I. Étude préliminaire des principales structures
Authors: Marolle Clément 
Published: March 2010

The Michelsberg village of "Les Hautes Chanvières" is located on the alluvial plain formed by the confluence of the River Meuse and the River Chiers, on the "commune" of Mairy (Ardennes), 10 km east of Sedan.
The site is used as a quarry. Rescue excavations took place on a surface of 28.40 acres. The discoveries number 18 main buildings (out of which 7 are complete) and many outbuildings, which can be attributed to the Michelsberg culture. They are rectangular buildings, well anchored to the ground, with double-sloped roofs.
One of these buildings (13 m x 60 m) consists of an axial row of six large post-holes and of two side-walls set in deep trenches. It was subdivided, by pairs of oblong deep transverse pits, into four rooms each with a front entrance.
Two others (9.50 m x 42 m and 45 m) had the same shape, but the prints of the side-walls were superficial. The other buildings were smaller. One of them included a perpendicular aisle ; in a group of four, each one was made of two rooms only.
Among the numerous secondary structures, 102 cylindrical silo-pits (0.70 m to 1 m in diameter ; 1.35 m to 1.65 m deep) were re-used as rubbish pits. Important deposits of animal bones can often be found there.
The limits of the village are still unknown except for a triple paling foundation wall to the south, alongside a filled-up channel.
The site was also occupied in the Late Bronze III and La Tène I-II.
L'atelier de taille des Sablins à Étaples (Pas-de-Calais)
Authors: Piningre Jean-François , Bostyn Françoise , Coupé Jean , Constantin Claude , Delibrias Geneviève 
Published: March 2010

The flint working site of the "Sablins" in Étaples (Pas-de-Calais) includes mining pits and working areas covered by sandhill deposits.
The pottery presents similarities with the Villeneuve-Saint-Germain, Blicquy and Cerny groups products and the dates 14C indicate an early occupation which is the main one for this part of the site.
The flint artefacts come from the working places dug out over 475 m2. The production is not much specialized and its gives mainly flakes and rarely some roughly manufactured nodules. The technical studies and the reassemblage examinations allow to understand the "chaîne opératoire" process.
Later, the Middle Neolithic II settlement and then the Beaker-Early Bronze Age ones forsake, in this same place the mining and flint chipping.

Les parures du Midi méditerranéen du Néolithique ancien à l'Age du Bronze : origine et circulation des matières premières
Authors: Roscian Suzanne , Claustre Françoise , Dietrich Jacques E. 
Published: March 2010

L'étude des parures en matière minérale a porté sur un matériel très abondant : près de 35 000 objets recensés pour plus de 200 sites du Sud de la France.
Malgré une grande variété des matières premières (une quarantaine) on constate une nette prééminence de l'emploi du talc, puis du calcaire et de la calcite. Tous les autres matériaux sont représentés de manière plus sporadique.
Certaines roches présentes dans plusieurs régions ont été employées de façon préférentielle dans l'une ou l'autre, ainsi la fluorite en Languedoc et la bauxite dans le Var et la région de Grasse.
Des minéraux comme le talc ont pu circuler à plus ou moins longue distance depuis les Pyrénées et peut-être les Alpes. D'autres comme la turquoise et la variscite ont une provenance lointaine. Ce dernier matériau est le seul dont on ait des témoins directs d'exploitation à grande échelle au Néolithique, avec les mines de Gava (Barcelone). Il semble que la variscite ait largement diffusé.
Le choix des matières premières peut varier d'une région à l'autre et n'est pas uniquement lié aux propriétés physiques des roches et minéraux ou à la proximité des gisements géologiques.
Le Solutréen de Laugerie-Haute (Dordogne). Économie du silex
Authors: Demars Pierre-Yves 
Published: March 2010

L'immense abri de Laugerie-Haute est le site de référence du Solutréen. Les travaux de D. Peyrony et P. E. L. Smith ont montré que se succédait dans les locus est et ouest la séquence suivante : Protosolutréen, Solutréen inférieur, moyen, supérieur et peut-être final. Cependant, mon étude des collections des fouilles de F. Bordes dans ce site montre que cette stratigraphie est plus complexe, avec probablement des mélanges et une absence de parallélisme entre les séquences des deux locus. Pour moi, il est possible de distinguer : à l'est, le Protosolutréen (couche 31) et un Solutréen évolué (couches 30 à 21) ; à l'ouest, le Solutréen inférieur (couches 12 et 11 A), un Solutréen évolué différent de celui du locus est (couches 9 à 1) et des mélanges d'industries (couches 11 et 10).
L'étude des matières premières montre surtout l'utilisation des silex du Sénonien d'origine locale, notamment ceux que l'on trouve dans les alluvions de la Vézère qui coule à quelques mètres du site. Ces choix sont liés à des techniques de taille faiblement laminaires. Les feuilles de laurier sont surtout fabriquées dans le silex brun du Sénonien. Des silex exotiques sont également présents (silex du Bergeracois, du Fumélois, de l'Hettangien de Corrèze, du Cénozoïque du sud de la Dordogne). Ils ont été utilisés notamment pour la fabrication des pointes à face plane. La stratigraphie de Laugerie-Haute et, en conséquence, la chronologie du Solutréen sont plus complexes que ce qui était reconnu. Pendant le Solutréen, Laugerie-Haute a été habité par un petit groupe qui n 'occupait pas la totalité de l'abri. Comme les populations des autres périodes du Paléolithique supérieur, celui-ci parcourait un territoire limité au nord de l'Aquitaine.
Les groupes régionaux occidentaux du Rubané (Rhin et Bassin parisien) à travers les pratiques funéraires
Authors: Jeunesse Christian 
Published: March 2010

Within the western Bandkeramik (extending from the Rhine to the Paris basin) four regional groups can be defined on the basis of ceramic styles : north-west Bandkeramik, Neckar Bandkeramik, north Alsace Bandkeramik and south-west Bandkeramik. The whole area contains two separate funerary traditions : tradition I is confined to the south-west Bandkeramik (southern Alsace and the Paris basin) ; tradition II covers the other three groups. This division is present from the early Bandkeramik stage and can be traced as far as the east of central Europe. Tradition I occurs in Bavaria and lower Austria, tradition II in the Elbe regions (central Germany). In consequence one obtains two extensive bands, orientated east-west, which broadly correspond to the two major axes of Bandkeramik colonization. It is therefore likely that the distribution of the two funerary traditions derives from an early and profound division within the Bandkeramik. Yet the two traditions have also integrated, in their own ways, traits of mesolithic origin. Reflecting recent work on lithic industries, analysis of burial practices shows in fact that acculturation processes are under way very early in the Bandkeramik, probably from the "earliest" stage. Their development is deeply affected by the complex web of relations created by two competing ideologies : that of the Danubian colonists and that of the "indigenous component", the latter being a mixture of real hunters and groups undergoing neolithization. At the beginning of the Middle Neolithic there is a marked decline in the Danubian component ; in the Danubian neolithic funerary tradition III, which emerges with the Hinkelstein culture, an important place is given to symbols linked to hunting and the wild.

Contribution à la lecture des gravures symboliques de la région du Mont Bego, Tende (Alpes-Maritimes). Les petits personnages associés à un zigzag
Authors: Lumley Henry de , Echassoux Annie , Serres Thierry 
Published: March 2010

Quatre roches gravées de la région du mont Bego présentent sept fois la même composition : un petit personnage en position
d'orant, évoquant un prêtre, les bras dirigés vers une alvéole ou une petite plage rectangulaire symbolisant le dieu du ciel, d'où part un
zigzag ou une ligne régulière représentant à la fois la foudre et la source jaillissant du rocher.
Cette composition, remarquablement constante, évoque le prêtre intercédant auprès du dieu du ciel, « le principe primordial », maître de l'orage et dispensateur de la pluie, pour qu'il vienne fertiliser la terre.
Ne peut-on évoquer ici Moïse, accompagné du grand prêtre Aaron, dans le désert de Sin, frappant le rocher avec son bâton et faisant
jaillir l'eau en abondance pour abreuver son peuple et faire boire le bétail ?
III. Les armatures de flèches en silex de Chalain et de Clairvaux
Authors: Saintot Sylvie 
Published: March 2010

This study shows the main trends of flint arrow-heads evolution, from shore dwellings in Chalain and Clairvaux lakes. The data concerns 408 arrow-heads, dated from the 38th to the 17th centuries BC (calendar years). It is possible to determine the most important stages of this evolution :
• a regional tradition during Middle Neolithic II (NMB), characterized by simple types (piercing arrow-heads with a triangular shape). As soon as the 32nd century BC, the triangular and symetrical types issued from Horgen tradition take over and they are occasionally used until Late Neolithic II ;
• the inflow of southern influences (Ferrières), as soon as 3200 BC emphasized by the appearance of diamond-shapes and tanged arrow types ;
• the development of a new local tradition (Clairvaux culture), following the assimilation of external cultural influences, as persists the import of arrow-heads, between 3050 and 2750 BC ;
• the diversification of arrow-heads shapes (14 types) and the inflow of standard types which shows the intensification of exchange networks, taking place as soon as the end of the IVth millennium. In this way, the Chalain culture expands between 2750 and 2400 BC ;
• the standardization of arrow-heads (barbed and tanged types) could show the development of Bell Beaker influences, from 2400 BC onwards ;
• the likely late use of Bell Beaker types up to the end of Ancient and Middle Bronze Age.
Introduction

Published: March 2010

À 33 m d'altitude sur une butte calcaire, au sud-ouest du village de Fontaine, le tumulus du Pey (ou Pé) embrasse un très large paysage jusqu'à La Rochelle et l'île de Ré à une trentaine de kilomètres au sud, de l'autre côté de l'entrée de la baie de l'Aiguillon et donc du Marais poitevin.
Ouverte au sud, la plaine de Longeville, que le tumulus domine de tous côtés, forme un territoire très spécifique qui explique probablement son intense occupation dès le Néolithique ancien (La Tranche-sur-Mer et Longeville-Plage).
Le tumulus du Pey de Fontaine fut construit en deux temps. Un premier dolmen à couloir (voire deux monuments parallèles) fut entouré d'un cairn quadrangulaire à double parement. Dans un deuxième temps, le monument fut allongé et abrita un autre dolmen, parallèle au(x) précédent(s). Détruit dès le début du XIXe s., il servit de carrière avant d'être éventré lors de l'installation du mur de l'Atlantique au cours de la dernière guerre.
Les fouilles récentes ont mis en évidence son architecture primitive et permis la découverte d'un matériel archéologique abondant, très dispersé par les mauvais traitements anciens, datable du Néolithique moyen et récent (Peu-Richardien maritime). Des réutilisations et fréquentations au Néolithique final (Artenac) et au Bronze final sont attestées, mais également à l'époque gallo-romaine et du Moyen Age à nos jours.
Les sépultures chasséennes du site de Narbons à Montesquieu-de-Lauragais (Haute-Garonne)
Authors: Tchérémissinoff Yaramila , Martin Hélène , Texier Myriam , Vaquer Jean 
Published: March 2010

The site of Narbons (township of Montesquieu-de-Laurageais, Haute-Garonne), identified as a medieval area was excavated in August 1999 in the setting of preventive excavations carried out by the AFAN on the tracing of the A 66 freeway. Therefore, six pits are attributed to the Neolithic and four of them were containing burials. These burials set in holes of great depth, whose sections were principally oblong or sub-rectangular. It appears that these structures might be some well reused as graves because none of the skeleton was in contact with the funds. Hence, the primary destination of these stuctures could be reconsidered. The sediments on which they have been placed were extremely homogeneous except the filling of the single cylindrical pit which could be in relation with dumps at several layers. One raises three individual burials (an adult and two children) and two adults laid out simultaneously or in a very short time lapse and might be related because of an anomaly noted on the two subjects which could be of genetic origin (displasic thinning of the dome of the skull). All the individuals attested more or less inflections of the members, but the positions presented some variations. Osteologic and sedimentary data certify rather in favour of decomposition into a confined space. It's indoubtely the case for the two adults whose bones disposition implies a cover system. None item appears clearly as an offering, but some other pieces, dissociated, had been the object of particular settings. The majority of the fillings bang set up quickly, one cannot reject the possibility of a completely symbolic order relation between these elements and burials during the sealing of the structures. The radiocarbon datations added to the typology of artefacts in one case reveal that this group belongs to the Middle Neolithic. Three burials should be dated to the begening of Chassean, whereas one belongs at the end of this culture.

Conservation, traitement et consommation des produits végétaux dans la grotte chalcolithique de Foissac (Aveyron) : les données carpologiques
Authors: Bouby Laurent , Marinval Philippe 
Published: March 2010

Zwei Abschnitte der chakolithischen Höhle von Foissac haben archäologische Überreste von Früchten und Körnern erbracht. Im ersten Höhlenabschnitt, dem sogenannten Versturz, waren verkohlte Pflanzenreste bereits während der Ausgrabung mit bloβem Auge sichtbar. Von zwei Stellen bestand der Verdacht, daβ die Sämereien aus zwei dort zerbrochenen Gefäβen stammten die dieser Hypothese zufolge vegetabile Vorräte enthalten haben muβten. Wie die Makrorestanalyse zeigt, waren in dem ersten Gefäβ beim Schälen von Emmer (Triticum dicoccum) angefallene Sekundärprodukte (vor allem Hülsen) deponiert. Die Wuchshöhe der mitgefundenen Unkräuter erlaubt die Vermutung daβ die Ernte durch hohen Schnitt ausgeführt wurde. Das zweite Vorratsgefäβ enthielt einen Emmervorrat der aufgrund des hohen Anteils von Nagerkot wahrscheinlich bereits alter als ein Jahr war. Unsere Untersuchung weist darüberhinaus die Existenz eines dritten vegetabilen Produktes nach, nämlich eines wahrscheinlich aus einem kleinen Gefäβ stammenden Vorrats an Leinsamen (Linum usitatissimum). Das Auftreten von Lein ist interessant weil die Kultur dieser Öl - und Faserpflanze bislang für Südostfrankreich vor der Bronzezeit nicht belegt war. In dem Höhlenabschnitt, der vom Fluβ durchzogen wird, konnten in den unter Wasser gelegenen Fundschichten unverkohlte Pflanzenreste unter Luftabschluβ erhalten bleiben. Da die Probenwahl und der Ablauf des Siebvorgangs aber schlecht auf die Makrorestanalyse abgestimmt waren, kam es leider zum Verlust vieler Informationen. Die Untersuchung dieses zweiten Abschnittes erbrachte dennoch wertvolle Erkenntnisse zu einer Auswahl gesammelter Wildfruchte.

Tortuosity in Movement Paths Is Related to Cognitive Impairment
Authors: Nams V. O. , Fozard J. L. , Kearns W. D. 
Published: March 2010

Summary
Background: Using traditional assessment procedures, prior research demonstrated that deficiencies in gait and balance occur in the later stages of dementia.
Objective: We tested the hypothesis that an automated system capable of detecting path tortuosity (irregular movement) in elders would show that greater tortuosity was associated with greater cognitive impairment, potentially allowing early detection of dementia over time as tortuosity levels slowly increased.
Methods: An ultra-wideband sensor network using wireless transponders measured daytime locomotion to an accuracy of 20 cm in 14 elderly residents in an assisted living facility (ALF) as they traversed a shared living area while performing daily activities such as going to a dining area, conversing and watching television. Transponder location was updated at 0.4 sec intervals while in motion and revealed large individual differences in activity patterns.
Results: Fractal dimension (Fractal D), a measure of movement path tortuosity (directed vs. irregular or apparently aimless locomotion) was significantly and negatively correlated with cognitive status as measured by the Mini Mental State Examination administered to each participant at the study’s end.
Conclusions: Previous studies of locomotion in laboratory settings that have demonstrated gait variability increases with poor cognitive status have necessarily controlled various components of gait. The present results demonstrate that directional changes and other locomotion components can be studied by monitoring free movements in normal living settings over time. Implications for assessment and management of dementia-related wandering are discussed.
Overexpression of CXC Chemokine Ligand 14 Exacerbates Collagen-Induced Arthritis

Abstract
CXCL14 is a relatively new chemokine with unidentified receptor and undefined function. Recently, we found that CXCL14 is upregulated in arthritic joints in a mouse model of autoimmune arthritis, collagen-induced arthritis. To examine the role of CXCL14 in the development and pathogenesis of autoimmune arthritis, we have generated transgenic (Tg) mice that overexpress CXCL14 under control of phosphoglycerate kinase promoter. The results showed that CXCL14-Tg mice developed more severe arthritis compared with wild-type controls. The draining lymph nodes of CXCL14-Tg mice were significantly enlarged and contained an increased number of activated T cells, particularly the CD44+CD62Llow effector memory cells. In addition, T cells from CXCL14-Tg mice exhibited an enhanced proliferative response against collagen II and produced higher levels of IFN-γ but not IL-4 or IL-17. CXCL14-Tg mice also had elevated levels of IgG2a autoantibodies. These findings indicated that CXCL14 plays an important role in the autoimmune arthritis, which may have an implication in understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of rheumatoid arthritis in humans and, ultimately, therapeutic interference.
Associations Among Hip and Shoulder Range of Motion and Shoulder Injury in Professional Baseball Players

Published: March 2010

AbstractContext:The overhead throwing motion is complex, and restrictions in range of motion (ROM) at the hip may place additional demands on the shoulder that lead to injury. However, the relationship between hip and shoulder ROM in athletes with and without a history of shoulder injury is unknown.Objective:To (1) determine if differences exist in hip and shoulder ROM between professional baseball players with a history of shoulder injury and those with no history of shoulder injury and (2) assess relationships between hip and shoulder ROM in these players.Design:Cross-sectional study.Patients or Other Participants:Fifty-seven professional baseball players.Main Outcome Measure(s):Outcome measures consisted of hip extension and internal rotation, shoulder internal and external rotation, glenohumeral internal-rotation deficit, and history of shoulder injury. Differences in shoulder and hip ROM were assessed with a 1-way analysis of variance. Associations between hip and shoulder ROM were assessed with linear regression.Results:Nonpitchers with a history of shoulder injury had more external rotation and less internal rotation of the shoulder than nonpitchers with no history of shoulder injury. Glenohumeral internal-rotation deficit was greater in both pitchers and nonpitchers with a history of shoulder injury. The relationship between dominant hip extension and shoulder external rotation was significant for pitchers with a history of shoulder injury and nonpitchers with a history of shoulder injury.Conclusions:Shoulder injury may be associated with specific measures of hip and shoulder ROM, and hip extension and shoulder external rotation may be related in baseball players with a history of shoulder injury. Additional research is necessary to understand the specific mechanisms of shoulder injury in the throwing athlete.
A Qualitative Examination of Professional Role Commitment Among Athletic Trainers Working in the Secondary School Setting
Authors: Pitney William A. 
Published: March 2010

AbstractContext:Work-related demands can challenge an athletic trainer's professional role commitment for an extended period throughout one's career.Objective:To explore how athletic trainers perceive the phenomenon of professional commitment and maintain this commitment while working in a professionally challenging environment.Design:Basic, interpretive qualitative study.Setting:Secondary school.Patients or Other Participants:A criterion sample was used. Each participant had a minimum of 10 years of experience as an athletic trainer and self-identified as having maintained his or her professional commitment. Seventeen individuals (14 men, 3 women) with a mean age of 44.3 ± 6.8 years and 19.0 ± 6.7 years of experience in the secondary school setting participated in the study.Data Collection and Analysis:Seventeen total interviews were conducted. Interviews were transcribed and an inductive analysis was performed. A peer debriefing and member checks with 7 participants were completed to enhance the trustworthiness of the findings.Results:Four themes emerged from the findings: 1) professional responsibility, 2) rewards, 3) respect, and 4) rejuvenation. Participants explained that a strong sense of responsibility to their patients was a prominent feature of maintaining their commitment. Their professional commitment was influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic rewards and respect from others. The last emergent theme, rejuvenation, explained the necessity of having appropriate time away from the athletic training role to interact with peers and address personal needs.Conclusions:A strong sense of professional responsibility to both patients and the athletic training discipline is a central feature of professional commitment. Organizations, such as high school athletic programs, can play an influential role in helping an athletic trainer to maintain professional commitment by examining the intrinsic and extrinsic reward systems, assessing the work structure to ensure time to address personal needs, fostering effective communication, and addressing continuing education needs to maintain competence.
