International audienceThe purpose of this study is not an overall presentation of the archaeology of honeybees in antiquity but a focus on the identification and interpretation of the products of the hive in archaeological containers within funerary contexts. The famous case of the Hochdorf caldron, which is well preserved and studied, is a beautiful but unusual example that overcomes the usual difficulties understanding the use of honey and mead in funerary rituals. Case studies with both botanical and chemical (ORA) approaches are presented and discussed to explain how difficult it is to interpret the archaeological meaning of data related to products of the hive.L’archéologie des produits de la ruche est un domaine scientifique qui reste...
