Sommario/riassunto

This book brings together linguistic and archaeological evidence of South Asian prehistory. The author depicts and analyses the region, in particular the Indus Valley civilization, its links with neighbouring regions and its implications for social history. Each type of linguistic



data is put into its socio-historical context. Consequently, the book is both a description of the unique methodology 'linguistic archaeology' and a treatment of South Asian linguistic data.

Sommario/riassunto

Cet ouvrage propose de s'interroger sur l'appréhension et la qualification des espaces au sein du site archéologique. Les intervenants ont ainsi partagé leur réflexion sur les marqueurs matériels – artefact ou écofact – servant à l’identification des espaces au sein du site. Il est organisé autour des trois thèmes majeurs qui ressortirent alors : l’identification et la dévolution des bâtiments ; les espaces funéraires et enfin la spatialisation des activités. Nous espérons que le lecteur trouvera tant dans la grande diversité des périodes et aires chrono-culturelles représentées, que dans le vaste panel des sources et méthodes mobilisées, inspiration et sujet de réflexion.
