La grotte du Taillis des Coteaux à Antigny (Vienne) : intérêts d'une séquence originale à la structuration des premiers temps du Magdalénien

Abstract

The cave of Le Taillis des Coteaux, Antigny (Vienne, France) was discovered in 1998 and excavations began in 2000. The preserved stratigraphy is exceptional as it represents almost the whole Upper Palaeolithic, from the Aurignacian to the Middle Magdalenian, through the Gravettian, Badegoulian and Lower Magdalenian. The latter provides an archaeological assemblage with original typo-technological features evoking the Magdalenian. However, its dating to around 17 000 BP is close to the Badegoulian. The main characteristics of the lithic industry are described, particularly the bladelet production. Its relationship with the Lower Magdalenian is also discussed.
