000 years before the Steppe migration that replaced much of northern Europe9s population.

Abstract: L’archeologie francophone est souvent percue comme rigoureuse dans le choix des termes, descriptifs et interpretatifs, concernant les restes mortuaires. Toutefois, si chacun utilise un vocabulaire qu’il pense precis, un rapide tour d’horizon de la bibliographie revele une terminologiepeu fixee, parfois foisonnante, rarement traduisible en anglais, avec un manque de consensus sur le sens ou l’emploi des mots et avec une absence generalisee de reference a leur definition initiale. Certes, ce foisonnement peut etre vu comme une source d’innovation qui correspond a des besoins nouveaux et aux mutations de l’archeologie funeraire mais il doit ensuite etre discute, evalue, elague. Partant d’un article princeps mais meconnu de Jean Leclerc (1975), notre groupe de reflexion s’est donne pour tâche de reflechir a des concepts de base de l’archeo-anthropologie, pour la plupart deja proposes dans ce travail pionnier, restreint alors aux seules sepultures collectives (cadre que nous avons elargi). Nos premieres propositions portent sur deux lieux communs de l’archeologie (et de l’archeologie de la mort, en particulier) : les types de connexion anatomique et l’effet de paroi. Selon les contextes (sepulture individuelle, plurielle, amas osseux, etc.), les premiers renvoient a des rapports anatomiques differents, parfois paradoxaux, ce que ne resout pas l’apposition d’adjectifs et qui rend delicat l’emploi de la terminologie proposee en 1975 (connexions strictes, lâches, a distance, absence de connexion). Le second a suscite un tel engouement qu’il a genere quantite de derives qui montrent que la recherche absolue de la precision est souvent synonyme de confusion. Le vocabulaire analytique n’est qu’un outil pour structurer et partager l’observation et pour progresser vers l’interpretation (evolution taphonomique, reconstitution de l’appareil et de la structure funeraire, reinterventions, etc.). Il doit etre simple, le plus universel et le plus clair possible.

Abstract: We investigated the contribution of freshwater resources to the diet of seven Late Mesolithic hunter-gatherers (ca. 5300–7000 BC) from Northern France and Luxembourg using stable isotope ratios. In addition to the carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios (δ13C, δ15N), we explored the potential of the sulphur isotopic ratios (δ34S) to detect and quantify the proportion of protein derived from aquatic foodstuff. In only two sites, animal remains from an associated settlement were available and subsequently examined to decipher the isotopic differential between terrestrial and freshwater resources. The quantification of their relative contribution was simulated using a Bayesian mixing model. The measurements revealed a significant overlap in δ13C values between freshwater and terrestrial resources and a large range of δ15N values for each food category. The δ34S values of the aquatic and terrestrial animals were clearly distinct at the settlement in the Seine valley, while the results on fish from Belgium demonstrated a possible overlap in δ34S values between freshwater and terrestrial resources. Local freshwater ecosystem likely contributed to ca. 30–40 % of the protein in the diet of the individuals found in the Seine settlement. Out of this context, the isotopic signature and thus contribution of the available aquatic foods was difficult to assess. Another potential source of dietary protein is wild boar. Depending on the local context, collagen δ34S values may contribute to better assessment of the relative contribution of freshwater and terrestrial resources.

Abstract: How modern humans dispersed into Eurasia and Australasia, including the number of separate expansions and their timings, is highly debated [1, 2]. Two categories of models are proposed for the dispersal of non-Africans: (1) single dispersal, i.e., a single major diffusion of modern humans across Eurasia and Australasia [3-5]; and (2) multiple dispersal, i.e., additional earlier population expansions that may have contributed to the genetic diversity of some present-day humans outside of Africa [6-9]. Many variants of these models focus largely on Asia and Australasia, neglecting human dispersal into Europe, thus explaining only a subset of the entire colonization process outside of Africa [3-5, 8, 9]. The genetic diversity of the first modern humans who spread into Europe during the Late Pleistocene and the impact of subsequent climatic events on their demography are largely unknown. Here we analyze 55 complete human mitochondrial genomes (mtDNAs) of hunter-gatherers spanning ∼35,000 years of European prehistory. We unexpectedly find mtDNA lineage M in individuals prior to the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). This lineage is absent in contemporary Europeans, although it is found at high frequency in modern Asians, Australasians, and Native Americans. Dating the most recent common ancestor of each of the modern non-African mtDNA clades reveals their single, late, and rapid dispersal less than 55,000 years ago. Demographic modeling not only indicates an LGM genetic bottleneck, but also provides surprising evidence of a major population turnover in Europe around 14,500 years ago during the Late Glacial, a period of climatic instability at the end of the Pleistocene.

12. The LKB enclosure and associated structures at Menneville Derrière le Village (Aisne, France): from diversity in mortuary behaviour to a coherent system

Author: Corinne Thevenet
Subjects: Archeology, Geography, Domestic animal, media_common.quotation_subject, Enclosure, Structural basin, Archaeology, Diversity (politics), media_common
Abstract: The enclosure of Menneville consists of segments of ditches stretching over nearly 1000 m and enclosing a large LBK settlement with at least two phases of occupation dated to the middle and late stages of the later LBK of the Paris Basin, or RRBP (Rubane recent du Bassin parisien). Numerous human remains have been recovered from the ditches of this enclosure, which also yielded quantities of domestic animal bones and rather fewer lithic and ceramic artefacts. The human remains show that the deceased were treated in a variety of ways: the evidence ranges from articulated bodies to isolated bones, and mortuary behaviour includes post-mortem manipulation, careful burial and casual deposition. In spite of this diversity, the way the deposits were arranged within the stretches of ditches show a similar structural organisation, indicating that the whole was a highly coherent system. Four types of deposit have been identified, ranging from the simplest to the most complex, with some arrangements involving the asymmetrical treatment of bodies. These observations allow us to suggest how the enclosure functioned and discuss the identity of its users. Together the results point towards a ceremonial interpretation and to rituals that may have taken place periodically. They also lead us to consider questions relating to positive or negative attitudes towards the deceased.

Abstract: Modern humans arrived in Europe ∼45,000 years ago, but little is known about their genetic composition before the start of farming ∼8,500 years ago. Here we analyse genome-wide data from 51 Eurasians from ∼45,000-7,000 years ago. Over this time, the proportion of Neanderthal DNA decreased from 3-6% to around 2%, consistent with natural selection against Neanderthal variants in modern humans. Whereas there is no evidence of the earliest modern humans in Europe contributing to the genetic composition of present-day Europeans, all individuals between ∼37,000 and ∼14,000 years ago descended from a single founder population which forms part of the ancestry of present-day Europeans. An ∼35,000-year-old individual from northwest Europe represents an early branch of this founder population which was then displaced across a broad region, before reappearing in southwest Europe at the height of the last Ice Age ∼19,000 years ago. During the major warming period after ∼14,000 years ago, a genetic component related to present-day Near Easterners became widespread in Europe. These results document how population turnover and migration have been recurring themes of European prehistory.

Abstract: Des funérailles, fréquemment longues et complexes, l’archéologue ne perçoit bien souvent que le moment de la mise en terre. Il est toutefois possible d’appréhender une partie des gestes réalisés en amont de l’inhumation et notamment la mise en bière qui est partie prenante de la préparation du corps. Outre à ce moment, le cercueil peut jouer un rôle fonctionnel à différentes étapes du temps funéraire, aussi bien en amont des funérailles que durant celles-ci, ou une fois le dépôt accompli. Souvent constitués de matériaux périssables, les cercueils ne se conservent que rarement en milieu tempéré. On peut néanmoins reconnaître leur présence par le biais de l’analyse taphonomique du cadavre et de la sépulture. L’archéologue parlera de contenant rigide et mobile, dénomination pouvant englober des types morphologiques différents. Dans certaines nécropoles des régions rhénanes, quelques défunts ont été inhumés sur le dos, en position allongée, alors que la pratique majoritaire consiste à inhumer le corps fléchi sur le côté. L’analyse taphonomique de ces sujets met en évidence qu’ils ont été initialement « mis en bière ». La reconnaissance de ces contenants mobiles constitue une donnée importante en soi, mais plus encore, les conséquences que leur présence implique sur le déroulement des funérailles. From the funeral, often long and complex, the archaeologist perceives most of time only the moment of the deposit of the body in the grave. However, we can grasp one part of the gestures made before the inhumation and in particular, the deposit of the deceased in a coffin, moment which belongs to the preparation of the body. The coffin can play a functional part in different moments of the funerary times, just as well before the funeral than during, or after the deposit in the grave. Coffins made with organic features are rarely preserved in temperate environment. The taphonomic analysis of the body and the grave allows nevertheless to restore the presence of a coffin. The archaeologist will speak about rigid and movable container, this designation including different morphological types. In certain graveyards of Rhine regions, some deceaseds were deposited on the back, in extended position, while the majority of the deads were laid down on one side, with flexed limbs. The taphonomic analysis of the deceaseds in extended position shows that they were deposited in a coffin. The recognition of this movable containers is an important datum for the study of neolithic burial practices and particularly to understand the progress of funeral.

Abstract: International audience; La mort est une dimension humaine centrale autour de laquelle toutes les sociétés ont développé un ensemble de croyances et de pratiques, souvent très élaborées et très codifiées. Le « travail du deuil » engage généralement la communauté au-delà des proches du défunt. Il tend à réaliser la séparation entre les morts et les vivants. Enfin, il « construit » le défunt ou mort en ancêtre. Cette exigence a été identifiée dans le travail pionnier de Robert Hertz et sa théorie des doubles funérailles : l'âme du mort est dangereuse pendant une période intermédiaire, ce sont les deuxièmes funérailles qui, en le transformant en ancêtre, en font une entité bienfaisante pour les vivants.Le devenir du corps mort, sa thanatomorphose, est également un sujet central de préoccupation. Le cadavre est le support de représentations diverses, voire de fantasmes, propres à chaque culture, qui vont conditionner les différents types de traitement que l'on va lui faire subir. C'est par l'analyse de ces différents traitements que nous tentons ici de déchiffrer les solutions qu'ont élaborées les sociétés, selon deux approches rarement combinées, celle de l'ethnologie et celle de l'archéologie. Un même fil directeur a conduit ces travaux dont les contextes culturels et géographiques sont variés : celui d'une chaîne opératoire funéraire.

Abstract: Understanding societal conceptions of death presents a unique challenge to prehistorians because they cannot witness first-hand the funerary practices that interest them. Rather, they are limited to studying the physical traces left behind by such practices. However, we wish to move beyond description towards interpretation, because what interests us is not simply the individual practices (or even sets of practices), but the system that unifies them and imbues them with meaning. To unravel these systems, it is important to bear in mind that not all of the acts documented in the material record were obligatory. While there is the “devoir-faire” (what must be done), there also exists the “pouvoir-faire” (what can be done). The archaeologist must carefully categorize these practices: identify their frequency (from what is never done to what is always done), as well as make correlations among the essential elements of the burial. The obvious difficulty emerges when it is time to connect the archaeological interpretation to the reality of the original funerary practices. We explore three approaches that are drawn from our individual research. The definition of the norm within a given region leads us to question more closely the criteria by which groups are defined. Next, we explore the range of variability that can be reasonably expected within a single group. Finally, we examine the degree to which norms either remain stable or change through time, as well as the interactions between funerary practices and other aspects of the society., Pour aborder le discours des hommes sur la mort, le préhistorien est réduit à traquer des gestes réalisés autour des morts qu’il découvre: afin d’éviter toute surinterprétation, nous les appelons pratiques, les « pratiques funéraires ». Or, ce que nous souhaitons, c’est passer de la description à l’interprétation. Car ce qui a un sens, une logique, ce n’est pas un geste ou une collection de gestes, mais un système. Cependant, pour décoder un tel système, il faut d’abord être conscient que les gestes ne relèvent pas tous de l’obligation: à côté du « devoir-faire », la norme, il existe un « pouvoirfaire », ce qui est laissé à l’appréciation des exécutants. Sur le plan archéologique, il faut patiemment ordonner les pratiques: identifier leur récurrence, de jamais à toujours, ainsi que les corrélations entre les éléments constitutifs de la tombe. La difficulté consiste évidemment à passer de la dimension archéologique à la dimension funéraire initiale. À partir d’exemples tirés de nos recherches individuelles, nous avons exploré trois directions. La définition de la norme dans un espace géographique nous a conduits à nous interroger sur les critères qui définissent nos ensembles. Au sein d’un ensemble défini, nous avons questionné la valeur que l’on doit accorder aux variations. Enfin, sur le plan diachronique, nous nous sommes penchés sur la permanence de la norme ou son changement, et donc sur les interactions entre la norme funéraire et les autres pans des activités sociales.

26. Une relecture des pratiques funéraires du Rubané récent et final du Bassin parisien : l'exemple des fosses sépulcrales dans la vallée de l'Aisne

Abstract: In 1995, excavation of a new site in the Aisne valley (Berry-au-Bac "le Vieux Tordoir") provided the first evidence for architectural features inside Bandkeramik graves in the Paris Basin (Allard et al. 1997). Although the structural complexity of these grave pits initially seemed anecdotal, the excavation in 1999 of a new group of graves in the Marne (Bonnabel et al. 2003), strengthened the hypothesis of possible variability in burial structures in the Late/Final Bandkeramik. Morphologically, these five new graves consist of two parts: to the north, the actual grave pit containing the body. The side of the pit is undermined, so that the body lies beneath an overhang formed by undisturbed natural sediment. To the south, the pit includes a step (banquette) on which pottery is placed. The corpse thus lies in a confined space. On the surface, the pit is more or less circular and of considerable size. This explains why, after topsoil removal, the pits were not immediately identified as graves. It thus seemed probable that further Bandkeramik burials of the same type had not been recognised during previous excavations. In order to identify this type of pit in the data from the Aisne valley, five criteria were selected on the basis of the Berry-au-Bac graves. Out of the eighty-six Bandkeramik graves in the Aisne valley, only those with sufficient recording, depth and state of preservation were included in the study. In the end, eleven more graves with this morphology were identified. This new burial model raises numerous questions. First of all, the morphology of the pits is in strong contrast with our perception of Bandkeramik burial. Here the bodies are protected from contact with the earth, reflecting different cultural choices and also an unequal investment in ritual. Although we do not know how the graves were closed, as the former ground-surface is completely eroded, a number of hypotheses can be proposed, which either include or exclude the step in the burial area. This type of pit also raises the question of the possible reopening of graves, for ritual or robbing, as an empty space is an accessible space. Lastly, and this is the principal question, to what extent are these grave pits representative of Bandkeramik burial practice ? Is there real variability in burial practices, with on the one hand simple pits, immediately filled after placing of the body, and on the other complex pits with niches, designed to provide a confined space ? If this variability does exist, does it reflect a chronological development of burial practice in the western Bandkeramik, or social or cultural distinctions between members of the same group? Or does this challenge of the traditional view of burial just amount to the replacement of one model by another, without modifying the idea of strong cultural homogeneity in burial practice ? The diversity observed in burial modes enables us to consider the whole set of Paris Basin Bandkeramik funerary practices from a different viewpoint. In fact the fundamental question is: what is known today about Bandkeramik burial practices? As there is now a considerable amount of quality data, it should hopefully be possible to go beyond simple description., En 1995, la fouille d'un nouveau site rubané dans la vallée de l'Aisne (Berry-au-Bac) avait permis de mettre en évidence pour la première fois des dispositifs architecturaux dans les sépultures danubiennes du Bassin parisien (Allard et al., 1997). Si la structuration complexe de ces fosses sépulcrales a pu paraître anecdotique au premier abord, la fouille d'un nouvel ensemble funéraire dans la Marne, en 1999 (Bonnabel et al., 2003), est venu conforter l'hypothèse d'une possible variabilité des structures funéraires au Rubané récent/final. La morphologie de ces cinq nouvelles tombes se décompose en deux parties : au nord, la fosse sépulcrale proprement dite, où repose le défunt. Elle est creusée en sape, le corps reposant sous un surplomb formé par le sédiment encaissant laissé en place. Au sud, la fosse comprend une banquette, sur laquelle est déposé le mobilier céramique. Le défunt repose donc dans un espace confiné. En surface, la fosse est déforme plus ou moins circulaire et de grandes dimensions, c'est pourquoi la fonction sépulcrale de ces fosses n 'a pas été immédiatement reconnue lors du décapage. Il apparaissait donc vraisemblable que d'autres sépultures rubanées du même type n 'avaient pas été reconnues lors de fouilles passées. Afin d'identifier ce type de fosse parmi le corpus de la vallée de l'Aisne, nous avons sélectionné cinq critères à partir des tombes de Berry-au-Bac. Parmi les quatre-vingt-six tombes rubanées de la vallée de l'Aisne, nous n'avons conservé que celles dont la documentation, la profondeur et l'état de conservation du squelette permettaient une bonne observation des critères sélectionnés. Au final, onze tombes supplémentaires présentant la même morphologie ont pu être identifiées. Ce nouveau modèle sépulcral pose de nombreuses questions. Tout d'abord, la morphologie de ces fosses traduit une rupture importante dans notre perception de l'ensevelissement des morts au Rubané. Les corps sont ici préservés du contact de la terre, ce qui traduit des choix culturels différents, mais également un investissement inégal dans le rituel. Bien que le système de fermeture reste inconnu, car l'érosion nous prive de toute information, il est possible de proposer plusieurs hypothèses, incluant ou non la banquette dans l'espace sépulcral. Ce type de fosse pose également la question d'une réouverture possible des sépultures (réouverture rituelle ou violation) car un espace vide est un espace accessible. Enfin, et с 'était là notre principale interrogation, quelle est la représentativité de ces fosses sépulcrales au sein des pratiques funéraires rubanées ? Assiste-t-on à une véritable variabilité des pratiques ď ensevelissement, avec d'une part des fosses simples, immédiatement comblées après le dépôt du corps, et d'autre part des fosses complexes en niche, ménageant un espace confiné ? Si cette variabilité existe, traduit-elle une évolution chronologique des pratiques funéraires du Rubané occidental ou des distinctions sociales ou culturelles entre les membres d'un même groupe? Ou alors, la remise en cause de l'image sépulcrale traditionnelle se résume-t-elle au remplacement d'un modèle par un autre, sans modifier Vidée d'une forte homogénéité culturelle des pratiques funéraires ? La diversité constatée dans les modes d'ensevelissement nous autorise à envisager l'ensemble des pratiques funéraires du Rubané du Bassin parisien sous un autre angle. En fait, toutes ces questions se résument en une seule : que sait-on à l'heure actuelle des pratiques funéraires rubanées ? La documentation étant aujourd'hui importante et de qualité, on peut espérer dépasser davantage le seuil du factuel., Thevenet Corinne. Une relecture des pratiques funéraires du Rubané récent et final du Bassin parisien : l'exemple des fosses sépulcrales dans la vallée de l'Aisne.

Abstract: International audience; Complexe, la chaîne opératoire funéraire assure à la fois une transformation matérielle, celle du corps du défunt, et une transformation idéelle qui concerne son âme ou principe vital et sa place, laissée vide, dans la société. Sa restitution, son bornage et son découpage dépendent à la fois de la nature des funérailles, du projet des acteurs et, dans une certaine mesure, du choix de l’observateur, ethnologue ou archéologue.Cet ouvrage présente un découpage de la chaîne en plusieurs étapes centrées sur le corps mort, marquant ses changements progressifs, toutes indispensables au bon déroulement de la transformation du défunt. Ainsi, au fil des 16 contributions, sont illustrés : la préparation du corps ; la transformation du cadavre ; le devenir des restes ; le souvenir du mort ; grâce à des exemples ethnologiques et archéologiques variés, fruits des travaux des chercheurs de la Maison Archéologie & Ethnologie, René-Ginouvès.
