Présentation

My research axes focus on ancient harbour basins and coastal landscape evolution. Anciant harbour bassins are good sedimentary traps in order to understand the past of ancient port cities. My methodological approach is based on palaeoenvironment analysis with a pluridisciplinary team. Usualy, by corings, we extract sedimentary sequences (1) from harbour bassins (to get a local signal) and (2) from lagoons (to obtain a regional data). These cores are studied by geographers, historians, archaeologists, biologists, sedimentologists, geologists, geochemists and others... We get a lot of indications about past envıronmental conditions (for example geography of ancient coastlines and harbour configirations), as well as the characteristics of the harbour basins themselves (depth, life-span, rate of infill, phases of dredging etc..). We also work on relative sea level variations, fluvial inputs, tectonic movements and human inpacts. I have been involved in several ancient Mediterranean harbours in marine, lagoonal or fluvial environments. For examples : Alexandria, Taposiris, Avaris (Egypt), Portus, Ostıa, etruscan harbours (Italy), Utıca (Tunisia), Piraeus (Greece).
