L’aven sépulcral de Plérimond à Aups, Var (VIe s. av. J.-C.)

Abstract

This is the first detailed study of a sepulchral cave in Provence, dated to the 6th century BC, discovered in 1952 and excavated in 1964-1965. It includes after the description of the cavity and presentation of the research, a methodical catalogue, mainly consisting in weapons. The results of the preliminary analyses of bones belonging for the majority to young men are being taken over with supplementary study. The deposit of artefacts and bones in a cave constitutes an original funerary complex in a region where barrows are the rule. Later on, practices were still featured by the throwing of coins during the 2nd century BC and the 4th century AD.
