ResumeLes methodes d'etude et d'interpretation anthracologique pour la reconstitution paleo-ecologique de la vegetation manquent souvent de rigueur. Une methode precise d'echantillonnage, excluant les foyers, et une analyse statistique de la fragmentation sont developpees ici. Le probleme de la reduction de masse n'est pas encore resolu. Sur ces bases, l'hypothese de representativite paleo-ecologique des charbons de bois peut etre argumentee. Des principes d'interpretation paleo-ecologique sont proposes.read more

Is Choice Acceptable? How the Anthracological Paradigm May Hinder the Consideration of Fuel Gathering as a Cultural Behaviour
TL;DR: Charcoal analysis is a powerful and well-established means of documenting past environments and the impact of ancient societies on vegetation as discussed by the authors, and the accuracy of anthracologized coal analysis has been evaluated in the literature.

Characterization of tree macroremains production in a recently burned conifer forest in northern Québec, Canada
Yves Bégin,Dominique Marguerie +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the production of plant macroremains was studied in a conifer forest twomonths after it burned in 1996 in northern Quebec, and the proportions ofvarious types of charred and uncharred pieces (needles, cones and wood) produced by black spruce (Piceamariana) and jack pine (Pinusbanksiana) were determined by sampling around individual trees.

Island survival: The anthracological and archaeofaunal evidence for colonial-era events on Barrow Island, north-west Australia
TL;DR: This paper investigated a rare instance of an archaeobotanical and zooarchaeological record for this colonial-era activity at Bandicoot Bay, Barrow Island, and found that the occupants originated from the north-west as part of coerced pearling labour and provided unique insight into the role offshore islands may have occupied in the management of this industry's labour forces.

A History of Deforestation as Indicated by Charcoal Analysis of Four Sites in Eastern Anatolia
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate what information is available from charcoals recovered by modern methods, and determine if it is possible to draw sound conclusions about vegetational changes which have not been fully recorded for the late Holocene in Eastern Anatolia.

The Controlled Carbonization and Archaeological Analysis of SE U.S. Wood Charcoals
Jack Rossen,James Olson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a systematic controlled carbonization of 21 common SE U.S. tree species to understand the structural characteristics of wood and its potential for charcoal identification. But no methodologies or general principles have emerged that recognize the subtle complexities of wood-charcoal identification.
