Résumé : International audience
Aujourd'hui, les traces de la présence amérindienne en Martinique constituent, en dehors des pétroglyphes de la forêt de Montravail et des pièces exposées dans les musées de l'île, un patrimoine invisible. Cependant, avant son invasion par les européens cette île a bien été pendant au moins 1500 ans terre amérindienne. Pendant dix années, entre 1995 et 2005, une équipe pluridisciplinaire internationale a ainsi travaillée à étudier l'occupation précolombienne de la Martinique. Ce programme initialement dirigé par J.-P. Giraud puis par Benoît Bérard a été menée dans le cadre d'un Projet Collectif de Recherche intitulé "Le néolithique martiniquais dans son contexte antillais" agréé par le Ministère de la Culture et de la Communication et financé par la Direction des Affaires Culturelle de la Martinique. La synthèse des résultats de ces travaux a été présentée au public martiniquais dans le cadre d'un séminaire international qui s'est tenu à Fort-de-France en mai 2007 avec le soutient du Conseil Général. Elle constitue le cœur de cet ouvrage. Elle a été complétée par un certain nombre de contributions permettant une mise en perspectives des résultats obtenus. Ce volume se divise en trois parties. La première fait un état des lieux de la connaissance sur les différentes cultures précolombiennes qui se sont succédées dans l'île au travers de la présentation de plusieurs sites de références. Elle se conclue par un regard historique qui grâce au récit de l'incroyable vie de Francisco Congo illustre les contacts entre populations amérindiennes, africaines et européennes au début de la colonisation et nous offre des informations inédites sur l'origine de la communauté des Caraïbes noirs de Saint-Vincent. La seconde partie de l'ouvrage présente un bilan des connaissances sur la relation entre les amérindiens et leur environnement naturel au travers d'études archéo-vulcanologiques, archéo-zoologiques et paléo-ethnobotaniques. Ce recours aux sciences paléo-environnementales offre pour la première fois la possibilité d'une réelle approche historicisée de cette relation. Enfin, parce ce que la division géopolitique coloniale et post-coloniale de l'archipel antillais n'a pas de sens appliquée à l'étude de son peuplement précolombien, il nous est apparu essentiel de conclure cet ouvrage par une ouverture sur les îles voisines en particulier la Dominique et la Guadeloupe. Cela nous fait entrer dans cette perspective archipélique qui guide aujourd'hui le travail des archéologues. Cet ouvrage est le premier volume synthétique sur l'occupation amérindienne de la Martinique publié depuis des décennies. Par son sérieux et son accessibilité il met enfin à la disposition d'un public de spécialistes et de non-spécialistes un bilan des dernières connaissances produites. Il répond en cela tant à un besoin scientifique qu'à une réelle demande sociale.

Résumé : International audience
Radiocarbon dating and "old wood problem" in the Antilles : the state of the artAmong the many effects that may distort the interpretation of radiocarbon dates are those for which the age of the archaeological event is different from the radiocarbon age of the sample or "14C event" age. This type of problem arises in many cases, notably in the "old wood effect”, and occurs in various regions of the world where very long-lived trees species are common. In the Caribbean anthracological studies indicate a very high frequency of some indigenous centuries-old species such as Guaiacum, Guaiacum officinale L. However the absence of tree-ring data in humid tropical zones deprives us of an accurate inventory of long-lived species and especially the assessment of their longevity. Here we present measurements which enable us to estimate the longevity of archaeological Guaiacum wood posts. They highlight a gap of several centuries between wood from the outer edge and the heart of the tree. This example illustrates the additional uncertainty that can result from dating archeological events when dates are realized on unidentified botanical species from which the area that was sampled is unknown. Another source of error could arise from the use of rot-proof dead wood as fuel if we take into consideration that major hurricanes can produce large amounts of dead wood that may be collected for decades, even centuries. To improve chronometric data used in archaeological interpretations, it is necessary to ensure the quality of the dating process by following a protocol similar to those used in other regions of the world based on a better understanding of the material to be dated by preliminary identifications of wood samples: species, anatomical part, wood moisture content (unseasoned or seasoned).
Radiocarbono y "problema madera vieja", que data de las Antillas: estado del arteEntre los muchos efectos que pueden distorsionar la interpretación de fechas de radiocarbono, destacan aquellos para los que la edad de la prueba arqueológica es diferente de la edad de radiocarbono de la muestra, o la edad del "evento de radiocarbono." Este tipo de problema se presenta en muchos casos, especialmente uno llamado "efecto madera vieja." Esto se refleja en diversas regiones del mundo donde las especies de plantas de mucha longevidad son comunes. En el Caribe, los estudios antracológicos disponibles indican una muy alta frecuencia de algunas especies autóctonas como el guayaco, Guaiacum officinale L. Sin embargo, la casi ausencia de datos de anillos de árboles en los trópicos húmedos, nos impide realizar un inventario exacto de especies de mucha longevidad y sobre todo la evaluación de la longevidad. Algunas de las pruebas presentadas aquí permitieron una estimación de la longevidad de de unos postes de guayaco de origen arqueológico. Ponen de manifiesto una brecha de varios siglos entre las partes externas y el corazón del tronco. Este ejemplo ilustra la aparición de una incertidumbre adicional en la datación de los eventos arqueológicos cuando no conocemos la especie botánica y tampoco la zona de la muestra en el árbol. Otra fuente de error puede surgir de la utilización de la madera muerta de calidad duradera como combustible ya que los grandes huracanes pueden producir grandes cantidades de madera muerta, que puede ser requerida durante décadas, incluso siglos. Para mejorar los datos cronométricos utilizados en interpretaciones arqueológicas, es necesario asegurarse de la calidad de las fechas, y por lo tanto seguir un protocolo similar a los utilizados en otras regiones fundado en una mejor comprensión de los elementos: especie, parte anatómica, humedad de la madera usada (verde o seco).
Parmi les nombreux effets susceptibles de fausser l’interprétation des datations par le radiocarbone, figurent ceux pour lesquels l’âge de l’événement archéologique est différent de l’âge radiocarbone de l’échantillon, ou âge de l’« événement radiocarbone ». Ce type de problème se pose dans de nombreux cas, en particulier celui dénommé « effet vieux bois ». Cette question est prise en compte dans diverses régions du monde où des espèces végétales très longévives sont fréquentes. Dans les Antilles les études anthracologiques disponibles indiquent une fréquence très importante de certaines espèces autochtones multiséculaires dont le gaïac, Guaiacum officinale L.. Cependant, la quasi absence de données dendrochronologiques dans la zone tropicale humide, nous privent d’un inventaire précis des espèces longévives et surtout de l’évaluation de leur longévité. Quelques tests présentés ici ont permis une estimation de la longévité de poteaux d’origine archéologique en bois de gaïac. Ils mettent en évidence un décalage de plusieurs siècles entre les parties externes et le cœur du tronc. Cet exemple illustre l’apparition d’une incertitude supplémentaire dans la datation de l’événement archéologique lorsque que l’on ne connaît ni l’espèce botanique ni la zone de prélèvement dans l’arbre. Une autre source d’erreur pourrait provenir de l’utilisation de bois mort de qualité très durable comme combustible, sachant que les grands cyclones peuvent produire d’importantes quantités de bois mort susceptible d’être récolté pendant des décennies, voire des siècles. Afin d’améliorer les données chronologiques utilisées dans les interprétations archéologiques, il apparaît nécessaire de s’assurer de la qualité des datations, et donc de suivre un protocole similaire à ceux utilisés dans d’autres régions basé sur une meilleure connaissance des éléments datés : espèce, partie anatomique, humidité du bois utilisé (vert ou sec).

The Blue Lagoon, also known as Blue Hole, was renamed after the 1980 film "The Blue Lagoon" with Brooke Shields, which was partially shot in the area. This natural spring fed lagoon in Port Antonio, Portland, Jamaica opens unto the sea through a narrow funnel. This is also the site of a famous Jacques Cousteau dive. Cousteau verified that the lagoon was not “bottomless” and in reality measured over 178 feet (54 meters) deep. The image shows a view of boats in the lagoon from breadfruit trees. Slide labeled Blue lagoon Jamaica.

Résumé : Pour la formalisation du lexique et de la grammaire de dialectes étroitement apparentés, il peut se révéler utile de factoriser une partie du travail de modélisation. Les soussystèmes linguistiques isomorphes dans les différents dialectes peuvent alors faire l’objet d’une description commune, les différences étant spécifiées par ailleurs. Cette démarche aboutit à un modèle de grammaire à couches : le noyau est commun à la famille de dialectes, et une couche superficielle détermine les caractéristiques de chacun. Nous appliquons ce procédé à la famille des langues créoles à base lexicale française de l’aire américano-caraïbe.
The task of writing formal lexicons and grammars for closely related dialects can benefit from factoring part of the modelling. Isomorphic linguistic subsystems from the different dialectsmay have a common description, while the differences are specified aside. This process leads to a layered grammar model: a kernel common to the whole family of dialects, and a superficial skin specifying the particular properties of each one of them. We apply this principle to the family of French-lexifier creole languages of the American-Caribbean area.
