The objective of this program is twofold. It has a methodological orientation in Archaeometry and discusses anthropological and historical issues related to proto-historical periods. The first objective is to exploit, to confront and develop in a complementary way both archaeometric methods for determining the origins of iron products. Indeed, recent methodological development that occurred both in German and French archaeometry laboratories allows now to envisage provenance studies for ferrous and steel archaeological artefacts. This is a real breakthrough for the issues related to Iron Age societies. The second objective is, by applying these methods, to address two chronological periods (late Hallstatt / early La Tene) ofthe Iron ages and bring a renewed vision of trade relations and of the role of iron in each of the major changes occurring in these periods. For this, we address a specific set of archaeological material on which will be applied innovative methods for determining the origins developed in France and Germany.The archaeometric methods developed by the two teams are based on the determination of trace element chemical and isotopic signature of production areas. Thus in a first step, this signature will be followed in ore, archaeological slag and other wastes of the operating chains found on the sites of potential production areas linked to the issue; i.e. Lorraine, Baden Wuerttemberg, Senonais, Pays de Bray, West Bavaria. In a second step, we will analyze the chemical signature of two types of objects characteristics of these periods: bipyramidal ingots preferentially distributed in the geographical area of the northern Alps complex and tires of chariot burials representatives of ostentatious funeral deposit zones. Multivariate analyses of the results will allow reaching reliable provenance determining.

这个项目的目标是双重的。它以考古学的方法论为导向，讨论与原始历史时期有关的人类学和历史问题。第一个目标是以一种互补的方式开发、对抗和发展确定铁产品起源的两种考古方法。事实上，最近在德国和法国考古实验室中出现的方法发展，现在可以设想铁和钢铁考古文物的来源研究。这是与铁器时代社会相关问题的真正突破。第二个目标是，通过运用这些方法，讨论铁器时代的两个时间顺序时期（哈尔施塔特晚期/拉特纳早期），并对贸易关系和铁在这些时期发生的每个重大变化中的作用提出新的看法。为此，我们处理了一组具体的考古材料，将应用创新的方法来确定在法国和德国开发的起源。两个小组开发的考古测量方法是基于对生产区域的微量元素化学和同位素特征的测定。因此，在第一步，将对在与该问题有关的潜在生产区的地点发现的作业链的矿石、考古渣和其他废物遵循这一签名；即洛林，巴登-符腾堡，塞诺奈斯，佩斯-德布雷，西巴伐利亚。在第二步中，我们将分析这两个时期的两类物体特征的化学特征：优先分布在北阿尔卑斯山复杂地理区域的双金字塔形铸锭和代表炫耀葬礼沉积带的战车墓葬轮胎。对结果进行多变量分析将有助于确定可靠的来源。
