Histoire d'un remplissage : Grotte Préhistorique d'Azé (Saône-et-Loire, France)
The prehistoric cave of Aze (Saône-et-Loire, France) is located in the Monts du Mâconnais, in south Burgundy (fig. 1). The upper part (Azé I), rich in paleontological and prehistorical materials, has been known for a long time (Argant, 1991 Argant, 2000, sous presse Combier, Gaillard, Moncel, 2000)....
