The aim of my thesis project is to gain a better understanding of the occupation and use of high mountain areas during the Holocene. To do this, I am applying a coupled archaeological and palaeoenvironmental approach in the Ecrins massif, an area that is particularly sensitive to changes in agropastoral practices over time and to climate change. I am particularly interested in charcoal from archaeological sites and so-called pedological soils.
