“…To ensure vine charcoal reveals a speculative plant, we have to check whether vines were located on hillslopes where Vitis sylvestris cannot grow. Vine development history in Mercurey can thus be documented because vine is a shrub whose annual pruning provides large quantities of wood which have been burnt since Gallo-Roman times (Amouretti, 1988). Carbonized residues may be a direct marker of vine-growing over long time.…”

“…L'interprétation du signal sédimentaire reconstituée est réalisée à l'aune de données pédoanthracologiques acquises in situ. La présence de charbons dans les niveaux historiques sert en effet de marqueur des activités anthropiques, et notamment de l'activité viticole puisque les produits de la taille de la vigne sont brûlés depuis l'époque gallo-romaine (Amouretti, 1988). Le croisement de ces données sédimentaires et paléoenvironnementales permet de mettre en évidence les interactions entre les modes d'occupation du sol, les pratiques agricoles et les processus géomorphologiques au cours des 2 800 dernières années.…”

Vine introduction in Burgundy (east central France) two millennia ago is responsible for land use changes and increased soil erosion to which societies have tried to adapt. In this paper we seek to figure out the relationship between land uses, agricultural practices and geomorphic dynamics in the Mercurey terroir during the Late Holocene. The method employed is based on the analysis of sedimentary deposits observed in the valley bottom and along hillslopes. It is complemented by a pedoanthracological study derived from a trench excavated into a riverbank, in order to interpret the variability of the reconstituted sedimentary signal. Our results highlight two major stages of detritism over the last 2,800 years. At least from 800 cal. BC, frost heave screes (stored since the Late Pleistocene) are transported from the upper part of hillslopes to the valley bottom by high-energy geomorphic processes (e.g., solifluction flows). This sequence of coarse colluviums is associated with the development of an agropastoral landscape marked by an opening forest cover. A second phase begins after 1400 cal. AD. It is characterized by a fine sedimentation and a high concentration of vine charcoal. Indeed, wine-growing spread in the medieval landscape comes with the building of agricultural infrastructures. It leads to a decrease of sediment connections from the source areas to valley bottom. The coarser sediments are retained on the hillslopes, thus bringing out soil maintenance strategy.

Geomorphological and archaeological indicators of former sea levels along the coast of Paros enabled us to determine and date six distinct sea level stands and the relative sea level (rsl) changes between them, as well as plot the rsl curve for the last 6,300 years. The Late Holocene history of the rsl change in Paros began with the sea level at 4.90 ± 0.10 m below mean sea level (bmsl) dated to the Late Neolithic period (4300 BC-3700 BC). The next sea level at 3.50 ± 0.20 m bmsl is dated to the Geometric and Archaic period of the Cyclades (1050 BC-490 BC) and most probably lasted during the Hellenistic period (323-146 BC). The sea level at 2.40 ± 0.25 m bmsl is dated to the Roman period (146-400 AD) and the next sea level at 1.35 ± 0.20 m bmsl to the Venetian period of the Cyclades (1207-1537). The sea level at 0.80 ± 0.10 m bmsl is dated to after the Venetian period, during the Ottoman rule of the island (1537-1821). The youngest sea level stand at 0.45 ± 0.10 m is attributed to the recent change in the sea level after the late 19th c. onward. The separation between glacio-hydro-isostatic signals and the observed rsl change on Paros Island, in an area of seismic quiescence, demonstrates a significant tectonic component in the rsl changes. Moreover, the sea level stands deduced from Paros in comparison with those from the northern Cyclades indicate a uniform tectonic behaviour of the entire northern and central section of the Cyclades plateau.
