Abstract

This Open Access book explains that after long periods of prehistoric research in which the importance of the archaeological as well as the natural context of rock art has been constantly underestimated, research has now begun to take this context into focus for documentation, analysis, interpretation and understanding. Human footprints are prominent among the long-time under-researched features of the context in caves with rock art. In order to compensate for this neglect an innovative research program has been established several years ago that focuses on the merging of indigenous knowledge and western archaeological science for the benefit of both sides. The book gathers first the methodological diversity in the analysis of human tracks. Here major representatives of anthropological, statistical and traditional approaches feature the multi-layered methods available for the analysis of human tracks. Second it compiles case studies from around the globe of prehistoric human tracks. For the first time, the most important sites which have been found worldwide are published in a single publication. The third focus of this book is on firsthand experiences of researchers with indigenous tracking experts from around the globe, expounding on how archaeological sciencecan benefit from the ancestral knowledge. This book will be of interest to professional archaeologists, graduate students, ecologists, cultural anthropologists and laypeople, especially those focussing on hunting-gathering and pastoralist communities and who appreciate indigenous knowledge.

Abstract

La grotte d'Enlène n'est pas un simple habitat préhistorique parmi d'autres. Elle fut aussi le passage obligé, l'antichambre de la caverne des Trois-Frères, avec laquelle elle communique par un long boyau. Des groupes de chasseurs-cueilleurs ont occupé Enlène dans toutes ses parties, jusqu'à 200 m du jour, peut-être pour se rapprocher des sanctuaires et de leurs "sorciers". Les recherches ont révélé les traces de passage des Magdaléniens, des esquilles osseuses mystérieusement fichées dans les parois et les sols, et des zones d'habitat avec leurs foyers et pavages. Elles ont aussi révélé que cet habitat était un atelier où étaient façonnés des objets de la vie quotidienne et un art mobilier, dont cet ouvrage établit le catalogue exhaustif. Qu'il soit amateur d'art, étudiant ou chercheur, le lecteur sera interpellé par l'inventivité dans l'élaboration des objets les plus divers, témoins d'une esthétique du quotidien. De nombreuses photographies aideront à faire partager notre empathie pour ces hommes, ces femmes et ces enfants qui firent halte à Enlène, il y a 17 000 ans, le temps de quelques saisons de chasse
