Preventive archaeology and environmental archaeologies. The example of the lower Seine valley

Archéologie préventive et archéologies environnementales. L’exemple de la basse vallée de la Seine

Résumé

The lower Seine valley has been the stage of several experiments that associated an understanding of the rhythm of implantation of human occupations with the reconstruction of palaeo-environments. First restricted to specific one-off tasks, the scope of the research dynamics was broadened, and good use made of the investigative potential provided by preventive archaeology, in the framework of the 2001 law that allowed one to free oneself from “negotiated archaeology”. Sand and gravel quarries, corresponding to alluvial spaces and as the valley’s true sedimentary memory, very quickly became a most promising field of investigation, allowing archaeologists to broaden the notion of “heritage to be preserved by study” to geo-archaeology. It was thus possible to put forward a real description of the characteristics of ancient landscapes via multi-scalar observation in time and space of topographical, geological, plant, faunal, morphological and anthropic components of a given environment.
