La viticulture en Gaule à l'Âge du Fer

Abstract

Les rares sources littéraires disponibles n'apportent guère de témoignage d'une viticulture dans la Gaule du Nord, mais affirment en revanche son existence dans le sud. Les sources archéologiques se placent dans le Midi surtout, notamment dans le territoire de Marseille, mais aussi en Provence et en Languedoc, avec la découverte de pépins de raisin, de pollens et de bois de vigne, de traces agraires, d'outils et de dolia. Sur le plan économique, Marseille produit du vin pour le vendre, s 'opposant aux sites viticoles indigènes dont la production est très faible. Lattes représente un cas à part avec une viticulture extensive aux IIP-Pr s. avant notre ère.

Plant Resources from the Bronze Age and the first Iron Age in the northwestern arc of the Mediterranean Basin

“…This spread varies in time from site to site. Grape cultivation in southern France, notably in the Rhone Valley and the coastal plain of Languedoc, for example, is not recorded before the second half of the 6 th or possibly the 5 th century BC (Py and Buxó, 2001;Bouby, 2014;Bouby et al, 2014). are species with a delayed return that break with an agricultural rhythm that, up to then, was rooted only on obtaining immediate returns, in the form of grains and pulses.…”

Never Mind the Bottle. Archaeobotanical Evidence of Beer-brewing in Mediterranean France and the Consumption of Alcoholic Beverages During the 5th Century BC

“…This range of cultivated plants is largely similar to those identified at the same time throughout the French Mediterranean area, especially in the Languedoc region, on the opposite shore of the Rhône River (Marinval 1988;Buxo I Capdevila 1996;Bouby and Marinval 2000;Py and Buxo I Capdevila 2001;Alonso et al 2007). This agricultural pattern largely developed from a more ancient Early Iron Age (ca.…”

Plant uses and storage in the 5th century bc Etruscan quarter of the city of Lattara, France

“…Sampling and archaeobotanical analyses of fruit and seeds have been undertaken systematically at Lattara for the last 30 years. Most of these analyses are published either in the Lattara series (Buxó 1989(Buxó , 1991(Buxó , 1992(Buxó , 1996a(Buxó , 1999(Buxó , 2003(Buxó , 2005Py 1997;Rovira 2010, 2014) or in scientific journals (Buxó 1996b(Buxó , 1997Py 1993;Py and Buxó 2001;Alonso et al 2008). Data regarding the immediate surroundings of the ancient city both before and contemporary with its occupations were obtained from the studies of the neighbouring sites of Port Ariane (Alonso et al 2007(Alonso et al , 2011, Mas de Causse (Rovira 2010) and La Cougourlude (Figueiral and Bouby 2014).…”
