Summary. — Indications concerning the lumber used in the construction of villages built above bodies of water (« palaffittes »), have been obtained through the anatomical and microscopic obsevation of two samples taken from digs near lake Paladru (Isère, France). Microscopic studies of the various types of lumber show that they were of two main types-hard and soft-corresponding to either fir or beech. (These species have always been present in this area, in greater or lesser quantities). The annual growth rings, serving as a chronology, show that the two samples date from the same era (and are approximatively the same age). They appear to come from the same region (environmental factors) and moreover from the same forest; it would also appear that they were used simultaneously. Teir age in absolute value could be determined through further research using a cross-dating method with appropriate references. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
