The flint working site of the "Sablins" in Étaples (Pas-de-Calais) includes mining pits and working areas covered by sandhill deposits. The pottery presents similarities with the Villeneuve-Saint-Germain, Blicquy and Cerny groups products and the dates 14C indicate an early occupation which is the main one for this part of the site. The flint artefacts come from the working places dug out over 475 m2. The production is not much specialized and its gives mainly flakes and rarely some roughly manufactured nodules. The technical studies and the reassemblage examinations allow to understand the "chaîne opératoire" process. Later, the Middle Neolithic II settlement and then the Beaker-Early Bronze Age ones forsake, in this same place the mining and flint chipping. (traduction G. Mordant)
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.
