This volume is one of the first scientific publications devoted to the archaeological research covering Bronze Age occupation (20th-14th centuries BC) carried out during the construction of the northern ring road around the city of Lyon. It has been possible interpret the vestiges discovered as belonging to rural centres or clusters of dwellings established at a site on the Bank of the valley. The sets of objects studied, primarily ceramics, have come to constitute a valuable reference resource for the Lyon region. They testify to a composite cultural profile for the early Bronze Age. combining northern and southern characteristics, while the Bell Beaker cultural background subsists. During the late Bronze I period, however. the southern features give way to influences of the Jura and Burgundian regions and those derived from the north-western façade of the Alps. Palaeo-environmental studies conducted in conjunction with the archaeological work provide the basis for an investigation of the landscape during the Bronze Age and the foundation of the populations’ subsistence economy, in keeping with the basic outlines established for the temperate regions of Western Europe.

Les actes du XXXe colloque de l’Association Française pour l’Étude de l’Âge du Fer (A.F.E.A.F.) - Saint-Romain-en-Gal, 2006 - rassemblent en un seul volume les 16 communications du thème régional et les 28 du thème spécialisé, co-organisé avec l’Association pour la Promotion des Recherches sur l’âge du Bronze (A.P.R.A.B.). La question du territoire est la trame de fond de la partie régionale, suscitée par le dynamisme et les résultats de l’archéologie à Lyon et dans la région (du Mâconnais à la Loire et aux Alpes). Cette question est abordée par l’examen des sources écrites, d’utiles synthèses et la présentation de sites remarquables, en contexte d’habitat ou funéraire. L’enjeu du thème spécialisé était s’éclaircir la difficile question du passage de l’âge du Bronze à l’âge du Fer. Comment cerner les signes du changement, l’expliquer, en saisir le moment ? La plupart des auteurs ont choisi une fourchette chronologique large et se sont placés dans l’optique d’une évolution d’ordre endogène. Le critère du métal n’apparaît pas comme le plus pertinent. La fragmentation des faciès céramiques, la rupture de l’unité culturelle prévalant entre le XIIe et le VIIe siècles, des comportements nouveaux constatés dans les habitats et les pratiques funéraires : la situation est contrastée dans une Europe étudiée ici avec des exemples allant de l’Espagne à l’Italie, de la Grande-Bretagne à la Bohême. So dynamic was archaeology in Lyon and its surrounding region (Macon, the Loire Country and the Alps), that focus was kept on regional topics and that the question of «territory» was kept as the main line of research. The question has been tackled from many angles: written sources, enlightening summaries and synthetized works, presentation of quite remarkable sites, whether settlement sites or burial sites. The whole point was to shed light on the transitional phase between the Bronze Age and the Iron Age. What are the signs of a change, how to explain them, how to pinpoint them?…
