Résumé anglais Abstract. — About two canyons of meridional Corbieres : Galamus and Pierre-Lys. A comparative study of the two most famous canyons in meridional Corbieres allows us to deal genesis and evolution of gorges. The classical explanation by tectonic movements receive here no proof and that rivers pour away in opposite directions on similar structures does not give it easily to be applied. Indeed, we can think that vertical deeping is related to the excavation of structural landforms downstream the canyons, whereas their calibrated forms are connected with the discharge of the rivers. The different parts of these parameters confers to each one its own original characters.
