ABSTRACT Within a radius of 350 m, the prehistoric mining site of Saint-Véran consists of a bornite mine (Ancienne Mine de Cuivre des Clausis), a boulder rock-shelter visited by man for ore exploitation (Abri de Pinilière) and a blast-furnace for copper ore treatment (Cabane des Clausis). The paper examines in particular pottery categories from the lower layer of Abri de Pinilière, datable back to the Chalcolithic or Early Bronze Age, which are also found inside the mine and are associated with slags and tuyeres from the blast-furnace. The comparative and technical study of the tuyeres points to north-eastern Italy and to eastern Europe and confirms that mining exploitation at Saint-Véran started in the Chalcolithic or Early Bronze Age.RIAS...
