“…data from fieldwork, along with petrographic and typological analyses of ceramic wares, provide proof of contemporaneity between regional Late Neolithic and Bell Beaker groups. Therefore, Late Neolithic and Bell Beaker contemporary settlements could trade items and ideas, like at sites in the South of France, such as Maupas (Calvisson, Gard) (Roger et al, 1986;Roger, 1988), Le Bois Sacré (Saint-Côme-et-Maruéjols, Gard) (Roudil et al, 1974) and Largellier (Calvisson, Gard) (Roger, 1988). In Maupas and Le Bois Sacré, Bell Beaker ceramics are dominant (mostly Rhodano-Provencal style), but some regional Late Neolithic ceramics are also present (Fontbouisse style), while in Largellier, near the Fontbouisse site, only Bell Beaker ware has been found (all styles).…”

In several European regions, an abrupt change in settlement pattern dynamics was thought for years to be contemporaneous with the spread of the Bell Beaker phenomenon. The aim of this paper is to propose a comparative analysis on topographic locations based on third millennium BCE settlements in two nearby Mediterranean regions: Catalonia (northeast Spain) and Provence (southeast France). These domestic establishments contain a significant amount of Bell Beaker pottery, amongst other artefacts, which balances its classical renown in sepulchral environment. Questioning the presence of these specific remains in these domestic deposits, the Bell Beaker overlapping the various local traditions, still appears as a crucial issue. The study reveals some changing trends in settlement choices for the Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age transition in these two North West Mediterranean regions, but underlines at the same time, the lack of reliable classification frameworks to produce any historical discourse about the spread of Bell Beakers. RésuméDans plusieurs régions européennes, on a longtemps pensé qu'un changement abrupt s'était produit dans les dynamiques de peuplement avec la diffusion du phénomène campaniforme. Le but de cet article est de proposer une analyse comparative des implantations topographiques des gisements du troisième millénaire av. n. è., dans deux régions méditerranéennes voisines : la Catalogne (nord-est de l'Espagne) et la Provence (sud-est de la France). Ces établissements domestiques présentent une quantité significative de céramiques campaniformes, parmi d'autres artefacts, ce qui relativise sa renommée classique en contexte sépulcral. En questionnant la présence de ces vestiges spécifiques dans les habitats, le Campaniforme, imbriqué dans les différentes traditions locales, se pose toujours comme un problème majeur. L'étude révèle des tendances changeantes dans les choix de peuplement pour la transition entre la fin du Néolithique et l'âge du Bronze ancien, dans ces deux régions de Méditerranée nord-occidentale, tout en soulignant l'absence de cadres de classification fiables permettant de produire un discours historique sur la propagation du Campaniforme. Mots-clés:Emplacement topographique, fin du troisième millénaire avant notre ère, Fig. 11. Three scenarios hypotheses (with coexistence possibilities) to understand the presence of Bell Beaker elements in Late third millennium BCE settlements in Mediterranean South-Western Europe.

For Whom the Bell Tolls: Social Hierarchy vs Social Integration in the Bell Beaker Culture of Southern France (Third Millennium bc)

The development of social hierarchy during the European Late Neolithic and Bronze Age is often taken for granted in the literature. The Bell Beaker culture has been given a primary role in this picture as it would correspond to the large-scale diffusion of prestige goods and associated individualistic values. On the basis of the French Midi sequence, this article seeks to demonstrate that the prestige model rests upon a simplistic and abstract perception of the data. Rather than the climax of social competition, the Bell Beaker culture marks the building of new fluid social networks which allowed better circulation of knowledge and people.
