Tavaux (Jura) : un matériel associé aux tombes d'enfants
Résumé
In the context of a research program devoted to Gallo-Roman burial grounds in the Jura department, the cremated remains of a soldier were discovered during the excavation of a family cemetery near the town of Tavaux. This grave has been dated between 40 and 60 AD. The same site also revealed a group of perinatal tombs, characterized by the burial of the remains under a roof-tile (imbrex). Some of these tombs also contained funeral offerings, placed beneath or beside the tile.
