Content:
The site at Canneville (Oise) has been known since the XIXth century, mainly through surface finds until the rescue excavation in 1974-75. It supplied the material which is studied here by D. Hamard. The few badly damaged sherds allow nevertheless Canneville to be placed between Phase II and III of the Chasseen of northern France. On the other hand more than 3 000 lithic artefacts make up an homogeneous flint assemblage. Statistical studies lead toa suitable descriptive method and throw light on the raw material management System. This book opens up the way to a definition of the lithic assemblage of the Chasseen of northern France and fits into a field of research which is presently proceeding towards a periodisation of this culture
