L'habitat Predynastique de la Vallee du Nil

This study examines archaeological evidence relating to predynastic settlement along the Nile from the 5th to 4th millennium BC. Evidence from 37 sites is presented including the remains of domestic structures and small finds which allows the reader to develop a typology of eight different types of domestic structure. Using such evidence, and steering away from the more usual tendency to focus on funerary remains, helps to build a picture of domestic activities at these sites. French text; English abstract.
