Only five stratified sites are characteristic of the Paleolithic period in Lorraine, because of the absence of loess and cavities :
- Vassincourt (Meuse) « Sables verts » . Temporary halt of the transition period Middle Acheulean/Upper Acheulean, established on the bank of a branch of the river Ornain at temperate interstade of the beginning of the Riss period.
- Archettes (Vosges) « Rein de Péchotte » : Temporary halt of the Riss period.
- Chavelot (Vosges) « Clair Bois » : A stone chipping area on for levels established inside a dolina dug in the alluvium at the Riss-Wurm and the beginning of the Wurm period.
- Ludres (Meurthe-et-Moselle) « Bois de Chauvemont » : Disturbed archeological level with micoquian artefacts of the early Wurm period.
- Rebeuville (Vosges) « Grottes de Jeannue » : Wurmian sequence with moustenan and magdaleman levels, very poor in artefacts.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
