Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The scientific study of the archaeology of the historic period in France is as yet a relatively new discipline. The Centre for Medieval Archaeological Research at Caen has developed fresh techniques for both teaching and research in this field. Courses available at undergraduate and graduate level are described; these include medieval excavation techniques, bibliographical and documentary research, geology and pedology, air photography, resistivity and magnetometer survey, recording of excavations and working knowledge of scientific techniques such as dendrochronology and remanent magnetism. Practical work in the laboratory and the field is emphasised. The work of the Centre includes search for all published records of mottes in France and the classification of burial finds in Normandy made since 1800. In particular a project to record all medieval ceramic remains is intended to provide a sound chronological basis for future work; details of the sherds, including chemical and other laboratory analyses, are recorded by the Gardin system on facet-classified punched cards. | ||||||||
