Inrap is currently conducting a preventive archaeological earthworks inwards the pump of the municipality of Sevrey, on asking of the State (DRAC Burgundy-Franche-Comté). Carried out equally business office of a mortal development, this projection is straight off arousing the involvement of the scientific community as well as considerably enriching noesis of Sevrey's past.

The archaeological heritage of Sevrey is of non bad wealth: previous excavations convey shown that since the halt of Antiquity, many potters convey settled hither as well as their products convey spread over a large south-eastern quarter of Gaul. This commune is ideally located nearly a clay deposit, the Saône as well as the Ferté forest.
In the 1970s, archaeological inquiry as well as surveys led to several inquiry publications on Severtine production. In the 2000s, 2 preventive excavations made it possible to document several kilns as well as to distinguish 2 ceramic types, the so-called "bistre" orangish pottery, produced betwixt the sixth as well as seventh centuries as well as a greyish pottery produced betwixt the ninth as well as 11th centuries.

Between these end 2 ceramic types at that spot is a chronological hiatus that the earthworks currently existence carried out past times Inrap is completing. In this sense, it constitutes a major regain for medieval Chalonnais archaeology, as well as to a greater extent than broadly for the entire Val de Saône. For the offset time, archaeologists are identifying ceramics inwards the context of production, maybe dating from the Carolingian menstruum (8th-9th centuries).

The site offers the possibility of studying the evolution of techniques as well as methods inwards purpose at this period. The archaeometric studies volition consummate the ceramic written report inwards gild to specify as well as refine the dating of this assemblage.

Beyond the kilns, Inrap archaeologists are also uncovering the whole production procedure of ceramics, from clay training to pottery turning as well as firing. If the buildings linked to the workshop convey since disappeared, the footing withal preserves the former traces of the posts of these buildings.
Fragments of ceramics as well as misfired pieces convey been discarded inwards many pits: they volition hold upwards valuable to ceramists for identifying shapes as well as techniques. Some rare tools bear witness to the activeness of potters on the site. Further inquiry volition assistance to sympathize the organization of the workshop as well as its integration inwards the hamlet of Sevrey.

For the offset fourth dimension inwards Sevrey, Inrap scientists volition acquit paleoenvironmental studies on the site existence excavated. Micromorphological (soil studies), anthracological (charcoal studies) as well as carpological (seed studies) studies volition stair out the touching on of these workshops on the Sevrey landscape inwards the early on Middle Ages.
