  • Archeology in the Fontainebleau Forest François BEAUX
    Archeology in the Fontainebleau Forest François BEAUX If you examine closely an archeological map showing all artifacts remaining from the ancient times in the South of the Seine-et-Marne department, you will see an « archeological hole » in the Fontainebleau Forest area. The dryness of the soil and the overall lack of water were in fact responsible for the very poor settlement rates of prehistorian and later humans in that area. Actually the late king Saint Louis (Louis the 9th), when speaking about this wood, said « my dear deserts ». Only some places nearby the Seine river, the Loing river and the water sources of the Ru de Changis were inhabitated. About the small hunting pavilion situated nerby the Fountain Belle Eau (or Belleau or Bliaud ?) we know nothing but that it was one of the ancient sites of settlement ; and that it gave birth to the future castle and later palace with the town around. However, the people dwelling around frequenly traveled through this area ; they left us many objects and traces on the stones proving their presence and showing that the forest (which was then called « Sylva Biera », i.e. « wood of Bière ») was not devoid of humans. PALEOLITHIC ERA (before 10,000 B.C.) Silex fragments and cut stones typical of the mousterian age with traces of cutting of the « Levallois » type have been found during a pedologic search in 1974 near the big cross of the Grand Veneur. Another fragment of the same type has been found at the Long Rocher site (figure 1). Those two artifacts are dated from the middle Paleolithic, i.e.
