Prehistory [ modifier | Modifier and code ]

The occupation of the site is very old and goes back at least to the old Neolithic with the Graviers site which corresponds to the second phase of the Villeneuve-Saint-Germain culture, and the Sablonnière site corresponding to the last phase of the same culture [ ten ] (Middle Neolithic, Cerny group) [ 11 ] . The Richebourg site is also cited for the Cerny – Middle Neolithic group, with vestiges of incineration [ twelfth ] . These three sites in the Sablonnière, Graviers and Richebourg, succeeding north to the south along the current course of Yonne, form a vast necropolis which was spotted in 1955 by P. Parruzot. However, it has long remained ignored by the circles of prehistory; In the late 2000s, the most important monumental necropolis of the Cerny group currently excavated is still not studied or published exhaustively [ 13 ] .

The Middle Neolithic (around 4,600 to 3500 BC) is represented by many tumuli discovered by excavations, while these appeared until then as geological anomalies. The characteristic typology of these burials gave the type known as ” Passion » [ 14 ] .

On this previous occupation is located a more recent protohistoric site says The meadows hanged , which appears to be an important funerary complex of cremation and burial, where two excavation campaigns in 1996 and 1997 found a vast necropolis dating from the end of the Bronze Age (around 1200 BC J.-C. )) [ 15 ] .

In 2006, a funeral area from the Neolithic (4000 BC) at the end of the Bronze Age (800 BC) was discovered at a place called The sow hanged On the right bank of the Yonne, when enlarging a aggregate career [ 16 ] .
