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

Identification of woodland management practices and tree growth conditions in archaeological fuel waste remains: A case study from the site of Çatalhöyük in central Anatolia, Turkey
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of dendroanthracological analyses conducted on the anthracological assemblage retrieved from Neolithic and Chalcolithic occupations excavated at Catalhoyuk (central Anatolia, Turkey) are presented.

Plant use and local vegetation patterns during the second half of the Late Pleistocene in southwestern Germany
TL;DR: The analysis of botanical micro-and macro-fossils from the Hohle Fels Cave contributes to the limited floral record from this region as mentioned in this paper, with the presence of wood near the cave, as indicated by pollen, phytoliths and evidence from wood charcoal throughout the whole sequence of occupation.

TL;DR: The identification of the archaeological signatures of the controlled use of fire has important implications not only for the estimations of the origins and functions of the first fireplaces but also for the understanding of prehistoric technological development and resource use.

The contribution of anthracology to the study of the late Quaternary vegetation history of the Mediterranean region and Africa
TL;DR: A detailed Holocene chronology has been established for the northwestern Mediterranean area and in Africa as mentioned in this paper, where significant changes in the late Pleistocene and early Holocene charcoal spectra indicate large-scale climatic fluctuations.

Middle Holocene vegetation and human impact in central Sudan: charcoal from the neolithic site at Kadero
TL;DR: In this article, coal recovered from middens and graves in the neolithic site of Kadero, north of Khartoum, Sudan was analysed and it was shown that during the occupation period (5960-5030 uncal B.P.), a scrub and thorn savanna grew around the site.

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.

Nouvelle contribution à l'histoire de la végétation holocène des Grands Causses d'après les charbons de bois
TL;DR: In this article, a prehistorical analysis of charbons de bois provenant of vingt-trois localites prehistoriques permet de retracer les etapes du peuplement forestier postglaciaire des Causses.
